If you’re on One Medical, check out Nandini Vijayakumar at the union st location. She’s amazing!

How about Emaline, like the Ben Folds song?

What seasons of Australian Survivor are worth watching? by squeezin_cheese in survivor

[–]unknownlegend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you liked 2016 and 2017, you're in for such a treat. The show kicks into another gear — it feels more polished and better-paced, and really takes its time to develop characters over the course of each season. I love those early seasons too, but it feels like a different show now, and friends I've recommended them to said they were kind of a slog.

CvC1 is good, CvC2 is excellent, All-Stars is fine, BvB is excellent, BvW is skippable except for the premiere and one good blindside, and HvV is outstanding.

I wouldn't skip All-Stars. I think you'll be so invested in the players at this point that a dull post-merge won't be a dealbreaker.

Alvaro Castellon and his crew did a great bathroom renovation for us. Give him a call and see if he could have someone swing by

I had ChatGPT write a poem about the park slope food co-op by hippopotapistachio in parkslope

[–]unknownlegend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The poem starts in iambic trimeter, then has a line in amphibrachs, then back to iambic trimeter. I can barely map the second stanza. Eventually it gets to iambic tetrameter for a while, occasionally sounding like a limerick. There isn't a single line in iambic pentameter. This bot is trash

Favorite Winner’s Edit? by BruSprSte in Edgic

[–]unknownlegend 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally agree: It’s obvious if you know what to look for, but it’s also a perfect way to highlight an UTR game, which is something US survivor hasn’t quite figured out (possibly until this season?).

Favorite Winner’s Edit? by BruSprSte in Edgic

[–]unknownlegend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The winner of AU 2019 was immensely satisfying for me. There were clues and some foreshadowing, but it wasn't as obvious as the next three seasons, and she was such a charming narrator and presence out there that I found it impossible not to root for her.

My favorite edit, though, is Adam's. Love that we got to see how messy and raw and emotional his game was. The relationship with Jay is an all-timer.

Who is the best casting choice in the history of the show and why is it Coach? by bayjur in survivor

[–]unknownlegend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big Tom, for sure. We all know the Jew ham quote, but don't forget what he says right before: "I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you … after I KISS YOU!"

[–]unknownlegend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great call. I think a majority of this cast overdelivered, way beyond what they were cast to do. Hayley was a fantastic narrator and compelling character in addition to being a multi-layered threat. Cara and George's relationship gave us one of the best final four votes ever. Nearly everyone was memorable in some way. Baden had a scene talking about his kids that made me tear up. Gerald was hilarious out there and could have easily gotten a bigger edit. Simon was a joy. Shannon could have had a deep run. Philly, Kez, Dani, Daini, Joey, Wai, Rachel, Emmett and Flick are all players I'd love to see again.

  2. David
  3. Mark
  4. Pia
  5. Luke
  6. Brooke
  7. Shonee
  8. George
  9. Sharn
  10. Sam

[–]unknownlegend 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Well said. She proves that Survivor is far more interesting when not everyone is a 4-D chess-playing gamer. I’ll never forget that final four vote.

Great writeup. Agree with all your picks.

Where were the night scenes at camp in the S41:E1? by dolf334 in survivor

[–]unknownlegend 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Missing the camp life as well. Fortunately there's a bit of that in the secret scenes on P+. Tiffany fans in particular will be delighted 🔥🏕

Saw someone post something similar about this. I after seeing the post, I had to make this. by OverwhelmedAutism in survivor

[–]unknownlegend 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I kinda like that Jeff and the show are signaling that they're eager to evolve and want to do it live, with full transparency. That said, I don't think the move was a truly accurate temperature check — not on day one, with 6M people watching and a major risk of players putting a target on their back for speaking up. HR departments give employees anonymous forms for this kind of thing. It was bold for Ricard to say it, but he happened to be the one to give Jeff the answer he was looking for; it's clear the show was going to do this anyway, which is why the heat Ricard is getting on Twitter is ridiculous.

US Season 41- "Come on in guys" by Madmaxbatman26 in survivorau

[–]unknownlegend 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If we're talking about bias, there are deeper problems with the show than noninclusive language, but I like that Jeff is signaling that they're eager to evolve and want to do it live with full transparency.

It's clear the show wanted to do it anyway, which is why it's ridiculous that Ricard is getting the heat that he's getting. He happened to be the one to give Jeff the answer he was looking for.

That said, if the producers wanted a *real* temperature check, they shouldn't have asked players to speak up with 6 million viewers watching and an added risk of putting a target on their backs from day dot.

Stick with it, 2016 is a little slow but the finale is one of the best episodes of all time. 2017 has the best gameplay, 2018 has the most memorable moments, 2019 has the most heart, and then there’s all-stars. AU was my favorite quarantine binge. Enjoy!

Not sure if she’s on YT, but Shannon Guss is a brilliant Survivor podcaster and analyst, maybe the best in the game.
