Talk:You're Infected/@comment-9949103-20190920221257

Oh my God, Silver-Spooned Sterling fucking MADE this episode! I'm so happy that he didn't end up being the one booted because he is BY FAR the best character on this season right now!

In Memorium to Sylvan in the game, I am kind of sad to see him go over Marc's oblivious ass, but he kind of brought some of the heat onto himself for so vehemently trying to commandeer this plot to vote out Marc. He had a real golden opportunity to shoulder a lot of blame onto Aneal for simply being a returning player and I do understand that a lot of the basis for getting rid of him was based on Sterling's lie, but there were definitely avenues where he could've avoided this fate. He also was the least interesting person in the "Majority Club" alliance, so if it had to be someone in that group, I'm glad it wasn't someone like Aneal or Elliott who are bigger and more likable personalities at this point.

Speaking of likable personalities, I must reiterate how much I LOVED Sterling this episode! Like seriously, I was high on him in the beginning when he kept getting hilariously shamed for complaining about the rain, but he was a true icon this episode. Making the radio alliance, getting infected by making said radio alliance with the infected castaway, then using his own infection to twist the target onto Sylvan's back instead of his own! Pure genius! Even though he voted with Marc and his groupies this episode, I have HIGH doubts that he shows any kind of loyalty to them long-term, so I'm really excited to see where him and the rest of the guys go from here.

Although, lemme take a moment to eat my words here about Auggie since he definitely proved to be more than an annoying parasite this episode. Initially, I appreciated his willingness to fuck people's games up and not really give a fuck about anything, but his tryhard side is definitely starting to manifest more and I am not here for it. Seriously, if it wasn't enough to give Marc the idol, he then has to go ask for it back for LITERALLY no reason! Zero, zip, nada, there had been NO confirmation that the vote was switching from Marc and Auggie literally only makes himself look like a spineless Geoff Zhang-tier level idiot by trying to go back on his plans like he did. Plus, for all the drama that Auggie tried to cause in this pre-tribal segment, Sterling took it over and did it WAY better so Auggie should probably think up a new gimmick since it's very clear that he's not even that good at his whole "I'm here to fuck shit up" thing.

I really hope this comes back to bite Auggie in his big behind because I really don't want any of the other guys to go home soon. Aneal and Elliott are my lovable underdogs, Sterling is an infected icon, Jack is insanely likable and deserves brownie points for not being booted as the typical "old person" trope, and Marc and Kevin continue to give me life with their obnoxious arrogance, especially Marc, who by this point may as well just rename himself "walking contradiction".

The girls tribe, quite honestly, was way less interesting and really brought down the episode in my honest opinion. Seriously, all of the interesting dynamics from this episode were coming from the guys tribe. Even the formation of the freaking Radio alliance involved someone from the male tribe. The girls, ugh, the girls were just all over the place this episode.

First of all, Lakynn and Farrah both still being in the game is an utter travesty. Even though they both keeping bringing dramatics to the tribe, it really is nothing that I'm interested in. Farrah is one of the biggest borewhores I've seen and she might as well get "generic" tattooed onto her face along with all that plastic surgery. Lakynn as well is just an insufferable character in general. Everytime she opens those big whale lips of hers I can't help but think about fast-forwarding a couple decades in my life so I can be dead.

On top of that, Suzi pissed me off this episode too with her inability to keep her big mouth shut. We get it, Rianne lied to you in a game called Survivor, she's not loyal, she's a snake, blah blah blah. The fact that Suzi feels the need to voice all of this to Rianne's face instead of, you know, being a smart person and at least putting up a good front tells me that Suzi has little to no game awareness whatsoever. I hope that she can get her act together and actually, you know, play the game and not bitch and whine about Rianne, but I'm not holding my breath.

Rianne and Lynsie are still amazing, I love that Lynsie wants to keep Rianne around and LOVE that the two of them are now in this Radio alliance with Sterling. Those three together are like my dream final three so I'm hoping that, unlike literally all of the alliances formed this season, it can last more than one episode.

Also, Rianne infecting Lakynn makes me SO happy! Hoping that if the bitch doesn't get booted before the antidote challenge that that can be the thing that finally knocks her out! Ugh!

Rooting for Rianne, Lynsie, Sterling, Jack, Aneal, and Elliot!<3
