To be fair though, the whole "forgetting" thing seems like it would be pretty easy to do. I feel like I wouldn't have any idea what day it was out there.

There will undoubtedly be some pairs working with other pairs, but it makes no real sense for all the pairs to stick together and wait till the end to get out rivals. All that does is postpone the votes for a little bit allowing for uncertainty and potential shifting of alliances between the pairs. Unless you are…

This is only my second year playing and again I'm mid-pack not having lost anyone before the merge. Hopefully Jeremy can get some immunity wins, because my hopes for Reed and Baylor are being slowly crushed. And Dale, well all he seems good for at the moment is faking immunity idols and calling women he's just met…

Eughh Dale's reaction to the rice cooking was really gross. Like if you have a problem with the way someone else is cooking rice, maybe you should talk it out with them instead of huffing in a corner and resorting to misogynistic slurs…. Just saying! All he had to do was have a normal conversation with Missy and…

I mean food issues are always a big deal on Survivor. HvV and the green bananas, Gabon and the cookie war at auction, whatever season it was where 2 guys drank the last bottle of wine in the outhouse (I should know this, I just rewatched that season, but I'm drawing a total blank), the multiple seasons where someone…

That's probably true, but j2's kisses lasted forever in weird pecks… Blah!

The one where they showed tiny bits of scenes from the whole season you mean? That one did show Wes crying, but it was from the immunity challenge where he beat his dad and they had a cryfest.

Nope. There is way too much hot pink in there. It kind of looks like a mardi gras necklace to me just also a rosary…

Reed was following the vote out people without loved ones plan that started with Jon and which he forgot about apparently

Like what was he doing?! it was particularly noticeable when he went to dive and just kind of always flung his arms up randomly and then just jumped in…

Yes I had thought of the potential Colton similarity, but again that was a very different dynamic.

Just a few thoughts…

Yeah I think it was a perfect encapsulation of the difference between a good goat and bad goat. And why choosing a goat isn't as easy as just picking the guy no one likes.

Her hair! I seriously just spent so much of that season watching her swing her hair around. How did she keep it so shiny and clean and untangled?!

I tried to watch Thailand a month or two ago and I couldn't get past the first couple of episodes particularly knowing that it apparently was just going to get worse. Just terrible!

Ohhhh JT and Stephen were the best! I really need to rewatch that season. I'll have to give it a little while though cause I just rewatched Survivor South Pacific and god Coach is so freaking ANNOYING!

His eyes are SOO close together that he always kind of looks like a cartoon character that just got whapped in the face to me.

All the yes! The utility of smaller tribe mates is seriously underestimated!

I really like Julie actually (despite the whole dating John Rocker thing cause eww). I will say I did contemplate pickfour-ing her after the first episode and the imminent downfall of Val but I already felt I was going out on a limb of hope with Baylor (One I don't think will be rewarded after this episode, but we'll…

Right. So while Val potentially could have found it, the likelihood was slim. CBS showed an additional scene with both Val and Jaclyn looking for it, but considering it was 7 steps away from the well (which she didn't know or in which direction) that's a LOT of ground to cover.
