before i get into my blog i want to direct everyone to go read my first blog i did dedicated to Na Onka because i know i'm gonna get a lot of feedback about the villain side of her:
color me villain
now lets get to it...
Na Onka has been getting a lot of negative feedback from viewers, bloggers & even the lovely host of the show and i just want to say each and every one of you "haters" are pretty f'n stupid. let me break it down for you:
1.) it is a GAME. not a game like monopoly or yahtzee but a game in which you live in the wild and sleep in the wild and eat nothing more than a half a coconut shell full of rice a day and you are competing for 1 million dollars.
- In the past we have seen the likes of Bob, Sandra, Natalie, Danni, Chris, Amber.. etc etc win because they were took to the end for the sole fact that obviously they are beatable.. right? you don't have to answer that because i know i'm right. You have people like Parvati, Russell, Sugar, Stephenie, Rob & Twila who don't get the vote just because the jury didn't appreciate their game play and voted out of pure spite & bitterness.. so to say that Na Onka didn't have a shot at winning this game.. i think she did. We've seen less deserving people win. Had Na Onka went to the end with Purple Kelly & Dan she would have won hands down. Yes, she was a bitch. but she was likable by her alliance. Brenda, Chase, Sash.. they liked her.
2.)She was a bitch. who the hell cares! she was a bitch who brought ratings!!
- please enlighten me on a single episode that didn't end with "Stay tuned for previews for our next episode" that didn't show a preview clip of something Na Onka was doing or saying. Half the time it was showing shit about her that didn't even happen! (i.e At merge she was shown in extremely clean clothes saying she would vote out Alina.. did that happen on the show.. no! it was a clip from probably day 1 based on her clothes. this past week everyone was talking about Na Onka did it this time. Dan was shown saying if she was one of the guys she would never get away with it... was that even shown on the show? NO! - Na Onka was ratings gold for Nicaragua!!) It is a game for one million dollars! She not once hesitated to speak her mind and give a damn what anyone thought of her throughout the entire season when she had to wake up next to them in the morning so why is everyone so surprised that she was "selfish" and didn't give up her reward when she wasn't? Despite whether she's leaving or not she still won that reward. she fought her ass for it! she deserved it. & make no mistake about it Jeff didn't say anyone was required to give up their spot. Holly volunteered for that, now make no mistake i LOVE holly. and i truly honestly feel she deserves to win based on game play & strategy, but nobody made her volunteer. If anyone should have given up their spot it should have been Dan. Even Jeff said "you didn't do anything and you're enjoying the reward."
3.)She's the worst player ever!!!
- umm no she's not. she made it to final 9 and had she not quit i'm pretty sure she would have gotten farther... after 21 seasons & 16-20 people per season there's an average of about 9 people per season who didn't make it as far as she did... kinda speaks for itself. she's not the worst player ever. She did great in challenges, she won rewards, she didn't fly under the radar, she had an amazing alliance & an immunity idol... i can assure she's nowhere near the worst.
4.) She quit. big deal!
- Osten, Janu, Ian, Kathy... the list goes on. Several people have quit this game! Has anyone ever gotten such a big backlash as Na Onka? no! why? because Na Onka has been given the villain role this season. She's the bitch we all love to love (okay maybe i love to love her.. you guys love to hate her.. admit, you LOVE to hate her. Nicaragua would be a big kumbaya love fest without her. Especially since Shannon left so early) I don't condone quitting. I would love to see people try and stick it out, but ultimately its their decision. she wasn't the first and she won't be the last. Is it fair to Brenda, Alina & Marty? hell yes it is! doesn't matter if she would have quit or stayed in the game they would still be out! wtf the does it matter to the three of them? oh there are thousands of people at home who would love to play this game that didn't get the shot and then she quits, again WHO THE HELL CARES! get over yourself! you wouldn't have been cast anyway. you still would have lost out to another up and coming actor/model found on the streets of LA like whatshisname (dammit, Benry!)
5.) Her family is ashamed of her! can you believe this bitch teaches kids!!
- I'm not sure what kind of family you have that would ever be ashamed of you for something you did but just because you don't have love and support from yours doesn't mean others don't from theirs. yes, they probably wanted her to stick it out to the end and go for the money but she didn't. thats her decision, not theirs. she still got the opportunity of a lifetime, she still made it (she says) as far as she could... (you, me or anyone else for that matter doesn't know for sure, its her body, its her word. we didn't feel what she felt, we gotta take her word for it.) She was labeled as a physical education teacher at a YMCA.. there's no denying she was pretty physically fit. I honestly don't see what she did that was so despicable. she didn't "tackle" (seriously people, learn the definition of tackle) an amputee to the ground. she didn't do anything or say anything that i wouldn't have done or said if i was in a game for a million dollars. she spoke her mind and stepped up when people got in her face. had she just sat there she would have been boring and people would have criticized her for that too! just go read the blog linked at the beginning of this post. I'm pretty sure her employer has known her long enough to know the personality portrayed on television was the personality of someone competing for a life changing amount of money. Obviously thats not how she comes across in her every day life or she wouldn't have that job in the first place... and if she's so bad then you need to talk down to her employer for hiring someone like that to be around kids.
She was my favorite this season. sucks she's gone. i wish she wouldn't have quit, but she did. it was her decision. get over it people. she's nowhere near as bad as you guys are wanting her to be or trying to make her out to be. brush up on your Survivor history.. she's a tame little kitten compared to some of the villains the shows had.
I think u made some excellent points Michael and I agree with you where it comes to her off the island life as well. Recently someone left a comment to my blog about trying to get Nay fired..I deleted it. Her life on the outside has nothing to do with her Survivor experience. Far as her game. I have always felt Nay had a good game going on. She had an awesome alliance and an idol and a rather sure shot at F3. I am very disappointed she quit.
ReplyDeleteShe was a bitch. who the hell cares! she was a bitch who brought ratings!! - Yeah. You're right. Fistpump to that!
ReplyDeleteShe's a disgrace! I have no respect for anyone who quits. There are tons of people who would have loved to be in her shoes and she quits and makes a mockery of the game. I agree with the host of the show on this one he is 100 percent correct with his assessment of Naonka. Naonka only made it that far because her alliance protected her knowing she was easy to win against. Sash wanted to go to the end with her soo bad. As for the comparison u tried to make with past winners, those people were well liked my their tribe mates which is why they won. I am not going to get into the Sandra argument because you and I never agree on it.
