Survivor 9/26. Who's going to go tonight ?

OK, so I missed the first half watching Friends. But eating that dead and stinky squid on the beach? Are these people that desperate for food or have they never been to a fish market? I saw no massive illness, so I assume it was okay. But still.

I also loved the girl biting it hard on the lotus, and when the guy walked right into the pole. [Xander]Slapsticky goodness[/Xander].

Agreed. :smiley:

rofl - how did he react? I was too busy laughing myself, and I missed it. That was by far the most ridiculous bikini I’ve seen on Survivor. How does she expect to compete in that thing?

:pukage: - just to hear her talk about that little plan made me realize just how clueless she really is. She thinks she’s attractive, strong, and good under pressure. She aint! I have a feeling that next week’s tensions completely revolve around her narcissism.

slacker right after she wiped out, there was a really quick shot of HP wincing/cringing/grimacing - a whole lotta body language effectively conveying “Oooh, that’s gotta hurt/what a tool!”
Revived my faith in the subtle genius that is Jeff Probestick.

Incidentally, Ghandi & the Granny would make a killer title for a sitcom.

:cool:

By the way, why weren’t those tools ready to dive off the lotus as their team members were swimming back with the petals?

They were like lounging on the freaking lotus until Anal Probst called their names to go next!

Stooooopid!

:smack:

The hot girl’s still there! Her tribe is yet to vate anyone off!

Depends on what she’s ‘competing’ for.
I can’t believe it didn’t come off when she dove, err…, flopped into the sea.

I’m not gonna miss that one spew again. Twice, and once in recap was enough!

Elf6c, I missed the hand on the thigh. When was that? Was it Gandhi’s hand on Deep Voice Guy?

Damn, I gotta learn their names, or their Dope-given nicknames.

So much for Acme. That guess didn’t make sense even. I guess if they don’t get an early feed. . . .

Yep. She seems to be under the mis-impression she is hot stuff. They were lying around yapping as a group, and her hand was resting high and inside enough to look questionable.

#1. Stylize - welcome to the boards! Love the “little old lady from Pasadena” comment.

#2. Slacker - I love you for using my nickname - Fat Albert - for the big guy. You kick ass. You, too, Elf6c.

#3. Some of those breast shots just about made me smoke a ciggie.

#4. I thought the same thing, LolaCocaCola! Someone would get back and the next person would suddenly realize that they had to do something and THEN they’d get up. Sheesh!

Damn, next week is going to be good! If the Chewing Gum tribe loses another immunity challenge, it is going to be BAD. If Fat Albert and Ghandi are fighting, they may want to get rid of one of them just for some damn peace. My guess is that they’d go with Ghandi. I liked the ‘sharp as a marble’ comment someone made.

Okay, the chick who was sleeping outside (was that Tanya?) - What the FUCK was that huge Insect/Animal/Creature THING by her head? If I woke up and saw that thing, I’d be screaming bloody murder.

I keep staring at Mr. Spice Channel and all I can see him doing is gay porn. (Not that I’ve seen it - just his face screams SOFT CORE at me.)

Tibs.

Thanks Tibs!

It was the firefighter- Elizabeth, I believe. One of the two people (along with Jed- the dental student) self-selecting themselves for an early departure. I believe that was some sort of crab- looked like a hermit crab to me.

Late night Cinemax was his forte. Went with the claim of “used car salemen” as career though. I guess “fake hetro humping actor” was less embarassing then used car salesman. Tres cheesy tatoo though.

Oh and Helen- your not in Special Forces- you are just support staff. Ditch the T-shirt and attitude unless you have earned them.

:rolleyes:

Tibs,

I’m not sure which one you’re talking about, but that one guy, the used car salesman, did do some soft core porn. Hmm, someone knows their porn here. :wink:

THere must have been some rule about not moving or somethng because I was thinking that too. Why don’t they get set so they’re ready to go? They can’t be that dense. Wait a second, that was TittyGirl’s team…nevermind.

I can’t wait until next week to see what really happens between Fat Albert & Giardia (LOVE that name, cichlidiot!)

I’m sure that BoobGirl will lose her bikini top at some point—strings that small cannot support the boulders she’s lugging around.

Can’t wait to see baby Jan voted off…my god, is her strategy “I’ll win by crying all the time”?

Stephanie (of the first night skinny dipping). And it looked like a hermit crab to me too.

At least Jed had the sense to crawl under the shelter when it started to rain. But it’s really dumb of him and Stephanie to be distancing themselves from their tribemates. From what they’ve shown, those two never join in with the group work, they’re always doing their own thing. Bad move. And king dumbass Knobb seems to be trying to join them.

I like Shii Ann more and more each time I see her. Not only beautiful, but pretty sharp too. I hope she sticks around for a while.

And yeah, next week looks like it should be a lot of fun.

One last rant about the Cave Dwellers’ (for you mst3k fans) kickoff strategy: Tanya would eventually get over her tummy upset, and get stronger. Giardia and Granny, meanwhile, are at the peak of their game, mentally and physically–sad to say.

It looks like Porn Guy knows how to play the guitar–you think he might’ve spent some time during the day figgerin’ out the chords to “Happy Birthday to You”. I have no idea what he was playing when the others were singing.

Hmm, I saw it differently. Is Tanya young? Sure, she’s younger than some of her tribemates, but big deal. If every tribal council just voted off the oldest person each time, you wouldn’t have to play the game. Just check everyone’s birth certificates, and announce the winner. Obviously, if Jan’s age really is a strike against her no matter what else happens in the game, then she must be doing something right that you can’t see, 'cause she’s still there.

Was Tanya strong? What show were you watching? She’d eaten a handful of beans in 6 days! She puked constantly. They made her ride in that palanquin or whatever the hell it was in the reward challenge because she could hardly stand.

Sure, she hadn’t cost them an immunity challenge, but she hadn’t done much to win one for them either. And they may have felt that she lost the reward challenge (they were blindfolded and couldn’t really tell what was going on). I’d be thinking that the eating challenge is up next (curry chicken? pad thai?), and puke girl isn’t going to be an asset for that one. Besides, shouldn’t they really care more about who will help them in the future, not punishing who hurt them in the past?

Tanya seemed to be the right one to go. She didn’t seem too surprised about it, and almost seemed glad. I don’t think it was a “dumb” choice, since she probably was the weakest physically and wanted to be there the least. I wouldn’t want to be the player who stuck his neck out too far to lobby to get a more popular (i.e. Jan) member voted out.

Yeah, she did cry. But is she lazy? I don’t see it that way.

She paddled that little canoe for six hours while Helen led them into cove after cove looking for the water. Helen even said early in their odyssey “we agreed to take turns going to look for the water”. That’s actually a good plan. It doesn’t make sense to both go check for water and discover it’s not there. And knowing those two, they’d just lose the boat and then be really stuck.

So Jan stays with the boat. And we get this great shot of Helen looking pissed because she finds Jan relaxing in the water. Well, duh. What would you do if you were staying behind, try to regain some energy, or run laps of the beach and do calisthenics?

There seems to be a lot to criticize about Jan (what’s with those pigtail thingss?), but resting when you get an opportunity to rest and theres nothing whatsoever constructive that you can do equals “smart”, not “lazy”.

The funniest thing was when Jan and Helen were out looking for water and the rest of the Chewing Gum tribe was so worried that they had been gone so long.

Ummm, guys, they’ve got a four person production staff following them in a power boat. Don’t worry about them.

I don’t care enough about Survivor to get all analytical about it anymore…suffice to say that I’m a little puzzled by last Thursday’s offering. I’d think that they’d at least follow up on what we say in round 1…geez, we hardly saw Robb at all this time.

There’s a little cause for concern in Team Orange (I’m not gonna bother trying to remember the actual names or make up snarky nicknames), but it’s not a crisis just yet. Remember, the producers are taking a far more active role in shaking things up then they did in the past. If Orange loses again, count on someone taking drastic measures to even the odds a bit. I also wouldn’t rule out someone on Purples side becoming just too damn annoying (it always happens) and taking an immunity challenge just to get rid of the distraction.

One final note…if you’re totally grossed out by the sight of people eating squid, you’re watching the wrong show, bubba. :slight_smile:

I’m not so sure that was smart, Ferrous. Various critters that bite will likely be attracted to the same place. Just give them time to find it and get the word out! :slight_smile:
