Personally, I would have sent myself if I was the chief. The tribe needs the protein, and all deserve the reward. The people I would trust would be the people who saved me a sausage or two. ---

> [@Minnie\_Luna](#): > > RussHole must be a shape- shifting reptilian. First they control the world through nefarious means and interbreeding with the elite, now they are on _Survivor_. Can’t they give us a break? Seriously. He looks way more alien than reptilian to me. Can’t you just see some … creature … peering out through those oddly light-colored eyes? **shudder** ---

> [@CapnPitt](#): > > Every time I see Shambo now, I think of **jayjay’s** Nemean Poodle comment. And I laugh and laugh. Thanks man! Heh. No charge! I actually missed this week because I was dogsitting at my mother’s house all last week and, frankly, I’m not very enthused with this season. There aren’t really all that many truly entertaining contestants this time. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/survivor-10-15/513984.md?page=1)
