A Survivor Family?

Ocean_Islands | Friday, October 04, 2002 - 05:44 am     Is anyone else bothered by all this insistance that Guak Chay is a 'family'? I think that kind of idea is very unattractive. After all you don't vote your family out one by one. It's not a family. |
Wiseolowl | Friday, October 04, 2002 - 06:07 am     Ocean - it's a family but by the rules of the game it's disfunctional. Something like my inlaws - 4 sisters competitive with each other and a mother who likes to stir the pot. In their case however the rules are slightly different - one week one is out and the others are in - a week later the outed one is back in and another is out. Might be a good system for this game too. A week or two later you can change your mind and bring somebody back. |
Laura11103 | Friday, October 04, 2002 - 07:24 am     I think it's human nature that when you spend a certain amount of time together, especially doing things like travelling and being in a different environment, you tend to start to care about the people you're with, bonding happens. It's also probably a survival technique, I mean, unless we've got emotion for something, it really does become meaningless. Just cuz they have to vote people off doesn't mean they don't care about each other. Look at all the reality shows, it's not like people are usually cheering when one of their own gets voted off. Just cuz Lisa on BB had to vote against Eric doesn't mean she doesn't care about him. |
Ginger1218 | Sunday, October 06, 2002 - 07:56 am     I personally find it amazing that people on these shows (BB and Survivor) are constantly saying "I love you" after knowing someone just a few days. They throw the word "love" around way too much. I love you and we are family mean nothing. Actions speak louder than words. Admit it, you are competing against them - you may tolerate some more than others, you may have some fondness for some more than others, but give me a break - love?????? |
