Recap: Survivor: More Puzzling Than Ever - 
by B-side
Later on, Flicka babbled on and on and on about hanging out with different people on the tribe and how everyone gets along with everyone and blah blah blah. When she finally wrapped up her commentary (thirty five minutes later), Jeff noted that every time he asks her a question, it's "the most delightful answer with absolutely nothing said about how it would impact the game." That was his snippy way of saying, "Could you not waste every single minute of my life with your empty drivel???"
Finally, it was time to vote. I was highly amused by Jonathan's scrawl, which said "FLICKA," but kind of looked more like FUCKA. Oh, I really hoped she wasn't voted out now, just because I wanted to use the FUCKA nickname.

So close to perfection...

Ah, much better.
Anyway, we soon saw an absolutely disgusting image of a wet, nappy rat wandering around, and then at long last, it was time for the results. Nothing too shocking here. One vote for Jonathan (courtesy of Fucka), and the rest for Fucka (I'm totally using the name as much as possible now). Just like that, Fucka was sent home, which meant for the first time all season, whitey was voted off the island!

Bye, Friend Flicka.
Before sending the tribe off, Jeff then tried, as usual, to incite some agitation by noting that each tribe had six players left. If there were a merge, it was going to come down to momentum, he reasoned. Did Aitu have enough momentum? Because according to Jeff, Raro for sure thought it had the momentum. Shut up, Probst! Stop trying to make trouble!
Anyway, for all you counting, that brings the whites down to four, tying them with the Asians. Blacks are still holding steady at three, and then of course, there's Ozzy, the sole Latino. He may be the last man standing for his ethnicity, but it only takes one person to win the whole thing...
What did you think about this episode? Did Aitu make the right choice?

You got your byline back B- congrats! Thanks for the quick recap too, you rock!
I'm SO glad that they didn't vote Ozzie out. They need him in the challenges, and who knows when the merge is going to be so it's best not to burn your bridges too early. Fucka (LOL) was expendable and ratting out her tribe in front of Nate was stupid anyway. In the Asian/Asian puzzle competition, I guess Jenny wins b/c she was the reason that tribe pulled out a win. Can we leave Adam on Exile Island? It suits him.
Hottie Yul is the man in the challenges even when swimming with his glasses on, and Candace is proving herself to be the toughest female competitor. I hated to see Yul choking his booby, but I guess a guy's gotta eat!

I forgot to add that in the long run, Aitu's kidnapping of Nate was a good choice b/c they effectively blocked him from helping out HIS tribe by taking him out of the mix for Raro and then sitting him in the reward challenge.

That was hilarious, especially the screenshot captions!
Brad has been on the outs with his tribe for a while, I think, since he voted against Jenny at their last tribal council.
I'm so relieved they got rid of Flicka. I can't stand roller girls, and I love Ozzy and hope he wins the whole thing.

Finally a Whitey goes home.
Yul is so 'craveable.' Ozzy is so Tarzan...is there nothing this man can't do? If there were elephants on this Island Ozzy would be riding them.
I think Exile Island should be re-named "Time Out Corner" and the person should be forced to wear the Dunce Cap. It would be way funnier for me.
Thanks for the super-fast recap B-side but I really prefer bitching and moaning for days before it shows up....geez.

Maybe Brad didn't want to mess up his hair or something. I don't care how spacial and artsy he is, the dude's an Adonis. Him not swimming was insane. I thought Rebecca was going to die! Titties flailing all over the beach. But, there's nothing like a brutha in pigtails calling someone a homo. Nate, keeping it real.
I really wanted to hate Fredo, I mean Flicka, because I thought she was the second coming of heinous Courtney the fire dancer. But she was really just a retarded little sweetheart. The rest of the white people really bother me. Adam as Alley Oop couldn't be more accurate. Candace? What's her deal? I want to like her so much. She's a physical badass. But is she vapid or just a sneaky bitch? Add Jonathan to the list of people I would "do" but not want anyone to know about it. It's the voice, it's like buttah. There must be another white person, but I can't for the life of me think of who it could be. Let's face it, most of the people on this "Survivor- Race War Edition" are pretty fuckin' vanilla. Yawn.
Now Ozzy on the other hand... The dude is amazing. He's the one you'd "do" and tell everyone about it. You'd wear the t-shirt that said "I did Ozzy atop a coconut tree and loved every minute of it." Or something.

I wasn't too sad to see Fucka go home. I'm liking Nate more each week, he just seems real to me. And yeah, I'd do Ozzy and wear the T-shirt.

Oh, B-Side. You are the funniest man ALIVE. And I, for one, LOVE it when you fixate on details and ramble. There cannot be too much B-Side.
I would do Ozzy and take out a full-page ad to announce it.

LQ - the other white one is Adam-Soars-With-Turkeys.
Ozzy - I'd hit that, wear the shirt, take out the ad, and sell the videos.

Didn't Adam go to Virginia Tech? The land of the Hokie bird? (which is in fact a big turkey..... ;)
My husband and I were cracking up when Yul was wearing his glasses down the zip line into the water. How did he not lose them?
And Ozzy is nature boy. Jeez, he's fantastic out there, it's insane

Coach Probst has issues with Poverty. If he could I think he would make her run win sprints or hail mary's or something. He is always on her case int he challenges.
and Ozzy -- yeah..he's just primal...and that's hot. I hope he wins it all too...I'm jsut glad he's thinking strategy now.

Come on! First you take away the "All Pages" link then you take away the "Print" button so we have to go through all the pages. I hope its a mistake, if not, then it's bullshit.

Apparently there are already videos out there of Ozzy . . . of the "Playboy" variety. I think I would have preferred JP - Ozzy seems like he would be too creative and abnormally flexible for my taste.

Yes, Laurie, Adam did indeed go to VA Tech. Gobble, gobble. Since I went to a rival school, I've hated him from day one and I'm glad that it has been proven to be justified. Loved the part where B-side called him a big asshole.
I was glad that Flicka went home--thank GOD, I will never have to see those awful blue thigh highs again... Now can we please get rid of Jonathan and the whiny voice??
And I'm with Coach Propst, I can't stand Poverty either.
Let's see, do I like anyone left on the show? Yul is pretty cool even with the glasses and Ozzy rocks.

This was the best "Survivor" recap ever! I laughed the whole way through!
A minor peeve, but one that's grating on my nerves: it's PAR-va-tee, not POVERTY. Every time Jeff calls her that, I cringe. On the other hand, I don't like the girl, so why do I care if people screw up her name?
I'm rooting for Yul. Actually, I'm rooting for anyone but Parvati.

HicksPub is unable to post for some reason. Who knew HicksPub was such a radical to be banned from TVgasm. Anyhoo, here's what HicksPub had to say about B-Side's great recap: OMG, you people are cracking me up about jungle-freak-boy. He's just a loincloth away from being signed by Disney Pictures.
I'm hoping that Ozzy, Yul and Candace (yeah, she's a badass) go far. They are fun to watch for completely different reasons.
And I love it when Coach Probst heckles people during comps and stirs up shit during TC. He was just an agitator the entire show.

I agree, Lizardqueen, Ozzy is the one to do and then crow about it. But while I enjoyed seeing Fucka go, I'm thinking Ozzy will be hard to beat after the merge. Dude will mop the floor with these people. Or should that be sand? I still would have voted Fucka off, though. Sweet retard or not she was a wild card. You can't trust the flakes in this game.
And B-Side, who said your recaps were too long? That person should bite their tongue. I enjoy a good B-Side ramble. Sorry, didn't mean that to sound dirty.

I don't know why everyone was so mad at Brad for not swimming. Okay, maybe he should have swam but Rebecca deserves to go. She didn't even TRY. Even up at the beach she was just acting like she was on vacation taking a leisurely stroll along the beach.
I really hope Ozzy or Yul wins. And honestly, Ozzy probably deserves to win. Is there anything he can't do?

Ozzy shall now be called "Mowgli." Seriously, that dude must have been born and raised in the wilderness!
I just KNEW that pic of Yul & Candice was going to make it! As soon as the camera shot to them I was laughing so hard because of how intense the both of them looked, hugging each other for warmth.
I would think that they would need JENNY as a swimmer before Rebecca. She was soooo winded after those 2 laps, so winded that she had to lay down for the rest of the competition while Poverty & Adam picked up her slack. Why did no one make that comment? Although Brad made a big deal about doing the puzzles, I think he was fairly right.. the last part of the challenges is when teams tend to choke up.
I think Nate is just quick to point out things, and everyone else follows suit to save their own asses. Such as the Stephanie comment about craving mashed potatoes (if only she had stayed just a little bit longer..), etc. He's the team instigator and everyone is just looking for the next scapegoat.
Can I say it any more.. YUL IS A BEAST! Look at that body.. I'm in love for sure.

I was calling Ozzy Mowgli too! I hated him the first couple weeks, but he has definitely grown to be one of my faves.
Notice how every time they Jonathan, they show rats?

Ozzy is growing on me too! Lord it kills me to type that. Although, I hate the "you won't eat if you vote me off" strategy. People do that every season and it never helps them. They always find food once the hunter is gone... they just gripe and moan about having to find it.
I personally loved Becky telling the camera that after the challenge they "really didn't need Jonathan". Now I'm not saying he's the greatest, or that they really do need him, but she did realize they lost, right? Maybe Yul, Ozzy & Candice don't need him, but the three putting together the puzzle could have used his help. Oh wait... that includes Becky. I fear she is going to be the useless one who makes it to the end on the heels of Yul.
B-side, you make these recaps as long as you want. You crack me up!

yul. is. so. hot. oh my god, with those glasses on? i am really rooting for him. i think he's a good competitor and he just seems really nice and genuine as well. i don't want becky to ride on his game all the way either, but i think it would be sweet if she got voted off and he saved her with the immunity idol.

Yo Brad, why do you think that you're "spatial"? What? Your mother told you that? No no no, dummy. She said that you're special, not spatial. Asian accents, heh....
....
Sorry, that was corny. I must have had too much peanut butter. How else could I explain my urge to say silly things and randomly kiss people?

I haven't been watching the show, but since I was killing time reading the recap ('cause they're funny on their own), I went to the official Survivor page to put faces with the names and I found out that Yul is a lawyer who has a JD from Yale. WTF is he doing on reality TV? Of course, he's only been our of law school for about six years and it sounds like he can't settle into a job. Wonder what's up with that.

Great recap, B-side. No, never let it be said yours is too long.
"Everyone agreed that it was best to eat the fowl, which meant they had to wake up poor Yul, who was apparently the tribe butcher". For some reason that cracked me up. Like most people in the U.S. no one likes to see the dirty work involved in putting food in front of us. We have the most antiseptic food stores in the whole world and food processing of the kind involving animals is NEVER discussed, unless your in-laws turn into PETA members.
Ozzy, what can I say. I hated to see some of the wrong people win while the heroes pushed them along through the game, but the motto says it all: "Oulast, Outwit and..."what the hell else? Wish we had an option like BB and vote someone back in the game.

Two reasons I love TVgasm are the screen cap of Nate and the one of Yul & Candice. Priceless.

I hope it comes down to Ozzy and Yul. Why oh why did that gal where a bikini? EWWWW the one in which she popped out of her top. The girls are worthless also.

I never really liked Ozzy in the beginning (I thought he was a slimy little worm) but he has become one of my favorites as well. And Yul has been my fave from the beginning. I also like Jonathan, despite the fact that nobody else seems to, and Candace - she has been awesome in the past couple of challenges and has gained major respect.
Go Yul and Ozzy! Yul is still my personal favorite (he is totally ripped, smart, nice and sweet) but I wouldn't be sad if Ozzy won either.
