For the first time since the last time, people have quit Survivor, deciding it wasn't worth it. One of them was NaOnka Mixon (above, right) a contestant no one liked because she stole food. Really.
According to the Star-Ledger, Probst put it this way:
Yes, she'll be branded the rest of her life. Thirty years from now she'll be involved in some great personal adversity, and everyone in the room will suddenly issue a collective gasp: you're the quitter from Survivor! We can't possibly depend upon you, or your judgment!
Quick question: how many seasons has Survivor had? Twenty-one. We may not remember the quitters, but it's not like the people who won are on the five-dollar bill, either.
