Big Brother 9 running thread

Ding dong, the meathead's dead.

Is anyone still watching this?

 

Interesting stuff on hamsterwatch ... sounds like BB is finally dropping the hammer. Of course, it took Sheila threatening a lawsuit first:

Joshuah talked about attacking families tonight, which set off Sheila with "What did I ever do to you?" and she ran off to Diary in near-tears.. Joshuah then told Matt & Ryan that Sheila had promised her vote to each of them.. she came out of Diary saying Joshuah had crossed legal lines since her son's a minor, and she could be right: they called him in just after.. she also pointed out that he only goes after the women.. both Matt & Ryan sat there in the crossfire

And Adam is HOH ... wonder if his pink slip will be included in the room's special touches?

 

How anyone let's Joshuah get away with any of that crap is beyond me. There is playing the game and then there is being a scumbag. Joshuah is scumbag.

 

He gets away with it for one reason and one reason only, and we all know what that is...

 

Because he scares the shit out of the girls and the boys are all too pussified to put him in his place? Honestly, you have Ryan and Matt acting like they're macho dudes. But anyone real man would have told that friggin' psycho to shut his trap long ago. Had I been there, I would have scared him so bad when he went psycho on Amanda that he would have begged the producers to let him leave. Now that I mention it, the producers should have booted his ass. Drama is one thing, but there is a line.

 

I agree completely. It's pathetic that none of these macho men have put that asshole in his place. If anything, it would be the opposite of discriminatory -- a douchebag is a douchebag, regardless of whether he's gay or not.

Of course, Dick acted like that last season and won the whole thing, so maybe it's a solid game plan.

 

Macho guys such as Ryan and Matt are only tough when the individual in question is not in the room.

There's a big difference between confidence and bravado. I'll let you guess which one I think applies to those two fools.

 

I'm happy to hear that Arnold and Flash mostly agree. It's too bad Joshuah gives such a bad impression to those who already have a bias. He just adds fuel to the fire for those who claim homosexuality is a matter of morality. It's clear he has no morals.

I know several gay men, including the editor who taught me the ropes during my internship nine years ago, who are kind, level-headed individuals. Joshuah, though, fits into that category of hot-headed guy who appears in a bloody, drunken catfight with his boyfriend on COPS. It's in my nature to speculate, such forgive me the transgression. But I think his beer gut during the start of the season was indicative of one problem he might have. Perhaps he's an alcoholic. Withdrawal would explain some of his attitude.

 

There's not a single cast member to whom I would have hitched my bandwagon this season.

I can only hope CBS puts a little more thought into selection for the summer run.

 

Just saw the highlights of Matt's eviction. Natalie is the epitome of desperate. So sad.

 

I loved it when Natty tried to get a final hug from Matt when he was walking out the door and he just pushed her off. That girl just doesn't get it.

 

I tried to feel bad for her.

So Evel Dick drops in on Tuesday. I may have to tape it.
