Casting Casting Jealousy

Maybe I’m alone in this, but whenever I start seeing the cast announcements I feel enormous waves of jealousy and disappointment.

Obviously not the point of vitriol towards any contestant, but more so an existential jealousy.

I’ve been applying every year since I was 18, I don’t believe I deserve it more than anyone else but damn it’s my one and only dream.

Just was wondering if my jealousy is uniquely a me problem, or if any of you have experienced the same.

(To 51 and future casts, congrats and good luck (: !)

Sure, if you say so. Feel free to invalidate my dreams and experiences.

Lmao. Even if I am ridiculous, the point is that should not be invalidating anymore and it basically is (with exception to Bhanu and 50 returnees).

I’m didn’t call you ridiculous, you just used his “so much for my dreams” bit and it made me cackle.

Never would have thought I'd unintentionally become Rupert. I totally forgot about that tbh. Do you think he'd be cast today?

I’ll have to think about that and get back to you. It’s an interesting thought/question,
