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."

"The ULTIMATE Gufu" |
We thought Jeff Varner jumping off the pole for want of peanut butter was bad.We thought the Rotu 4's (coco)nut-busting strategy was not wise. And Hardy keeping Will and waxing Bunky in BB2 was a short-circuit for all time... No. None of these can compare. Nothing in reality TV to this date can compare. Congradulations, Marcellas! You have accomplished something I did not think possible: You have committed THE ULTIMATE Gufu! To have the power to take yourself off the block and not do so, then minutes later you are GONE. Wow. I just don't know what else to say... except that you deserve everything you got and are about to get. What is the opposite of mercy? Justice. -- Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

2. "Agree" |
Yep, I agree, Dawg -- this was the biggest blunder ever in a reality TV game (so far).

4. "But would he have won?" |
He was probably gambling on the fact Amy was put up so many times she'd be the one axed.Plus since he took the high road, he could parlay it into more money on the outside.WRONG,WRONG,WRONG, unless of course he plans on changing professions to standup comedy since people will be laughing at him for a L O N G T I M E to come.

9. "RE: I agree too" |
Bucky Katt,If you go into the Survivor areas, particularly the Bashers area, you'll see that dabo has a "GUFU" award for screw-ups. That's where the phrase comes from. And a note to everyone: Obviously we could deeply analyze just where things went wrong and what Marcellas should have done at what time... but let's just KISS (keep it simple, stupid) this one: Marcellas had the opportunity to make himself safe by removing himself as a nominee. Whether he thought he could win a vote over Amy isn't the issue, whether he felt totally safe isn't the issue. He could have BEEN totally safe, and he didn't take that step. I'm biting my tongue not to ask "How much did they pay him to do that?" (NO, I don't really think there is a conspiracy here, just some DUMB actions). And he can justify it, rationalize it, take the high road for the future, or play it up any way he wants to, but he DID want to win, he was STUNNED to have lost, and he is going to lose a lot of sleep over the coming weeks and months realizing he (literally) put a half-million dollars back into a wooden box along with a small blue-ribbon necklace. What is the opposite of mercy? Justice. -- Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

18. "RE: Nope" |
I knew all about the GuFu thresd, but reading it again after such a long time was great fun. What a gift AyaK ! ( you have your longer old name then, looks odd now) I had no idea so much SB history was there. ( Oh my didn't we look young?)Make It Stop's first post was indeed here, on the famous Gufu thresd. ( And may I say MIS, good timing! You may have had a rocky intro to this place, but your first post was on a thresd that is SB legend!! Glad to see you still here, and happy belated anniversary) Cornertimes were new, everyone wondered what would happen when the thresd hit 100! *hehehehe* I could go on and on about all the Great SB history, but this isn't the forum for it. Thanks AK, can't help but wonder if you are leaving us these little gifts for a reason. *smile* Buggy - feeling a little nostalgic

I agree, Marcellus definitely earns a space in Gufu history for that dangdumb move! Gee whiz, why leave yourself on the chopping block if you can get out of it? Dumb dumb dumb.>I couldn't figure out. >My best guess was God >Ugly F*** Up. The short history of Gufu: The word originated as a typo of sorts (actually, I misremembered the Japanese word for blowfish, which is "fugu" as everyone knows). It then became an all-purpose nonsense word with no particular meaning. Later on I instituted the Gufu Award for Survivor, which goes to the dangdumbest game play of each season. And, for the record, if anyone wants to establish a Gufu Award for BB or any other game, I have no problem with that. ARRRRRRR!!!!
