apocalypsosGood riddance to Lorena and Jason, Jen's out of her mind if she thinks Hendekea and Azaria will just let them have first, Ron needs to stop running with a hernia, blah blah blah.
Now, if it's not too much to ask, can people stop bitching about the Yields and U-Turns? Please?!
I have one HUGE pet peeve about this show that only Phil's lovely face can make up for, and it's that using a Yield or a U-Turn means that we're going to get a good two or three minutes' worth of Race time with people whining about how using said Yields or U-Turns makes you, like, default your soul to the second ring of Hell or something. I'm sorry, WHAT? If I have to hear one more team bitch that it's a "bad strategic move" -- uh, NO -- I'm going to learn how to reach my hands through a television screen and CHOKE them.
They're not knifing a team's tires and waving gleefully as they speed past their disabled vehicle. They're not beating the other team unconscious and leaving them in a foreign alleyway after rifling through their pockets for loose change. They're using a viable legal part of the Race to gain an advantage. The next thing you know, they'll be whining that other teams should just let them win a leg just 'cause.
OH, WAIT.

Somebody please tell me they have a spoiler for what this week's challenge on Project Runway is. I'm dying here.

I finally caught up with Dexter this weekend, and mostly what I got out of it (aside from lots of happy squealing) was that I want to set Lila on fire.

I mean, dude, srsly, I get that it's frustrating to be so very close to winning and get shut out, but holy cow SHUT UP JEN.

I can't quite put my finger down on why--the misuse of "karma", maybe, or the way she was bullying her teammate. All I know is that by the time she shut up, I was really hoping it would backfire on them.

Date: 2007-11-26 11:51 pm (UTC)You mean that if we're racing for a million dollars, and you've been consistently kicking ass because you're good, and I managed to come close to winning but fell short, you wouldn't just give me that win for being almost as capable as you?
*sulks*
You are SO symbolically defriended.
