Fruitbat | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 08:47 am     I don't care who hosts it. I just want to watch it NOW! << waiting to come back and gloat when we see the ending is different >> << and then prepares to disappear when Neleh shows her tattoo >> |
Car54 | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 08:54 am     MEEEE TOOOOO!!! I am so excited that it is Sunday! And we get the repeat tonight! I am gonna be insane til tomorrow. {Neleh's parents and her 7 brothers and sisters are all going to NYC with her... maybe she won't show the tattoo in front of them!} |
Egbok | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 09:07 am     Turtle tatoo, Turtle tatoo, Turtle tatoo...... (try saying that 10 times!) |
Car54 | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 09:43 am     Help me Jesus, this entire board is going loony! |
Sunshinemiss | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 09:51 am     No help for you, Car, we are all too far gone... We need a vacation... turtle tattoo, turtle tattoo... |
Wink | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 09:53 am     Car I think you need a bumper sticker. Ask MsBat. She'll have some great suggestions. |
Angelnikki | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 01:05 pm     i think rosie is a great choice. she loves the show, she loves the people and shes very generous. i dont think she does all this to make people like her, she does it because she truly loves it. she will be a joy to watch and i cant wait. |
Misslibra | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 01:19 pm     I like Rosie, and I think she will do a better job then Bryant. In fact I wouldn't mind seeing her host BB. MissLibra ducks and run |
Pottedplant | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 01:21 pm     I do not really like Rosie, but she does at least watch the show, & will be better than B Grumble, who did the worst job ever at hosting. So excited, I wish it was Sunday already |
Car54 | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 01:35 pm     The E! True Hollywood Story for Survivor is on right now (Eastern time) |
Misslibra | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 01:37 pm     Thanks Car will turn it on right now. When did it start, and will it repeat?? |
Prettywomen | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 08:08 pm     Well we all have our opinions and I just don't think Rosie is for survivor she is cheesy and fat and she thinks she knows it all...But she doesn't...I just wished Anderson was invited to this...Anderson would have made the ratings sky rocket...he is sexy, has style and charm and is a real person too.. |
Yuhuru | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 08:51 pm     Wow Prettywomen ! Did you really mean that Rosie shouldn't host the reunion because she's fat? Ouch!!! Now I want you to eat a hat no matter who wins. |
Seamonkey | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 09:27 pm     Youch.. I don't like Rosie for her attitude and smarminess but I must say that she's as likely to pull in ratings as anyone else.. And her size certainly shouldn't be an issue at all! Rosie is a real person, but just has an overwhelming persona.. |
Angelnikki | Saturday, May 18, 2002 - 09:45 pm     what the hell is wrong with being FAT?????? being "fat" has nothing to do with this. she is a good person and she watches the show. she truly loves survivor and the contestants and she will make a great host. different people have different personalities and if you dont like her that much maybe you shouldnt watch the finale. rosie is the host and thats the way its gonna be weither anyone likes it or not. i personally like her and i think alot of people do. look at her ratings. |
Bohawkins | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 03:30 am     Rosie being fat, and in a prominent and very influential position, sets an example for women all over America that it is just fine to be dangerously overweight. She imples that a fat woman should just accept who they are, that it is ok to be fat. Like Angel, many women simply will ask the question sincerely, "What is wrong with being fat?" Angel and others think that the correct answer is nothing. Ten years ago public awareness about the insidious nature of obesity was pervasive. That has changed. Fat acceptance is a growing message now. Rosie's flaunting of her gross and sloppy fatness implies that it is just fine to be self-indulgent. Treat yourself, deny yourself nothing, feed your face. The truth is, being fat says that you don't care about your well being or the effect that your deteriorating health will have on others around you. The dangers of obesity and the myrial health problems which accompany this medical condition are easily pooh-poohed and swept aside, as not being politically correct. Rosie is the poster gal of fat. I have two physician friends. They tell me that eighty percent of the problems they see regularly are fitness and diet related. Obesity is a loaded gun of medical problems waiting to explode. So, yes, I am disgusted by her obesity. I pity obese people, I don't despise them. (I loved two fat people very much who died prematurely, because of ailments directly related to their obesity). I want the remaining fat people I know, whom I care very much about (and those everywhere), to have the advantages that I experience by being trim and fit, a state only produced by a regimen characterized by self-discipline. Fat people like Rosie should not be given any vehicle to spread their dangerous method of fat acceptance. |
Car54 | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 04:47 am     My, hasn't this little thread turned amazingly offensive? |
Merlin | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 06:21 am     self-discipline is good, especially when you use it beyond being just trim and fit.

Fruitbat | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 06:26 am     Yes indeedy. |
Tntitanfan | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 06:35 am     Gracious! I am a fit, trim, and APPALLED person! |
Gail | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 06:40 am     I don't have a problem with Rosie hosting the Survivor finale, as long as she doesn't sing. I personally did not care to see Bryant Gumble hosting the finales in the past. I never liked his interviewing style - he attacks and doesn't listen. He is worse then fingernails on a chalkboard. It was clear he was not a fan of the show. The Survivor finale should be hosted by a fan. Survivor is supposed to be entertaining and hopefully tonight's finale will have some humor for a change. I certainly don't see the logic in using Anderson on the show. If they were going to do that, they should just use Jeff Probst instead. |
Yuhuru | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 07:44 am     Bohawkins, I never seem to agree with any of your posts, which is cool. Diversity is one of the things that makes this country great. You make a good point that obesity is unhealthy, but I don't understand why it's disgusting. I don't think that people who are overweight should run and hide. I wouldn't call living a normal life and having a successful career, flaunting. I could have your intentions all wrong, but the tone of your post seems to be hatred and not concern. |
Squaredsc | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 07:51 am     who the hell is anderson? oops sorry admin. also who the he** cares if rosie is fat or not. its her business whether or not she is trying to keep healthy or not and has nothing to do with her hosting of the show. and if it was so easy to lose weight then there would only be skinny people, which i am not one of. anyhoo should be a great show in spite of her weight. |
Car54 | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 07:55 am     Squaredsc, Anderson Cooper is the host of The Mole. He is very cool! But he probably has little or no interest in Survivor. He is currently a contributor to the morning news on CNN, so I doubt he would appear on CBS. We have kind of doubted he would host Mole 3 if there was one. Great post Yuhuru  |
Gail | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 07:58 am     If there were no fat people, there would be no sumu wrestlers, the fat lady wouldn't sing and there would be no reason to have lite beer. |
