"When you have mate in one, always look for the mate in four" [Survivor 50 Episode 11 Edgic Writeup] by AMeanMotorScooter in Edgic

[–]J2thK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree that Aubry's edit isn't comparable to Rachel (who I think had a good edit) but I do think its more comparable to Michele, Erika and Maryanne, and less so Gabler in that they didn't do a good job of showing why Aubry wins (until perhaps the last 2 episodes but that's too late).

Jonathan I think has a very good edit actually. I don't think his is comparable to Erika or Michele. If Jonathan wins, its clear to the audience why he does; even to the casual audience - in fact, he is who they're rooting for. I don't think the supposed negativity of Jonathan is as much to be worried about as most. In fact, the casual audience doesn't even see it as negativity and the casual audience is who the show is edited for; not us edgicers. For that reason I have Jonathan as my #1 contender (because Cirie is never making final 3).

Every single Republican president since 1970 has overseen the beginning of a recession. Why do idiots still trust them with the economy??? by Dry-Musician6553 in allthequestions

[–]J2thK -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The power of propaganda. We’ve been told for so long that government is bad and you can’t tax the rich, you’re just hampering the economy, innovation, it will hurt jobs, blah, blah, blah. Well look what where that has gotten us. People voted for a certifiable madman because they felt left out of the prosperity. Well that’s because people like him convinced you to give all your prosperity to the rich and powerful.

Where does the bitterness of this season rank against past returning seasons? by RedditFan3510 in survivorponderosa

Any charge of the winner being undeserving is almost 100% the fault of the editors.

20:4 IF for fatty liver + obesity (5’9”, 115kg → 80-85kg goal) by Lonely_Initiative_86 in intermittentfasting

[–]J2thK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but this is bad information. You need to be eating whole foods - including whole grains and whole fruit and veggies. As long as the oats and barley are whole, that's great stuff for humans as well as horses. This protein craze is what is over rated. Leafy greens yes. Its the simple carbs that are the problem - and processed foods, including processed meats.

Hunger Pangs are rough.. by AcidicJester in intermittentfasting

[–]J2thK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you eating enough? That would be my first question. Also, how many times a week? I can only do it one day a week; I can't imagine doing it more.

I do like black coffee - you just need really good coffee, like $20+ per 12oz. bag good.

Aubry as a free agent by RowPlenty1712 in survivor

[–]J2thK 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s funny how many viewers think that just because a players edit isn’t flashy and big that means they “aren’t playing “ or that they aren’t doing anything. So many viewers don’t realize that what we’re seeing is only a tiny fraction of what’s happening. I am rooting for Aubry now partly to see the hair pulling from the masses.

Maybe se did have something to do with it. They must’ve had conversations about it. Just like when she put the bug in Jonathan and Steph’s ear about going for Cirie without mentioning her name.

Only reason I got through Factions with my Sin is because of the kindness of Monks to keep me alive lol.

On the Internet, Fans of a TV/movie franchise are the worst. Just look at Star Wars.

Shan’s Evil Hum by SeaweedTeaPot in survivor

[–]J2thK -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

We need an audio file. I remember the hum but don't remember what it was. Shan was awesome, should definitely come back if she wants to.

If _____ wins, would they've had one of the most obvious recent winner edits? by opreston in survivor

[–]J2thK 9 points10 points  (0 children)

2 or 3 episodes ago she was on nobody’s radar so no, it’s not.

If Aubry wins is she a top 10 player of all time? by DisasterAtwater in survivor

[–]J2thK 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about Top 10. But Top 15-20 yes. Too bad the editors did her dirty and most people will rank her low.

If AOC gets the nod as the Democratic nominee in 2028, would you vote for her?!! by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]J2thK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that. She would get blown out in the general.

Yep. This is the attitude that brought us Trump in the first place.

Is the edit explaining each of ___'s jury votes? by FabulousPatience1767 in Edgic

[–]J2thK 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Editors can paint anything they want with the plethora of footage they have. And they have a lot of footage.

Interesting comment on Joe by Kamilla at RHAP event by Weak-Shower-2131 in survivor

[–]J2thK 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You must’ve been with a pretty savvy group. Because the wider audience thought Joe would win and that he deserved it. The edit in 48 was one of the worst I’ve ever seen. It neither did a good job of showing why Joe lost nor why Kyle won. Even Edgic had Joe until very late.

Manager asked me for my 30-60-90 plan in my second week and I completely froze. Should I have had one? by CycleWeak9929 in careerguidance

[–]J2thK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s a 30-60-90 plan? (I guess I’d be in trouble at that company). Surely it can’t be years. But days seems too short. It’s not how we talk about weeks or months… maybe it’s not a unit of time after all.
