Funny stuff like 'Red blah blah'. It was major luls and I loved how they could translate the Chinese into such. Then again I do speak Chinese so it probably came off as more funny to me. Pronunciation is tough though, you have to pronounce it exactly right and not speak with some slang with it. But I pretty much suck at Chinese so lol. That's why I loved the task. It was really easy for Tammy and Victor, but you could say the same for tasks that require nothing but muscle

Yeah. That's the way I'd do it. I think they absolutely do that. That's why they did racetrack tasks in TAR family so we could have drama. That's why there was so much climbing in Sara's season.

Are you going to cry foul every episode? M/L are good at swimming. Ugh, the detour task last week is so unfair! C/J are cheerleaders. They are good at dancing, they have an unfair advantage! For god's sake, it's a detour. If you speak Chinese you'll know that chef was much more lenient with Kisha and Jen.

Some are athletes, some know different languages, some have knowledge and wisdom from age, some are well travelled, some have are better looking (yes that is an advantage). That's what makes the race interesting.

Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	It is not that the Chinese taxi drivers didn't understand the racers - they just had the Olympics where I am sure they spent hours learning different places in different languages - it is that they didn't want to take them. There are many places they will not go because the chances of getting a fare back is very hard so they just play dumb. Many times you need to pay double the fare to make it worth it for the driver to bring you. T/V probably knew this since they were just there for the Olympics.
