It's cool, he's a pro wrestler and probably did a wrestling kick where nobody gets hurt but it looks crazy.

The funny thing is that John was trying to wrestle people to slow them down but he ended up last on the mat anyway.

He's tiring them out by forcing them to grapple him and I guarantee he's got better cardio then them so it's a war of attrition that he's gonna win.

Butt first, let's

It just didn't seem terribly valid in this comp from either Pat or Johnny's perspective. The second leg was one person and the third leg was fairly simple. You're only tiring them out for that first obstacle course leg and no matter how effective you are you're maling yourself the last one out.

But it was funny. I'm sad Pat won't be around to try and wrestle the wrestler more.

We have to get great moments with John now because he's going to run out of calories in 2 episodes.

Johnny BodyFat does seem like he kind of made the cardinal mistake of coming into Survivor totally jacked instead of with a little pot belly. He definitely seems like a candidate to be unable to get out of bed due to lack of food by the tribe swap or the one who eats everything and pisses everyone off and gets voted out.

Thankee kindly.
I love that the Davids are gonna be portrayed as the 'underdogs' and we're supposed to be rooting for them, because that just means I'm gonna root for the Goliaths and cheer when they win four or five straight challenges and Probst vainly tries to spin it into some 'c'mon Davids, stop being terrible and conquer adversity! Play to our theme!'.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
I hope we get enough Johnny Mundo to get him into a balance challenge because those are what usually meant to nerf the strong guys a bit.

It was especially funny when the Davids were getting a very kind, we're-all-in-this-together edit while the Goliaths were tearing each other apart and then immediately everything goes wrong for the Davids in the final third

I didn't know anything about Johnny Mundo before this season but he seems nicer than Cole. I expect him to fall on his sword honorably and die out there rather than be a dick to the rest of them.

I'm not sure how I'm feeling this season so far, but I'll keep watching. It was hard to sit through a season opener with people sobbing and disclosing their troubled pasts all night during a storm.

I've never liked the crying on Survivor, but I guess they're humans and I'm just a dick. It might be easier to deal with if they didn't cue the corny soft piano music just as the emotional moments start.

I'm not knocking it! I just feel awkward for the people whose reactions are being filmed. If it's in a confessional, I'm all about that. But to watch groups of people hear about one castaways's abuse experiences, etc, I just feel weird about it.

I don’t care about her actual physical appearance. She looks goofy as gently caress on an island in a big rear end hat and belt buckle. And she always has this awful “aww shucks” look.

E: mostly she just triggers memories of every yokel religious weirdo I see when the state fair is going on
