For fans of the TV show Survivor

[Phil]

Read the following carefully:
Watch the first episode of Survivor and decide who you think will be the winner
of this season's show. I will be giving to the winner of this contest 500 NP$.
There is a limit to the number of entrants since each NPer can only have 1 pick.
You must be the first to post the name of the Survivor contestant and no one else
can choose the same after. You must post your choice after I've made my pick (in
an attempt to win my own NP$ back :P).
I will post my pick sometime between 18-24 hours after the time of this post.

Here is a list of the Survivor contestants:

Ashley Trainer, a spa sales rep from Maple Oak, MN
Ben Browning, a mixologist from Los Angeles, CA
Betsy Bolan, a police officer from Campton, NH
Brett Clouser, a T-shirt designer from Calabasas, CA

The funny thing about Survivorman is how lethargic he can be. Bear Grislis on the other hand running around mountain climbing jumping off stuff.

Robots looking for idols?

I wonder if they will have mini-robots after dark? Oh wait, that's the Big Brother thread

 

[johname]

mini-robots after dark?

Yeah that's where boy robots like the girl robots with huge double disk drives. And the girl robots like the boy robots with big graphics cards.

yeah but this is TV land..so maybe boy like girl who likes girl etc or a robot with huge double disk drives and a big graphics card...

Maybe the boy just like the girl for his quad core cpu. Beauty is only plastic-exoskeleton deep, after all.
Could be more than a monogamous thing - depends on how many accessible ports she might have.

{I have no idea what this has to do with survivor anymore}

Survivor starts Wednesday Sept 23

 

[johname]

I don't know if I can handle a whole season of hearing Jeff refer to someone as "Wigglesworth".

 

[DU]

I didn't watch today but I nominate Wooooooo!
I so wish So was on

 

[johname]

I am a bit so so on woo's chances

 

[mis_chiff]

they're all creepy, should be called misfits instead of 2nd chances LOL

 

[johname]

I am glad Abi wasted no time getting into hot tamale mode

 

[johname]

This is the second time Spencer was save with a hasty regrouping of tribes.

Please no more Wigglesworth

 

[mis_chiff]

i can't stand abi's mouth omg let me at her!!!

 

[johname]

Someone else was wondering if Survivor was on during the World Series. Survivor traditionally only skips a week during Thanksgiving (USA) and The NCAA tourny.

 

[DU]

What's with the damn Food challenge?
I wish someone would get rid of Cass... she's like the opposite of Stacy's Mom

 

[DU]

I am glad Abi wasted no time getting into hot tamale mode

Based on today's show... I think she should be called Wigglesworth.....

 

[mis_chiff]

Have we picked our horses for this one?

 

[johname]

I am thinking it's time now that they merge next week

 

[mis_chiff]

hope Terry's kid is alright...nothing scarier when you get that call!!

 

[DU]
