The BC is the one FC personality that I absolutely can not stand. Their
other personalities vary in competence and annoyance, but BC is far
above the rest on the disgust scale.

I don't know what it is about her. I want to like her. Maybe because she
is fat. Maybe because she is fatter then me! Hehehe. And a lot of the
food she makes does look good. But there is just something about the way
she talks that strikes me as odd. She doesn't seem to show much emotion in
her voice or something.

Huh. I thought the general consensus here was they liked her.

I think I saw her show all the way through once. Horrible! Then I just
happened to be on that channel when it came on again. Couldn't turn the
channel fast enough.
