Haven’t posted in a while because I more or less didn’t watch the past two seasons, but I guess I’m watching this season so I’ll post overall rankings for now until I actually watch the full episode (I only caught service so I missed the whole challenge)
Awkward story but I’m team red so far (except for one of them almost negating everything). the boys are p lame this year.

Kevin (the space cadet comment is the funniest Ramsay insult I’ve heard in a long time though so I’m happy Kevin’s part of the cast I guess.)
Vanessa (I’m sure she’s nice and she arguably didn’t deserve that shit, but she still grated)
Actual worst and it’s too early for this much dislike tbh
Jackie jfc I really hope she bombs next week and goes Mike Aresta style but she won’t because my life is a joke but she’s horrendous and I cannot stand her at all.
In terms of how I feel about the actual drama that happened tonight because I noticed @rutsandjolts commenting on it, it was great TV, but only kindof funny. I remember in Season 12 (ugh), Gabriel and Scott (/gag) were supposed to be nominated and Gabriel, who was called to state the nominees, said the second nominee was Ralph, instead of himself. I hated Gabriel for most of that godawful season, and I can never really tell if he deserved to be safe over Ralph (who also grossed me out and was terrible and deserved all of this because he sucked it hard that night too), but he did that and it almost made the season. Comedy gold. Watching everyone’s faces in the background was priceless and ugh it was such a highlight of that season (which immediately went to shit right after but that’s none of my business). But when Ariel went rogue with the nominees and voted Vanessa instead of Manda, it honestly just made her look like an asshole. Firstly, she wasn’t even up for consideration to be nominated so what’s the point? at least Gabriel made an effort to save himself. Ariel didn’t have to protect anyone. It seemed so arbitrary. Also, “Vanessa isn’t a team player” coming from the mouth of someone who went against the team’s nominees is kindof the pot calling the kettle black. I kinda figured Ariel would stay for a while, but after we weed out Jackie, Meese, and some of the guys, I think I’d like to see Ariel out prior to black jackets. Between last week’s stealing the unfinished fish and this week, I’m just not a fan.
Before I get shit for choosing Gabriel over Ariel because I run a fan page for a blue team, I’m actually rooting for the girls this season (I more or less rooted for the girls in HK12 tbh), so that argument isn’t valid. I didn’t even like Gabriel going into his moment, but Ariel just came off as a douche. I miss season 6 Ariel; she’s a deity.
That being said, Manda, what the fuck were you upset about? you were supposed to be the second nominee. You should be happy about the rogue nominations.
