Andrew and Neil on the amazing race
They were signed up the same season that they start playing on the same team to 'rehab their rivalry' to the public. Kevin saying it's a bad idea is 90% of why they agreed to it.
(Maybe the Moriyamas are willing to cut Neil some monetary slack % if he wins and gives all the money to one of Ichirou's charities also so they're determined to do that. Still, it's mostly Kevin saying it's stupid that makes them agree.)
The FBI are freaking out that Neil's running all over the entire world but also Browning cannot deny that Andrew and Neil have excellent on-camera chemistry.
They get orange as their team color and Andrew bemoans it because he thought he was done having to look at this particular eye-searing color but Neil vibrates with excitement.
Andrew is unbeatable at any and all trivia questions challenges, Neil can, will and has eaten anything.
There is one leg where the reward for coming in first is a delicious vegetarian meal and Neil intentionally gets them in second place because he will eat bull testicle no problem but will not eat that. Andrew's mild irritation over this is absolutely edited to look like a huge fight since it's the literal only inter-personal drama the team has the entire season. They absolutely start shit with other teams and do ZERO alliances and just continue to whiz right through the competition without any.
Andrew drives and can whiz through any technically difficult challenge, Neil gets them through any and all direction related issues through his foreign language abilities and also for some of the countries he's like "oh that's like two streets over. It's ice cream in the front and weapons shop in the back." He says this shit to the camera and no one knows if he's joking (he's not).
Andrew curls up in Neil's lap on quite a few flights just because he's having a bad time with that. Neil always just starts saying / doing things that just cannot be shown on TV to protect his privacy.
If Neil has to close his eyes and Andrew takes him by the hand as they go through a house of mirrors labyrinth challenge then no one says anything about it.
They win by a landslide the host comes up, "So how do you feel about Neil now?" Andrew just looks at Neil, "I hate every inch of him." he says and they walk off hand in hand to the great confusion of literally everyone.
Edit: Thanks @the-inner-musings-of-a-worm for the idea once again!

Tens of thousands of Georgians have gathered in the streets of the capital, Tbilisi, in response to a call from the pro-Western president to press for the annulment of Saturday's election.
Earlier, President Salome Zourabichivili, who has sided with the opposition, called on Georgians to rally outside parliament, telling the BBC's Steve Rosenberg that this was a "crucial moment".
She appealed to the international community to stand behind her country's population after a disputed election that she says was "totally falsified".
The ruling Georgian Dream party and the election commission are adamant the result, giving the government almost 54% of the vote, was free and fair.
However, Zourabichvili urged Georgia's partners needed to see what was happening, adding that the government's victory was "not the will of the Georgian people" who wanted to keep their European future.
Zourabichvili made clear the protest would be "very peaceful", adding that she did not believe Georgia's authorities wanted confrontation.
It is not entirely clear what she and the four opposition groups hope to achieve by bringing Georgians on to the main avenue in front of the parliament on Monday.
"The main thing we want here is to get what we deserve - legal elections. No-one had any idea this would happen. At first we were frustrated, then we realised what happened and now we're angry," said Lasha, 22.
Liza, 20, said wanted "another election that isn’t forged".
"I’m really happy a lot of young people are here. Most of the speakers from the four opposition parties are saying don’t give up," she added.
Another protester, Keta, told the BBC that she felt "cheated and frustrated". "Me and my friends and my family deserve way better than we have right now... We will fight to the end until we get our justice."
The president said it was up to the people and the political parties to decide what happened next.
"My call was to have a demonstration but where does the Georgian population stand? It's what we're going to see tonight."
"Maybe we won't be able to achieve it today or tomorrow," she said.
"There are a number of things that can be done. There can be an international review of some of the elements of the election, there can be a call for new elections. In what period of time I don't know."
The European Union, Nato and the US have called for a full investigation into allegations by monitoring missions of vote fraud before and on the day of Saturday's vote.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said that Georgians had a "right to see that electoral irregularities are investigated swiftly, transparently and independently."
She added that "Georgians, like all Europeans, must be the masters of their own destiny."
The call for protest echoes weeks of demonstrations that brought Tbilisi's central Rustaveli Avenue to a standstill for weeks earlier this year.
There were clashes with riot police, who responded with water cannon, tear gas and force, as Georgians tried to stop the government pushing through a Russian-style "foreign agents" law targeting media and civil society groups that have foreign funding.
Ultimately the protests failed and the EU froze Georgia's bid to join the 27-country union, accusing it of democratic backsliding.
The government has clearly prepared for further protests. Last week it emerged that the interior minister had bought new water cannon vehicles and other equipment for riot police, including lethal weapons, for use "when it becomes necessary".
Georgian Dream Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze has told the BBC that alleged violations ahead and during the vote were confined to "just a couple" of polling stations. He said that "the general content of the elections was in line with legal principles and the principle of democratic elections."
But President Zourabichvili said the scale of election fraud was unprecedented: "Everything was used that we've ever heard of in this country in a parallel way."
She alleged that, before the elections, families who were dependent on state funds had seen their identity cards taken away.
At the time it was difficult to tell why, she said, but it then became clear the identity cards were being used for so-called carousel voting in Georgia's new electronic voting system - "when one person can vote 10, 15, 17 times with the same ID".
Tumblr media
She has also described the result of the vote as a "Russian special operation", stopping short of accusing the Kremlin of direct intervention. Instead, she accused the government of using a "very sophisticated" Russian-inspired propaganda strategy.
The government has vehemently denied having anything to do with Russia, pointing out it is the only country in the region not to have diplomatic ties with Moscow.
Russia fought a five-day war with its southern neighbour in 2008 and still occupies 20% of Georgian territory.
The Kremlin has has denied having anything to with the election and ridiculed Georgia's pro-EU president, whose term in office comes to an end in December.
A handful of international leaders have congratulated Georgian Dream for securing a fourth term in office in the contested election, including Hungary's prime minister, Viktor Orban.
Orban was due to arrive in Tbilisi on Monday on a two-day visit that has annoyed several of his European partners because of the message it sends the Georgian government.
Germany's foreign ministry spokesman said the Hungarian leader could travel where he wanted, although it was clear he was not speaking on behalf of the EU.
Hungary currently holds the presidency of the EU, but foreign policy chief Josep Borrell stressed that it had "no authority in foreign policy".
"Whatever Mr Orban says in his visit to Georgia, he does not represent the European Union," Borrell told Spanish radio.

i now understand the anger people describe when they see other folks just going about their lives entirely unaffected by disasters
#i'm living in a situation that many people are comparing to hurricane katrina and you're fucking talking about homestuck cosplay#i dont fucking care about over the garden wall i'm going into my third day without electricity and nowhere nearby has gas for our generator#our freezers are fridges now and its only a matter of time til we have to start throwing ungodly amounts of food out#we can't leave our house because the road even outside of our driveway has gotten progressively worse and we can barely drive across#there was another landslide about five minutes away. there's another town nearby that was completely leveled#i saw a guy stranded on the side of the road with signs taped to his car asking for a spare tire#i saw another car flipped entirely onto its back and halfway into the river which is still raging#one of the houses i'm used to driving by every single day that was huge and where we got our chickens from is gone. like it was never there#the area it was in just looks like another part of the river now. i wonder if people will play in it in the future#nobody has power or cell service. countless people haven't been able to contact their family members in four days#and yet it feels like the only people talking about it are the people who fucking live here. nobody else is looking at appalachia#except for the shithead tourists who like to go into threads meant for resource updates asking about their stupid fucking vacations#conservatives are saying we deserve it for being libs and libs are saying we deserve it for being conservatives#both of them call us hicks and use our accents whenever they do an impression of a stupid person

Trump shouldn't even be eligible to run, and that doesn't matter because even if he loses, there is a solid chance the supreme court just goes ahead and decides he didn't lose, and like then what? This supreme court has already declared that laws aren't real I guess so like... what are we even doing here. Like what happens from here. Trump dies and we hope it goes back to how it used to be? Do we think the fuckin creeps propping him up will back off now that they know that any braindead moron can be made president if he is hateful enough?

i’ve heard some of you say my library is cursed, and i resent that claim. however. this is my library’s copy of crouching tiger, hidden dragon (2000)
Tumblr media
[ID: a dvd case for crouching tiger, hidden dragon (2000). the cover design is amateurishly collaged together from various stills in the film. both the english and chinese title are at the bottom in yellow letters, the chinese title appearing to glow; at the top in round green sans serif font is the phrase “A Color Feature Film” /end ID]

for a popular band i dont see nearly enough people freaking the fuck out about the lumineers on here! i have to do everything my damn self! anyway listen to their album III in order WITH the music videos and maybe you'll feel significantly worse about everything ever
#every time one of the songs from this album came on in the car id so casually go to boom like 'oh so this one is about ___'#and it's just an album about a dysfunctional family. like that is literally the plot of the album. they r called the sparks#it starts with donna and follows her alcoholic daughter who starts the abuse (it's technically started by donna but the album doesnt#focus on her so it 'starts' with gloria)#and how her addiction and abuse bleeds into her son who becomes a gambler and how his son then turns out etc etc#all to the most boptastic sounds and vocals you ever heard#like oh my fucking god the way they released this album was SUCH an experience#because it was done in three parts (gloria to her son jimmy to his son junior respectively)#so you had to like. wait for the rest of the album with each part and each part added a generation to what you knew from the beginning#was going to be tragic like you know from donna's song at the very start when it's said 'you hate the name junior'#that the rot will travel all the way down to junior's generation#they're doomed from the start. they're a family. they tried. they failed#and also 'leader of the landslide' as a song alone is batshit insane and one of my favourite songs ever#but as an expression on generational trauma? HOLY SHIT?#like looking at the person who started the trauma and caused this constant awful cycle#and instead of saying all those clinical overused words instead calling them THE LEADER OF THE LANDSLIDE#LIKE YEAH ACTUALLY? THEY GOT BURIED TOO BUT THEY FUCKING STARTED IT#AND WE'RE ALL CRAWLING THROUHG THE DIRT BECAUSE OF IT JUST TRYING TO FIND OUR FEET#IN THE WAKE OF THIS DISASTER THAT YOU CAUSED. YOU LEAD US HERE#going insane#the lumineers#'why r u talking about this album specifically when u heavily implied to aiaia about writing a touya fic' shhhhhhhh
