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.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."
I've been mulling this over for weeks (as have all of you, I know )... last week, immediately following the show, I was convinced, for a brief period of time, that the "Big Lie" was actually the return of the ghost tribe, and that MB was the one who told the lie... but, after re-reading Jeff's quotes about it, I see that doesn't fit.
It has to be Osten, is my conclusion. I just can't believe he's actually that much of a fraidy-cat (not the word I was going to use ).
There are two "characters" this season who just seem over-the-top, or in some way just unbelievable, to me: Osten and Jon. I'm willing to accept that Jon is just, as Jeff put it, "the squirreliest contestant ever on Survivor." But Osten is just exasperating in his seeming inability to function there, when he signed up for it and knew what he was getting into.
That said, I'm not certain what really constitutes the "Big Lie" - just that I think Osten is not what he seems.
So there. After weeks and weeks of wrangling with it, I'm in the "Osten's not really a weenie" camp.
