Jersey Shore Season 3 Finale

http://media.thenewschronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/deena1.jpg

As usual, Desperate isn’t having another new episode until this Sunday.  So instead I’m going to write about the ever-so-famous reality show, Jersey Shore.  If anyone is unfamiliar with the show, its about eight Italian-American (although Jenni, Snooki, and Ronni aren’t fully Italian) aka “guidos” and “guidettes” living in a shore house in Seaside, New Jersey.  We basically just follow their entire summer on the shore whether they are at the gym, tanning or out clubbing at Karma.

This is the finale of their third season.  The first season took place in Seaside, New Jersey during the summer of 2009, the second season took place in Miami during the winter of 2010, and the third season is back to their Seaside house the summer of 2010.  To an outsider from watching this show, it might seem stupid and pointless—how can people just want to watch these people’s lives for an hour once a week?  As meaningless as this show seems, many people—myself included—find themselves addicted to the show and start to like or dislike the roommates.  Now that it’s the end of the third season, a Jersey Shore “newbie” would be very confused if they were to watch this show randomly for the first time with their names and lingos.  Here’s the breakdown:

Girls left to right:
Sammi: No nick name really although she tries to call herself “Sammi-Sweatheart” but no one calls her that

Deena: One of Snooki’s friends from back home and joined the roommate this summer after former roommate Angelina left mid way through the first two seasons.

Jenni:  Aka “J-Woww”
Nicole: Aka “Snooki”

Guys left to right:

Paul: Aka “Pauly D”, “DJ Pauly D”
Mike: Aka “The Situation”

Ronni: He's dating Sammi
Vinny: The youngest guy

Creepin’: Looking for a hookup at the club

Grenade: An ugly, heavier girl (so insulting)

Gorilla: A muscular, tan, guido.

Landmine: An ugly but thinner girl (again, so insulting)

The shirt before the shirt: A wifebeater the guys wear before they are about to go out.

Tee-shirt time: When they are about to leave, they change out of their wifebeaters and into their tee-shirts they’re going to wear that night.

DTF: Down to f**k.  Used when they are finding girls to bring back to the house from the club.

DTS: Down to snuggle. 

FTD: Fresh to death.  Looking good basically.

GTL: Gym, Tanning, Laundry.  The schedule they make for themselves to follow.

GFA: Grenade Free America.  Avoiding clubs and public places with grenades.

MVP: Mike, Vinny, Pauly.  When the single guys want a night out themselves looking for girls.

There will be a season 4 coming soon, but this time they won’t be in Miami or Seaside—they will be in the none other but Italy.  Can’t wait!
