“Fresh off the boat immigrant” “Fucking Korean” ?

Good job, Erika. Now I hate you, too. Is there anyone decent left on this goddamned show? Why the heck does she think it’s okay to say stuff like that? Bleh.

Doesn’t look like it. But the show would be even more boring if there were. . . .

Everyone on this show is a big wimp. I miss Will, who did things just to shake it up. He played the game how it should be played. Say one thing, do another and make it look like someone else did it. These unanimous evictions, and nobody using the veto are making things really boring.

Since they don’t really know who you’re voting for, in the early game I would vote the other person that everyone else is voting for, just to make people wonder who betrayed them and voted the other way. For example, I would have voted to get rid of Jee, then when everyone was wondering who did it, I’d try and convince them that it was Jun and she’s untrustworthy because she only does what she wants, not what the “alliance” wants. The exes make it even easier, since you can make a case for someone trying to save/get rid of their ex.

I hope Michelle gets kicked off instead. I mean really, at some point everyone is going to go up for eviction, get over it already and grow up and realize what you’ve signed up for. I’m sick of her whining and complaining.

But **c\_goat**! Michelle is the GOOD GIRL!! And she’s PRETTY! And NICE! And INNOCENT!

At least we don’t have an out-and-out slut quite like Chiara from last year this time. Unless my not paying attention to live-feed happenings is fooling me…

1/2 the reason I watch this show is T&A 😃

Good point. If they do more lettuce bikinis she can stay.

Yes, those lettuce bikinis were fun…Maybe the guys can do some too…

One thing that creeps me out is the toilet room has no wash basin, so they can’t wash their hands after using zee toilet without going into the other room.

I don’t believe the (literal) water closet ever did have a basin in years past, either. Besides, when you go in a public rest room, you have to come out of the stall to wash. What’s the difference?

I’m really getting tired of:  
a) girls shoving locks of hair behind their ears  
b) girls hauling their bikini or dress tops up to keep their boobs from falling out  
c) guys whispering together like old ladies.

And. . . after tonight’s episode, as they say, it’s a whole new ballgame! Could get interesting!

Ha ha ha, little Barbie girl went home :D.

I was also glad that Dana won HOH just because it screws with everyone’s plan to dump her next. I hope she nominates Allison and Nathan. I hate them both.

It does look like it’s finally getting interesting. Did you see the look on Jee’s face when Julie announced Michelle? That was classic “What the fuck!?”

And Dana’s HoH stint is, at least, uncertain. Will she stick with the Originals or slide to the Exes?

That was pretty much everybody, I thought.

☹ :mad: I’m not motivated to watch anymore.

Ok, maybe just a little.

Sorry I’ve been out of the loop. I just can’t get into it this season - I have tried. I turned it off half-way through last night.

I can’t get into any of these people - but now, that new show “The Restaurant” - that’s WICKED! heh heh

You can tell this season is not working. By this time last year there was three times the discussion.

There are just no over-the-top, around-the-bend personalities this year. Boring.

But Dana’s pissed off! They dropped the ball on that. I was hoping to document an “I’m pissed off!” from Dana for every episode, at least until her eviction.

LOL

</div>

I think Dana is going to go with the exes, espeically after Jee spills the beans about how they wanted him to nominate her. I would LOVE to see her put up Nathan and Jack. I have a feeling she’ll be too much of a wimp though like everyone else so far and afraid to go against the majority. She’s gotta realize that even if she sides with the originals, that she’ll be the first gone when the exes are finished.

I’m also extremely surprised that the exes never considered the possibility of the others making an alliance while they weren’t in the house yet. It seemed like the obvious course of action to me. I think they finally get it now though, with the vote being 6-2 (only Robert and Justin voted as originally planned).

Anyway, if Dana puts up two of the original 8 on Friday, then I’ll continue to watch the show. If she puts up Robert and Justin (she seems to have a plan with Jee, so I doubt he’d go up), then that’s it for me, alliances are just too boring to watch in this game.

Dana should nominate Justin. Some of the HGs seem to think he is a “strong player,” so that’s the guy who should go, right? And she should put up Allison just because she’s annoying. If one of these two isn’t on the block, I’ll be Pissed Off!

Spoilage from the live feeds if you want it.

The nominees are…

[spoiler]Allison and Jack…

The E8 was pissed but there was nothing they could do about it. From the way they’re talking they’re going to dump Allison and that’s just fine with me.

P.S. Dana says if someone gets vetoed she’ll put up Nathan.[/spoiler]

No, it’s exactly the same ballgame, but now Jee, Justin and Robert know what the rules are.

I was really torn between wanting cutie-pie Michelle to stay so I could look at her, and wanting her gone just to see the look on Jee’s and Robert’s faces when they realized they’d been played all along.

In the end, I think I’m happier the way it turned out. Hot girls are everywhere, but seeing Jee’s supreme confidence turn into abject confusion was priceless.

**c\_goat** , I know what you mean about alliances being boring. If it works out like it should, we’ve got a pretty predictable three weeks ahead. But _then_, it gets interesting, when the group that’s been together for so long begins to tear itself apart. That’s some good drama.
