I don't know what I want to happen more, that Jinkx said that unprovoked, or if she actually said a Red Bull and the producers were like "we can't have you say any brand names" so she said that in response.
I love how Jinkx in every other episode is at least semi-professional and put together, but the moment there is a design challenge she admits to herself there’s no way she’s going to win it and goes batshit crazy instead.
can we have more design challenges please? like semi professional jinkx is still hilarious and we love her but theres just something bout jinkx losing her mind in a sewing challenge that speaks to me
That's me every night before the deadline of every final project of every major subject, every semister of art school. There's something about stress mixed with hysteria that keep the creative juices flowing, to the benefit or detriment of your project.
Honestly, I did make-up school, and god I was the same. especially with one exam where I had to paint a 6 feet by 6 feet canvas fabric to be a backdrop in which I would seamlessly have to put someone with lines crossing over from the backpainting to the canvas and all that. while it was hot as balls that week. I got mental at that point
My heart went out to Jinkx but it was just so damn funny that my brain didn't know what to do so I experienced a bizarre combination of hysterical laughter and nervous panic simultaneously, which brought me back to the time I had to start over a scenic painting project in college...it was a journey.
i got in a car accident and ruined my painting for my college design class and couldn’t stop laughing and crying at the same time so this really brought me back to that feeling😭
YES! I remember I was in a composition exam for music once and had to write a piece of music in a few hours. When I realized I totally messed it up, I'd to start again and when into this weird, stressed out state where I was incredibly giddy, giggly, and nervous. It was weird.
this entire part really made me just relate so hard to jinkx but made me fall in love with her even more. she was the first drag queen to introduce me into drag and drag race in general so seeing her back just makes my current self and younger inner self just so happy
Before Jan was safe, the producers throwing design challenges at Jinkx Monsoon was the OG systematic breakdown of a persons psyche. I’m so glad Jinkx came back so they could do it again.
The design/ball episodes are always a bit of a chore for me to get through. But Jinkx's chaotic energy and disdain for said challenges are really the best part of both episodes...especially this one. She better become our Queen of all Queens.
This humanize jinx even more. Knowing where you are weak and languishing in it makes you seem even more self aware. Why pretend when you know full well what you’re strong and not strong at. It takes maturity to know that being good at everything is a myth and if you’re doing something out of your comfort zone, you need to not pretend and just go through the process, even if its messy and emotional af.
I loved it when she goes Oh no Oh no, then the camera caught Shea saying oh no too! It was so cute! The friendship they all shared was really sweet! Sewing is definitely not Jinkx’s forte. Thank goodness she’s sweet and talented in other things! ❤
I have had the extreme pleasure of seeing Jinkx perform in Provincetown, MA on a number of occasions over the years & it was nothing short of PERFECTION! Has always been & will continue to be, in my opinion, the BEST drag performer ever! Continue to soar Jinkx! ✌️❤️😊
it would be great without the added (and confusing) sound effect of her breaking some sort of glass. The Snoopy impression made more sense and was a better transition imo 😋
I remember this episode I almost pissed my pants! Still one of my most adored Queens! I've seen a lot of people argue and throw a lot of shade at her claiming a lack of talent. The only thing she lacks and as always she will openly admit is the challenge of the design challenge!😢
