Who the fuck tries to start a construction business in the middle of a housing slump?! Fucking idiots.

Plus, those people might look better than they did before, but they still look weird - almost alien.

Two of them could meet on the show, then have a baby. It happened and I am sure that could possibly be the ugliest baby ever. The parents were hideous before the makeovers so the baby didn't have much of a chance at even being slightly normal.

Some people don't deserve anything although they feel they are entitled to everything. These morons probably bought brand new expensive cars and lived the life of Riley. I bet they'll blame the show for not paying for a finance class. Some people keep making mistakes and blame everyone and everything but themselves. Looks like welfare just got more clients.

I want Ty Pennington to come in and sledgehammer that house to fine dust. Then lead a parade of past Extreme Makeover recipients -- all in their wheelchairs and breathing machines with diseased children -- to laugh at them.

..and after Carlson Kressley made you wear pink socks and white loafers, what happened?

Well, I was beaten senseless on the street and my girlfriend left me.

Not quite the same thing is it? The EHM show basically hands these people a huge chunk of equity, not cloths or a new "do".

For how long are these 'adults' supposed to be hand-held through their lives though, Flute?

Gup, you caught that same key line in the article which I did: ""What's going to happen is instead of keep paying my mortgage, I'm going to take my money and not pay my mortgage because I'm being harassed," said Harper."

Yeah - it's 'harassment' to have someone trying to get payments out...

"What's going to happen is instead of keep paying my mortgage, I'm going to take my money and not pay my mortgage because I'm being harassed," said Harper.

I wonder if she considers it harassment when the bank asks her to make her payments? I'm thinking about trying that tactic - I'll just tell the bank to stop harassing me and keep my money. I'm going to tell the feds that when they ask for those pesky taxes too.

Apparently they sent their kids to college with the college money they recieved and then tried to sell the EHM house for $900k because it was too much for them. I think they were just bad financial planners. EHM should include financial advising in their contract.

They probably built a $400,000 spec house and can't unload it.

I'm willing to bet they invested in not working, traveling, and spending money on whatever crap caught their eye. Lottery winners have blown millions, so this isn't anything new. It's still pathetic, but not new.
