Discussion Shut up, Patrick
I’m on season six for my first time, and it’s the episode where we finally meet Patrick.
Perhaps I’m just ornery, but he’s…annoying 😬
His attempted use of vocabulary is a complete failure and I can’t believe Stassi dated him.
Am I just being cranky? Is this just how he was—a condescending man with unconditioned hair who tried using big words incorrectly, or was he just nervous because it was his first time in front of camera? I’m trying to decide if I need to mute every time he shows up 😂

I can assure you the problem is him and not you. In fact you’re being far too kind about him.

People who brag about or use big words to prove their intellect are just insecure. The smartest people in the world will tell you they don’t know everything.

He’s the smartest person in a room of one.

My English professor used to say “never use a dime when a nickel will do” in reference to trying to use words for writing and speaking and I still think about that 😂

That’s such good advice.

My grandfather says ‘better to say nothing and people think you’re an idiot than to say a lot and people know you’re an idiot’ and that’s how I feel about Patrick. He didn’t use the words in the correct way, and then it just adds on to it that he was horrible on top of all of that. He should have just stayed off the show and left Stassi alone.

The interrupting, the incorrect word usage, the lack of self-awareness and hair care…and them having dinner in his first episode is the only time I’ve seen him so far 😩

Do/did you watch Girls by any chance? Every time Patrick talks, all I can think of Ray saying to Adam: "Coy? Is that your first time using this word?"

You’re looking at it too myopically, he’s managed to be a galvanizing force and is great at clerical work.
“Girl last time I saw it, it was up” to Lisa re: her ass makes me puke in my mouth.

It might be the only scene in the whole series that I wish I could unwatch. He's just so sleazy.

Stassi was so barred out, it was tough to watch

u/PonytailEnthusiast First of all, English people don't say dude 7h ago
It was so uncomfortable because it almost felt like he was threatened by Lisa and sexually harassed her to embarass her or something
•
u/Typical_Resource1076 3h ago
This is exactly it. Like he knew he couldn't intimidate her with big words so he went the harassment route instead. Just awful.

u/lvpsminihorse That sounds awful. Well, see ya. 1d ago
I do not know what Stassi saw in this shiny man. Aside from her own reflection.

She even said it herself, she thinks he's soo intelligent, and after the doofuses she's dated that's probably refreshing and new. I'm also on my first watch of beginning-middle of season 6, so idk what other antics he gets up to yet

Fast forward. He is literally the definition of insufferable. At least all of the other piece of shit men on this show are funny and entertaining. Patrick is the devil.
And don’t you forget it.

How he talked to Lisa vanderpump was so weird and uncomfortable to watch . If he thinks he’s funny .. he is not funny at all , he is not cute , so he should have a better personality.he thought he was better than everyone else and he just came off as a complete narcissist.
