Hello, fellow reality TV fiends. In case it slipped past your radar, last night was the premiere of Season 15 of The Bachelorette.
This season, we're taking the journey of love with Hannah B., former Miss Alabama, current Roll Tide spokesperson.
Now, I'm the first to admit that every year I complain about watching The Bachelorette, but that then I end up invested in each season like it's my job.
chris harrison: the most dramatic season of #TheBachelorette yet! me:
BUT! After last night's premiere and meeting all the contestants — some I'm rooting for to win, some I'm rooting for to start drama — I actually am really pumped for this season!
Here's everything that went down during the premiere — the tears, the laughs, the drama, the scene with Hannah B. that made me her #1 fan — and all of the best reaction tweets of the night.
First, the drama! There was a contestant named Scott who, *gasp*, had a girlfriend back home. But before you fret, Hannah B. told him to get to steppin' because she was NOT putting up with his two-timing BS.
Hannah B.: You are such a jerk. ... There's no reason for you to be here if you're not honest.

Hannah B: Do you have a girlfriend? Scott: That was Monday, today is Wednesday #TheBachelorette

Hannah’s sweet spot is clearly calling dudes out on their bullshit AND I AM HERE FOR IT #thebachelorette
Next, the tears. There was a great contestant named Matt Donald, a beautiful farm boy whose parents and brother are deaf. He was nice, he was caring, he was sweet, AND HE WAS SENT HOME TOO EARLY!
Matt Donald: It's gonna take me some time to kinda recover from this.

You know who absolutely should've gotten a rose from Hannah? #TheBachelorette
9.
Did Hannah really just send home Matt McDonald, the farmer with two deaf parents and a heart of gold?! #TheBachelorette
10.
WHAT!! MATT DONALD GOT ROBBED!! SOMEONE GROCERY STORE JOE HIM FAST #thebachelorette
To add salt to the wound, Hannah B. picked a man named John Paul Jones (who's profession is John Paul Jones) over the much loved Matt Donald.

she really kept john paul jones. #TheBachelorette

“I, John Paul Jones, didn’t come all the way out here, and give up a promotion at John Paul Jones just to be sent home” #theBachelorette
13.
SHE REALLY WENT AND PICKED John Paul Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt over Old MacDonald!!! #thebachelorette
Before you get all upset, there were some laughs! In a scene where my front-runner, Luke P., was consoling Hannah B., she kept complaining about how cold she was, and my man did NOT A THING.
Luke P.: Hey, how are you feeling?
Hannah B.: [Laughs] I'm so cold.
Luke P.: [Does nothing, even though he has a jacket to offer.]
14.
Luke P still Wearing coat, meanwhile Hannah ...#theBachelorette

Hannah just said she was freezing TWICE and Luke P keeps his jacket on #TheBachelorette
16.
Hannah: I’m cold Luke: #TheBachelorette
17.
Hannah said she was cold and Luke didn’t give her his jacket #theBachelorette
BUT perhaps my fave part of the episode was a sneak peak into the season: a tearful yet strong-willed Hannah B. saying that no one can take her worth from her just because she's had premarital sex. #HerBodyHerChoice
Hannah B.: I don't owe you anything at this point.
18.
Hannah fiercely declaring "I have had sex and Jesus still loves me" is going to be the fence-jumping moment of the season. #TheBachelorette
19.
Me to whatever dumbass boy is trying to shame Hannah for having premarital sex this season: #TheBachelorette
20.
You don’t get to tell me what I get to do. And my husband won’t tell me what to do either. - Hannah G #TheBachelorette
21.
YOU KNOW WHO WOULDNT SHAME YOU FOR YOUR SEXUAL HISTORY #TheBachelorette
So there ya have it, folks! I already have some ~predictions~ about who's gonna get that final rose — which I'll probably be wrong about — but still excited to see Hannah B. embark on this journey! Let the tide roll!
Me before watching this season: Eh. We will see how it goes. I might not watch this season. Me after the first episode: #TheBachelorette
