This episode reminded me why I hated him so much on Blood vs. Water. Fuck Culpepper.

This is the first Final Tribal in YEARS that hasn't bored me to goddamn death. I like the new format a lot and I think it cuts down on jury bitterness a bit to hear other perspectives.

That I will hand to him. As tired as I am of Ozzy and his bullshit, I did say "Right On!" to that. Even if it did kind of come out of nowhere :)

The hypocrisy of the other players saying "oh you formed a relationship with me and then stabbed me in the back" makes me want to punch some of them. That's Survivor, and you did the exact same things. You're just bitter that it didn't work out for you.
I've always loved Michaela, but I think that's because I can see…

The Black Widow alliance begs to differ.

You're right, that's exactly why. He beat Ozzy AND Ozzy's record in that challenge.

I feel like of course Ozzy would want to validate the challenge beast, because that's what he *thinks* Survivor *is* - just look at the way he went out - bitching and taunting them about how they wouldn't have their provider anymore. Fuck right off, dude.
To me, Ozzy represents everything the game used to be, while…

Yes, I do know she was convicted of Bank Robbery, but she wasn't convicted of the many, many, many, many other crimes she committed during her time with the SLA because she was under duress. Stockholm Syndrome is a thing.

That's exactly what I said upthread somewhere.

Speaking of shit dangling plot threads… what the hell happened to, and who the hell is, Vigilante?

Ok, why didn't everyone just swim out into the water when they realised that the airplane wouldn't work. I kind of feel like that would have been the easiest way to escape an island set to explode. After the kaboom, you trek around the island to the Argus boat.

Yes, you're right, I actually am going to say that you're being condescending because of the tone of your writing and your personal attacks. I think the person who doesn't understand here is the one who doesn't fully understand the human condition and their propensity to deny the things they see in front of them.
Maybe…

The point of my analogy is that doing something under duress does not carry the same culpability. Yes, people were drafted into the military, but many chose to enlist as well. This is the reason that child soldiers in Africa aren't treated like war criminals, but victims. Patty Hearst is another one - guilty as sin,…

No, it actually doesn't. I bet the Germans never thought a Holocaust could happen there. The US' slide into authoritarianism & kleptocracy… why that could never happen in America! Hell, the Romans probably never thought the empire would fall until it was crumbling all around them.
That what those words literally mean.

So if a man puts a gun to a woman's head and says he'll blow her brains out if she doesn't have sex with him, would you call that consensual? No. It's rape. Obviously that woman isn't going on to commit murders like Natalie did, but being forced to kill others just isn't the same as making the choice to enlist in the…

People always say "it could never happen here" until it does.

Well, unless Barry Allen goes back to save his mother and fucks up the timeline again, I'm feeling pretty good about it.

Yeah, I kind of feel like if anyone deserves what Wally went through, it's Barry at this point. Like, I get that you're not evil, bro, but you've done more to fuck with time than the goddamn Legion of Doom.

Crazy Alt-Barry

I always thought Felicity & Barry were perfect for each other.
