Get This Thing Out of My Crotch! - 
by J-Unit
I have decided I am going to start my recap of the latest episode of Real World/Road Rules Challenge: Battle of the Sexes 2 without the usual complaints about how the men are boring and the women only things keeping the show moving. Then again, I guess by mentioning that I am not going to mention it, I really actually did mention it, which meant I should have simply mentioned it at the beginning in the first place. Oh whatever. Things start off an a high note as Coral and Robin are discussing things over a Slurpee. When I saw Shawn last week with a slurpee, I simply thought the producers had let them off of their compound in order to get something at a 7-11. Even in their secluded spot in Santa Fe, their needs to be a place to get cigarettes, so it wasn't a stretch to see somebody with a slurpee. To my surprise, it turns out the producers had supplied them with a machine to make their own slurpees. I guess they feel that anybody surviving the liver disease they acquired by drinking so much on the show would fall to their deaths from the insular shock(or "too much sugar" to use the parlance of our times) of drinking corn syrup and food coloring all of the time.
What kind of argument happens around a slurpee machine? Well, the kind of argument that Coral likes to start, of course. Coral has become a little leery at all of the independent voices in the house that may not think she is entitled to make it to the end without contention. No, some of her team actually had the guts to think about playing the game fair. This juggernaut going after the Coral included Robin, Ibis, and Aneesa. Katie wanted to stick it to Coral because Coral had Veronica on her side, and she and Katie are pretty much mortal enemies, despite all the talk about them not hating each other. Now, we know that Aneesa, at least from her previous votes is not so much about fairness as she is about keeping with consensus. And Ibis? She also made her decisions based on what would antagonize the least amount of people. This new groups wasn't really all high and mighty, but once a lot the women saw how a couple of people basically conspired to get rid of Angela, they opened their eyes.
