I don’t like Howie. I can tell right now he’s going to be having a lot of confessional time. And the weatherman joke was lame and obviously rehearsed. Beau is cute. I don’t see Marcellus in him at all. Everyone else is blah. ---

I was disappointed that it was broadcast at 4:3 on HD, even though Ms. Cup-Showing gets to watch everything at 16:9. ---

I wanted to point out there are 2 from the Dallas tx area 2 from Miami beach fl (and both are waitresses) 2 from other places in FL which may or may not be near Miami Beach, FL 2 from Chicago, IL 2 from LA CA area plus 4 others that don’t match up that easy, 2men/2women, or 2Eastern US/2western US or 2 in their 30’s/ 2 in their 20’s ---

> [@Wolfian](#): > > Steve (security guy) decided that being a “ninth grade philosophy teacher” was less threatening that being a security guy? Get over yourself! You’re a mall cop! “Ninth grade philosophy teacher?” I hope someone asks him a serious, but basic philosophy question (ie name some philosophers of Locke’s era) and his head explodes. Good grief, I was thinking the same exact thing. Like shrinkage monitoring is going to have people coveting their PB&Js. I’ve got say, this season it seems more like I’m watching a foreign film with all the subtitling going on. I’m sure as people start leaving, this’ll happen less since there will be more room, but it’s getting a bit annoying. ---

I think I like Ivette, but I don’t want to jinx her. Last year, I liked Nakomis. ---

Philosophy teacher? Is he serious? ---
