Survivor 6: The Amazon

Posted on 02/11/2003 4:56:24 AM PST by cuz_it_aint_their_money

Well, I’m back.
Sort of.
My wife, (the lovely and gracious, Mrs. CUZ) has laid down the law!
“You’re spending too much time FReeping and not enough time paying attention to me!”
Women! Go figure!

Anyway, my FReeping has been severely curtailed, so I’ll start this thread, and from time to time, spout off with my two cents worth, but someone else will have to maintain the ping list and post weekly recaps (If they feel so inclined).
If someone wants the ping list, FReepmail me and I’ll send it to them.

Till then,
Enjoy,

My impression of Rob went up tremendously. I used to say if he won I would never watch again, with his win combined with Brian's last time. But now I would be OK with him winning. I just hope that he continues on, and gets everyone to vote off Heidi and Jenna next. Although I might miss Heidi and Jenna talking about what babes they are -- I wonder what they think now when they watch the show and hear the words they spoke and see what they look like. I doubt they even clean up well.

"That may be, but she really insulted me during her letter thing last night. The implication being that "hearing" people are not to be trusted -- deaf people can only trust deaf people."

I don't see the same implication you do. It is a perception and attitude coming from how you see it. I have no intention of offending you. Look honestly at what you wrote. It is quite opinionated, isn't it? How did she insult you? You agree she is in a trying circumstance. No point in taking offense from her is there?

We have a difference of opinion. Let's enjoy the show or hate it or ignore it; it is a choice. To take any of it personally doesn't make sense.

I'm sorry you chose to be offended by my response to your post #487.

This is the first time I've seen your Survivor post. I was a SSI junkie and lived over on the big time spoiler site but too many 14yo trolls found it by mid season two. I've heard some of the CBS employees let the cat out of the bag this time but I won't spoil it for you (if that spoiler is even correct...who knows).

I like how Mark Burnett is playing up Rob. It reminds me of Richard in SSI (no, I'm not hinting Rob is or isn't the winner). It's the Rob show and MB is showing us the personalities through Rob's eyes. Except Rob can't see the boob alliance for the skanks they are. I am proud he was smart enough to vote out Alex but the duffus only did that to get rid of the sexual competition rather than a strategy. Last week I was sure he'd messed up alining with the boob alliance and ditching his partner Deena but he did see the light with M/B/C. IMO, he's shot himself in the foot because Deena's not gonna vote for him because he dumped her and the boobs + boyfriend are ticked at him so that's 4 votes lost. More votes will be lost when Loser Lodge start discussing his shinanigans.

Matt, well, Matt's and odd bird (or at least that's how MB wants the audience to see him). At first I didn't care for him, but he's starting to grow on me a bit. He's just too trusting. Anyone else would have feed Rob to the piranah's after his confession (dummy!) last week, but not calm quiet Matt.

What does anyone know about Butch? Hello, is he even on the show? He seems like a "good" person. At least he hasn't done anything shocking or degrading, and he was gentlemanly enough not to look at that skeleton Heidi and Jenna when they shucked it all for absolutely no reason. Butch was thinking of not scandalizing his students, unlike Heidi.

In case you haven't heard, Heidi's contract isn't being renewed next year due to "budget cuts". Ooooh, if my child was in her class after all she's said and done..... The sooner she goes the better for the whole show and students everywhere. U G L Y goes further than skin deep. Here's hoping she's not long for the game.

Jenna, the other boob (all puns intended), irks me too. I'm ticked Alex is gone just to knock the wind out of their sails. They were so nasty to Christy and kicked the oldsters out just because they weren't young and pretty (gag!). The only time I'd want to see J or H again is at the 20 year reunion show and see how un-perky they've become.

Christy has come a long way since day l. Mostly for the better, but I too don't care for her comments about the hearing world. Perhaps she's just getting frustrated with the loneliness. I think she'd be funny and a neat person to know if only she'd had a friend to bring out her personality. Too bad MB came up with such a bland group this year. I'd like to see her make the F4 and hopefully to 3rd.

"Pull their heads out."

thank you.

By the way, I tried to get "Swamp Fox" -- a childhood hero -- when I first signed on, but it was taken. I see you figured out a way to get around that.

Yes, quite opinionated about ONE person, not the entire collection of a group of people who happen to handicapped as you claimed in your post! Go back and read what YOU posted and tell me honestly how I WOULDN'T take offense.

"It reminds me of Richard in SSI"

I had the exact same thought.

"I am proud he was smart enough to vote out Alex but the duffus only did that to get rid of the sexual competition rather than a strategy."

I thought the same thing on that one too. But I don't hold him in the same high regard you do. As I said before, he may be surviving today, but he's guaranteeing himself to lose if he makes it to the final two.

When trying to register on FR I had a dozen names rejected as already being in use, I just kept trying different combinations. That was the first one that worked.

I live in Florence, SC. Married father of 3. Engineer/Product Manager. Graduate student at Francis Marion University...the Patriots.

I do not see how you do not see that ... this statement
"That may be, but she really insulted me during her letter thing last night. The implication being that "hearing" people are not to be trusted -- "

says you thought she meant that all deaf people were the only people to be trusted ... I do not think she did or said or implied anything like that. Read all our posts, and think about it ... making knee jerk responses do not become either of us. Which is my opinion. Perhaps we can not communicate with each other effectively. I think your response was out of line and said so. I also said ...

I stand by that. I did say I had no intention to offend. Still do not.

Why do you pick Jenna? I would think that she's not in the wrong alliance. Of course, I've watched all the Survivors and know that anything can happen.

Good Morning fellow Survivor Junkies

Well, Well, Well.
Looks like Rob has a pair on him after all.
Unfortunately, it’s too little, too late.

As far as tonight’s bootee, I would really, really REALLY like to see Butch, Christy, and Matt form a final three alliance and vote out Rob. Just on principle.
Don’t get me wrong, Rob has been a back stabbing, manipulating, lying, SOB since day one. In other words, the perfect player. I just don’t like him as a person.

Having said that, what I want, aint gonna be what happens. Butch, Christy, and Matt will realize that the inseparable Boobsy twins are a bigger voting threat than Rob is as an Immunity threat. Christy will want to boot Jenna, but Butch and Matt will convince her to boot Heidi this week and save Jenna for next week.

Therefore, tonight’s bootee – Heidi.

That’s it for this week,
Enjoy,

Someone explain to me why Heidi will go and not Jenna? Is Heidi more of a physical threat?

I saw one spoiler that has it down to Matt and Jenna - which makes sense, if the challenges get back to being physical, because Matt sweeps 'em. jenna hasn't made enemies, and sees Rob for being the lying, backstabbling, manipulative POS that he is, and if he doesn't go this week, he goes next week.

Heidi has the all the personality of a particularly stupid cocker spaniel. The only ones left that I can stand are Matt, Jenna and Butch, and Matt or Jenna walk away with it.

With her scrawny, "Bag-O-Bones", body? Hardly.
I think that Jenna will get some residual "Sympathy slop-over" from last week. Her mother's cancer and all. That's the only reason I picked Heidi over her for this week.

I think your right, Heidi then Jenna next week after all she's worthless except maybe for a B.J.

Because a member of the internet SURVIVOR spoiling community knows Heidi, and he's been saying since the beginning that she gets voted out during Episode 11.

IMHO, Heidi will somehow win immunity, and make the mistake of transferring it to Jenna.

Because of the story that was printed in the press about a month ago. I won't say more cause it could be spoilers.
