PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines.

"OH NO! THERE'S A SCHMO IN THE ELEVATOR!"
Let's pretend that the posters in this forum
are like a microcosm of Matt's hometown community
you step into an elevator and
two floors up you notice Matt is in the elevator with you
then the elevator gets jammed and stops for two hours....

What would you really say to this guy and/or how would you treat him?

No nibbles huh? So you would have nothing to say to this guy in person, but as long as it's in a forum you have plenty to say?

I'd be curious about his side of things. There's a lot that goes on that we don't see. Not just logistical produciton issues, but also everything left on the editing room floor, and angles that are played by the producers that may really be entirely fabricated through editing.

I'd basically want to hear his point of view, if he wanted to tell it for the tenth time that day. I'd definitely treat him with respect. He's a person and a good guy; I wouldn't prod him like an experiment animal.

I'd basically want to hear his point of view, if he wanted to tell it for the tenth time that day.

That's probably why I'd just give him a hi and a smile. If the reports are true that he's ticked off about how the whole thing, I'd probably give him a break since he's closed in and can't escape.

I'd definitely treat him with respect. He's a person and a good guy; I wouldn't prod him like an experiment animal.

The prodding's already been done.

My least favorite reality show contestants are the boring ones. If you're going to be dull, just stay at home, don't expect me to watch you. I don't put Matt in the boring category, so it would be easy to have a fun conversation with him if I got the impression he wanted to talk about it.

(And for those of you who are screaming, "But it's all scripted! He knows!" I'm in the WHO CARES camp. I really don't care if he knows or not, and frankly, consider him entertaining either way. So I don't waste time pondering the "Does he know" question, nor does it really affect how I would treat him if I ran into him.)

For erikman: And they claimed to have worked so hard in finding a real schmo during the interviews, then all of a sudden he finds Matt in a baskeball game? Does SS army have a sixth sense about schmos?

I heart Bebo

I agree 100% with her statements. I could care less if he knows, it's very entertaining and I dont find myself yelling at the screen so it's also relaxing.

I'd say hey how's it going dude and talk about basketball or football or something like that.

I'd ask if I could "adopt him". I'm old enough to be his mom so I don't think he'd go out with me but I would be willing to take him in here in Hawaii if he wanted a vacation. I don't care if he knows or not either, I just repsect a man of his age with some manners and morals.

Well my son is the same age as Matt and he says I'm sick and twisted for my constant desire to rob the cradle. Especially someone his age. At least I don't go after males younger than my kids--that's something isn't it?

You are too funny- I like that in a person.

OHHHH...Must have had a blonde moment there (which I am so no offense to blondes is intended -it's just an expression-lighten up or I'll be forced to quote Marilyn Monroe) or it could have been the wee hours in which I read that. Or both. Or something entirely different, but I digress (which I'm prone to do).
Will let you know when I come up with further thoughts or revelations.

He could be Jewish?! Fireworks!

I once took a car for a test drive with a Jewish salesperson, this guy in a semi almost hit me, then I said, "Jesus Christ" - it's like a reflex for me. The salesperson got very sullen and pouty for a while. It didn't hit me as to why until later, and then I wondered how with that I offended him.

Maybe he thought you were an anti-SEMIte. Ha, get it, semi almost hit you...

Even if Matt has Jewish blood in him, I don't get the sense he's rooted in the faith.

being trapped in an elevator with ANYONE would cause me to lose my mind. I'd probably treat him nicely, or just not be able to talk to him unless he started the conversation because I'd be too busy trying to figure out how to get out of this stuck elevator..

So Oceans,
I get the feeling from your post that when someone starts off a hypothetical with "So you're stuck on a desert island with no human contact at all and.." you'd reply with "Wait a minute, that's not even possible."
Am I a little warm, or way off?

You're way off.
The thing with being stuck in an elevator with someone I've never met before kind of scares me. If it was in a large room, I would be fine, but since an elevator is rather.. Small, I'd be rather creeped out, unless it was like a frieght elevator, then I think I could manage to be okay. But a regualr elevator would have me feeling rather claustraphobic.
