lumberjim • Jul 17, 2008 12:03 pm
yep
BrianR • Jul 17, 2008 12:05 pm
oh God! kill em all NOW!
lumberjim • Jul 17, 2008 12:11 pm
if they killed the people that got voted off the island, it would mean more.

Run around with your ass hanging out, and whisper about people behind their backs. You'll be a shoe-in.
BrianR • Jul 17, 2008 12:17 pm
Tell the producers my idea...

Survivor: El Paso!

No Spanish, no A/C, no cold water (tap temp is 85 deg)
and no job because you don't speak their language.

Losers are deported to Mexico and shot in a drug war.

huh? HUH?

whadda ya think?

And I want credit if they take it!
Shawnee123 • Jul 17, 2008 12:18 pm
I like it. Can we have our asses hanging out and stab each other in the back frequently?
BrianR • Jul 17, 2008 12:20 pm
Sure!

Survivor casting getting you down? Try Lost casting!

at this point, there is a line around the building....and it's a big building.

funniest thing said by a salesman about the survivors so far:

"Boy....I'd like to see if #121 could survive my cock."

I am dubious about how this will really benefit your dealership. I mean, how many of the applicants have bought a car while they're waiting? I guess maybe they're looking while they wait, and might come back later. But still.

When I was either a boy scout or maybe a cub scout, there was an event at the local VW dealership to see how many people you could fit in a VW Rabbit.

Our troop showed up and we squeezed something like 30 kids into that little car. (The seat backs had been removed, I think.)

Anyway, none of us bought a car there, but the contest was mentioned on the radio, and the results were also mentioned. The message was clear: the little VW Rabbit isn't as small as you might think, after all, you can fit 30 kids in there.

Required comeback: "Don't you mean notice it?"

P.S. Once again, useless without photos.

it comes down to press, i suppose. the actual logistics of it are a nightmare....but our name is on the news

This year, I watched a few episodes of the season that ended last night. Anyone else watch it? There was a guy named Penner that sounded exactly like Alan Alda. He reminded me of BigV.

That's all I have to say about that.

Maybe they're going for an analogy; The 2013 Pathfinder is to the 1987 what Survivor is to I love Lucy? I kid...

oh... this is a 4.5 year old thread Griff. i was just looking for some relevant topic. apparently, we don't watch Survivor in the cellar. or at least we don't talk about it.
Griff • Dec 17, 2012 5:28 pm
In that case, hey he looks like Big V!
glatt • Dec 17, 2012 6:20 pm
I haven't followed Survivor in years, but for some reason, I watched for a while last night. But I went to bed. Who won? And when did they start letting the jury pick the winner from three finalists instead of two?
jimhelm • Dec 17, 2012 6:45 pm
the leathery old muscle chick won.

I just couldn't believe no one recognized Blaire from Facts of Life.

and yes, they voted on the last 3.
glatt • Dec 17, 2012 7:23 pm
I recognized her right away. I guess a lot of them weren't even born then.
Chocolatl • Dec 17, 2012 7:33 pm
I take it that was a tv show?

/born in '85

Sigh

I'm a fan. I refused to watch for years, then started when all i had was rabbit ears(antenna for tv, not me) and only got one station.

Penner did indeed sound like alan alda! I wanted lisa to win. It was weird that she wasn't recognized. Of course, that show was a big deal in its day...us old folks remember it well but you don't see it in re-run much.

I think the cute young guy (forgot his name offhand, was in final four) got gypped. Abi shouldn't have lasted so long.
