The Norwegians are coming! - RHNJ

As I have mentioned in previous posts, Teresa is one of my favorite "characters" on the RHNJ.  But lately, I've been starting to dislike her.  She's kind of a bitch (hmm some people say I am too). But all of the other castmembers are completely and utterly boring, so I think I have to like her. Actually, I think I like her because we have something in common - a poor grasp of the English language.

Both of my parents were born in Italy.  My mom's English is perfect (probably better than mine), but English is my Dad's third language.  His English is still awesome, but he makes mistakes.  For example, he says "mices" "fishes" and "womens."  I think he does this on purpose because he knows it drives me crazy. Anyway, I blame my parents for my inability to speak proper English (while I'm at it, I think I'm going to blame them for my decision to become a lawyer).

Teresa also has immigrant parents.  Many times I've heard her say "ingrediences."  Okay, that's pretty bad. Even my parents don't say that.  WTF is wrong with her? Didn't she go to grade school? Why doesn't anyone correct her?

In one of my favorite scenes, Teresa started talking about the Nor'easter that was coming.  She said the Norwegians were coming!  This led me to realize that Teresa does not have a poor grasp of the English language, she's just a moron.

Don't blame her parnts being immigrants. Theresa is as dumb as they come. Her marriage to joe guidice proves it.
