Every Friday we thumb through your comments from the most-talked-about post of the week and highlight each side of the argument. Check out the latest That's What You Said below and make sure to share your own opinion!

Earlier in the week we posted a preseason interview fight between Cara Maria and Abram, in which the two "Challenge" vets updated us on their current affairs. What started with an "I don't really have anything to say right now" from Abram ended with a whole lot of angry babbling about love and who-knows-what from the same guy. Tension was thick, which is what prompted many fans of the series to share their thoughts on this troubled twosome. Here's what some of you commented on Remote Control and MTV.com's "Battle of the Exes" page:

Remote Control:
"Cara Maria seems like a free spirit. I was with a girl that is a free spirit, and she was unpredictable and frustrating. It's better to just move along if you can't learn to appreciate that side of them." -- o_z_c_o

"Abram is in real pain because of this girl...I feel like he loves her much more that she loves him!! I kind of hate she is smiling to camera, and he looks like he's depressed. I do like her by the way, but this thing with Abram bothers me." -- Layla

"Whatever, Abram can do better. She's a little too young. Can she please comb her hair and take out all the red matted streaks?" -- displayname

Kristin Cavallari glows at Cirque du Soleil's 'OVO' earlier this month.

Earlier this week, we teamed up with the internets and collectively broke the news that former "Hills" star Kristin Cavallari confirmed she's expecting a child with her main squeeze Jay Cutler. The (re)newly engaged couple called off their wedding some months back, but have since reconciled, and, as evidenced by said news, gotten busy. As soon as webbers posted their baby blabber, everyone from "Exes" competitor Paula to Cavallari's old chum Audrina Patridge typed up cutesy 140-character messages to congratulate the mom-to-be on her little bundle-to-have.

And if you were curious how Cav kept the goss under wraps for so long, a recent tweet explains it all. Evidently she'd been using social media to throw people off her scent by feeding them false information. (Kristin, that's so unlike you!) Heidi Montag also tweeted a congrats of sorts, but it was quickly pushed down toward the bottom of her timeline by an excited note regarding the premiere of "The Challenge." We can't blame her; "Exes" is kinda awesome.

Check out what they and other MTV stars were up to this week:

After demonstrating his physical abilities--and strength of character--during a pivotal MMA match in this week's episode, there was no question that Daniel would be our latest "Caged" champ. Minden's golden boy rose to the occasion and made his community proud, including fellow fighters Wes and Danger. Here are even more reasons why Daniel snagged the honor this week.

He Ruled The Cage
Daniel had a lot to prove to himself after suffering a devastating knockout in his last fight. The pressure to win was compounded by the fact that the match was taking place on the four-year anniversary of his former girlfriend Hannah's death. Daniel was able to channel his emotions into a thrilling victory.

He Honored Hannah's Memory
A bonus scene revealed that Daniel requested a moment of silence for Hannah before his match, a gesture that meant a lot to her attending family. After winning his fight, he gave a moving interview and expressed hope that his big win could give new meaning to the anniversary date. Daniel's grace and eloquence during such a difficult time was impressive.

"Challenge" vet Wes has built a near-empire on drawing his fellow competitors into heated political debates fights early into the game, and he made record-breaking time on this week's "Exes" premiere. The notoriously loudmouthed redhead had barely dropped his bags next to the bunk bed of his choosing before getting into it with Camila as a means to shake up Johnny's confidence.

Neither Camila nor Johnny took take the bait, and Wes and Mandi were effectively handed a ticket to The Dome every time Jomila had a say in the matter. Wes said banding together the Rookies was a surefire way to oust Johnny as top dog in the house, but after pissing off Team Teal, no one wanted to side with the guy who shakes the hornet's nest like it's an Etch A Sketch. Wes' alliance gave it a good run on "Fresh Meat 2," but it looks like he (and Mandi, by association) might be on an island this time around.

+ Tell us what you think--do Wandy have a prayer in this game, or have they already completely screwed themselves?

The last time we saw Tyrie and Jasmine together on a "Challenge," they shared a passionate night 25 minutes together, which, depending on where you get your gossip, may or may not have included the bumping of uglies. But their interest in one another was short-lived, and when Jas learned her teammate for "Battle of the Exes" was Ty, you could almost see the steam spewing out of her ears.

With some good money on the line, it's imperative that these two forget the past and move on. (Or, they can just entertain us with their bickering.) Check out this sneak peek of Wednesday's all-new episode, where Jasmine tells Naomi that her partner is still totally into her. 'Course, Jas thinks it's an A and B conversation, but Tyrie is in the other room eavesdropping on their little girl talk. Pissed with her erroneous accusations, he calls her a few fun expletives, and then she returns the favor with a body-check.

So, you guys are still here to win, right?

Applicable cliche: Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore.

On last night's "Jersey Shore," Seaside Heights' finest four females were in the market for some extra special talent to perform at a surprise birthday party for Pauly D and "The Situation." While this would amount to the hiring of a throwback cover band or fire-eaters for most, it meant strippers with sock-specific obsessive compulsive disorder for Sammi, JWOWW and the meatballs. And if you want the best exotic dancers coastal New Jersey has to offer, you go to one man, and one man alone: the Wizard of Ass.

The man with a knockoff soccer jersey and an apparent fetish for wheelchairs got a little too into the nitty-gritty of his employees' performance. By the time he suggested routines that included belt slaps and the pulling down of pants, Sammi was noticeably uncomfortable, but social media users were eating "The Wiz" up. The dude who pleaded the fifth when asked if he slept with his payroll shot up to the No. 1 trending topic on Twitter and stayed there for awhile.

JWOWW thought he would've been better off directing pornos, but here's what fans of the "Shore" had to say about the Wizard of Ass:

"I believe the title Wizard of Ass is handed down through the generations like Counts and whatnot in Europe." -- @H_Ram

Jenelle's been on edge the past couple of weeks, partially due to the fact that she had to stop smoking pot, but we couldn't believe our eyes during the most recent "Teen Mom 2" when she wound up getting into a violent fight with her housemate Tori. Following the episode, fans of the show jumped onto Facebook to share their thoughts about Jenelle's anger issues. Here's a sprinkling of the advice some of them left for her:

"My advice for Jenelle is to look at herself and learn to love herself and see the inner beauty that is in all of us. Forgive others and forgive herself so that she can move on to better things like raising her beautiful son, Jace. Seeing a therapist is great when necessary and I believe, like many other viewers, that she needs it. Also, she must not give up! There's hope for everyone." -- Jaz

"If I had the chance to tell her anything: There is no rule book in parenthood so you are bound to make some mistakes...but the key is to learn from them." -- KayCee

"You know what...I can relate to her anger issues. Have her anger issues gotten out of hand? Absolutely. But that doesn't mean she is a bad person...she is damaged. She does need help, as many people in this world do. I think most of us have said and done things that we regret...love makes us do crazy things. I'm not going to insult her like most people seem to enjoy doing. I hope she gets help and can feel more in control of her life." -- Tracy

Don't you EVAH dare touch Sammi Sweetheart's hair extensions, because if tonight's episode of "Jersey Shore" is any indication, girl will go loco.

Whilst enjoying a lovely couples' night out at Bamboo, Sam and her silky tresses were assaulted by a female clubgoer, who, apparently didn't know who she was messing with (guess she didn't watch the Miami season). The "Shore" cameras suddenly went all herky-jerky in a rush to capture the catfight, which quickly devolved into full-on coed melee. Needless to say, it was pretty awesome.

One person who wasn't laughing? Sammi, naturally, who spends an average of two hours each day perfecting her do before heading out in public. She tells Kenny Santucci in the below clip from our latest "Jersey Shore Hook-up" that as soon as she felt the tug, she flipped on her bitch switch. "I never had somebody disrespect me in that way, just to pull on my hair for no reason, so, of course, I turn around and throw my drink, and it just went downhill after that."

+ Watch the video to hear more from Sam about the sneak attack, as well as her natural instinct to defend herself hair, plus tell us in the comments whether you think she held shiz down!

We had a gut feeling--actually, it was more of a sneak peek--that Vinny's "Jersey Shore" departure wouldn't be permanent, especially if his friends had anything to say about it. The housemates, who successfully executed Operation GTGVB (Gym, Tan, Get Vinny Back) during tonight's episode, may have realized it was important for him to rest up at home, but they never fully understood the true nature of his anxiety and how much goes into the recovery process. We can't blame them for prematurely busting through the doors of his Staten Island residence with a demand to bring him back--they missed the guy like crazy, and so did we--but in our final "Jersey Shore Hook-Up with Vinny" interview below, he admits their surprise visit possibly came a few days too soon.

It's not as if Vin didn't want to spend the summer with his crew, and he was incredibly flattered by their kidnapping plot, but his form of anxiety isn't something that disappears the moment he hugs his mother and eats a homemade meal. Heading back to the beach wasn't as easy for him as it may have looked. "I mustered up enough strength just to get through the door of leaving my house and into the car...When I went back, it was still hard."

Watch the video to hear more from Vinny on his shaky return to Seaside and how he coped for the rest of the season, plus check out the second clip for an explanation on his "Let Go, Let God" chest tattoo.

It was a one-man exodus that no one could explain.

On the heels of what Mike believed to be the suckiest birthday ever, he quietly wandered out into the unknown last week. Where he went and why he left was uncertain, but when boss-man Danny called attendance on tonight's episode of "Jersey Shore," the rest of the house drew blanks when attempting to report on Sitch's whereabouts. He was gone like the wind of an American classic.

Thankfully, Mike returned home unscathed, but not without a slap on the wrist from his roommates. In a clip from this week's "Jersey Shore Hook-Up," host Kenny Santucci asks the lone wanderer to explain his vanishing act. He says he was in a terrible mood (you know, cuz he's a Cancer and that's what happens, astrologically speaking) and just needed time to himself. He drove around to clear his head for a few hours and eventually came back. "Sometimes I'll just abracadabra," he says of his Jimmy Hoffa-like disappearance.
