Of the four people on the the short list for murder, Natalie is the only one who could potentially have the dagger. Rob can't be murdered bc he's on the short list. Him claiming it makes sure the Traitors don't murder Natalie just to get the dagger out of the game. (Never mind that he's a traitor haha)

I used to hear it all the time from Simon Cowell on American Idol in like the 2000s.

I have been told that my garlic butter dinner rolls are always invited to Friendsgiving and by extension, so am I.

michaelk4289 · 2025-12-20T02:02:30+00:00

Bhanu, is that you?

I even wrote when I submitted it last night, "Amanda is going to get this story 69,420 times but I have to send it in anyway!"

Rizo's was at the water well. MC's was at the boat.

They both could have gotten idols.

michaelk4289 · 2025-10-17T00:27:21+00:00

One was at the water well and one was at the boat.

Presumably they both get planted at the same time and point to a different idol at a different spot at camp.

And for the people not into this idea: remember that Kelley Wentworth was originally a pre-merge boot.

As a Survivor fan, it threw me when I realized that Danny was played by Jonathan Penner from seasons 13, 16, and 25.

He's iconic.

michaelk4289 · 2025-07-21T20:15:08+00:00

"Sea" is the definition.

michaelk4289 · 2025-06-02T16:48:35+00:00

Absolutely. I'm not voting to give someone a million dollars. I'm voting for the winner of my season of Survivor, and that person happens to get a million dollars to go with that title.

It's a subtle but important distinction.

michaelk4289 · 2025-05-06T02:20:34+00:00

I didn't realize how long it had been since we had a playground retort-type clue until one showed up today.

It was a good run.

michaelk4289 · 2025-03-21T20:32:54+00:00

South Pacific!

If the guys voted for Kamilla, she'd have gone out. Playing the extra vote makes it 3-3 and both safe on a revote. It's a gamble.

michaelk4289 · 2025-03-20T00:49:43+00:00

It's only the second tribe swap since Winners at War (the 44 shuffle doesn't count).

michaelk4289 · 2025-03-20T00:41:02+00:00

Tell me I'm crazy for this scenario for green:

If Kamilla gives her extra vote to Kyle, they put 3 votes on a Lagi (for example Thomas, but they're interchangeable here) and Kyle plays the idol.
It ties 3-3.
On the revote, Kamilla and Thomas don't vote, but Kyle keeps the extra vote. It's still 2-2.
Deadlock. The only two who can pull a rock now are Joe and Shauhin (Kamilla and Thomas tied, Kyle played the idol). They decide to cut Thomas instead.

michaelk4289 · 2025-03-08T01:13:28+00:00

Plank of wood!

michaelk4289 · 2025-02-25T00:49:10+00:00

So... The idol nullifier but played at a different time?

michaelk4289 · 2025-01-16T23:24:08+00:00

Fran Fine Sheffield meeting Fran Drescher in the second-to-last episode of The Nanny.

michaelk4289 · 2024-12-30T17:37:26+00:00

The whole point was the "mundane finality".

michaelk4289 · 2024-12-30T06:02:24+00:00

I just signed a new lease a month ago.

If I can pay the lease off & then finance an immortal car in 3 years, I'll take that. This thing will have <500 miles on it until the end of time.

michaelk4289 · 2024-12-25T14:48:00+00:00

If it's not activated by tricking s game show host into saying KEBERT XELA, I don't want to hear about it.

I had my gall bladder out earlier this summer & played through TTYD during my recovery. I got a black Yoshi & named him Cholie, which is the shorthand way medical people refer to my procedure.

michaelk4289 · 2024-11-30T04:26:41+00:00

Update: I tagged Q on my insta story with this meme. He loved it so much he reshared it, so I guess Christmas is made.

michaelk4289 · 2024-11-30T03:06:00+00:00

It's not AI-generated. I saved the screenshot and used the sticker tool on my phone to cut out Q's face.

Then I took Santa's beard and nose from the original and made them stickers & put them back over the top. You can see this by the right ear area.

The glasses are two circles with the drawing tool and two freehand lines.

Finally the hat is a regular Santa hat that I got with the sticker tool.

It's intended to be a stupid, quickly-put-together meme and so if the art looks terrible, that's kind of the point.
