Reality show cast trips are designed as 'pressure cabins' to force toxic conflict.

The trips are designed to put you in a pressure cabin together with everybody. To work through and bring up every issue... it's like a little mini forest fires that with any luck from production begin a big giant one big fire for the finale... it wouldn't matter where you are because it's going to be the most disgusting experience of arguments and toxicity.

This describes the standard operating procedure for reality TV production design.

I think the Bears will beat the Buccaneers and Nick Foles will look good.

I like Nick Foles in this. There's not a lot to like, it's Tom Brady and Nick Foles. I've seen this movie before... I feel like the Bears are going to have a great effort tonight... maybe not the perfect game but we just went toe-to-toe. We beat the Bucs and Nick Foles looks good.

The Bears defeated the Buccaneers 20-19.

The Bears offense will look good and put up about 250 yards against the Buccaneers.

I think the Bears offense go look good... I think they're going to have 200 yards... 250, maybe.

The Bears offense finished with 243 total yards, making PFT's 250-yard prediction nearly perfect.

Something weird will happen with the kickers in the Bears vs. Buccaneers game

Something weird is going to happen tonight. It's gonna be weird kicker night... I'm thinking Cairo Santos might do something good. I'm thinking... suck up [Ryan Succop] is going to do something weird. Whether it's missing three field goals, maybe missing an extra point.

Cairo Santos hit a game-winning 38-yard field goal with 1:13 left. Ryan Succop made all 4 of his field goals, but the prediction of kicker importance was correct.

It is better to be polarizing and polarizing than to be untrusted

It's better to be—there's no gray in this life. I mean, so it's black or white and polarizing and that's okay. It would be worse for me—it's okay if I'm not liked, it would be bad if I were not trusted. So that would really bother me, but I'm definitely trusted.

This is a subjective personal philosophy.

Reality show 'friends' are not actually friends; they are produced to be friends for the camera.

It's been more manufactured over the years... people aren't really friends, but they have to sort of produce them as if they're friends... you're living in this world and the things that you're arguing about are very important to you within this microcosm. But in no other situation of your life would they be important.

This is a widely supported industry observation from many former reality stars, though inherently subjective.

I would be the only honest politician and could successfully run the country because I don't bullshit.

I'd be the honest politician and be able to figure out how to play the game without being corrupted not bullshitting everybody a hundred percent... if you want to get things done and be wise and be strategic, I'm very good at that that I'm an Executor... doing the right in the country. I think I could absolutely do. I mean I know I could have.

This is a subjective claim about her own potential as a leader.
