so far, the only thing I would have had a problem with in all the seasons of TAR is the rat temple in India. I could have done it though, I just would have been creeped out and holding my breath.

I don't have the physical strength to do some of the TAR challenges, so that's the real reason I'm not applying for the race. I also can't really do eating challenges. Not at all.

I know my limitations. I could never do something like TAR you have to up high and there's no way I could do that.

Yeah -- I'm not sure if I could do that stuff or not, so I wouldn't put myself into the situation.

The one thing I would have a really hard time with would be weird foods. That could definitely be a deal-breaker for me.

Yeah I don't get people who are terrified of heights who go on Amazing Race and people who don't like the outdoors who go on Survivor.

I had no problem at all with what the Globetrotters did. As Miss Ali would say, it's a race. They weren't cheating. They were just pressing their advantage. Additionally, trash talking is a huge part of basketball culture, trying to get inside your opponent's head and psyche him/her out. They were treating Mika like what she was, a competitor.

I honestly think she would've done the challenge if Canaan hadn't freaked out on her and made a couple of attempts to physically force her down the slide. He needed to stay calm and just try to talk her down, as much as he could. But his screaming and being stressed out just completely pushed her over the edge. And no, one should not go on TAR if one has a crippling fear of heights. I can't drive a stick shift and I can't swim. Therefore, as much as I love this show, I'd never go on TAR. Or if I did get on TAR, I'd make sure I learned how to drive stick and got over my own crippling fear of water and learned to swim. But I guess that's too much like right.

I'm very glad the Globetrotters are still in it. Love them, although I could've killed them at the first task. 8, 7? Really? I did like their attitude coming out of that colossal fail. No recriminations. No screaming. Just continued good humor and a never give up spirit. Yes, I like them quite a bit.

The Miss America half of the zebra couple is killing me. I think I'd really like the husband if he were running the race with just about anyone else. Pinky and the Brain are growing on me. I eagerly await the day when the poker girls figure out that the brothers are gay. The lead couple has thus far made no real impression on me beyond blonde and bland.

kat,

I think the poker players have figured out the brothers are gay. The way they said the brothers were hot makes me think they have a concrete idea that they have no chance.

the woman was wearing floaties on her arms. did she know how to swim?

I sincerely hope this is true. Honestly, how many matching shorts and passport holders do these boys need to sport before you buy a clue?

I was wondering the same thing. She did say in their opening interview that she never did any outdoor activities, or something very close to that. If she has a fear of heights and also can't swim? Yeah, I don't even know what to say about that.

Is this the first time someone has refused to complete a task? Not attempted it and been unable to complete it, but just flat out refused to even try? Not counting Flo, I guess. That was wild. I thought for sure that we were getting the same fake out we always get where someone goes on and on about how they're not sure they can do "x" and then we come back from the commercial break to find them doing "x".

I'm just saying, what adult do you know who knows how to swim wears floaties? If she doesn't really know how to swim, no wonder she was absolutely freaked out. she still shouldn't have been on TAR though. Didn't she see what happened to the sisters last season?

I sincerely hope this is true. Honestly, how many matching shorts and passport holders do these boys need to sport before you buy a clue?

funny funny shit.

I didn't even know they made them in big girl sizes. Well, now she can use the floaties in the hotel pool while they cool their heels in Sequesterville.
