In keeping with
the tradition of
Blood vs. Water, every single entry on this countdown will begin with
the cursing out of Brad Culpepper. Enjoy.
#115.
The Immunity Chicken
Philippines - Episodes 1-6
Survivor.
A legendary game show where hardy warriors compete for the
greatest of prizes.
Some of these prizes are monetary
Some times you are competing for glory
Once in a while you might even win a spouse
But
it wasn't until the twenty-fifth season of the show that we heard the
words that every legendary Survivor has always wanted to hear.
"Guys, today you are competing for a chicken."
Yes,
we open the countdown with the goofiest immunity idol that has ever
been featured on the show. No, I'm not talking about The Immunity Willard.
I am talking about the famous Immunity Chicken from Survivor:
Philippines.
What the fuck
First
off, anyone who knows me knows I am a sucker for a good chicken joke.
I had two entries based around chickens on version 2 of this
countdown, and I have at least two scheduled for this version as well.
Three if you count all the Tommy Wiseau jokes I am going to
make.
"Yankee Doodle was wrong, Jeff. I stuck my finger
up there and it wasn't finger lickin'"
But
I'm sorry. I don't get how they can have that many amazing
immunity idols over the years, and then in season twenty-five they
decide that okay now we are going to mix it up and this time
you
will be competing for poultry.
An awesome immunity idol
An awesome immunity idol
An awesome immunity idol
A chicken
I
really don't have that much more to say about it. I mean,
again,
the immunity idol in Survivor: Philippines was A GOD DAMN WOODEN
CHICKEN. And they kept rewarding people with a
chicken for
six episodes. How can you not love that?
Held aloft like the sword Excalibur
By the way, I have to tell you that there is
already a bit of controversy with this entry. Yes, it's the
first
entry on the Funny 115, and I am already getting some complaints from
my readers. Here is some negative feedback I received about
my
Immunity Chicken entry, which was sent to me a couple of weeks ago,
before I had even written it:
Mario,
Before
you write about the Immunity Chicken, I think you should know that idol
is actually based on Filipino mythology. That is called a Sarimanok.
It is our version of a phoenix. It is supposed to
bring good luck to whoever can catch it. If you write an entry and call
it the Immunity Chicken, people might get offended.
Well
first off, I have no intention to offend anyone with the Funny 115.
That sort of accusation is very hurtful to me.
After
I received that email, I decided that when I wrote this entry, I would
never again call it the Immunity Chicken. I decided I would
only
do it a few times at the beginning of the writeup, and then after that
I would find some other name that would be more respectful and,
hopefully, more culturally sensitive.
And this is the best I came up with.
Kalabaw! Wins Big Black Cock!
Yes, and now you came to the real point of the entry.
Now I just get to refer to the Immunity Chicken as Big Black
Cock.

Here you go, enjoy Big Black Cock
Abi, I'm sorry. You'll have to give back Big Black
Cock.
Tandang! Wins Big Black Cock!

And
so there you go. You thought you were getting a chicken
entry,
and then it turned into a chance for me just to make dick
jokes.
Welcome to the Funny 115.
I hope you guys are ready for this.
Why couldn't I ever get Big Black Cock???
The sex therapist especially wanted it
By
the way, if you ever re-watch Philippines, pay attention to how often
R.C. winds up with Big Black Cock. She is
a popular
girl.
Thanks guys
Sweet, thanks
Awesome, thanks
Just like Boston Rob, fourth time's a charm
Okay that's it.
Psyche. No, it's not.
I've been waiting six months to write this entry. I could
keep going all day.
Okay guys, who wants cock?
Jeff Kent, don't play with your cock
I know for certain Mrs. Garrett would have a problem with
this
Jeff Probst choking the chicken
Okay that's it. I promise.
Enjoy the rest of the countdown. :)
We got cock!
P.S. Here's a great quote from my co-host on The Survivor Historians,
Mike Bloom. I told him I was writing this entry and he said
"I love it. It's like the Shaft of
the immunity idols."
