Unofficial APPRENTICE thread for 2/10
My wife thinks I'm weird. All I did was mention that it would be cool if there was a version of The Apprentice hosted by Sun Tzu. It could play like a cross between The Apprentice, Survivor, and Samurai Deli.

"Michael, you failed to attack complete emptiness with complete fullness. Also, you failed to attack corporate alliances as your first option, choosing instead the hostile takeover, which is the worst option of all, only to be used as a last resort. Therefore, Michael..."

HEEEEEIIIIIII!!

(Sound of sword severing Michael's head from his body)

"You're gone."

So is ginbarn right? Am I weird?

1. At last! BOTH teams suck! NO WINNER!!!
There is a God, he loves us all so much...

Neither Magna nor Net Worth won. BOTH teams turned out really sucky commercials! There will be NO reward this week because there is NO winner! And someone still has to be fired!

Michael...Michael...Michael...bwahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

3. I could not believe how badly BOTH commercials sucked!
Then, in an "in your face" move, they show how a REAL commercial works. They're giving away free samples to compensate us for what we saw tonight.

4. I love it!
Carolyn and the Donald used the commerical to rag on both teams a little more! You're right - both ads sucked stale hopper cones!

7. Another great moment in television history

If you manage to make Carolyn's eyes pop out of her head and you're not her better half holding a dozen roses and plane tickets to Acapulco, you fucked up real bad.

12. Man did they both suck! I also thought Dove's commercial
sucked though. I didn't figure out that it was a green tea scented soap until the last two seconds. THEN I thought hmmm.. I might like that. All of this other b.s. was just getting in the way.

But I just had to vote for Miss Piggy anyway. She sold the ad in the end.

8. The Dove.com site was CLOGGED tonight
Finally got through. What can I say? Miss Piggy was definitely the most refreshed. So I entered the sweepstakes, asked for the body wash sample for ginbarn, and probably wound up on a couple more mailing lists. What the hell. Could mean a trip to NYC for the two of us. And that means actual NYC pizza. Mmmmmmmmmmm.

11. Sure did - still can't believe it
In fact, I'm still on! Why am I taking up bandwidth? Logging off of Dove.com now to make it easier for you...

16. I don't think so
If that were the case, everyone who voted for the showgirl is SOL.

13. Ya still awake?
Sorry if I threw in spoilers - I thought all time zones got fair treatment on this show because of the Vegas bookies.

And thanks for the feedback. I used to do a little amateur stand-up; that might account for some of my silliness.
