"There’s a small, small part of me that thinks yeah." = repetiton: a word, phrase or idea repeated in a piece for emphasis.
"I would never want to be friends with her and I would probably have her pegged for a complete bitch who talks about everyone behind their backs — even the “friends” she has coming over to enjoy spreadable cheese and the lettuce that’s hanging out of the grocery bag."=Hyperbole-An exaggeration that is so dramatic that no one would believe the statement is true.

"The perfect cheese for an awful relationship" is an article that expressed the dislike and unhuman nature in a boursin cheese commercial. The ladys first response after she finds the cheese is “Was she blonde?” I dont see how this relates to buying cheese. Talar explains her confusion about why the color of someones hair would dictate an item that a man buys. The mans reactions during the whole commerical are very monotone and kind of bold. “Yeaaahhh.” It shows his sarcasm, and kind of saying that he always picks out the right things. Talar then explains and questions why the wife was asking these usless, and off-topic questions. "“What’s with this cheese?!” She seems appauled in the commerical (it seems like these people arent very friendly with eachother.) Talar strongly shows her hate and disgust about this commerical. She compared the husband to Kris Humphres, who we all know is a low-life and lazy husband, that only married for the money, and fame. Using these strong comparisions makes Talars' oponions quite easy to see and unserstand.
