[li]Speaking of Bobby Jon and Jamie, did anyone understand a single word either one screamed at the other? Were those even words at all? They seemed to understand each other, at least.[/li][/QUOTE]

I’d swear that BJ was yelling “THAT’S NOT NICE!!” That really put Jamie in his place.

Really? You made more sense out of what he said than I did. For all I know, he was yelling “FRESH HOT MICE!” Or “WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALT!”

It sounded to me like they were pumping each other up. I thought it was just bizarre.

Bobby Jon’s agent must have told him to get some good camera time.

Dammit, that’s what _I_ came here to say!!!

But “That’s not nice!!!” is pretty weak, even for somebody with the IQ of a spoon like Bobby Jon.

I thought he said “WHAT’S MY NAME!!!” I was waiting for him to say “WHO’s YOUR DADDY!!!” next.

Seriously, are you trying to destroy my keyboard by causing me to spit coffee on it?

Was anyone else surprised by the way the second immunity went? As far as I recall, this is the first time players have had to vote blind - in ll previous challenges they knew who was immune and voted accordingly. It would have been interesting if Rafe had picked Brian and Bobby John ended up getting voted off by one vote. Would have made for some warm feelings back at camp.

I assume that everyone was aware of this twist and this explains the way everybody was talking nice about Brian. “Yes, we all love Brian. We’re certainly not going to vote for him tonight. No reason to give him immunity.”

It looked very much like a homosexual mating ritual to me.

Oh, no you di’n’t!

Honestly, I turned to **supervenusfreak** when that happened and just said, “I’ll NEVER understand straight men…”

Those are not not straight men.

They are conflicted.

I can help…

I rewound this hilarious fight at lest 10 times to try and hear what was going on, and I am very sure that Booby Jon screamed “THAT’S WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR!!! THAT’S WHAT I LIKE!!” I have no idea why, even after living in Mississippi for 9 years. But it sure was fun to watch!

That’s kinda what i heard that made me think it was like two guys lifting weights in the gym trying to pump each other up.

If I had never seen the show, and tuned in at that very moment, I would have thought the two neanderthals were on the same team.

I’ve been thinking about this way more than it warrants. Did you ever have one of those moments where you get so excited you yell something, and then inside think “That was _stupid!_ Why did I say that?”

I think Bobby Jon doesn’t have that inner voice.

I didn’t understand what they were saying while watching the show, but when I saw that clip again on either “The Soup” or “Best Week Ever”, I turned to my husband (in disbelief) and said, “Did he just say ‘That’s not nice’?” It just didn’t “go” with all the yelling and chest-butting, but it made me laugh.

In a previous episode (pre-tribal jumble), Danni did use Gary’s real name; she told somebody he was Gary Hogeboom. I think everybody is just in denial that he might have such a silly name.

I think they voted Margaret off rather than Judd because they went into TC thinking they needed strength more than stability or sanity. Besides, that’s what ballast is for…

I THINK, but can’t confirm that Bobby Jon was deliberately getting in Jaime’s face to mock him for his show-boating. I think he was trying to convey “you like being screamed at? here, I can scream too! Does this make me more of a man?” and then summed it up with “that’s not nice.” But still… bizarre…
