[QUOTE=JL81790;402705]I'm reconsidering my stance that Chet should've kept going. I hate quitters but according to Jemmye's interview the nearest doctor was 2 hours away and when he got back to the states he had to not only get his stitches that he got in Uruguay redone, but he also had to see a plastic surgeon. I also highly doubt, with the stitch job he got in Uruguay, they would have let him keep competing. Chet doesn't have a history of being a quitter...**** the kid swam a half mile with a concussion on Cutthroat. Sometimes you just have to give someone a pass. It wasn't a Big Easy or Shauvon situation, so I excuse Chet on this one.[/QUOTE] Seeing a plastic surgeon doesn't really mean anything. Anytime you cut your face and it's going to leave a scar they're going to recommend you see a plastic surgeon to diminish the chances of scarring. Let's face it Chet is one of two guys there (the other being Preston) who would have quit after getting a gash on their chin. That's just a fact.
[QUOTE=JayTee;402707]I didn't like his attitude when he was giving that interview after the elimination, it was if he didn't really care about the challenge and wanted a pretty face instead. I still stand by my statement that it made him look weak, but idk I never really seen a chin injury so it doesn't seem like that big of a deal unless the next few missions involved head to head contact. Didnt Derrick start bleeding a lot and still kept going after Riot Act on Cutthroat?[/QUOTE] I mean I agree it's the easy way out...and I'm not sure that I would've done it. But at the same time I just don't fault him as much as I originally did. Twelve stitches is a fair amount...I believe Dustin only had six on Exes. And I think Derrick just had a scrape on his forearm and Dunbar had a cut on his temple...but neither of those required stitches. Chet's was definitely worse. Again, I think I would've kept going...I just don't blame him as much. And I also am okay with TJ not chewing him out.

I think TJ was trying to encourage him to keep going, but didn't talk as if he was quitting like he did to Beth/Shavon/Trishelle.
[QUOTE=Youssarian;402640][B]Jonna is my favorite person in the whole Challenge franchise[/B], but c'mon... Let's be real. She didn't know how to solve it. I was watching her during the challenge and she obviously looked confused and unsure of how to solve it.[/QUOTE] Why in God's name is Jonna your favorite challenger ever?
[QUOTE=El Scorcho;402735]Why in God's name is Jonna your favorite challenger ever?[/QUOTE] Jonna is my favorite after Veronica/Evelyn. They are filming something NYC this weekend
[QUOTE=PinkRose;402738]Jonna is my favorite after Veronica/Evelyn. They are filming something NYC this weekend[/QUOTE] Do you have an idea of what they are filming in NYC this weekend?
[QUOTE=Livewitpeace;402739]Do you have an idea of what they are filming in NYC this weekend?[/QUOTE] I have an idea but its kind of an spoiler: [Spoiler]The first 5 eliminated people from each *** of Free agents are filming something I don't know for sure what yet[/spoiler]
[QUOTE=El Scorcho;402735]Why in God's name is Jonna your favorite challenger ever?[/QUOTE] Because I used to be a huge fan of Endurance and she was the one who got me into the RW/Challenge franchise... And I just admire her spirit and her personality. I also think she's at times hilarious and is an overall good person.
[QUOTE]Last week, I kept quiet to myself as I didn't know what to expect. I didn't know what would and would not air and in which sequence it would go... I was happy to see they showed that I was willing to help with the puzzle.. yet pretty disappointed they did not show what followed. Jonna and I not only filmed together on Real World Cancun but she was my actual roommate. I have a special affiliation with Jonna. She and I worked on a charity event together and she was and is the only one who knows how to to calm my nerves in a positive way to accomplish great things. Granted, I was 21 and she 19.. but we have some sort of vibe that we appreciate in one another. She gives me confidence and I give her my all. I know she felt a certain type of pressure during the puzzle. Jonna is amazing at puzzles and she calms MY crazed nerves.. Who better to be working with. I am not familiar with tangram puzzles - but I am familiar with puzzles as a whole. (TEEHEE- pun intended). When we were given the key to open the puzzle I was in a state of "wham bam thank you ma'am. LET'S GO" (which you hear me vocalize). We decided Jonna would be the one to tell us and decide where the puzzle pieces went before going in.[B] Chet isn't going to like this but I don't really care because it's the truth - - - he took over and refused to let anyone give their input. He was frazzled, crazed, and arrogant. It's pretty hard to complete a puzzle when someone ignores what you say and holds on to all the pieces for dear life[/B]. While it was a team effort, there is no I in team. It was ironic to see the red teams' comments on who needed to take "control" because quite frankly, neither Jonna, Isaac, or myself were ever given that opportunity until Chet decided to throw the towel in[B]. He then decided to berate me, when I repeated a suggestion I had already vocalized in the first 15 seconds.[/B] All of the pieces were triangular except 2... the ones I saw as a "diamond" and the piece that was GONE WITH THE WIND but could be placed to the left corner. He kept calling the square a square (so much irony here). Hey, guess what. IT WASN'T A ******* SQUARE. It was to be placed in the middle as a DIAMOND (sorry, RHOMBUS doesn't exactly come to mind when there's a CLOCK and pressure just like FRICK doesn't come as soon as **** when I am trying to get **** or should I say ***** done) just as the adjacent piece was to be on the left. I remember this because I was PUZZLING (yes, pun again) a PUZZLE. It's not my fault if it didn't all fall (the teehees at this point are going to keep coming) together the way it could have because you refused to listen. [B]I did speak up despite being DISCOURAGED and talked to like I was a regular dumb dumb[/B]. Because I knew I was right and trusted my gut feeling. (Please see me gasp for air while swallowing my pride. I also felt the cameras zoom in, which solidified I was right). I have constantly been disregarded by Chet (Got him a wonderful gig on Spring Break in which he took my hotel room & then left early because he couldn't handle it.. Weird.. Karma comes through).[B] I was also pulled into a kitchen argument in which I had to defend my intelligence - "Are you saying my intelligence is INFERIOR and yours is SUPERIOR" I left that conversation when he used his high school education of Calculus 3 to defend himself[/B]. I HATE math, I love puzzles.. and a meaningful debate, which this was not. I make no apologies for the puzzle & his departure, which he deserved with that attitude. I felt bad for his scar, but realistically, I think acting like you're better than everyone gets you nowhere... especially when you're in a kitchen of people looking for a reason to vote you in. So long![/QUOTE] Emilee wrote a blog about how the mission actually went down.

A girl that cheats on 2 different boyfriends on short term reality TV counterparts and then breaks up with shortly after. She ought to win a woman of the year award.
[QUOTE=proceed;402753]Emilee wrote a blog about how the mission actually went down.[/QUOTE] I lost my respect for Chet no wonder they lost and why everyone says how self centered he is
Chet is arrogant, he though he was superior than Emile/Jonna/Isaac that let him take control and didn't speak up by what I kept hearing. Here is what Emile wrote on her Facebook: [URL="https://m.facebook.com/emileemtv/posts/1484959351717739"]https://m.facebook.com/emileemtv/posts/1484959351717739[/URL] [QUOTE=El Scorcho;402754]Oh yeah absolutely.

Sarah/Nany/Paula have done the same with multiple guys and they don't get as much hate.
[QUOTE=El Scorcho;402754]Oh yeah absolutely. A girl that cheats on 2 different boyfriends on short term reality TV counterparts and then breaks up with shortly after. She ought to win a woman of the year award.[/QUOTE] Jesus ******, should he be crucified for being a Jonna fan?
[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;402764]Jesus ******, should he be crucified for being a Jonna fan?[/QUOTE] Right... I shouldn't have to justify my fondness of anyone. I like her because I do. I'm not trying to convince you to like her. I understand that people have different opinions. She's my favorite, and she's not yours. That's it.

Other girls on this show have done exactly what Jonna has done as far as hook-ups and such. I mean look at Nany..She hooked up with Johnny Backpack. That ALONE is worse than ANYTHING Jonna has done on these shows.

That ALONE is worse than ANYTHING Jonna has done on these shows.[/QUOTE] Nany has had hookups, Paula has had a lot of hookups...two women that I'm fans of... And Jonna only has had, what, her season, BOTS, and Rivals II...trying to get with someone. I'm a fan of Jonna, but I see her hookups on the same level as everyone else... "Ooh, look, she's making a huge mistake, she'll regret it, etc. etc...oh, time to move on." Jonna is [B]not[/B] a ****; in fact, she doesn't even come [B]close[/B] to a **** in my opinion. Stop trying to berate the girl for doing something that 99.99% of other non-married women would do, whether in a relationship or not. You'd have to be blind to not know that people cheat on each other daily...get over it and move on!
You cannot say you like Jonna because people will feel offended it on here, every week I see the same dissuasion. Always go withthe following explanation "she cheated on 2 bfs on a TV a show". Like she is the only that have done it, at least she told them and didn't put up a Paula on The Island and Exes that didn't told neither of her BF at the time that she cheated of them with Dunbar/Ty until she got home or the show air. The same goes to Sarah that was in a relationship on The Ruins (Hooked up with Kenny off camera) and On seasons (Hooked up with Alton) told them after the show. The same goes to Nany that even though I like her she cheated on her bf with Adam R on Vegas 2 and also flirted with other guys. As far as I know going to Free agents she was seeing someone judging by the trailer and promos it looks like she didn't care at all. Jenn is another girl that have hooked up while being in a relationship back home and didn't even mentioned it. So I don't see why the hate to Jonna? She have daddy issues and have cheated on 2 bfs like a lot of other girls on this shows. At least she had a relationship with both of the guys she cheated on her bf with after the show. She was with Pat in a long distance relationship for a while and lived with Zach after seasons for 5-6 months. Until he found a better match with Ashlee.
I don't understand why people are obsessed with Jonna. Sometimes she makes cute facial expressions but other than that she's wallpaper to me.
So is every episode this season 90 minutes? I do not like.
[QUOTE=gbp02;402788]So is every episode this season 90 minutes? I do not like.[/QUOTE] As far as I know this week episode is just 60 minutes with a 30 minutes after show right after (I think it's a TV one atleast that's what they told me)
[QUOTE=gbp02;402788]So is every episode this season 90 minutes? I do not like.[/QUOTE] Why would you not like that?

Either way Jonna is an idiot. I wouldn't mind if they stopped casting her.
[QUOTE=El Scorcho;402803]Why would you not like that?[/QUOTE] I was going to ask this, too. More screen time for storylines on the show and such.
[QUOTE=PinkRose;402790]As far as I know this week episode is just 60 minutes with a 30 minutes after show right after (I think it's a TV one atleast that's what they told me)[/QUOTE] Looks like it. On my listings, "Love in the Fast Lane" is an hour and a half from 10:00 to 11:30, then shown again at 11;30 to 12:30.
[QUOTE=Fresh Meat;402806]I was going to ask this, too. More screen time for storylines on the show and such.[/QUOTE] I literally cringed so hard at the basketball scene in the premiere. It was almost painful to watch that scene. If we keep getting **** like that I hope it stays 60 minutes. There's no need for 90 minutes.

More scenes like that are happily welcome here!

There's nothing you can do when your chin is split open within thirty seconds of an elimination. Can I ask you this, would you take twelve stitches to the chin to be in Chet's position?
[QUOTE=Morris1721;402810]I loved that scene, love seeing the cast having fun and letting loose. More scenes like that are happily welcome here![/QUOTE] Glad somebody enjoyed it. Watching people in their mid twenties act like total idiots, dressing up as cheerleaders, oh god it was painful lol

If you guys check the TV schedul you will see the re-run of the episode IS at 12:30- 1:30 just an hour. [QUOTE=El Scorcho;402805]Well how is a viewer of the show supposed to know that if they don't show it. Either way Jonna is an idiot.

Er, yea that's what I meant, but didn't really say. The 2nd run through usually is just the show sans after show. Hour show, 1/2 hour aftershow.
