Toni is _on_ the island. She’s off the _boat_. I have no interest in any of these self-absorbed twits. It’s just fun to watch them accuse _each other_ of insincerity and game-playing. ---

They’re all such drama queens – none of them has done anything particularly conniving or manipulative. They just read everything anyone _else_ does as conniving and manipulative. –Cliffy ---

For once since the show started I finally liked something Anthony did! I thought it was hilarious when he got Toni all pissed off. She is so friggin fake. I don’t know whose going to win but I’m thinkin Darin and Jeanette, possibly Tomiko. ---

I laughed my ass off every time they switched between Toni freaking out and Anthony laughing. I don’t really care for Anthony, but he was _so_ freaking funny for starting that fight. Remember when Toni and Jeanette were whispering about Toni giving Jeanette money? At first I thought Toni was just trying to convince Jeanette to take a cut if she got voted off. However, Jeanette is now saying that Toni made the offer if she’d say she wanted to get voted off. And I hated how Toni kept saying that she sacrificed herself for Jeanette. When she was sitting with Darin, and he asked her if it came down to her or Jeanette, she admited that she’d rather win it. I used to like Toni, but now I can see that she is as conniving as the rest. (Except for Tomiko, Darin, and Jeanette - any of these I’d be happy to see win) ---

OMG! That was one of the funniest things I have ever seen on television! I wish I would have recorded that part so I could watch it over and over. I used to like Toni but she has turned into a two-face, phony, lying, psychopath! Can you believe how she went completely ballistic on Michael for something she was doing herself and how the lying little winch went off on Jeanette for telling the truth about her? CRIPES! Could someone also send Mel some Exlax to help with that obvious case of constipation? I can’t believe the show is almost over, but Temptation Island II and the new series Pasadena are coming soon! HOOO YAAAA! ---

Oh…my…God… The “interviews” are priceless, especially Greg (fantasy date: “sex, dinner, sex, then girl leaves and I hang out with my friends”) and Darrin (what animal best describes you: “a male praying mantis–I’d sacrifice myself for her pleasure…”) ---

Goodness gracious: Anthony says… > [@](#): > > I don’t want to move in bed…I don’t want them to know what it is they have in store for them… Well, Big A, I can guess, and I bet it doesn’t involve an orgasm, you lazy bitch! Lisa says… > [@](#): > > My good friends wonder why I’m still single and describe me as someone who is attractive, intelligent, outgoing, funny, adventurous, ambitious, responsible, optimistic, introspective, and open-minded. …and neurotic, shallow, insecure, and obviously overcompensating for low self-esteem. Toni says… > [@](#): > > [Ideal Fantasy Date] Pretty Woman. Fling to another city for a show and dinner. Then enjoy the night together in ultimate passion. Then the next day, it repeats. Toni’s gay? Or is she a hooker? Hmmm. I thought the Real World and Road Rules had the best combination of America’s stupidest people. Then I saw this show. And I love it anyway. 🙂 ---

See **Badtz** , when they were showing them whispering, that’s exactly what I thought. That Toni had told Jeanette she’d give her a cut if Toni won. It made me feel bad for Jeanette because when you’re poor, (trust me - I’ve been there) the last thing you want is everyone saying, “Oh, you’re so poor. Let me help you out.” Then, Jeanette tells everyone their conversation when she was in the hot seat, and I was as shocked everyone else. But, I think we need to remember that their conversation could have been edited, and we don’t know exactly what was said or offered. I wish Jeanette (or Toni) would just say, “Hey, the whole freaking conversation is on tape, let’s review it.” Then we’d all know the truth. But I am leaning towards Jeanette telling the truth, because I just don’t like Toni anymore! 😉 ---

I’m content just knowing that she’s a **bug-eyed FREAK** who scares me to death. For the love of pete, if I saw her on the street, I’d at least cross to the other side. But I’d probably hide in a Dumpster. Admittedly, I haven’t watched the show from the beginning, but I’ve hated her from the first show I watched. OH! I forget to mention earlier, I met Nathan, Lindsay, Janet, David, Rebecca and Stephen from RW7. They gave a talk at my friend’s school. David wasn’s supposed to be there, but he was a surprise guest, and all the girls fell in swoons around him as he walked to the stage. It was pretty cool. I went to the after-party thing (if you can call it that) and talked to most of them. I avoided David since I was afraid he might bitch-slap me or something. Carry on, carry on. Did you know the same people who produce RW/RR produce Love Cruise? Things that make ya go hmmm… ---

Guys, I think Toni meant she’d like a date like Julia Roberts and Richard Gere in the move **Pretty Woman**. Remember, he whisks her off in a plane and they have a romantic date. Not that her ideal date starts with a “Pretty Woman”. ---

SPOILER ABOUT FINALE: Really, don’t read if you don’t want to know… Enough space yet? Maybe a little more… Okay, here… I hope that’s enough space. Okay, I guess I’m glad that Darin and Melissa won. I didn’t like them any more so than I liked any of those people. However, throwing Gina and Adrian in at the last minute was the dumbest thing I ever saw. “Hey, you were all voted off the boat…but now you’re in the finals!” Yeah…whatever. ---

I agree about Gina and Adrian however I thought they might win because they didn’t have all the problems that the other couples did. I am glad that Darin and Mellisa won. So who thinks they will become a real couple? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/love-cruise-the-maiden-voyage/84894.md?page=1)
