1. I would be afraid that self-doubt and mental reservations would trip me up.
I would think I was telling the truth, but subjective uncertainty might set that thing off. Then I would be in a position of having to defend myself against a polygraph machine. A lot of those q's were based on subjective feelings and beliefs. Like the one about her parents being proud. The question was not "Are your parents proud of you?" or "Do you have reason to think your parents are proud?" but "Do you BELIEVE they are proud?" (What if she were Catholic and said, "No, pride is a sin.")

3. my only problem was that there is too much gray area in the way i judge things
there are some things my parents are very proud of, some things less so.

also my parents are 2 people not one unit. father is proud of me if i sneeze, mother expects more

that was my only problem

7. An unmarked cab in Manhattan picks people up and quizzes them.
For each question they get correct, they win $25, I think, and there are "lifelines," like asking a random person on the street for the answer.

If the person misses too many questions, they get kicked out of the cab.

And I'm all about useless trivia. :P

22. I like that show
even if the contestants don't win money, they get a free cab ride.

I'd worry that I'd lose in a bad neighborhood!

15. that was such a hard thing to watch last night (SPOILER)
I can't believe she would utterly trash her marriage all for $100,000. I feel so sorry for the husband, you could feel the dagger hitting his heart.

17. yeah, why do it, not only in public, but a NATIONAL audience.
I'm kinda surprised he didn't walk out in the middle of it.

but yeah, it certianly got very awkward when they were talking about the honeymoon.

I wasnt surprised she missed the question that she did


She wanted to end her marraige but would have a lot of money when she did it. No marraige could survive that.

In fact, it would have been like getting a big prize at her husbands expense. Maybe she could have taken the money and run off with the ex boyfriend. His presence on the show made it seem like a toned down Jerry Springer episode.

She may have tried to convince herself that she was a good person, but what she did last night was so vile, she couldnt even fool herself.

The host was right; it should never have been aired.

And lastly, I am GLAD that she lost.

30. She must not feel too good about herself because she
failed the question if she still felt like she was a good person after all of that. That says it all to me. I can't watch that show. It is almost like watching Jerry Springer but with money.
