Seriously, I don't know what to do. I simply don't. Should I stop watching The Amazing Race? I like the show, usually, but I don't quite know how much more stupidity I can put up with this season. I don't. Maybe I should step back, let this season go, and start up again next season. Because, I'm about at my wit's end here. Let's examine just a wee bit about what happened last night, yes?
First, you have the insanity that is Terence and Sarah. There was a "Fast Forward" (it allows you to complete a separate single task before going to the pit stop instead of doing the regularly assigned ones) given this week. Both Nick and Starr and Terence and Sarah decided that they would attempt the Fast Forward rather than trying to complete the regularly assigned tasks. Well, first off, obviously only one team should be doing a Fast Forward, not two. To be the second team to attempt the Fast Forward you have to be absolutely, positively sure that you can finish it more quickly than the group that's already on their way to it.
Terence and Sarah were the second team to go for it, which involved heading to a restaurant to eat food. Everyone that has ever even heard of a reality show knows that when there is a task that involves food it means that the contestants are going to have to eat something horrifically disgusting (cow gonads, rat guts, whatever). Well, Terence is a vegetarian. That's right, he's a vegetarian. Prior to that little trip to the restaurant, the man hadn't eaten meat in 15 years. 15 years! And then he acted surprised when he found out that he was going to have to eat meat to complete the Fast Forward. What?!? He balked. He tried to swallow as much as he could of the sheep's rear end, so he wasted a ton of time, and then he balked. Sarah, who didn't want to do the Fast Forward anyway as soon as she saw that Nick and Starr were going to get there first went along with him, but if I was his partner, I might have killed him right then and there. Either that, or I would have force fed the dish to him.

Yeah I watched it once and I did not enjoy watching it for long and so I switched channel. My mom told me that the people there are not thinking much and just go and go without any tactics or strategy made up at all. I think you should still watch it and just watch who's the dumbest of all.

I will say though that Toni & Dallas aced the whole leg with very little mistakes. They even had fun during the whole episode. I think they knew that with or without Nick & Starr taking the Fast Forward they probably would have been second. See they took the time to read clues correctly and had minimal problems with drivers.
Nick/Starr and Toni/Dallas raced this leg perfectly fine meaning everyone else is crazy. Though looking at next week's preview, Nick/Starr are ready to join the crazy.
