Why would you NOT go on Survivor?

I'd never apply -- to spend a month starving on a beach for a one in 16/18/19/20 shot at $600K post-tax? Not worth it, especially with the added month of
travel time and etc.
Also, I know that despite knowing the cardinal rule of never allowing yourself to become the leader (unless your name is Tom Westman), I'd wind up in that position and get my ass sent to the Ponderosa well before the merge. Plus, if there were a gross food challenge, I'd make this look appealing in comparison:

Oh, forgot to mention that i'd hate to have a group of fantards that went crazy over me and created a fan myspace idolizing me. If everyone didn't hate
me, of course

Reason #1 - you are as likely to make jury as be an early boot based strictly on the random casting process. In another season, Mary and Mikey B go far in the
game, in this season they had a wannabe mastermind who turned out to be an absolute fucking moron in Joel. Put all that energy into being on Survivor just to
end up on a tribe with Joel and Kathy. Nope, don't think so.
Reason #2 - TAR>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Survivor in terms of shows I'd go on. Reason #3 - No ACL means nothing physically demanding like Survivor for Jude. Reason #4 - I will never apply for the show. -SJ™ |

I'm afraid I'd be the first Survivor to drown. Wouldn't that make for some great posts here.

Even if they ever opened the show to Canadians, I wouldn't apply. I've survived on an island: I lived on a Canary Islands beach for a few months. Not quite the same, but close enough. It was a great experience but not one I'd choose to repeat that I'm some 27 years older than I was then. |

Reason #2 - TAR>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Survivor in terms of shows I'd go on. Big red ecks. Of course I'm damned with either show since I'm an aspiring screenwriter and even though I live nowhere near California, don't look anything like a model, and the fact that I wouldn't be able to resist tossing in references to past seasons/contestants, I'm gonna inevitably be labeled a mactor. |

I can't think of a reason why I wouldn't go on... being a mediawhore is like my dream. <3

Because I wouldn't want to be known as the dumbest Survivor. I love people too much and couldn't be a cut throat. Well, I take that back. If they
didn't have the cameras rolling, maybe.

My idea of "roughing it" is a rude waiter.
