Totally, Car!

I see my daughter and I weren't the only ones to notice Sean's continued aversion to actually paddling towards success for the sake of his tribe, but did anyone else here see how Rob is the one who blew chunks (again!) while being the "caller" for the Moos 3rd coconut. While every other caller gave consistent directions all the way through, Rob would just stand there and stare at the board (I wished I'd taped it last night--I know this wasn't my imagination). He looked like he was just spacing out on watching the pretty coconut roll around and around and seemed to forget that he was actually RESPONSIBLE for giving his team some direction. Moo was ahead until it was his turn. I have preferred Rotini from ep1, but was REALLY rooting for the Moos to win IC last night and save me from drowning in the deadpool--thanks a lot Rob, I mean Don Mariano.

Mick, I think Rob was the one who dropped the torch into the water in the first IC, and also the one who lost to NELEH in the icky food challenge.... yet somehow, no one is actually catching on to that.

I was e-mailing Moon last night during the show, and I said "Rob does not have the verbal skills to be the caller...."

I think it's mistaken to give Rob and/or Sean credit for having a strategy. It looks to me like each time something goes wrong, they make up a little story afterward that casts themselves as the hero and brains and everyone else as the idiots. I think it's creative post-conversation, and not forward thinking at all. Sort of a "yeah, that's what I really meant to have happen..."

The only way to win Survivor so far is to be part of the strongest tribe going into the merge. These two have already lost, and they're determined not to face reality.

And FWIW, Sean didn't paddle the whole time. As Neko astutely pointed out somewhere, the object of paddling is to get the entire face of the paddle in the water, in order to have more force for movement. Only Hunter and Gina seemed to know this. All the others paddled by just getting the paddle about half-submerged. That's why when it came down to the final stretch where it was just a pure race, Rotu smoked them.

Now, it may just be that they don't know how to paddle properly. But they voted off one of the only two that actually knows something about being out in nature.... Not that it matters, cause they don't seem to be willing to learn and listen from anyone else anyway.

Ok, except Gina I absolutely hate the Maramuumus!..I was really disgusted with the way things went down. It made me sick to see Sean poop out on the IC then vote Hunter off...I guess I'm a sucker for good prevailing over evil. But it is making for yummy TV, and just hope I get to see Rotu pick off every last one of them!

Yes, Karuuna, you nailed it.

Sorry I'm popping in so late, but life has been a big pain, and though I'm reading, haven't had time to reply.

I haven't seen such a "bum's club" as Maraamu in my life. They're voting off their best people, and the remainders haven't a brain between all of them.

I console myself with the fact that I'm three for three on my website predictions for the show so far, even though it means the end of the tribe (I had access problems, so I couldn't get into the dead pool, but I did put a prediction list online giving the names of the first eight to go, and so far I've been right). I do regret putting in a good word about Sean, though, because right now he's coming off as less than useless.

Yes Karuuna, you got that right! Sean & Rob are losers! (Sarah too). And so is Vee for following...

First of all, I think Rob and Sean are way more intellectually challenged than they think they are. And for all their talk about the Alpha Male thing, they both belong down around, oh, Delta or so. The only area that I can see where reality actually equals their opinions of themselves is in their testosterone levels. Hmmm...maybe Delta level is too harsh--they remind me of two Beta male fish in the same tank. And everyone knows that you have to separate male Betas because they'll end up killing each other. While I'm really feeling sorry for Gina, I kind of wish that MB just leaves them be. Now that they don't have the distraction of focusing all their energies on resenting Hunter, it would be rather satisfying to watch the two Alpha Asses self-destruct.

I wish I could be a fly on the wall in either Vee's or Sarah's living room when they are watching these episodes and see what asses these guys are and what fools these girls were for listening to them.

Grooch, I wish Vee and Sarah were reading these posts and realizing what disgusting idiots we think they are!

They will all cry poor editing. And as Alicia said....of you don't put it out there, they can't get it.

lol! Ok. Then I'll be a fly on their shoulder when they are sitting at the computer reading these posts.

As each new series of Survivor airs the next group learns a little more. The valuable lesson here is to stick together as a team straight out of the gate and worry about alliances down the line. The strength to win IC's lies in attitude, not brawn.

Plus Rob's moustache is hysterical looking. I'm waiting for one more week for the ends to grow long and then he can take some coconut oil and wax it and twirl the ends. And when he talks to the cameras he can roll the ends between his fingers so he can really look the part of the villian.

Stupidity, laziness, ego and a bimbette will
always overcome common sense and leadership.

and now it's time to watch the 'alpha male'
rise to the top, leading the 'moronmu' tribe to
victory............wait a sec what was i smoking???

Moronmu, that's a good one!

Moronmu. Perfect. Inhabited by Alpha Asses and bimbos. (And one contender who unfortunately will soon be ousted. A shining example of anti-Darwinism...survival of the stupidest.)

I understand that everybody is upset, but....

Sean does not make black people look bad. Sean doesn't represent black people. Sean represents Sean, and he is pretty useless. That's like saying Sarah makes white women look bad.


Am I the only one who thinks Vee may actually be doing the smart thing by going along (assuming that secretly she thinks rob & Sean are a$$es)?

Maybe I should say that I hope she gets it and is playing the game. Otherwise...

I was really furious when Hunter was voted off, thinking "How dumb can the others be?"
BUT---Hunter is gone and they are still there. Maybe not so dumb as they act.

I curse them. May they all be covered in scabs. Well, that worked out anyway.

Poor darwin...rolling over in his grave right now...that gene pool has no lifeguard now....
my bet is the moronmu tribe will win with sean's
drive, sarah's looks, rob's muscles and vecepia's...........oh well........

these people vote off their leaders and then wonder why they lose all the challenges? dumb*ss move on their part. i think they are going to lose the next set of challenges also. gina is the only one left who does any work! she can't very well carry the tribe. they are screwed. makes me happy that the other tribe is doing so well. here i thought gabe would be the one i don't like because of his link to mike boogie.
