It`s strange, the things you notice as you get older
at times I feel like someone`s looking over my shoulder
I catch myself looking one way and then the other
I can feel eyes on me is it ICQ, or YOU, big brother

I like Big Bro. It's kinda addictive. Sometime I think it's rigged but who knows.

RE: Big Brother
I am the ultimate 'reality' TV junkie. Why do these idiots always vote off the good looking babes? So what if Shannon was a skeezer? She was a good looking skeezer! They kept Will?? I've been singing the thong song during the opening credits.

I actually liked Survivor but the rest of them bore me. All the people on theses shows are just so fake and transparent to me.

RE: Big Brother
I agree with bacpac about kicking off Shannon. She was the hottest babe in the house.
I don't think I can stand to watch Will primp in the mirror for another week.

RE: Big Brother
I like Survivor. And the good thing about Real World is that you don't have to be a regular TV watcher. Just get up some random Saturday morning and watch the show for 8 hours.

BTW, Mike on the Real World gets a bum rap.

Yes Sir !!
I love this show. I try to get in an hour before nodding off. Last night I was able to hang in there until 3am. Danielle is smoking hot and so cool! I hope she puts up Jen. And if Amber crys one more time.....sheesh...

Yep Danielle is HOH...she beat out Kail....in dramatic fashion!

Did you guys see the discussion about the banner?

***************
spoiler alert
***************

the banner (flown overhead) said something about Eric and Amber being liers. Bottom line - the houseguests put 2 and 2 together and many are suspecting Eric has been messing with them - even his sweetie Jessica is onto him. Dick, Danielle and Jes were going to discuss it last night (after the Showtime hours).

LOL - me too ductape. It is fascinating though at times if you really watch it. It reminds me of this place sometimes. I won't go into detail here my thoughts, but suffice it to say it is a very interesting controlled experiment.

Just read a transcript from today. I'll tell you what - Dick is such a drama queen. He's pretty much wrong about everything he presumes, and then he makes a big deal about it yelling obscenities all over the place as if that makes his (incorrect) point more valid. It's tough to speculate how things will go this week. People were siding with Dick until he went around throwing a hissy fit, now people are remembering how much of a prick he is and they're starting to listen to "reason", and listen to Eric's point of view. He doesn't get that his group-think mentality leads him astray from reality, so he ends up looking like a dick (pun) in the end. He's shooting himself in the foot - At least he admits to that, it's about the only thing he's got right in the house yet.

I'd like to see Eric go. And when he leaves, i'm hoping they (CBS) spring the "twist" as he exits the door. Otherwise, I don't get the point in keeping that under lock and key to the end. What would be the point? I would think it gives the game a "reset" in a way...

stratus - Do you get the Shotime feed? The only reason I think they shouldn't tell the houseguests is b/c it is really causing a ton of conspiracy theories. It's much more entertaining. It would definitely "reset" the game!!

Sarge...i've been watching Sho BB AD when I can stay awake for it...but I do have to say its hard to watch because they whisper alot and you don't have the aid of subtitles/captioning. Also, its odd because you don't have that goofy music as a backtrack playing either...

Yeah - luckily my wife is usually 2 floors up and I can crank the volume - but you hear that hisssssing sound when they're whispering. She won't watch it though because of the F! - F! - F! - F! - F! - F! - F! - F!

Unfortunately for me, i'm in the bedroom watching whilst my wife is sleeping so I can't turn the volume up....not good...

I don't blame her....ED likes to use the F!- F! - F! word all the time.....like after every other word....

Man, Eric dodged a bullet this week. Hope he can repair his image and keep on going.

ED has become like some of the provocateurs here; he's cute at first cause he stirs everything up and it's a cool train wreck but soon everyone sees them for the self centered out of touch losers they are.
Nigal

Yes, Eric rawked! I loved the look on ED's face.

Oh, and do you think people don't see your B.S. Nigal? I can assure you they do. Not only do you not back up your lies, nor do you accept an offer to hear the other side of a story, as you take hearsay and lies you created as fact, then you go around and talk s*** about me and pretend like you're not because you don't have the balls. You should have called me, instead you are acting EXACTLY like ED and the "provocateurs" you're pretending to despise. Don't think so? Read your last sentence and tell me that fits the description of the character-ridden man you told me you are in one of your past emails.
Sarge

Nigal, the fact is that you didn't have a problem with me until I started asking for the "provocateurs" to stop and quit playing that game. The train-wrecker cartoon character you enjoyed watching was now just a regular person and you felt hurt that he was gone. The fact is if I was still coming back like a Mack truck, you'd be happy. Time to turn off the Saturday morning cartoons dude. I've said my peace.

oy vey....I was totally angry that Eric wasn't kicked out of the BB house tonight. What are those morons thinking? Kail had no more power, she couldn't partake in tne next 5 HOH competitions and had given up half the pot, not that she really needs the dough anyhow. But again we all need $250k to slop around. Right? I was positive after seeing Amber rip Eric out that those 4 idiots would get the hint. But no, this whacked out chick Amber has to do some silly arse swearing mumbo jumbo. Give a break. And that Dustin dude.....man I thought ED was gonna slap this dude upside his noggin.

BTW....we noticed something tonight...and maybe its just coincidence but it seems that whoever is being evicted, is sitting on the left.....

Oh man oh man.....what a night!

Jameka and Dick just finished Holy War I...sheesh....I don't know where to begin. I'm speechless. It was ugly. And then big ole tough guy Dustin is outback afterwards pumping his fists like a little sissy. This is getting bad.....
stratusloop

Yeah they just started the holy war as the show was ending. Jameka's voice was changing to ghetto like, "Oh no hee dit'unt!". I said, "Oh Dick better just shut up now cause she's about 3 seconds from taking her shoe off!". I look for Dick's ranting and raving to continue non stop until everyone gets tired of it. Eric's betrayals will be long forgotten.

I liked when they showed some of the famous people Dick has been name dropping about...Guns and Roses? LA Guns? Maybe famous 20 years ago.

I was upset they didn't show Kail the deal with Eric. She's not being sequestered (sp), so why not? They also didn't show a "good-bye" from him, so that was strange also.
Sarge

If Eric was smart, he could get out of the Amber thing, at least to some extent. Why? Because when he told Ed he knew "the secret", it was in the 1st week, 4-5 weeks before Amber actually told Eric what "the secret" was. She just happened to reveal it to him a week before Ed brought it up to frame Eric. If he'd get the timeline down, Amber would likely forgive him. Their relationship had obviously changed in the 5 weeks. Also, this wasn't brought up yet, but Eric specifically said about 5 times in a row that he WOULD NOT actually tell "the secret". He said that right to Ed, but Ed ignored that and twisted the fact. All Eric said was "he could if he wanted to", but he was very definitive that he wouldn't. I doubt Eric will remember the events enough to straighten that out with her though. It's amazing how people can state facts, and leave out 1 or 2 details, and it totally changes the context.

Shotime showed that Jess is definitely planning on putting up Ed and Danielle.

Ya'll see the war going on between ED, Jameka and Amber in the kitchen last night after the show on CBS? It was mostly ED vs Jameka and it was ugly. Real ugly. ED was cooking and Jameka and Amber were sitting at the table. Why they didn't just get up and walk away, I haven't clue. She (Jameka) really just kept repeating stupid stuff over and over. Ed even dug down deep and threw out the "C" word at Jameka and she claims she doesn't know what one is....beyond that it was a train wreck. ED dug himself a massive hole and I feel sorry for Danielle. Then after the war in the kitchen, Jameka and Amber go outside and hang with Eric and Dustin. What a bunch of wimps they are. Eric wouldn't shut his bloody mouth up....talkin' trash like "I stayed out here because if I went in there, I would of went nuts on him (ED)"...yeah right.....like hold me back....then he goes and says "I bet if we go inside, we'll see him (ED) f-ing his daughter". After that comment, I had just about enough and at 330am drafted and submitted a complaint to CBS....

Stratus - give Eric a break. The "holding back" and t e Ed/Danielle love thing were both other people's suggestions.

ED dug himself a massive hole and I feel sorry for Danielle.

I don't. She not only encoyraged Ed, she gave him suggestions/requests of who to intimidate.

all this was on Sho feeds.
