286: Betsy Bolan (Samoa): Look, I appreciate someone willing to call Russell out on his shit. But here's the thing - she wasn't able to do anything about it. Instead, she gets outlasted by Russell and other douchenozzles. (coughbenfuckingbrowning) When the one person standing up to Russell gets swiftly cut down...yeah it akes for a tad depressing story. I appreciate what she was trying to do, but there's only so far I can let a 2nd boot gonot named Garrett or B.B.

285. Nate Gonzalez (Cook Islands) - I can already hear the groans and moans, and if this gets idol'd, then c'est la vie. Let me say this. As a Black man, no other Black person has offended me as much as Nate, and that includes NaOnka. Nate was a complete sellout who couldn't wait to run into the loving embrace of a busty White woman and leave his sisters behind. Lest you have an issue with me making this a racial thing, remember Cook Islands was all about race. And the White people certainly weren't shy about sticking together. Nate's a fake ass brother, a wannabe thug who grew up in the suburbs playing the violin. We have a name for these Step'n Fetchit ass mistrels. We call them House Negroes. (Well, we call them something else, but I'm trying to keep this semi-clean). Maybe you enjoyed Nate's shuckin and jivin ass, chopping up poop for your entertainment. But I'm planting my flag here, and my only regret is I didn't do this 100 spots earlier.

284. Jaclyn Schultz (San Juan Del Sur). Now, please put down the pitchforks before you attack me with them. Jaclyn fans. I totally understand why she has fans, and I think off the show Jaclyn was great. The issue on the show is, is that she isn't a legitimate character. She doesn't get her own positive arc about her inability to have kids, which they give to Jon, and we only see her as a side piece to a bigger character. Early on we see her with Val, then with Jon, and ultimately with Natalie in the end. Although off the show we know she did things and was pivotal in ensuring Jon didn't fuck up, we didn't fully get to see that on the show. We never get to see her as the big reason why Jon didn't blow up both their games with his ineptitude, and we don't get to see her talk about her own damn body not functioning correctly.

283: Debbie Beeb (Tocantins): I often forgot she was around during the pre merge, and low and behold she made it to final five. She had a cool little scene in the village where she talked about her kids at school, but jeez the way she talked to Sierra annoyed the hell out of me. Reminded me way too much of my mother. Probably my least favorite Timbira member. She has one of the best intro shots though.

282. Spencer Bledsoe (Cagayan): Sorry, Grant. In the beginning, Spencer seemed like he'd be alright as a fun underdog trying to scramble in a tribe full of amazing aggro women. Then, he stays over J'Tia (strike one). Once the swap hits, not only does he find new life, but he talks about HOW GREAT OF A SPOT HE IS IN WITH THE BRAINS WE GET IT (strike two). Then, after Kass flips on him (<3) he decides to lay into her because she has ZERO PERCENT CHANCE OF WINNING THE GAME NOW AND IS AN EVIL HARPY FROM HELL because she didn't sit back and let them take her out at like 9 or 8 when they didn't need her vote anymore? Spencer continued to get an editing blowjob throughout the course of the season with self-congratulatory confessionals mixed with christlike heroism. Then, Kass slays his dreams and the dreams of Probst/casuals/r/survivor fanboys everywhere. Idol'd by Lex

282. Boo Bernis (Fiji): Boo definitely played Survivor. He was on the bottom of the pecking order in the Syndicate and really didn't do much to change that. He let the Four Horsemen get Pagonged, and then he won individual immunity at final six when his number would have been up which allowed for Yau to execute the first successful Hidden Idol play in the show's history, which kicks ass because Yau Man. Then Boo got taken out when he failed to win immunity at final five. Boo was a nice enough guy it seemed, but we never really got anything fun out of him. He did give us one of the more descriptive soundbites to describe the bullshit have/have not twist with "It's not survival; it's thrival" which was admittedly awesome.
Off the show, Boo has done a lot to get multiple contestants cast. On the one hand, we have Boo to thank for James Clement. Great job Boo! On the other, we have Boo to thank for Russell Hantz, Shannon Elkins, and Colton Cumbie. Boo Boo! Still, plenty of major leaguers get by on a .250 average, so I let Boo slide a little bit. All the way to 282nd as it turns out.

280: Spencer Duhm (Toncatins): I think I like Spencer more than most people. Probably because Tocantins was my first season, and seeing a young guy on the show I could envision myself being in a few years was kinda cool. But, he was just...kinda there. His entire arc as a gay guy who could possibly rub a southern guy like JT the wrong way was briefly brought up in his boot episode, never addressed by the other party or the show, and then promptly forgotten about. And he singlehandedly led to his own demise, screwing up the challenge like that - a 4-0 lead became a 5-4 loss, for Christ's sake. Likable enough guy outside the show, but he really didn't do much in Tocantins, and him being the highest pre-merger there is a solid compliment.

279. Purple Kelly (Nicaragua) - look, I get it that there's an unnatural love for Nicaragua with this group, but seriously. There's a reason we joke about her. She may have the most invisible edit in Survivor history. She did nothing of note but quit. Why is she still here?

278. R.C. Saint-Amour (Philippines). On the show, I didn't mind R.C. that much. She seemed like she was there to play, and absolutely tore up challenges, especially in the water, and was a key contributor to Tandang. At the merge, she was voted out at the first TC she attended, which I found pretty funny. This seems like a very run-of-the-mill, maybe even top half, character. Things take a nasty dive where we see a very bitter R.C., constantly complaining and bitching and moaning, loathing every minute of not being in the game in a way we had never really seen. Seriously, being that miserable at your own free resort? Come on. The final straw was when R.C. compared the way people treated her in the game to that of a Holocaust victim. I try to keep post-show stuff off, but come on, really? That's a pretty nasty line to cross, so it's finally time to put her down.

277: Edna Ma (South Pacific): Her entire arc is her just being a loyal lapdog to Coach. An interesting character this does not make indeed. Also according to Don she apparently tried to eat Coach's shit? I haven't gotten that far in SoPa yet, so I'll post an update once I do.

276. Rob Mariano (All-Stars): ASS Rob is pretty bad. Not as bad as RI Rob but still pretty bad. The only good thing we got out of him this season was Romber (<3) but the whole ~Lex Thing~ was uncomfortable as well as, well, the entire season. Rob was a big reason why All-Stars turned into a dark cloud of awful. Not a fan. Also think had he won, we wouldn't have gotten RI sooooo :/

275. Sash Lenahan (Nicaragua): Sash, I think you're a liar. I think you're a phony. You said things to me; then you never lived up to them. I think you're spineless. And I hate that smile, and I think if I was you, I'd go to the doctor tomorrow and get that eye fixed so you stop doin' the wink.

274 Tyson Apostol (BvW): Who is this guy? There was a snarky guy named Tyson previously in Survivor who was outwardly mean to many of his fellow players. This guy looks a lot like Tyson (except with less muscle tone and with long ratty hair), but was way too nice to be the same Tyson from his previous appearances.
