Admittedly I didn't even like it much when it came out, but I was also in college and not giving a lot of the episodes my full attention, but I went back and re-watched more closely over my long winter break and it's honestly so objectively good once I get past my bias towards male characters lol. Like, it has very dramatic, almost cartoon-ish villains, and then they get their comeuppance at the hands of the least likely person. The final 5 is all really likable. And honestly the FTC was the most surprised I had been at an FTC result since...maybe Nicaragua? Maybe ever? I legitimately thought the runner up was gonna win going in, so that was a nice surprise because it hides the winner kind of well, unless you are a confessional count nerd. But yeah, really like seasons where the endgame is all likable people which is why MvGX is actually one of my favorites all-time, but I chose KR over it because, objectively, MvGX almost has TOO LITTLE conflict. KR also has a realllllly solid premerge which I think will get a first time viewer hooked. I wanted to go with a modern season, and almost every but 2017 me likes KR so I went with it as what I would recommend to someone.

Surrrre thing:

So obviously Saturdays are always great, but this year has really made me appreciate Wednesdays because they are basically an extra Saturday. I teach, and my school is in a hybrid model rn meaning kids are either in-person M-TH or Tu-F, and then all of them plus myself are virtual on Wednesdays. Well Wednesdays I basically just post assignments the night before and then spend the day how I want. It also makes Tuesdays, generally the worst day of the week, feel like an extra Friday. So having this nice little oasis in the middle of the work week has been AMAZING this year



As far as dumdums, I buy them more than any other candy as an incentive for my class, and have been for 4 years now. I have had sooo many dum-dums, and it's to the point where they don't really do much for me at alllll. AND they have recently removed watermelon and strawberry which were my second and third favorite flavors, so they can kick rocks. This is a photo of me with an empty bag of them I had in my car as a reminder to buy more since my class just went through the last of them yesterday.

For the biggest influence, I literally made a speech at my high school's academic honors night honoring my brother as the biggest influence in my life to that point. Here is proof from my mom's Facebook:



Very sweet....

Finally lol idk, John Lithgow was a weird one I guess but I was trying to think of a celebrity who is kind of grandfatherly and kind-seeming and I had just watched Interstellar this weekend in which he is a literal highly-involved grandfather. Just always liked the guy whenever he randomly pops up as a side character in things

Actually... Herm said Heroes vs Villains Would you really recommend someone new to be spoiled about prev seasons? Like you’d be spoiled about former winners if you start with HvV.

Also Emilia Clarke stands out to me as someone you would want to be RELATED to?

Curtis @ 10/3/2021 15:47 Rodney @ 10/3/2021 15:38 but kinda hard to argue with the thing about his brother Try My argument would be I've almost never heard him say anything about his brother and I've heard him say a lot of things

Honestly I don't even know how many siblings you have either

Rodney @ 10/3/2021 17:55

Jacob why do you always insist on giving trash answers and making us go through this

I'm sorry I answer honestly and don't try and metagame my answers because I am afraid of getting lynched like you do

So did you just skip over my explanation of why Wednesdays are distinctly different for me than other weekdays?

No I saw it I just can't get past KR enough that I don't fully buy that is not a cover

Aight, well let me take you through this thought exercise:

1) I would want to recommend a season of modern Survivor to a first time user. This is more a matter of preference but if they were going to get into it long-term, I would want them to know what they were getting into. This leaves something like 27-40
2) I would not want to recommend a season with any returnees. This leaves 28, 29, 30, 32, 33, 35, 36, 37, and maybe 39.
3) I would not want to recommend any season with the dumb final 4 twist lol. This leaves 28, 29, 30, 32, 33
4) Not Worlds Apart lol. 28, 29, 32, 33
5) Controversial but not Cagayan because it's just so atypical with its winner and I just didn't like it as much as most people. It's solid but it might be the most overrated season imo. 29, 32, 33
6) I have been documented as disliking 29 as well, and I wasn't even really distracted when I was watching 29 as I watched it over the summer

and then I explained why I chose 32 over 33. Kaoh Rong is just a very normal, modern season without any absurd twists or returnees

##vote Mal ##vote Jacob mostly for the Wednesday answers

Do you not believe that I work from home and essentially don't have to do anything that day, or do you not believe that I would say Wednesday even if that were the case?

...but what kind of question would elicit specific Wednesday answers? I'm not sure I follow your logic here. Like unless the question is "Name a day between Tuesday and Thursday", I don't see how there's gonna be a question that is likely to make us both answer Wednesday?

How can you possibly clear anyone who said "saturday" when the hen question is obviously one that is most geared towards a Saturday answer and thus probably is accompanied by a Fox question that is probably most likely to be answered "Saturday" as well?
