Here's the link to the tweet about the "Jeopardy!" spoilsport, Yogesh Raut.
And here's the link to the "Jesus Christ is Alive" trend. As it looks over there right now, it seems that "Jesus Christ is Alive" is a trend because there are a lot of posts saying "Jesus Christ is Alive" is trend.
As for the "#Survivor" trend, there's this:

Is that Johnny Depp passed out on the ground?
This reminds me of your previous posts on Accidental Caravaggio amd Accidental Wes Anderson. Looking them up led me to a whole Reddit on accidental art:

Jesus is alive! And he is coming for you!
I don't mean "you" in the generals sense of whoever may read this, I mean Jesus is coming for you, Althouse!
Ever wonder why a person doesn't see baby aborted at 9 month gestation as a person? Ever wonder why a Supreme Court can't identify what a woman is? It's spiritual darkness.
"This one problem we've often had is when God gives you an understanding, a knowledge of something, and you can see it so clearly and you try to explain it to somebody, and they say, "No, no. It's not that way." And they can't see it. It's almost frustrating. But the Spirit gives you an edge. And a lot of times you know things and you can't really tell how you know them. People say, "How do you know that?" And you say, "Well, I don't know how I know that, but I just know it." They say, "Oh, you can't know that." "Well, I do." You have an anointing from the Holy One, and He gives you this intuitive knowledge of people, many times, of circumstances and, of course, in this particular instance it is of people. "They went out from us." This intuition, you knew that they weren't really of us.
I have not written unto because you know not the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth (1Jo 2:21).
And again, knowledge by intuition. We know the truth. How do we know the truth? Because the Spirit of God has planted the truth in our hearts. We know that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. We know that He died for our sins. Try to explain that to someone who hasn't had the work of the Spirit within their heart. And all of the doubts and all of the misgivings and everything. So you know, thank God you know." (Chuck Smith c1983)

A consensus by virtue of demos-cracy, democracy, or dictatorship.
I think someone's definitely On The Spectrum. . . . .
Jesus needs to head into the inner cities and start spreading the word...
Jeopardy isn't really all that great a quizzing show as quizzing goes, and I write this as a long-time fan, though I rarely watch any longer. I was never a great fan of game shows outside of Jeopardy, but the best quizzing shows (in terms of thinking power) I have seen were What's My Line, Password, and Who Wants to be a Millionaire. Jeopardy rewards quick thinking and a broad knowledge of facts and trivia with some categories that only occasionally requires one to think a bit outside the box to figure out the "answer".
Until now, I didn't realize that incentivizing the next generation of quizzers to excel was something I had to worry about.
I didn't even know there was a community called "quizzers" until this morning.
I clicked through to see what this guy's beef was. I read his comments and still don't know. Is his 'social justice' comment a statement about the lack of black lady representation on the show? Is that it?
I will say I agree with the idea the show isn't a great judge of quizzing compared to say the high school quiz shows. You do need to be good with the buzzer. In the TOC everyone knows nearly every answer so the difference between success and failure is your being in tune with the button. That's not quizzing...
The show's answers in most seasons have always tended to favor English Lit Yalies over STEM*...and they do have a 'type' for the show. I'd reference the socially awkward nerds they've tried to keep of the show but keep coming back and qualifying...soon you start to look like the shits you are...
For the record I passed the in person test and thought I did well in the mock game rehearsal but they never called me to be on the show. Later, someone told me they call back just about everyone unless they don't care for the cut of your jib. Go figure...
*(Potent Potables notwithstanding- those MIT kids do drink like fishes...)

It was quite a while ago, but me too. I even did two of the mack rehearsals because they were short one person for the final panel. I don't buy that "call back just about everyone" bit. My in-person test was part of a four-day session in Boston. There were probably eight or ten tests a day, with probably eight to ten people passing at each session (eight out of about 40 in mine). That's over 250 people passing the test from one short set of tests in a single city in a single week. And they don't have more than 250 or so new contestants a year. So only a tiny percentage of people had any chance of moving on.
The thing that bummed me out was that they didn't give you any sort of certificate or something to show that you had passed the test. All you got was the Jeopardy pen used in taking the test. I still have the pen, but it stopped working a long time ago.

Short answer - Yogesh Raut is a dick.
Full disclosure: I’m a fan of the show and have been for close to 40 years, I’d love to be a contestant (and think I could be competitive), but my demographic (stale pale male) is a dime a dozen for Jeopardy so highly unlikely I ever will be. I saw all of Ken’s 74-game run, all of James Holzhauer’s run, etc., although I gave up on Amy Schneider’s run because I kept looking at that face and seeing the pointy-haired boss from Dilbert in a dress. Plus the voice creeped me out. I even watch when Mayim Bialik hosts, as terrible a host as she is (fortunately it seems the show may be putting her on the back shelf for “real” Jeopardy games; fingers crossed…).
Anyway, I watched all four of Raut’s episodes, and with the possible exception of Schneider, I think I was never so glad when a contestant got beat as I was on Raut’s last game. The little anecdotes each contestant goes through halfway through the first round? Every single one of Raut’s was bragging about how good he is at “quizzing.” The few times he ad-libbed during the games, it was always self-aggrandizing. When he got beat fair and square, he sulked and didn’t congratulate the new champ. Now he’s gone on a tirade that’s just looney. Fortunately, he only won three games, so unless the Jeopardy powers that be lose their senses, there’s no way he’ll make the Tournament of Champions, so his Jeopardy career - such as it was - should be deader than a doornail. Here’s hoping, anyway.
