Amazing Race: Unfinished Business starts tonight!

The weird Snapple tie-in came out of nowhere though. I'm glad they got a new sponsor, but to invent a tea related task just to pimp some new flavours is a bit beyond the pale. :p

They should go to Germany, drive some mercedes and at the end get to keep one.

:)
 
I knew some teams would have trouble with the tea challenge when I saw some of them chugging their tea without paying much attention. Ron was the one who asked about the flavor, and then he was the first one to identify the papaya/mango tea during the challenge.

And those that were the fastest in completing the challenge usually realized that it was faster identify the scent before tasting the tea. That way, you didn't have to drink so many cups.

Yeah, I think that task was tough only if you were chugging them at random. If you actually smelled them and paid attention, there was the potential to get through it a lot faster.

Also glad to see Margie and Luke go, especially instead of the Globetrotters, though I have to admit they were much less annoying overall this time around.
 
OH MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seeing Feeb blubbering his eyes out just had us ROLLING in laughter!!!!!

The guy is what, 25? He was acting like a little bitch.

Compare him to Mallory who approaches every new place, challenge and obstacle with a smile, laughter and an extremely positive attitude! She is a constant joy!

BRILLIANT ending and don't let the door hit your whining arse on the way out. I guess he DID prove one thing - deaf people can also lose at "The Amazing Race", just like hearing people.


*Looking forward to a new episode without the constant "MAAHHH!!!!!!"*
 
OH MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, dude? After posting in this very thread that you "hate handicapped people" (your own words), now you're name-calling handicapped people, calling one "Feeb?"

It's time for you to shut the fuck up, right fucking now.
 
I guess I'll be the lone voice here but I really felt bad for Luke. He was there so long and he never gave up, no matter what. I'm glad he finally got the task done and while I do like that they got eliminated, I think going down fighting was great to see.
 
You hear that people who are lacking one sense more up for it by having their other senses heightened, so going into I expected Luke to do well at that challenge.

But I'm not glad he's gone.
 
I wasn't a big Margie and Luke fan so it didn't bother me to see them go. I actually really like pretty much all of the remaining teams, with the exception of Ron and Christina. They have become really grating to watch.

I didn't have much of an opinion about Gary and Mallory last season, but I am really loving them this time. At first Mallory's overflowing positivity seems like it would be irritating, especially for a negative cynic like myself, but I actually really like her. I feel happier when I watch her and see how happy she is. You can just tell she and her dad are good people!
 
I missed last season, so I was unfamiliar with Gary and Mallory going into this season. I'm enjoying them, so far; I really like Mallory's enthusiasm (though it was a little off-putting at first), and Gary is the model of understated kindness and patience.

I like all the teams left, too, though Ron still annoys me. I don't have a problem with Christina. I wonder what it'd have been like if Christina and Azaria had come back together instead, like Eric and Danielle (who had also previously been on TAR with different partners).

The reason nobody got upset with the previous post is you took MY WORDS completely out of context and you know it. There was a WHOLE OTHER sentence or two added onto that you have omitted for the sake of your own biases. I would suggest a career with Fox News or one of those constantly being sued UK tabloids?

As I mentioned before, your own admission that you have recently become handicapped is clouding your view of MY posts and causing you to come back at me with undeserved and out of proportion anger.

It may offend you but in this house Luke has been referred to as "Feeb"(actualy we used another word before "Feeb" that coincidentally ALSO started with "F")since the previous season he was in.

Regardless whether he is deaf, gay(as I am), Jewish, speaks Swahilli or has eighteen nipples, it ABSOLUTELY ROCKED to see a petulant, indulged little whining cry-baby bawling his way to the finish line where he got what he deserved.

Blah blah blah, useless nonsense

Funny. I believe I told you it was time to shut the fuck up. The hole you've dug yourself in isn't getting any smaller. Just go away. Now. And when you do decide to resurface, an apology from you to all in the handicapped community is most definitely in order.
 
Your editing of my cogent post with "blah blah blah, useless nonsense" must not only be a violation of some kind of rule here, it is a virtual admission of the fact that you cannot counter me with any kind of sense besides "shut the fuck up" and "just go away"(see, I quoted you correctly and in context - that's how it's done).

As for me - I am just glad useless Luke is gone, hopefully NEVER to return.

I just read your "location" - "Disrespectful of his betters". Never a truer word spoken!
 
Kent and Vixen were their usual charming selves tonight. It was particularly impressive how Kent managed to smack his head against the unmoving car door and then blame it on the taxi driver.
 
The way they kicked out that local from the taxi was really obnoxious. :lol:

But, Ron pretty much blew it and they deserved to lose that leg.
 
Ron...when you hit Pakistan you've gone too far.

I can't believe she jumped in the Ganges. I hope they gave her antibiotics or something.
 
As much as I dislike Ron, I was hoping they'd beat out Kent and Vyxin this week just because both of them were being such assholes.

Yep. I'm rooting for those two nitwits to be gone next.

I don't know what Ron was thinking and why he didn't try to double back to where there were actual people in the marketplace sooner.

Amazing comeback by the cowboys.
 
There were a number of teams being assholes this week, such as Justin and Zev, Ron, and The Goths. It just seems to me that if these people are there for a second chance, the level of complaining wouldn't be as high as it is. It's one of the major reasons why this season isn't even up to Amazing Race standards for me, and I'm been contemplating being done with it. I'll probably stick around, but I hope we don't ever see some of these teams again.
