The Bachelor was on last night and they had a weird date in Lake Tahoe where they were taught survival skills - they had to eat a worm and drink their pee. Would you do this on t.v. to garner the approval and be liked by a bachelor or bacherlorettes?

Yes, be a sport
No, are you kidding that is disgusting
Yes, only if others did it too; or
Not only would I say no way, I would voice my opinion about how dumb that was and risk not getting a rose

NO - USA Gymnastics should be at least decertified

1. Yay, but way too late.
2. No, but I’m hoping they have some alternate structure in mind before they decertify so Level 10s and Elites can still compete this season.
