Point: Nothing Good Ever Happens When Zender, Hoffman Find Themselves Together
Calling the decision to reunite the two polar opposites a 'recipe for disaster,' trip organizer Bryan Leslie told reporters that he knows nothing good ever happens when Daniel Zender and Sam Hoffman find themselves in the same house.
'I’m just saying, one is a rigidly introverted conservative, and the other is a holier-than-thou, loudmouth liberal — how in god’s name is this going to end well?' said Leslie, adding that while the two men graduated from the same educational institution, the similarities end there, and the last thing the trip needs is for him to do something stupid, like put them together.
'Look, maybe one day Z and Sam will end up being friends, but right now, they seem to have some really bad blood. All I can hope for is when they finally hash things out, they aren’t drunk around a fire or in tight quarters at the San Dune. Hopefully, cooler heads will prevail.'
Leslie added that he assumed everyone had learned their lesson on the beach last year; give Zender and Hoffman plenty of breathing room.

Counterpoint: Pairing Up Zender, Hoffman Would Actually Be Pretty Funny
Positively salivating at the decision to reunite the two polar opposites, trip organizer Bryan Leslie reportedly licked his lips as he contemplated placing Daniel Zender and Sam Hoffman under the same roof.
Noting that he matches 99 percent of pairings by compatibility, Leslie admitted that every once in a while he gets a kick out of pairing up housemates, crabbing boats, and golf teams who will absolutely [expletive] despise one another.
‘The Z and Sam matchup is a dream come true,’ said Leslie, rubbing his hands together with gleeful anticipation.
'Most of the time, I look at sociability, political beliefs, and partying habits to find the most suitable matches, but every so often I let myself have a little fun by pairing people together who will make each other’s every moment a living nightmare,' said Leslie, adding that he can’t help chuckling to himself whenever he imagines the mismatched Hoffman and Zender realizing within 10 minutes that they want to kill each other.
'Look, I want the vast majority of the group to have a relaxed, enjoyable time, so I place them with others who have similar preferences and tendencies. However, from time to time I’ll go ahead and throw together a powder keg, sit back, and enjoy the show. Zender and Hoffman should be a real treat.'
