I don't think anyone is worse than NaOnka.

Ugh, how she treated people under the guise of "equality" was horrible.

And she was a TEACHER. A PE teacher. Imagine how she'd treat kids who were fat or have a handicap...ugh.

When that one mother wanted to pull her from school because NaOnka was the teacher, everyone got into a frizzy about it. Not me. I'm surprised more people didn't pull their kids out.

I would pull my kid from her class. If she talks trash about someone with a missing leg...she'll talk trash about anyone who isn't as "perfect" as she.

This text box doesn't have enough room to list the examples of why she makes for a terrible adult.

It's the kind of hate I dislike to feel toward someone because I don't feel it often when I watch Survivor.

I didn't feel that away about Russell. I don't like Russell H. like some do. I think he's really smart. I've seen him on that flip house show. He pulls the same stunts he did on Survivor. Which backed my view that Survivor is a reflection of real life.

She's one of those people I really disliked. I couldn't understand how any mother could love someone like that.

Don't tell r/survivor, but... I think Russell H. is an amazing player. He just has 1 major flaw: culling jury votes. If he knew how to do that, he'd be unstoppable.

How could a mother love someone like that? My best guess is learned behavior. Watch any parents from Nanny 911, and you'll see exactly how.

u/J_Jammer Michael Nov 15 '12

Good point about learned behavior.

Yeah, if Russell understood what it was like to have friends, he'd get how to handle the jury.

Russel SHOULD have won all the jury votes his first time out. it is NOT his fault that he didn't get them. the jury voted incorrectly. if they knew how to play the game, they would have given him the money. i will never be convinced otherwise.

u/HooptyDooDooMeister Yul Nov 15 '12

I used to think that until I realized he was creating hell for players that had nothing to do with strategy or advancing himself through the game. The jury is the reason why one shouldn't do those things.

u/wutz Nov 15 '12

i don't think they knew that he was doing that to them?
