    I thought the same thing. If she was tanking it (I don't think she was) that would be one thing, but that was just pathetic.

    I think that's a poor assumption. The one jackass keeps wearing his tie to tribal council.

    If I'm anywhere close to be selected to be on Survivor, every meeting I attend I've got a swiss army knife and other essentials jammed up where it can't be found, and I'm wearing boots.

    That's me every day, and I've never even applied to be on 'Survivor.'

    you suppose they just swing by and pick you up from your job or something, leaving you generally ill-prepared clothing wise for the adventure?
     
  6. Why does the tribe need a leader anyway?
    The Olympic athlete is a joke.
    The whole Fang tribe is a joke, in fact.

    Bringing along coke-bottle glasses might help with making a fire, no?

    my guess is that they'd nix that, tg, unless you actually need the things. they're not in the business of making this easy on these people - that's not good tv. though trying to convince them that you need reading glasses -- you know, for tree mail -- might be an easier sell.

    Anybody who is on that show should show up wearing glasses for that reason. It's even been talked about before on the show.

    Why did the producers give Fang a flint to make fire?
    Flint was a prize for the winners of the challenge. Fang lost the challenge, but then got flint anyway.
    Lame.
    It also robbed us of the chance to watch that stupid, tie-wearing bastard trying to get a spark by striking an animal bone with a machete.

    It's possible my memory is going, but I could've sworn they haven't done that in the past, until a tribe has "discovered" fire.

    Fire was up for grabs in the challenge, but later they showed the losing tribe with a flint starting a fire.
