Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

TAR: What's up with these people who don't read the rules and realize that only one team gets to "get" the ff?

Same team that didn't know that London was not a country.

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

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

yes, I believe so. I honestly can't tell some of the people apart still, but that's what I believe.

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

Is Nat (or is Kat?) insulin-dependent, too? I saw her blood sugar monitor and wondered, because that has to be tough on this race.

Seriously - I would not have expected a team with a diabetic and a vegetarian to jump blind into an eating challenge like that! But good on them for getting through it.

What's up with these people who don't read the rules and realize that only one team gets to "get" the ff?

That was unbelievable. But it explains why they went there in the first place even though they knew they were in the middle/back of the pack.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Yeah, Team Tattoo is definitely way too stupid to last too long on the Race. But, Vicki is a powerhouse physically--loved that she was outracing Mr. "I've raced BMX professionally!"

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The Tattoos are indeed Too Stupid, but they have enough gameness and strength to last despite it.

Michael and Kevin are still made of love. I correctly predicted to my roommate that Kevin would take the heavier fish.

I wonder how many sheep heads they had cooked and ready to go? There's always the possibility that another team or two would arrive before the FF was "taken".

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I was actually really impressed by the lack of whining and drama exhibited by the doctors. First with the heights thing- she didn't make a big deal about it, although she was scared. (also, very nice, Volleyballers, hoping that she'd have a panic attack!) and then with the eating challenge. Good for them!

I also really like Michael and Kevin, though I could do without Kevin constantly reminding his dad how much of a burden he is. I also like the shopping network hostesses, their weird kissing contest aside. And the tatooed couple is pretty lulzy with the crazy dumb. I'd like them a lot more if he didn't scream at her that one time. I'm relieved that we haven't seen more of that. I do not like either one of the other couples, especially Mr. OMG I WENT TO NOTRE DAME AND AM SO MUCH BETTER AND SMARTER THAN MY BEAUTY SCHOOL DROPOUT GIRLFRIEND AND I ENJOY REMINDING HER OF THAT AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY.

Mallory is definitely growing on me- she is just so excited to be there!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

And the tatooed couple is pretty lulzy with the crazy dumb.

Kinda. I just get annoyed that they picked some "alternative" people who happen to be dumb, which will make too many folks think that alternative = dumb. Annoy, annoy, annoy. Ink does not rot your brains.
