Can we maybe vote on the whole murdering people issue?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm happy about the result of Survivor. I think it bodes well for future editions of the game.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh right, Survivor!!

We had guests over who don't watch the show last night so it's still sitting on the Tivo. Looking forward to that tonight.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I know Russell was trying to play Like Richard hatch, but Hatch was fairly pleasant to his castmates an kept most of his machinations for the confessionals. I think Russell was too contemptuous of the other players, and that truly isn't good gameplay.

Scrappy, I thought that you meant Russell from SYTYCD, and I was all "no! he's a sweetheart!" until I realized that you were talking about Survivor.

There were way too many Russells on reality tv this fall.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I sat next to one of them on a plane!

That was this summer though.

Really? Why? How is this not the same old coattail effect we've seen time and time again, with the person who does all the heavy lifting getting shafted because they have no "integrity"?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

we have to question: did he do "all the heavy lifting?" Apparently Russell was getting on everyone's nerves out there. His biggest accomplishments were talking to various people individually who knew he was lying to them.

Russell's biggest strategic move was convincing John to vote with them, but aside from that, I'm not sure I buy that he did all the heavy lifting. Natalie's social game got Erik out and contributed to the jury liking her.
