Ok, the blonde was annoying to me...
She couldn't like stand anyone else, but was like annoying herself... (Said TOTALLY in jest because I unfortunately grew up in the decade that uses like to much and my daughter does the same - UGH!!!!!)
Anyway, I did greatly respect the one who didn't finish the ceremony. It didn't feel right to her so she stood up to that.

I agree! the blonde - when she said she was tired and wanted to sit back with a lemonade.....WHAT? Has she never seen Survivor before? Or how about the black lady in the little kitten heels?
And she says "I'm really not an outdoor kind of girl"......hmmm, was she hoping this was the first INDOORS Survivor?Crazy first episode!

Absolutely...have these folks NEVER watched the show? Knowing that there "might" be a possibility that you will not get to keep your stuff.....why wouldn't you make sure to wear clothes that would actually help you. I mean one girl even said she wasn't wearing a bra! Shoot...you should be wearing a sports bra!

It wouldnt be so bad if they didnt put it on at 8 pm. My son was watching it with me and I just made off like the girls were all wearing bikinis.
EVERY year these people are TOLD they go in the clothes they are in. How does one wear a dress and mules for this occasion? And the other one saying she wants a lemonade and to kick back? They're SOOO lucky they got rice off the get-go. My other question is (and I may have missed a part so fill me in) when the had the immunity challenge and the winning team gets fire why do they reward the other team with flint at the end of their tribal counsel? Have we wussed out on EVERY aspect of Survivor?
I'll sit back and watch James quietly chopping with his machette (sp?).....

Okay - those were my questions too! Ummm, did they think they were going to some sort of resort or something? The 2 women you just mentioned really irritated me, because they just made no sense! A dress and heels? And then she says that "this is harder than I thought"! And the blonde with the boulder on her shoulder? "I'm tired.....I just want a lemonade, and to kick back for a while"......and this was at the welcoming ceremony! They hadn't even hit the jungle yet! I'm really hoping her tribe loses immunity and gets rid of her FAST!

And it seems they all have their "tv personalities" already. They've watched this show a million times and everyone at tribal counsel had the eye rolling down and the "I'm the leader." NO, Im the leader" attitude.
Although I hated to see Chicken go because he was a hard worker, he should've just kept his mouth shut and sat back and rode the coattails of all the big-mouthed youngens.
I ALWAYS love to see the older men win. Remember the pilot guy and the NY Fireman!? Wow!!! I'm only 35 and I would've taken them over those young mouthy guys ANY day!

I was sad to see Chicken go so soon! My vote would have been for the bra lady who came into the game in heels......from what I could see, she just stood around and did nothing the whole time......but the whole kitten heels thing may have made be biased from the beginning.....I'm just so dumbfounded that she thought that would be appropriate Survivor wear......It had to be all for the cameras! It's more important to look good than to be appropriate, after all!
LOL about their TV personalities......that is so true!

Taped it last night and watched it this morning. Wow! First, I'm not sure they are told beforehand that they need to travel in what they'll wear at camp. (If so, I doubt they'd be lugging the luggage with them.) That said, if you've watched previous seasons, you know that there is the possibility that you will be abandoning your luggage. The first time that happened, I understood people being unprepared. They've done this many times, though, so there's no excuse. From the time you get the word that you've been selected for Survivor, you should dress like you're preparing for challenges.I respect and admire the woman who left the welcome ceremony. I don't care how adamantly Jeff Probst says, "It isn't a religious ceremony." You're in a temple, bowing to Buddha. I would imagine it has religious significance for the monks who kept correcting the posture of the, like, really annoying blond.I get a little worried whenever someone goes on one of these reality shows being really vocal about being a Christian, though. I've often been disappointed by their behavior in the past. No one is perfect in their walk, but some of them have been really bad examples. So far, though, I like her, though. I also like James. Chicken's big mistake was being childish when they began asking for his opinion. I understand his frustration with his tribe. They kept ignoring his suggestions at first. However, when he kept refusing to answer direct questions about what he would suggest, he painted a big target on himself. There are several others from his tribe I would have gotten rid of first, but that tribe doesn't seem to have a lot of sense.It should be an interesting season.
