Big Brother 2010

I don't know why people like Ben. He's funny, sure, but I think he totally plays the victim card. He's a total butthead. I really dislike him.

I like him because he's one of the only interesting people in the house. I mean, if I had to choose to spend an hour in conversation with Ben or Corin ... well, I know which I'd choose.

I also like Ben.  I've never seen him play the victim card...but I have missed a few episodes along the way.  He's not my favorite or anything but I'd like to see him stick around for awhile. 

Caiomhe has REALLY started to aggravate me.  I think she says a lot of things just to start arguments.  Then she doesn't even listen to the other person and just storms off in the middle of everything.  I know some people find that entertaining so maybe it will keep her around for awhile but personally that grates my nerves (mostly because it reminds me of people I know who are like that and I definitely wouldn't want to be stuck in a house with them).  I'm hoping she's gone next.

John James and Josie are both starting to aggravate me also.  I think they're both overly-dramatic about their whole "situation".  I thought it was hilarious when they both got upset about Ben saying that John James followed her around like a dog.  Josie is turning out to not be what I thought she was...and I liked what I thought of her better than the her she's turning into.

The whole Steve/Keeley thing is just weird to me.  I obviously missed something that happened along the way because I just find the whole thing eerie...it actually makes me feel uncomfortable when I watch it.  And then Rachel said something about it so I'm obviously not the only one who felt weird about it...I dunno...just weird.

I'm not sure who my favorite is this week...maybe Andrew because he's never even kissed a girl and I just can't help but want to squeeze his cheeks.

Totally agree about Steve and Keeley. [shudder]

I also like Ben.  I've never seen him play the victim card...

He's always asking the other HMs why are they picking on him so much. He dishes it out but he doesn't like to take it.

Plus he lies. Like when the TOT gave him a task to arm wrestle and he told all the other HM that he was supposed to steal. And when he discussed nominations and the water got turned off because of him he wanted BB to not tell the other HM that it was his fault so he wouldn't get in trouble with them. He's lazy and not a team player. I just think that I would really dislike him in real life.

Yikes!  I was cringing for Josie when she spoke her mind about her jealousy, but it's so fricking cute the way John James is reacting.   

Way to go Ben for picking fun Ben commandments.  I truly did not expect him to be so thoughtful.     

John is being so coy...Oh its brother/sister thing umm no its not - I am up late and watch the live stuff <loser I know> and they are both act the saem towards each other.

Ben and Rachel?  Rachel seems a bit loud and forgive me the "blonde" of the group now.

I did enjoy Ben's commandments - I think they are showing him as a nice guy after teh negative stuff because in the live late stuff he is still the same no matter if they show him nice.  He talks about people alot.

My MIL says I wish John and Josie would just have a good snog already and I seem to agree but if you remember shabby said oh yeah it will hapepn but not in the house ;-)

What happened on Saturday night's episode? I missed it. Was there some big drunken blow-up? Did something happen with Caiomhe and John James? What are Josie and Steve talking about with the whole "swimming in the same ocean" business?

Spoiler: show

Keeva <sp> is gone

WOW I was told to watch little brother big brother and WOW...
I am now gonan have the watch and skim the LIVE 5 hours stuff I tape overnight <loser alert> ;-)

It was 1pm today if that helps any.  Not sure why but I don't care because I wanted her gone next anyway.  Personally I think they are both just whimps who were scared of being voted off and thought they should just leave to "save face" before that.  It really pisses me off that people do stuff like that when they were chosen to be in the house...there were hundreds (maybe even thousands...can't remember) of other people who wanted to be in the house and would have stayed until the end!

I missed Saturday and the whole Caiomhe letting lose with her flirt, but the thing that gets me about the situation is this...

If the women of the house would have left Josie alone about the whole JJ thing, she never would have become such a cow.  They forced her to reveal her feelings and then it was dismissed as insignificant.  Yea, she has become like a broken record.  She used to be strong and dynamic but now she appears weak and it's not pretty. 

But if they would have left her alone, like she wanted, she'd be in a better place.  You can't strip someone bare and then complain about the aftermath.   I don't think it makes her bad - that her ugly true self has been revealed.  Who wouldn't take the defensive stance when forced to show their cards?

I don't think it's turned her into a cow. But she is getting a bit monotonous with the constant obsessing over the John-James thing. I do agree that it's all because of the others ganging up and making such a big deal over it. They should have just left it alone.

Does anyone else think that Andrew has some massively repressed anger issues?

Definitely...he gets upset right quick but he is still likeable (so far)
Not to sure about the new Jo but JJ seems a fun addition.
I can't wait to see how the picnic date turns out.  I was happy when John James told Josie he loved her awwww and when he came out in the red football shirt when the new peeps joined.
I am starting to like Dave more and more but Ben still bugs me and Mario is getting uptight very quickly too now!

I am trying to figure out the last air date of this as I think I will be gone ;-/

Spoiler: show

As punishment for discussion nominations Dave has been put up for Eviction and has lost the ability to nominate this week.

My husband has noticed that I've been a bit down this week and to try to cheer me up he bought the live stream of BB for me...the rest of the series was only £7.99 and we're hoping that it also covers the Ultimate Big Brother after this part of it ends.

ETA:

I'm thinking that it will be the last week of August since this part of the series is set for 11 weeks and this is week 7.
