While Tommy Paul was taking care of business in the first round at Wimbledon, his influencer fiancée Paige Lorenze was doing what she does best, posting content.
This wasn’t just any content, this was content from her Nantucket bachelorette party.
Nothing says Screencaps on a Tuesday in late June like an influencer’s Nantucket bachelorette party. The party portion of the festivities were shared by the tennis WAG on Monday and, this goes without saying, came after a traditional bachelorette fitting.
You can risk going through with a bachelorette party without a proper fitting, but that’s not a risk Paige was willing to take, and you can’t really blame her.
This sort of activity prior to the party might seem unnecessary to some of you out there, but that’s only because you’re the sort of person who doesn’t have your own bikini bride collaboration before walking down the aisle.
Her sophisticated tastes are going to exceed what you might think is normal. That’s perfectly fine. She’s chasing greatness and with that comes certain sacrifices. One of those is any sense of a basic “slap a sash on the bride-to-be and have some drinks” bachelorette party.
It’s our expectations of how she should prepare to tie the knot that has Paige going above and beyond, not hers. She would love a fun night out with the girls where she could let loose. It’s simply not possible. Not in the summer of Taylor Swift’s wedding.
A lot of credit goes to Paige here. She hasn’t missed a beat. She took her bachelorette party and turned it into a learning experience for all of us. That’s special. Congratulations are in order.

Hey SeanJo,
Long time reader, first time emailer. Thanks for toeing the rubber for Joe and team this week – bench strength is a sign of great management and critical for success in any organization!
Love seeing the grilling episodes of our brethren here, so adding some of my own – my version of surf & turf from our vacation condo here in Clearwater Beach, FL. A sliver of the Gulf of America visible in the background, prime filets on the Coyote electric, doing its usual fantastic job (not sponsored but highly recommended!).
As Texans, we’re closely watching this screw worm infestation as it travels north from Mexico, hoping the Department of Agriculture can figure out more effective means to stop it, but already having an impact on beef prices – I paid $60/pound at the local meat market for these bad boys. Wondering if other readers are seeing similar price increases yet?!
Keep up the great work, thanks for all you do.
SeanJo
Hey Steve, thanks for the support and thanks for sending me your meat. I’m happy you decided to get in on the action. I couldn’t tell you if the prices have been impacted in my area. Not because I’m a wealthy guy or anything, but because I do almost none of the grocery shopping, and when I am sent out to pick things up on occasion, I don’t pay attention. I never have and it doesn’t look like I ever will.
Thankfully, you don’t have to rely on me for an answer. The Screencaps community should have some answers for you. Keep sending me your meat.

Hey Sean,
It was a loooong time ago and I honestly don’t remember if I ate the velveeta and peanut butter sandwich. I most likely did as I grew up hearing my mom telling me “I was a child of the Depression.” She used to rinse out baggies and re-use them. Also, I can’t tell you how many empty plastic butter containers were in the cupboard because you never knew when you might need one.
SeanJo
Thanks for the update. If you did eat the Velveeta and peanut butter sandwich, it must not have been that bad. You would think it would be a traumatic experience that you never forget if it was completely disgusting.

Regarding the reader and his velveeta/pb sandwich:
For many years,I have been telling anyone who will listen (not very many) that cheese makes any sandwich better- yes, even a PBJ. I have always been a cheese lover and prefer sharp cheddar on mine. I have tried many different varieties: Danish havarti, american, swiss, etc., and encourage y’all to try different ones until you find “your” PBJ/cheese.

Sean Jo,
Great job of relieving Joe as always. Awhile back someone was having problems getting the imbeds to open on their phone and someone mentioned how to fix it. I believe it was a phone setting. I just got a new phone, it’s an android,, and I am having that same problem. If any reader(s) out can help out I would appreciate it.
Happy 250th America and Happy 4th of July to all!!!!

Can someone please do an article about how the PGA and world golf rankings are a complete joke? They use points from tournaments 3 years old and once a player like Scheffler has amassed them, we have to listen to and read the media continually refer to him as the world #1 or the best player on the planet.. I have news for you.. He’s not.. There are several golfers that are playing better than him right now; and it’s disingenuous to not consider their efforts in current form. I’d say there are 3-4 players that are actually more deserving as we speak.. Ranging from Wyndham Clark , Matt Fitzpatrick, Tommy Fleetwood; I’d take any of them on a bet over Scheffler. Then again, it’s the same media pushing the narrative that say the Rams were better than the Seahawks last year after they lost to them 2 out of 3 and the Hawks won the Superbowl..
SeanJo
I can’t guarantee that anyone will, but I’ll pass it along.

Three items’
1- your Screencaps babes are the best. Love Joe’s writing but you just have a more discerning eye on the babe content. Top of the cap to you, sir
2- took a quick trip to the Gulf of America with the wife this week, Clearwater Beach. Wonderful area. Yes, touristy, but not as overrun by price gouging business owners at places like Virginia Beach or Myrtle Beach. Love the free state of Florida. Keep it going. While here I got my picture in front of the Hulk Hogan statue, did a jet ski tour, and got $3 Budweiser drafts at a bar across the street from the beach during a Brazil – Japan world cup game, where the bar was apparently a Brazil supporters site. Top notch.
3- as a native Michigander, of course I’ve spent many a family vacation in Central Florida. But since the algorithms read my location and knew I was in Florida this week, a story popped up about an abandoned and redeveloped theme park Boardwalk and Baseball in Central Florida. I remember going to that on a family vacation and remember two things, they had a baseball themed roller coaster (I think it was the screwball and it was a Corkscrew knockoff) and they also had the most awesome attraction ever invented. They were basically small tanks that you shot tennis balls at other tanks in an arena and tried to score points. You had one person as the driver and the other way the turret gunner. Does anyone remember what these were called? I think my family did 3 or 4 sessions on these things during our one visit – my dad and I absolutely loved them. Wonder where those ended up? Ukraine? Any other abandoned theme parks by the screencap community memory hole? I remember the short lived “Autoland” in Flint that would have been awesome if they had figure out the technology for the Epcot Test Track Chevy ride and the Mall of America roller coaster back then, but alas.
Keep it rolling as we press on to the Nations 250th! I’ll be prepping the brisket for my inlaws grill up north Michigan this week.
SeanJo
Thanks for reaching out Brandon. Boardwalk and Baseball sounds very familiar to me. I’ll have to ask my parents if we visited that park when I was a kid.
I don’t know if this one is abandoned or not, but I always wondered what happened to a Flintstones amusement park I went to when I was a kid. I think it was in Canada.

Good day to you sir! Thank you for toeing (towing?) the rubber for the SC community. We appreciate it. I’m no soccer fan. But I am in love with the videos of people from around the world just being in awe of our everyday lives. This country is the best. Stopping for gas on the way home from work? Some dude from Europe has a video in envy. Too hungover to cook? Brazil found chic fil-a. Gotta just run out and grab a few things? Walmart and Costco are blowing minds. Texas BBQ is reshaping the world. I think it’s time us as Americans unleashed our greatest weapon upon our wonderful guests. Hank Williams JR’s Are you ready for some football. That song would probably solve so many geopolitical problems. Nobody’s going to war with a country that’s ready for some football!
SeanJo
I agree. The World Cup visitors being blown away by all that is America is pure entertainment. I also agree that now that they’ve experienced a lot of what we have to offer, it’s time to drop Hank Jr. on them. I think they’re ready for it.

That’s a wrap for Tuesday and that’s also a wrap for June. July arrives tomorrow whether you’re ready or not. I still have several emails to get through, which I’m going to dedicate some time this afternoon to catch up on. Keep them coming sean.joseph@outkick.com.
Send your meat. Send your bizarre food combinations. Send your abandoned amusement parks. Send it all. You can also follow me on Twitter and over on Instagram if you’d like. Feel free to slide into the DMs.
