Counselor, You Are In Contempt!
Christmas is away...again. But the boys will still play. And we got to have a friend come over this time.
In a very special episode of BuffsOff, Ryan from the Blog joins us on the show (but we don't confront teen drug use, destructive friendships, or inappropriate touching - sorry)
Even though we're guessing the majority of fandom is begging for something to blow this show up, we were treated to another predictable vote on the islands last night. If nothing else though, Alex showed some real heart trying to stay in the game.
Complete, complete side note, and a topic that clearly can only be discussed by the blog fans, but can someone explain to me Rocky's walk?? Have you noticed this? Walks like he's got bricks in his armpits and a lead pipe jammed up his arse! And I can't believe I'm saying this, but I almost miss him at this point.
Enough of this, on to the show!

ok, so i hope this gets read by the on air crew prior to the next episode. let me pause to wipe the tears and my, well i will stop there, use your imagination. or dont if you would rather spare yourself.
well, it looks like my winning horse pick just got barbaro-ed. but all the blame can and should be placed squarely on stacy's head. she had the votes, but just like last week with the pork, she couldnt keep her trap shut-the trap where words are excreted that is. probst got her to reveal the thought that votes could be split which led to yao playing the idol, thus her ass is gone. stupid! all you say to the question of "how is the game going to be different after tonight" is to simply say something to the effect of "i dont believe that i will still be around, so it will be up to the other 5 to turn on each other." and then presto! the car curse lives on, because dreamz didnt win the truck, and yao (who did) goes home. side note: why give the car to someone who cant drive? why not give a deaf person a radio? makes about as much sense to me....
i will post more about my thoughts on that later, i am too depressed by not picking the winner for the 13th time (i got ethan right, but only when i knew who the final 2 were) and need to drown my sorrows watching a dvd i compiled of every moment stacy had screen time this season. and yes the dvd skips in a few places.
i will leave you with that thought until next time.

Thanks for sitting in with us this week. I have to agree with the early thing. Way too early to be awake.
Sterling is a bitch about the Myspace thing. I had to stand over him until he added me, so don't feel bad.
I'm with you on cassandra. that beached manatee needs to go home.

well i guess i really turned off the listeners filling in for our resident hottie christmas. sorry guys; maybe i was inaccurately portrayed (inside joke to the truest of survivor fans-i dont really think that).
i really wanted to thank you guys again for having me on, and to add to a few thoughts that i wasnt thinking fast enough to bring up during the taping...it was earlier than i am accustomed to and my brain was a little slow, and judging by my voice that came through loud and clear.
anyhow, here we go...
stacy's total of 4.2 pounds of pork was impressive and not to belabor the point but she showed some meddle in leaning in and taking the facial that is the main reason i lost sleep that night.
boo has become a huge player in the game, possibly more powerful than earl or yao. and with earl finally realizing that he needs to eliminate yao, boo could very well be the key vote.
cassandra sucks more than the mouthful of meat that stacy had on her plate. i got a little crossed up in trying to bash her verbally so i will take a moment to put it into written words. she appears to be third on the depth chart in both yao and earls plans, with earl and yao being ahead, and either dreamz or stacy depending on who is pitching the idea. alex gave her on a plate top 2 with him, he put her ahead of dreamz and stacy and boo. if the five of them could recognize that earl and yao are a little to sure of themselves and should have taken one of the two out.
quick side note, when alex is planting the seed (stop it, no gutter minds!) to her he says that he doesnt see yao taking dreamz to the end. her response is "i kinda had a feeling that he (meaning yao) was playing to win." ????? who the fuck is not playing to win you stupid cow?! god i hate her. anyway back to the point.
she could have gone the path of the ninja and solidified herself as a frontrunner for the top 2, instead she is still 3rd out. and hopefully gets the shaft in the final vote where the players still in the game have any power. if you are confused you can find an outline in the previous episode's blog posts.
as for rocky, i stopped paying attention to him the moment he opened his mouth and said his first words on the show in episode 1, for the simple reason that i fucking hate that accent worse than cassandra at the moment. however knowing how he was voted out, i dont know why he should have any beef with any of the people left, other than dreamz. dreamz is the only one who had a hand in voting him out. so my impressions are that he wants to try to come up with the most spiteful, zinging jury question/comment ever on the show, but the best he will be able to come up with is "i want to know why anthony wears tighty whiteys, let me finish, no shut up you dont get to explain yourself to me even though i asked you a question! adrian!"
i am still going to ride my kentucky derby entry stacy's mudflaps for the victory because i think that she is going to maybe win an immunity, convince boo to vote with her and yao (they made an "agreement" an episode ago, maybe 2, check it though its there) and possible get rid of earl, though i would like to see them send home dreamz. at that point she can team up with yao to vote out one more, possibly boo or earl, keeping cassandra only because she is no threat at any challenge, immunity or otherwise, and then send her packing. alternate scenario would be to get earl to turn on yao, using boo in her back pocket with dreamz, then use boo and dreamz to vote out cassandra, followed by earl and then have the onionbag to tell the jury that she should win because of one reason, that she played the game better than everyone else. although the rockheads on the jury will probably vote based on personal feelings so boo would win, which would piss me off. but she would have dreamz and boo with her in a final three and i dont like dreamz' stock with the jury due to his flopping on every alliance he was a part of and like the point brought up on the show, boo would be the fastest to piss the million away. also think of the production that cash could buy for her internet projects. webcams anyone?
i am also working on a bit of a surprise that, fingers crossed, will be ready for the finale. i will give a no hints, just a link when i have it posted.
ps by the way, i am only missing one of the buffs off crew on myspace, so please sterling add me to your friends. there is a spot in my top 6890 that has your name on it!
answer to my previous trivia question....
name the survivor to wear 7 tribe buffs. the answer is of course rupert...he wore the drake blue, morgan orange (when he was a temporary member) and the balboa black on pearl islands, and saboga yellow, chapera red, mogo mogo green (when the tribes switched and only amber stayed the same) and the chapoga mogo blue.
new question this week...
who are the survivors that had the game end for them even though they received zero votes at their last tribal council?
hint....you may omit any and all quitters (osten, janu, sue and jenna m) and jonathan and wanda from palau since they were not picked for a tribe and thus did not really participate.)
answer to come next week, hope someone can find the answer and shock me, but i doubt it.
sorry this is so long but i have had six days to self critique my performance and wanted to throw in everything i couldnt get to last friday...damn time constraints!
