You don't mess with maestros!

God, I love Jeff Probst's blogs. Last night's episode post is a case in point. They're like- I don't even know what they're like. I cannot think of an analogue in any other fandom, because the thing is, even most embarrassingly up-front real-people have some level of shame, or pride. Jeff Probst doesn't. He has no filter and he has no desire to ( Read more... )

It's weird ... I haven't watched Survivor since, like, forty-seven seasons ago, and yet I still remember that I WILL ALWAYS WAVE MY FINGER IN YOUR FACE.

\o/

Um, and also, if you haven't seen the first episode of this season of TAR, you should do that. 'Cause it was actually really good. (I can't remember if you said you did or not, but ... yis. *nods decisively*)

It's been overplayed to death, and I KNOW that, and yet I keep tracking the scene down on YouTube over and over because it will never not be funny.

"I'M TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT YOU AND THE FUCKING CHICKENS!"

Also, yes! I totally watched. I liked more teams than I am used to liking. It was all very confusing.

Doesn't calling someone out require the Callee to have something she should be ashamed of?

The fact that you aren't ashamed doesn't mean that you SHOULDN'T BE.

Just because he's a douchebag doesn't mean he's unattractive.

Let me let you in on a little secret, dear Foxlet:

They don't have to talk.

THAT IS NOT WHERE I WAS GOING WITH IT AT ALL!

I would enjoy listening to him talk ALL DAY, because he is fast becoming my new favorite character/caricature. His Survivor posts are like reading Barney's Blog.

It's, you know, the rest of him, that causes pain.

But to be honest, I'd brag, too, if I was married to Eddie George. Heck, I'd pull a Heidi Klum and tattoo Eddie's name on my forearm. Yes, Heidi has a tattoo of her husband's name, ''Seal,'' on her forearm. That beautiful supermodel forearm with a huge tat of the word ''Seal.'' It's there. I know. I saw it. Yep. I've seen Heidi's naked forearm. Lots of times, in fact.

like I said, I just like being wet. Anytime it's raining, just know that I'm happy...and yes, a bit turned on. Is that wrong? Or weird? I recently had to take a required sexual harassment course and I'm pretty sure merely writing that last sentence constitutes sexual harassment on some level. Sorry if I've offended.

...omg.

I KNOW, RIGHT?

So, whom do you think Jeff was harassing in order for it to be required for him to take that course?

also:

From Timbira - Sierra. She's a fighter and I like that. Wouldn't that be weird if Sierra ended up married to a Survivor producer? How random would that be?

What's that about?

Probably Serena.

Also, you've missed nothing other than the fact that I gimped up my hand at work because I am absolutely graceless, and the vending machines that hold food stick way out (and are angled oddly) farther than the pop machines and thus get in my way when I'm walking along minding my own business.

Owwwwwwwwww.

Here, have this to make you feel less bad (and me feel worse):

What comes to mind when you look in a full-length mirror?
"Julie [Berry, his girlfriend and former Survivor contestant] told me that when I walk by the full-length mirror my body language changes. I stand up a little straighter, cock my head as if to say, 'Yeah, I got it going on.' Since I've been busted on that, I think of it any time I look in a mirror."

Also, he said "cock".

You promised naked probst. You gave me wet shirtless probst. I'm not complaining about that, mind you, but still. NOT AS ADVERTISED. >:(

Hey, it was in the Jane Magazine "Naked" issue.

I'm pretty sure there are actual naked Probst pictures out there, but you're going to have to be tracking that down, because I still value my eyes. I'm really only good for finding Ozzy, Penner, or half a dozen of the female castaways who went on to (/came from) Playboy.

I think I'm going to pour some bleach into my ears and hope that it somehow seeps into my brain and removes all knowledge of the fact that there is naked Penner somewhere out on the internets, and that you searched it out. Yeah, I hated him the first time he was on but came to love him on All Stars. HOWEVER. THERE IS NO REASON TO SEE HIM NAKED EVER.

Re: I just have to say something. fox1013 February 21 2009, 01:21:26 UTC
I didn't TRACK THEM DOWN. I just read a lot of Penner fan posts.

Also people posted a lot of "naked Ozzy vs. naked Penner" pics.

Also I have no excuse, except- YOU'RE WILLING TO LOOK AT NAKED PROBST. GLASS HOUSES!!! and stuff.
