So this Survivor pool that I’m in? It’s a crazy, complicated set up where you pick your top 4 survivors and big losers and also take quizzes. I’m not sure exactly how it all works and I haven’t taken the spoilers quiz at all. I have no clue what I’m doing. And yet I’m still in the top 10 players after last night’s episode.

Last week I was #6. This week I’m #7.

It’s cracking me up.

One thought on this season so far: these contestants have seen the show before, right? They know that the past few seasons the survivors have been stranded on their islands with only the clothes on their backs, right? The one exception being the All Stars season. So why would the survivors assume that they’re going to get to keep their nicely packed gear once they get to their destination?

I have no plans of ever trying out for Survivor. But if I did and got selected, on that first day I would wear my swimsuit under practical clothes that I would want to wear for a month on a deserted island. No dress. No heels. No frilly lingerie. And I’d put a toothbrush in my pocket.
