WHO DOES NOT LOVE RUPERT?:
Archive through October 28, 2003
Prisonerno6 | Monday, October 13, 2003 - 02:05 pm     In answer to the thread question, apparently Burton. Burton's chat Apparently his logic for throwing a challenge and getting rid of someone now has to do with his concern that if they stayed whole as a tribe at the merge, eventually it would be just their tribe left. Then the five weak players would gang together to get rid of the three strong ones. So...why didn't he think that would happen at this point? Why wouldn't the weaker players gang together, get a couple of strong ones on their side and get rid of a "strong" player now while they have the chance? He blames it all on Rupert for deceiving him and going behind his back to the others. Uh, Burt? weren't you going behind the others' backs when you talked to Rupert? He also called Rupert insecure for being upset at Burton's juvenile teasing. Sheeeyah, right, frat boy. |
Grooch | Monday, October 13, 2003 - 04:26 pm     So why does he not like Crista because she would start arguements, but he liked Jon for doing the same thing?
Quote:seewater: Hi Burt, What exactly was it about Christa that you didn't like? Burton: The fact that everyone could be standing around in a good mood and she would just out of the blue throw in a random question to cause arguments or just be rude to someone. To give you an example, in the show, Shawn, Christa and I and probably some others were standing around the fire and Christa said to Shawn, "Did you go to college?" He said yes and then she asked if he graduated. He said yeah and then for no reason she looked at me and asked the same thing. And her laugh and stupid facial expressions get old after a while also. dizzyupthegirl: Was Jon as annoying as he appeared on TV? Burton: To some people Jon was very annoying but I actually found him quite humorous. Having someone like that on the tribe kept things interesting and he was just a heatseeker for arguments and fights that kept others out of the spotlight from a negative standpoint.

Texasdeb | Monday, October 13, 2003 - 04:55 pm     I think the thread got a little off track. I don't dislike Rupert, but this thread is for dislike posts of Rupert. As a Rupert fan, I like to come in here & read the other side - please folks, let the Rupert dishing continue..... |
Surfgirl | Monday, October 13, 2003 - 09:43 pm     Sorry Sunshyne4u if you thought I was bashing you .. really I wasnt.. was just pointing out the discrepancy of your statement.. on not against looks just attitude.. sorry again if it was portrayed as bashing....Funny how a group can read a post yet have different points of views about it..anyways back to topic In response to Ruperts aggresive personality.. the shooting daggers and raised eyebrows..heck in my neighborhood thats to polite.. some dude criticizes your eating habits for getting food in your beard.. then trys to "CRACK" others up by picking on your plumbers crack.. well in my mind he showed great restraint by not kicking his butt! |
Sunshyne4u | Tuesday, October 14, 2003 - 01:02 am     LOL I think my description /comparison with homeless guys was what offended you. To me the comparison is not a slight, I was just stating what my impression was. Even the slurry way Rupert talks reminds me of heavy drug users. I am not SAYING HE IS, just it is similar. *** I know people who have been homeless, in a matter of fact I had a guy living in my old car parked out back. (I never knew it for a while) Just so people dont think I am some judgemental snob!! |
Enigma2 | Tuesday, October 14, 2003 - 01:48 am     Surfgirl: Your last paragraph is right-on. Sunshyne4u: I think that the problem is that we all seem to have different impressions/reactions to some terms. Our gut reactions to 'homeless' and 'heavy drug users' (to use your last post) can be very diverse. Texasdeb: Yes, some of these threads seem to wander and converge. (I tend to only look at the entries since my last post and it's only when I'm 'reminded,' I realize: hey, I'm in the wrong place... |
Maris | Tuesday, October 14, 2003 - 04:43 am     He looks like a young Gerry Garcia to me. |
Fluff | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 07:59 am     Rupert scares me.  |
Enigma2 | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 09:21 am     Fluff: just saw your picture in your profile. Your hair is a mess. You need a nose job. Buggy eyes. And get some clothes on. Talk about Rupert being scarey... (Before anyone thinks I'm bashing, click on Fluff's name and look at the posted picture...) |
Kittyface | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 09:55 am     Too funny, Enigma Actually, Fluff's hair kinda reminds of Rupert!! |
Fluff | Wednesday, October 22, 2003 - 11:40 am     No way. My hair looks way better than Rupert's. No seriously!  |
Yuhuru | Thursday, October 23, 2003 - 06:05 pm     Add me to the list. I'm not feeling him, especially after next weeks preview. Who does he think he is?!?!?!? |
Surfgirl | Thursday, October 23, 2003 - 08:07 pm     Well Yuhuru, You know who he is.. The very first Surviver who I think, hope and truly believe , is playing with his heart and as his true self.. not the greedy back stabbing..manipulating souls before him! |
Tishala | Thursday, October 23, 2003 - 08:49 pm     His whole being irritates me. He has a certain smugness and self-importance that drive me crazy. Between his snake junk, his TC histrionics, and his constant string of advice, he's just become a bore. Hope he gets out of there soon. |
Fluff | Friday, October 24, 2003 - 11:26 am     He super scared me last night with that rant. I'm afraid to watch next week when he goes off on the blonde guy.  |
Sunshyne4u | Saturday, October 25, 2003 - 05:05 pm     Rupert has a LOT of nerve....and i bet he is now going to be looked at differently. Going off on Jon is a big mistake, DEMANDING to know who voted for him to go! VERY harrassing and aggressive, which is why I have disliked Rupert from the start. Anyone who has watched Survivor from past seasons KNOWs that it is a huge error to get neurotic and attack the other contestants. ITS A GAME!! Mellow out you angry man!! Some mentor he is!! Teaching kids to attack people as a way to force your opinions in life. * At TC Rupert said that he was surprised that someone in HIS TRIBE would.... My mouth dropped open........WHAT a cocky man!! HIS tribe.......not our tribe or the tribe I belong to!!! Unless his alliance stands firmly with him I see Rupert as the next to go. |
Lilliegirl | Saturday, October 25, 2003 - 09:55 pm     SUN, you got that right, I think Rupert thinks he is god, he made me sick just to hear him talk. |
Jane_Bond | Saturday, October 25, 2003 - 11:31 pm     But Drake IS his tribe. It's not Andrew's tribe, it's not Ryno's tribe, it's Rupert's tribe. And Christa's tribe, and Jon's tribe. Not Trish's tribe, anymore. |
Talon | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 05:49 am     When you refer to the people you know, or the people you are related to: how do you refer to them? Quite a few times you probably would have said: "My friends", "My family". If you were on the Saprano's you could refer to them as "The family" |
Sunshyne4u | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 06:29 pm     Talon, since you ask. It depends on the expression of possessiveness. MY family makes sense. My friends also makes sense as they kind of "belong to you". Opponents in a game are not covered under the same rules, in my opinion. * But I could be wrong.......wouldnt be the First time!! LOL |
Zipsdaddy | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 07:39 pm     Brian "THE KING" was just as pompous last Survivor, and he won. Should we assume that all of Ruperts face time is a sign that he too will win? He plays a good game, but unlike Brian, he keeps shoving it down everyone's throat. Therefore, he will eventually be considered a big enough threat to be kicked off. |
Jagger | Monday, October 27, 2003 - 09:01 am     The more I see of this guy the less I like him, when he said he wanted Shawn off his island and that he was the leader and provider for his tribe that about did it for me. They are a tribe, I don't recall anyone voting him as their leader. I'm just waiting for the week he gets the boot so I can celebrate. |
Crazydog | Monday, October 27, 2003 - 10:52 am     I don't have a problem with him saying "half of my tribe", because he is part of the tribe and it is his tribe (as opposed to the other tribe). But I did have a problem with him saying "I want him off MY island and out of MY adventure." What a pompous and arrogant man. He acts as if the entire show revolves around him. It's not endearing. The bit with the snake was just as ridiculous as the animal bits with crazy batty Jan in Thailand. It's a snake. Get over it. |
Fluff | Tuesday, October 28, 2003 - 12:11 pm     Very arrogant. And loud.  |
Teachmichigan | Tuesday, October 28, 2003 - 04:59 pm     First, I'm a Rupert Lover, but please hear me out anyway. I watch the insider clips at Yahoo, and Jon has shown WAY more arrogance than Rupert. Most of Rupert's confessionals deal with home, his love of the islands, their surroundings and the fun adventure he's having. Jon only talks about Jon. At one point he said he was "perfect, smart" and a "danger to women." Ok...back to your regularly scheduled Rupert bashing! LOL (I'm just not gonna' look! ;) ) |
