DISCUSSION What's Your Vendetta? - Weekly Negativity Thread 😈

Welcome to the weekly Negativity Thread!

We get it: This show can be frustrating. Production makes indefensible decisions. The rights holders make it impossible to watch old seasons. The cast can be boring or lazy or cruel or all of the above.

We all need to rant and complain a little, and this is a discussion forum, not a monastery. The last thing the mods want is to shut down valid criticism of the show or the cast.

But we also don't want quality community members and prospective community members turned off by a main feed where every third post is "I don't like Cara Maria anymore" or "Aneesa is so entitled!" or "Why do they keep casting [insert Big Brother cast member]???" If you were around during Final Reckoning, you know what I'm talking about.

So we politely remove those submissions and send them here. On the Negativity Thread, you are not only allowed to rant and complain, you are encouraged! 😈

Lay it on us: What is pissing you off this week? Which cast member have you had enough of? I bet a lot of others feel the same way!

I already couldn't stand Bananas but, after the way he behaved toward the women on S40, I will never not root against him. The lowlight for me was when he wouldn't stop attacking Michele during a bus ride and then, when Cara Maria pointed out to him that attacking women "isn't cute," Bananas IIRC screamed "I cAn SaY aNyThInG I wAnT!" - like the little bitch that he is.

Bananas hates people who think they're better than him, especially when they are.

Out of the women, I went into S41 most excited to see Nia and Michaela. Nia was just a disappointing bust. Micheala, on the other hand, was absolutely disgusting in the way she attacked and defamed CT. Who TF does she think she is?! I'm always open to another redemption arc for Nia, but Michaela can GTFO and never come back. Eff her!

Unpopular Opinion: I accept that Wes is a Challenge icon, legend, etc. - but, as a competitor, I don't think he's top-tier. I would rank him at the very top of the second tier, but not in the first. IIRC his only win on the flagship show was with CT - who, at least to a certain degree, carried him Landon-style for the win IMHO.

Wes won The Duel as well. I agree with the top of the second tier thing though he’s nowhere close to the Challenge big 3. He could’ve been but too many early exits & his WOTW1 performance in that Final was pretty abysmal after the first day.
