yeti and dkgo: sorry that i own you guys so much and point out your logic flaws often enough to elicit your disdain. there are plenty of threads full of non-thinking people where you guys can post without fear of being refuted. especially with Yeti being green, im sure you can count on plenty more blog-threads from his friends.

shrugs: im sorry i missed that. as soon as reynell won i rage-changed the channel. and i have to say that i was hurt by rayas promise to donate money to charity, as i am staunchly anti-charity. but in my relentless objectivity, i have decided that she is hotter than kaitlyn.

That $7000 wager has to be awful right? Kailyn either needs to get it right or needs to have all three fail to win as far as I can tell, so a 10,601 (minimum) wager accomplishes the same thing, except she also wins in the (most likely?) scenario where both she and Raynell gets it right? Certainly has to be way more likely than them all getting it wrong AND Raynell not going all-in?

Jeopardy tilts me, better not make watching it a habit.

ham, whether you're lecturing us on wagering strategy without knowing the rules, getting contestants mixed up, or just plain having bad taste in girls, all your posts have been pretty awful.

of course. like you say, she led, so not betting for the win is baffling. i'm not sure exactly what she was doing, maybe some enormous mathematical choke on the big stage.


raynell claiming to have broken his buzzer was amazing.

Also, I'm pretty sure Kailyn only said she was donating to charity because Raya did. Raynell didn't, and that was another point in favor of him. Plus, how can you not like a dude who said he wanted to be "the former president of the US"?

Kailyn and Raya were just so annoying, with Kailyn's "Can I...?" crap, and Raya's voice and chin were just so annoying. She reminded me of (an even worse version of) Kennedy (the MTV VJ).

That was hilarious. He is 100% the type of guy who plays Mario Kart and leans his body into the turns.

Jennings is currently doing an "IAMA" on Reddit. It's basically an interview conducted by people on a forum.

Lots of people think it's a Jeopardy reference, but actually I was thinking of that time Watson and I were cellmates in prison, and it kept raping me.

I can see myself tuning out of Jeopardy again. The show isn't as interesting with random generic adults. Titmouse is a classic, though.

Titmouse lol. Do people really not know what a Chinchilla looks like? I thought that was the easiest daily double ever and couldn't believe he wasn't responding instantly.

I didn't know what it was.

The answer, while funny, was nothing compared to him looking over at the judges and apologizing. Gold.

He better hear titmouse everyday for the next year from friends.

His embarrassed apology was awesome.

Perhaps I just think it's easily recognizable because I once considered getting one. They are cool little furballs and, unlike most rodents, they live about 10 years.

I think Jeopardy deserved the titmouse response for presenting that stupid category.

The first titmouse joke I remember is from Chris Elliot's "Get A Life". I think the storyline was that he somehow became a spelling bee champion but the only word he couldn't spell was titmouse because he thought there was a silent k in front of it or something.

Also, there's this great titmouse moment from the Simpsons:

Homer: Marge, I swear I didn't touch her. You know how bashful I am -- I can't even say the word "titmouse" without giggling like a schoolgirl.

I actually said aloud (in a joking manner) titmouse before the contestant did. I can't be the only other one that thought that.

I did the same... even though I knew the titmouse is a bird.

Watching this guy was so tilting. Each ring-in attempt was like him trying to start a lawnmower. WTF?

I heard a loud sound right before his said he thinks he broke it, which is just mind-boggling. How can one person be that uncoordinated?

Congrats to him though, smart guy.

The blond girl in the middle was really annoying and needed to be hit in the face with a frying pan. The girl on the right with the glasses and red shirt was cute. Even Alex laughed at the girl in the middle when she would answer to exuberantly. Awkward kids.

Sorry to keep throwing out personal anecdotes, but this happened in a game I played as well. About six or seven clues after a controversial answer, the judges stopped the game and ruled the contestant incorrect. They just retaped Alex saying "I'm sorry, that's incorrect" and on TV it appeared smooth.

During the break, I protested that I did not have a chance to answer the question, which I should have if the answer was incorrect, and thought that a new question should be tossed out to myself and the other opponent. Furthermore, because they just acted as if the time ran out on the question, it appeared as if myself and the other remaining contestant were really stupid for not getting what was a really obvious answer (I don't remember what it was, but it was easy).

The judges said that this is their standard procedure for such situations, but obviously it's still an EV screwing not to get an opportunity to answer a question that an opponent answers incorrectly.
