Yes, I watch Survivor. I’ve even toyed with the idea of auditioning to be a contestant. I think my charm an Machiavellian guile would see me through to victory… but why on earth do you have a banner featuring that abysmal poseur, Boston Rob at the top my page? Sure, rub it in that the true outdoorsy, likeable contenders Gina and Hunter are no more, outlasted by a pathological liar with an over-inflated view of his intelligence. Sarah, the bikini wonder, has also been claimed by the unfeeling hand of fate... Get Rob off my computer!

I watch it, but reluctantly. I try not to, as I feel it is fake, even though it claims to be a reality show. And honestly, I have thought about trying to become the second Canadian on the show, just for the experiance (yeah, I know I just contradicted myself  ). Although, I'm confused at what your saying here. Care to elaborate?

Rob kind of looks like he has been bitten by a crab or something.

| | I don't mean this as a flame, but ... anyone who watches Survivor is, IMHO, contributing to the downfall of civilization itself. I tell you in all honesty: we are about one half-step away from the coliseum all over again.

I also like the factual cites you use to back up your doomsday hypothesis.

Having used the term "in my humble opinion," I would think makes it clear that I have neither the need nor the inclination to back my statement with statistics. I gave an opinion - you are free to disagree, or to refute it with facts if you so desire.
However, I truly believe you to be an intelligent and creative person, so I will ask you: what worth do you see in such shows? What does such a show do for you?

"I tell you in all honesty: we are about one half-step away from the coliseum all over again." This statement was not prefaced as an opinion. emphasis added
What do I like about such shows? I'm a competive person, and it is a unique contest. I will eventually bore of it, but for now it is a novel competition.

Mr.Sleep held the most post
Then I surpassed the master
Now he takes it back
What does the future hold?

The future looks bright for Aegis
Anyway, Moench, I actually think we should be rbing back the coliseums. At least then we could admit to being the bloodthristy society we really are, instead of hiding it behind a facade of Teletubbies and Muppets.
