He went full-on creeper with one of the female contestants, despite her very obvious lack of interest in him. I can remember wondering just how quickly security could intervene if things went south.

I don't know if it's mentioned at all below, but Probst said this on EW: "And on top of [making the idols difficult to find], we gave them the option to increase the power of the idol but it requires luck and risk: First, you must find a second idol or find someone else who has an idol. Then you must trust them enough…

I think we've seen people talk themselves into elimination when they were already one of two potential targets. I don't remember ever seeing the person who essentially gets to cast the deciding vote talk themselves into elimination.

The fun part is guessing which agency/local government was responsible for each portion of the sidewalk when you're trying to get somewhere. I've occasionally noticed a distinct line where you can tell the national park service took over from the local city government.

Follow-up questions, because I don't think I've ever met somebody else with the exact same situation:

Bad right ear solidarity upvote! Back when I was a kid, they offered to give me a hearing aide, but at that time, they were the huge, clunky kind and I refused to wear one. My hearing hasn't really regressed since then*, so I've made do.

The floating in mid-air jump>>>all other character-specific traits.

I've read that the genesis of the movement was things like this and grievances over perceived bias in parental custody issues during divorce, but they got quickly taken over by the overtly anti-female crowd, and have been the sea of assholes that we all know and love ever since.

You throw a bunch of garbage in their beer, but they can't tell because it's an IPA and the hops overpower everything?

They speed them up for about 20 seconds between 5:40 and 6:00 or so. They probably figured nobody would actually watch it for that long, but the joke's on them, because that's how long it took me to notice that I never stopped the video.

Your main problem is that Corellian Bloodstripes need to be earned for courage under fire.

A while back, we were in the middle of a move, and we were getting Comcast at the new place. We had a brief overlap where we had access to both our old and new place, and we had an appointment to get Comcast all set up about a day or two before we made the move.

My proudest moment, and I'm including my wedding and the birth of my two children in this, was the day I successfully argued my way out of a $560 early termination fee from DirecTV.

You should burn your entire office to the ground.

Careful, you're treading awfully close to me having to call imaginary child protective services. Xanax from your Crazy Puerto Rican friend? Come on, Ricky!

An old lady once yelled at me for giving her dirty coins as change. I had to fish out a cleaner nickel for her.

At the Supermarket I used to work at, all the customer needed to do was sign the check and we could run it through a machine that printed out all the other details. Of course, we'd show them the finished check so they could verify that it was correct.

A local bagel shop I frequented growing up in Northern NJ used to do red and green bagels at Christmas time. And then they would do light green and pink bagels in January, since apparently the dye took a while to work its way out of all of their equipment.

I'm glad Car Seat Headrest is keeping the proud naming-your-band-after-whatever-object-you-happen-to-see-first tradition alive.
