Maybe after last night they'll all get superstitious about ceviches. Maybe.
I am happy to note that there seem to be fewer duos and trios of things this season.
God, seriously.
We're proud to say that the Class of '99 has the lowest mortality rate of any graduating class in Sunnydale history.

Because books.
Yeah, I'm as tired of anything "three ways" as I am of ceviche. I've never had a ceviche of anything.

I love ceviche and I'm STILL bored with it on this season. (Ditto scallops - love to eat 'em. Will FALL ASLEEP if I ever see another one cooked on TV.)

I'd forgotten about Ash's Sondheim shoutout during last night's Top Chef! When they were gathered around the campfire the night before the elim challenge, and someone was talking about the various animals that might be out there.
Someone: "Bears?"
Ash: "Bears? Bears are sweet!"
Gotta love showtune lyric quotes in the middle of the desert.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
Survivor: Dude, Russell- what? Although I like him more than Coach. Russell is crazy in a much more insane and amusing (to me) way.
The choosing the Asian chick as the smartest was pretty predictable, and I thought it was funny that Mr. Black Water Polo Champion dude getting picked as the best swimmer was hilarious because everyone (including him) was like, "wait, black people on this show can't swim!" And he smoked everyone. And looked gooood doing it.
Ah, ethnic stereotypes. Although I kind of felt like the show was kind of calling them out instead of being (completely) stupid with them.
Ah, misogyny. "dumb-ass girl alliance." Again, was kind of meta as well. It will be interesting to see if the stereotypes get blown to hell this season, given all the foreshadowing in this episode.
Who the hell was Angry Dude on the Yellow Team? (ETA: not Crazy Russell, the guy with the kerchief who was all over Marisa's shit.)
Also, I laughed and laughed and laughed at the engineer trying to build the shelter while everyone was seething and tuning out. Hottest rocket scientist I have ever seen though.

Shit, I didn't realize that started tonight. Stupid Survivor (and Amazing Race) with the changing the name every season.

Oh hell no - I'd even take Fairplay over Russell. I hate him that much. Maybe he'll get eaten by a shark, though.
MY FUCKING CABLEVISION PIECE OF SHIT DVR DID NOT RECORD TOP CHEF. A-FUCKING-GAIN.
Instead, it taped some random house-flipping show at 2:30am, and it didn't even do THAT properly - half the show was missing!
