Oh I do too, I just have no idea what the heck this means. Could you enlighten me by Pm perhaps?
[QUOTE=tjhallow;86134]I don't want to say anything mean because I love Aneesa.[/QUOTE]
I like her too but, that comment made me puke in my mouth a little. Just the visual...could have been anyone.
MTV usually posts that a show will be available at such and such a time. They haven't even done that yet.
Remember when the show would be posted right after it ended???
Re: Brad's comments to Rachel - I have a theory. It seemed Rachel and Evan were really close on this challenge, maybe even hooked up? Now this is purely speculation, but she could have been purposefully trying to slow Brad down so that Evan could catch up. I'm sure she was confident that Brit wouldn't catch up to her so she wasn't in any danger.
Just curious though - why are you guys bringing Veronica up in the whole Rachel/Aneesa thing? What does Veronica have to do with it?
Personally I think CT is a jerk, but IMO this fight was long overdue. Besides, Adam did not put himself in a good position - he should have left Diem alone with CT around.
It's too bad Kim and Dunbar didnt work out - I think they would have made a good couple! So glad that Rachel is not with either Anessa or Jenn - they are both too trashy for her.
I think I'm going to take a little break from the Challenges - especially since all of the 3 Stooges are on the next one.

That has been discussed...although unfortunately it was not aired.

Rachel not helping Brad because she wanted Evan to win? That sounds a little far fetched to me. She didn't want Brad as her partner because he was sore from the Duel.
What does Veronica have to do with it? Veronica could have a lot do with it. Everyone seems to tip toe around that issue, I want to hear the dirt.
And Rachel's not trashy for hooking up with three people? Yet Aneesa and Jenn are? I'm not on Team Jenn or Aneesa or even Rachel for that matter but don't call one trashy and not the other. Rachel's hookup list might be a lot longer than Aneesa's. (Darrell, Abram, Veronica, Evan, Aneesa, Jenn)

At the same time too... and out in the open having no problem with people seeing it. I think that's worse then what Aneesa and Jenn have done.
[quote=TheQuietOne;85742]Just thought I'd share this... my daughter's not even two, only says a few sentences coherently, but when Paula came on the TV, she walked up to it, pointed at Paula, and said clear as day, "Shut up now!" Brought a big smile to my face :)[/quote]
My daughter did the same thing!!!!!
[quote=tjhallow;86110]I agree, and I didn't like seeing that side of him. He really just complained about everything. I still like him though.[/quote]
In retrospect and in some sort of defense, I think Landon came into this game thinking in terms of "old style game play" like Alton, Timmy, The Miz, etc. The last challenge Lando did before Duel 2 was GII, where captain versus teammate elimination round came into play. Also, he has only done two prior challenges where teamwork was neccessary and vital to winning. I think Landon thought his hard work and winning challenges would earn him respect and some sort of unspoken worthiness, however, Duel 2 is nothing like that at all. I am not saying Landon said any of what I have written above, however, the viewer can interpret such by watching all of Landon's past challenges.
I do have to agree that the **** They should of shown special showed Landon in a negative light, and while it showed him in a sort of peccimmist view, it didn't sour my tastebuds. And after all, he did participate in some silly stuff, and will forever be known as "Juicebox Hero". He did outline that the challenges have changed for the worse in terms of "having fun" in his blog if anyone wants to read.
Another thing (and feel free to call me a peccimmistic lush): I cannot imagine these Challenges being half as fun going into them with some sort of real relationship out side of television. Don't get me wrong, I think its great to remain faithful and such but alcohol is a huge factor in most of these "Unseen Hook-ups". By not drinking you really have half the amount of fun but you also don't put yourself in a situation to cheat or screw things up. Maybe this was a problem Tonya always ran into?
I think Lando redeemed himself with his positive attitude at the Reunion in terms of his duel loss, Brad, Mark, and Evan. For me, the negative light he had in **** They Should of Shown faded and a big aura of positivity reclaimed my beloved Lando Commando.
That is all. =) Had to write a few paragraphs on Landon today to fit my daily quota. Feel free to bash, my lovely Vevmoans! :P

Well I think Jenn is a fake and a liar. I remember watching some sort of Aftershow or Duel Dish where Jenn said she never hooked up with anyone outside of her Denver season and Rachel.
When on Inferno III, she hooked up with Kenny. Shady little girl she is.

Oh don't get me wrong, I don't like Jenn either, but I was just agreeing with TJ about what she said about Rachel, Jenn and Aneesa. Jenn is very fake cause it was also said she hooked up with Derrick, which I could believe. I don't believe anyone who has said they never hooked up with anyone on these shows. And when they say they hooked up with so and so, I will believe that they have hooked up with so and so PLUS another so and so.

Diem went to Adam. "he should have left Diem alone..." was not part of her agenda. I don't think the ladies were yet completely open with her about what had happened -- other than perhaps Katie -- so
Dunbar = Controlling of women. Kim - Free Spirit. The two are completely incompatible as you will see in a few months.
V1Man, I know you speak with Tori... and I was just wondering what her thoughts on the Duel with Aneesa are now that the show is over and aired. Were they really hating on each other? Or was it just nerves taking over? It was something I was hoping the reunion would actually address.

I am not sure about Aneesa, but I think if you ask Tori, she may be more willing to help.

Good question. She will be sitting for an interview with vevmo soon.

Yay. It is always nice to hear from the cast members.
One of the things on the Reunion:
Evan wasn't THAT bad at first for me. But then he began to pipe and chime in at every chance, kinda like Jenn, and it all went downhill again.

Look up the meaning of the word "speculation" because that is what I stated I was doing. Both of them have proven that they will screw over other contenders for the sake of their alliance - all I was suggesting that if in fact they did have something extra to their alliance then that MIGHT have been the case.
I was talking about their personalities and the way they present themselves. What is trashy about hooking up with multiple people? Nothing wrong with that, she is an adult and she has no ring on her index finger, therefore she is entitled.

I haven't seen that from Dunbar - but maybe you're right and they havent shown it. I think its a southern thing - I'm from Mississippi as well and here men are raised to be "dominant" and women should be "submissive" this is the Bible Belt afterall lol - yeah I know its a load of BS - I think thats why I'm not str8 lol.
Oh, I don't know what's wrong with that, maybe perhaps that there are some things people should keep to themselves. Everyone bashes on how CT fights or has hit people, and even look at what Shauvon did and say they don't like her, but then look at Rachel, having a three some, laughing that everyone saw, and not just people on the challenge but thousands of viewers, and you say that isn't a little wrong? And I'm 21 by the way. You can call me whatever you want, but I myself wouldn't be so proud of doing something like that. Well, showing it on tv at least, nothing wrong with three somes.

I am referring to the way they look, they way they talk - ie the way they present themselves. I believe I said that in my last response, or did you not read the whole statement?

Not bashing you post, especially because I love Landon as much as you do. I did see the negativity coming from him on The **** They Should Have Shown, as well as in his exit interview (showed in a daily clip) and in an interview (the article he linked to on his blog). And it was a little annoying to keep hearing him complain.
I do have to agree with him in terms of the missions not being so great. But I thought maybe he was expecting way too much from these challenges from that daily clip when he discussed it. I was thinking maybe every since he got into mountain biking seriously, these challenges will not provide him with enough of a physical challenge and excitement that he'd seem to like. However, comparing the missions from Inferno 2 overall and some of the Gauntlet 2 missions (the tougher ones), I do think The Duel's missions were not as challenging overall. Gauntlet 2 had that one mission that he and Alton were the only pair to make it across, and even those two Supermen struggled with it. Inferno 2 had stuff like the drill sergeant mission (surf torture?), pulling yourself as far as you could go on those horizontal cables, X Marks the Spot (which only Rachel and Abram did well in), etc. And Duel 2 kept being referred to as the toughest challenge ever on the reunion (I'd guess it was scripted), so I was glad when Mark said it wasn't really that tough and got Landon to back him up on it. The final did sound grueling, though.
I can understand how it might be boring without being able to get out as much as well. It's sad they have restricted what they can do when not competing so much. I'm guessing there is a reason, but I feel bad these people can't enjoy the country they go to as much anymore, especially a place that seems as scenic as NZ. I wish they would at least let them have a movie/entertainment day once a week, and let them go workout with whoever they want to on any day.
I know Landon said he was trying to be careful with drinking as not to hook up with Brit, but he did get drunk at least one night, as seen in the dailies. It's hard to imagine someone who drinks (or drunk) as much as Landon does (or did the last time we saw him) would completely cut it off on a challenge.
That was another thing he griped about though - the partying and hooking up people. Yes, he does like to compete, but he has also be one of those party people and is known for being one of the drunk people from these shows. He also has hooked up on a challenge before. I think it's great if he has matured past that, but he knows what people do on these shows. And some people really did want to compete well and win. The ones who really did were the last several guys left, it seemed to me.
So I think some of the things he complained about were things that changed since he'd last done challenges and I see his points, and some things were comparable to past challenges he did and it just didn't sit right with him this time. I want him to continue challenges, but I think if he wants to do another, he shouldn't get his hopes up so much for the challenge to be as they were in the past, or different.
He's still a favorite of mine, though.
