My cats and I have an understanding about the vacuum. I start at the front of the house and they flee to the back bedroom. When I get to the back bedroom, I shut it off for a second while they make a break for the front of the house.

I'm old, because I can remember when pizza mixes were touted as better and fresher than delivery. We kids laughed ourselves sick at the innuendo when the disappointed couple opened their delivery pizza box: "It's stuck, Helen!" (as Helen responds sourly) "It's cold again, too." Yep, kids, that passed for innuendo back in the day. You damned kids, get off my yard!

Milk jug rings never get old. If you've got a decent uncarpeted area (say, a hallway), little balls of aluminum foil make great hockey pucks.

I would think he would have to tell them the truth. They'd probably cut it from the broadcast, though, and we'd all be commenting how stupid it was of Tony to bluff when they all knew the rule about when it could last be played.

Someone on TWoP was complaining about the Duluth Trading Co. commercials, esp. the underwear commercials. So I'd like to nominate them as some of my favorites. Especially the Buck Naked Underwear and the Ballroom Jeans. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQ80kLoB8QU

I need to just cut the TWoP forums. I've been weaning myself down and pretty much all I read there now are the commercials. I just read a post over there that was exactly the substance of my post about the "sexy" marionette above, right down to acknowledging that they're thinking about it too much. My first reaction was "I just said that!" and then realized it was there and mine was here. Mine was first (neener, neener!). I would like to clarify that I am not the poster Stella MD on TWoP.

Probst yammering at the challenges really irritates me. Especially when someone figures out a quicker or better way to do the challenge and Jeff immediately yells this out so everyone else can look and copy it. Thus negating the other player's intelligence and creativity. Can't have that, no siree Bob. The idiots must be allowed to advance.

The "sexy" marionette is disturbing, but I am always distracted wondering how she got her bathrobe off over all those wires... That's more analysis than it merits, but it still bugs me.

Not a commercial (so kind of a tangent), but I was watching a National Geographic show the other day, and immediately recognized the narrator as Avery Brooks, aka Capt. Benjamin Sisko on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

So was Rogaine. Years ago, I took care of a toddler on it for treatment of high blood pressure and he was nothing but hair from his eyebrows up to his (original) hairline. Very cute, in a mini-caveman way. When he was changed to a different medication, it all gradually fell out. His Mom was happy, but I was a little sad.

Sure looks like it. :)

I always thought the goat was someone so personally unlikeable that they can't win, and so are dragged to the FTC as someone who won't drain votes from the person dragging them to the end. I don't see the goat as taking the blame for the actions of others, but rather, are so poor with their social skills that it doesn't matter how well they play the rest of the game. YMMV, obviously, but that's my 2 cents.

And there's always the Animal Planet Kitten Cam: http://www.animalplanet.com/tv-shows/too-cute/games-more/kitten-cam.htm

Woo is Tony's dog! Perfect, Spencer!

Tony has to win this. I can't stand the guy, but he played head and shoulders above Woo.

Wow, Erik is no longer the dumbest player.

Yeah, your broadcast is definitely ahead of mine. Spencer just said braindead weasel. I'm out of here because of that.

What? She just got the key on my broadcast. Are you ahead of that?

Hey, Spencer coming off the pole is a good thing, not a loss! Even if Tony is off first, he sucks at puzzles. Go, Spencer! Tony can't swim? Or jump off a pole? Pfffft!

Why would Probst show all the castaways sitting in the green room live? Fuck Woo. Is he trying to tell us he wins this next IC with all of his pointing to himself? Or is he just a jackass looking for attention? I hope you're wrong.

Since Tasha is out now, this would go a long way toward redeeming this season for me. I dislike Tony more than I dislike Spencer.

When I was little, we lived out in the country with dogs and cats running wild. I remember a dog come nosing around when our cat had a new litter. I heard a yelp and turned to see Midnight jump up on the dog, scratching him. She "rode" that dog for a few yards until it was obvious he was leaving the yard. She then hopped down and sauntered back to her kittens.

I didn't find anything since 2010, but did find this, which lists that the PTB can essentially pay them anything or nothing. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_do_Survivor_contestants_get_paid?#slide=1

Guess we know who he's voting for (if Tony makes it to FTC)!
