HOUSEWIVES PREVIEW: Academic Debates For The New Millennium

There’s a new super-sized episode of Real Housewives of Atlanta on tonight (conveniently airing against the Project Runway premiere), and among the various jaw-dropping moments we’re sure to see, here’s a scene of Kim and her nanny (which she clearly needs on account of her busy schedule of smoking cigarettes and not having cancer) debating whether the word “sightseeing” is a verb. Linguists take note. This is the academic debate America has been bracing for.

  1. Oh my god. I just had to ask myself to make sure that sightseeing is indeed a verb. Shit tv does make you dumb. At least I can spell- cat. Less we forget last years debacle at the mexican restaurant with kim and dallas austin.

  2. and me the English major just realized that sightseeing is not just a verb. but an adjective noun, etc. my friend who is an English teacher is going to show this to her students to teach them grammer. glad she tried out her lesson plan on me. or I could have come off as dumb as kim. if that happened it would surely mean my death at my own hands.
