“If anyone has any objec-“ “YO! RIGHT HERE!”

I mentioned gentle pressure during the episode. There was an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000 where the characters riffed on a railroad safety film, Days Of Our Years. One of the things brought up was about applying gentle pressure to the shoulder in order to get the attention of someone who is welding. They didn't cover arc-eye. Here's the video; I cued it up to the relevant part, but the whole thing is darkly funny.

Is it me, or did Bastion sound like Jeff Goldblum to you guys as well?

Good leg. Even with Ricky & Cesar making the top two yet again, I don't think there's an overwhelming favorite to win. Well, except for Yvonne & Melissa, who seem under-served by the editing. Welding! Nice to see Racers take shop class. Also funny to see those not participating in the Roadblock wearing the protective gear and eye shields, even though they weren't near the action. Detour would have been a nightmare for me. I don't think I'm capable of maintaining a constant rhythm, and I don't speak Spanish, let alone sing it. Bless the Girlfriends' hearts for trying their best at singing. I guess they don't go to karaoke often. I felt the other singers were getting annoyed that they had to keep performing while Yvonne & Melissa kept screwing up. Amber & Vinny . . . I really hope they have split up by now. I don't think a million bucks would be enough to keep them together. He's just so damn pushy, and I just want to pull that long hair from his head in a violent manner. Sunny & Bizzy . . . they ran out of other teams to outlast. I figured Yvonne & Melissa's singing would have let the Firefighters dodge elimination yet again, but it wasn't mean to be. Oh, and Angie & Danny wound up in second place. Here's hoping they don't feel the urge to help other teams. I'm willing to bet that they thought the teams would be leaving in a 2-3-2 pattern instead of 2-2-3, where they were stuck with the Girlfriends & Firefighters.

Damn, the bandwagon's getting lighter. I guess that for all the puzzles and devices Hunter made, he didn't study for Paranoia 301. He should have played the idol. I'm disappointed in him. Anyone else thinking Tiffany is going out with her idol in pocket? It seems to be that sort of season. At this point, why the fuck not?!? After Gabler and Yam Yam, why shouldn't a would-be goat and body shield make it to Day 26 (or whenever) and win despite no one able able to stand her for episodes at a time? Who else should win? Charlie? Ben? Boring. Maybe Liz would be a longer shot, but I don't think she'd make it to the end. Also, I bet she's allergic to checks with seven figures. I don't like Probst the fanboy with the front seat to the dramatics. The only way that would have worked with me is if the popcorn bowl was a hidden idol. Once again . . . why not? Someone looks down, sees "HII" inscribed on the bottom, and silently pockets it.

Attached cameras on their car?

Heh. Barbados is a fitting locale since Vinny is a rude boy.

That was actually a Reward Challenge on Survivor.

As far as female firefighters go, at least we have Nicole over on The Challenge: All Stars.

Looks like Big Head needed a break from the big head. Ah, Sunny & Bizzy ran out of second chances. At least they’re taking it well.

They don’t make me want to tear my hair out. I want to tear out Vinny’s hair, though.

I wish we got translation of the lyrics. Finally! The stage performers can go home to their families!

Has anyone said the title quote yet? I think that I missed it.

Not with the singing. Otherwise, the Girlfriends would’ve been cut loose by now.

It’s the weekly miracle the Firefighters need to survive the leg.
