Survivor: Palau - Week 2

Cafe Society
21

Funniest Reward Challenge, ever!! We were just dying laughing at the antics.

Tom sure looks like he’s in line to win, except the strong guys are always targets sooner or later. Note to Kim/Jeff: hook up an lose. Amber got lucky. All the other “couples” on the show got voted off, as they should have been. You might as well walk around with a sign on your ass that says “I’m in a strong aliance.”

Did anyone else thing that Ashlee might have been Jewish and wouldn’t eat the shellfish because it wasn’t Kosher?

22

I’ll nominate this week’s reward challenge for a Worst Ever Video Editing In A Reality Show (Ever) award. That was just godawful.

23

That’s what I thought too. How could she not be hungry?

Tom sure is pretty… until he opens his mouth.

Jim Bob/Jimmy Jo, or whatever the hell his name is, sure does have a temper.

24

She’s a Mormon.

25

I guess Ashlee was simply the semi-annual “nice looking girl who gets sick” contestant, even though we didn’t see any puking out of her. Damn shame, but not as much of a damn shame as the hot cop Jessie from Survivor: Africa.

26

i just saw it. I liked the part where they show Coby psyching himself up for the walk across the moving barrels, takes one step forward and wooooshh, right into the ocean. :slight_smile:

Ibrahim is definetly the strong, silent type.

27

Oh yeah…wonderfully huge and yet perky. Best. Boobies. Ever.

I still haven’t really decided who to root for or against yet. It was a vaguely interesting episode. I thought Angies turnaround was impressive.

28

I’m inclined to agree with you here, on all counts. One thing I think I am seeing with these three is that they all respect hard work. That may be why they get along so well. Hopefully they will be around a while, because I like them. A lot.

Oh, and to everyone who was on the Tom love train last week (including Miss Alli over at TWoP, who said “if you’ve ever wondered why people have really inappropriate affairs with people in positions of authority, I would direct your attention to Tom”)? How did I miss him last week? Oh, wait - nerd lust. But Tom is now running a close second. Not your average eye candy, those two, but oh! So intriguing!

29

That Tattoo Babe(Angie??) is causing the camera crew and the editors fits with her itsy bitsy teenie weenie mis- matched bikini :eek:

30

You can say that again. And big props to my little Dolphin Boy for retrieving the flint–and nearly collapsing a lung while doing so.

31

Ahem. Our little Dolphin Boy. (Right? Please?)

32

You got it. I’ll take Mondays, Wednesdays, and alternate weekends. :slight_smile:

[QUOTE=watsonwil]
Once again, I give you the less anticipated, highly derivative RICH RANKINGS! (K or U for Tribe and Last Week’s Rankings in Parentheses).

FORGOT TO FILE A 1040- I guess you couldn’t outwit everyone!

Wanda,Jonathan,Jolanda- Wanda’s still singing in the clubhouse. I’ll bet she’d do a wicked “You’re A Grand Old Flag!”
Ashlee- (U/MERGE): I thought she was reading cue cards when they used her for the show’s setup narrative. NEVER be the only tribemate NOT to do something.
EATING BEEF JERKY- You’re still playing, but you’re praying for a tribe scramble!

Willard- (K/Beef Jerky)- Only winning saved you. You sat out one challenge and got saved by Firefighter Tom on the other. At least you have that lucrative 60 Minutes job to fall back on!
Caryn- (K/Merge)- Koror’s complainer. May go before Willard.
Kim and Jeff- (U/Merge)- I didn’t know Boston Rob. Boston Rob was NOT a friend of mine. But you sir are NO Boston Rob.

WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT A MERGE?- Middle of the pack players, the lotta ya! (Also a holding spot until people develop a personality!
Ibrehem- (U/Beef Jerky)- I hesitate to move him up as he hasn’t voted with the alliance yet. But I think he’ll last a little while. He darn sure isn’t go to say anything to piss people off!
Bobby Jon- (U,Beef Jerky)Big, Dumb and Strong. Seems like he is always disagreeing with the group’s choice. I THINK he voted correctly last night though…
Katie- (K/Merge)- You can be mediocre at challenges. You can be bad at challenges. But if you are TERRIBLE at challenges you become a target (unless you are Chris from Vanuatu.)
Jennifer-(K/Merge)- I had a notepad and jotted down names every time someone new did something noteworthy. Your name is not on my paper! Still pretty, though.
Gregg- (K/Mohawk)- You drop a spot because your name wasn’t on the list either.

HEY! LOOK AT HIS MOHAWK-You might make the merge, but you’re grimacing from the jury row!

Angie- (U/Beef Jerky)- A big move up. Total redemption. Just get a bigger bra and lose the pit hair!
James- (U/Mohawk)- The editors burned you a bit. You said “We’re NOT going to follow a leader!” and then the scene cut to the bunch of you scratching your asses and wondering what to do next.

LOOKING FOR A BIG TOM TO ENGLISH DICTIONARY- Big Tom has spent more combined days on the show than anyone. But he didn’t quite grab the brass ring.

Stephanie- (U/Merge)- She’s in great physical shape and she is ABSOLUTELY running the show at Ulong. She may need a shuffle to go further because her numbers are dwindling.
Coby- (K/Mohawk)- Has weaknesses but was smart enough to at least be on the boat when the flint was recovered.
Janu-(K/Rat) A little weak on the challenge but drops SOLELY because someone rose up and took her place in the penthouse.
ARE YOU A RAT OR A SNAKE?- Reserved for a MAXIMUM of two players. You have to be in the driver’s seat for this spot.

Tom- (K/Rat)- Caryn blasts him for picking the wrong beach and he rallies it into a positive. A hoss and a well-liked leader on the team with numbers. He’s in good shape.
Ian- (K/Tom)- Snags Janu’s spot by pulling that flint off the ocean floor. I seem to remember a player named Tina saving camp supplies from the water…

34

Hey, I think Angie is cute! (Of course, she’s probably gay – seems that that’s how it always works when I think someone’s cute – and as if I’d ever meet her anyway. :rolleyes: ) The pit hair isn’t too bad, and she has a cute face. And she has a cute tummy. I like her. :slight_smile:

35

Well done, watsonwil. The Rich Ratings shall be enjoyed by all for all eternity. :smiley:

Speaking of Angie - I can’t take much more of the fashion show. :eek: When we saw her at TC last night my wife and I literally simul-said “Hey where’s that shirt been all day?” Then as the camera pulled out it was “OMG! Shorts! Why is she torturing us when she has fully functioning clothes?!?”

ROFL! That was my favorite part too. They couldn’t have scripted that better. :smiley:

36

Dang it! Just when Ashlee differentiated herself in my mind from the others, on the basis of her,uh, impressive physique --she gets the boot. And they invented CleavageCam[sup]TM[/sup] just for her, too.

Ditto on the comments about Angie’s wardrobe – I guess she wears clothes around the camp, and underwear-only to the challenges. She’ll probably win the Editor’s Award for Most Pixillated Player by the end, especially when her next bikini wax is overdue.

37

:mad:

Hey, now! Angie’s no supermodel; but then again, supermodels are too skinny. Nothing wrong with Angie’s body that I can see. Let her run around naked if she wants! :smiley:

38

I thought Mormon women tended to dress modestly. The “garment” sort of requires it. But even when they are doing sports and other things where they don’t wear the garment, I thought that they generally chose clothes on the less-revealing side of the spectrum. And Ashlee’s top was certainly very revealing. Nipp-o-rific!

Could those things have possibly been real?

Anyway, I’m very happy that my prediction about Angie and her whining was wrong. It was nice to see that kind of turnaround. And I admire her body confidence.

You know, this episode was a great illustration of the difference between “gym muscles” and “real muscles.” Gym muscles are for show, and real muscles are for use. Sure, lots of people with real muscles lift weights, but their primary interest tends to be performance, rather than just looks. Therefore, in the real world, real muscles are way more useful than gym muscles. So, we saw Ibrehem, who appears to be the epitome of gym muscles, do nothing useful. Jeff and Bobby Jon did a little better, but not much. Tom and Ian on the other hand were incredibly useful. Janu also has real muscles, from the dancing and rock climbing, and she’s proving to be quite useful as well.

I fear for Willard. We haven’t seen too much of him yet, so I can’t say whether I like him or not, but I usually like the older male players, so I’m hoping he stays in for a bit.

Caryn…Yurk. She seems like a harpie. I don’t mind that she brought up her dissatisfaction with the choice to change beaches, but she just kept going and going. And the preview from next week…I just have no patience for women over a certain age that get into screaming fights. Let’s hope there’s a trouble/redemption story arc for her.

Is it his words or his accent that you find objectionable?

39

Tom has the UGLIEST chest hair of any Survivor contestant ever (Rupert, what few he had, takes second place.) I’m not too fond of Tom’s accent either.

40

I like him, too, but once again I am mystified by the choice of someone to go on this show who apparently doesn’t swim or barely knows how.

Harpie indeed. She bugs me already.
Who was it that kept saying to let it go? (I’m still having trouble sorting them all out.) I’m at a “certain age,” and I wouldn’t have gotten into a screaming fight about it, but I would have told her to shut up and let it go already. You’re at that beach, make the most of it.
