this is his attitude toward potentially win $500,00 dollars? money that could benefit his family? his business? - seriously?  he should be evicted immediately for that kind of attitude - does he really think that Paul will take him to final 2?  does he have zero confidence in his ability to maybe, I don't know, WIN?  meanwhile a true competitor is very likely going home tonite - this guy remains - disgusting -

I've been rooting for Cody from the start, but sadly, I think he will be leaving tonite - if that's the case, then I will support Mark - I see nothing redeemable in any of the other players and in some I see actions I would never support under any circumstance - I sincerely hope things work out for Cody - with or without Jess - the rest of them? I don't see much of anything but ignorance entitlement and a penchant for brutality - shameful really -

Most of them there this season are really making a mockery of the game, IMO.  

 

As far as Raven goes, I can't imagine that the Amazing Race would have her on after her display on BB.  I'm not doubting that she has gastro paresis, but she seems to be misrepresenting it as a terminal illness and I hope she gets called on it when she gets out and her whole family gets forced to quit playing their charade.  I know someone very well who has it.  I know all cases are different, but the person I know who has it had half of his stomach removed as a child.  He controls his symptoms with diet and medication.  He doesn't whine about it constantly and try to garner sympathy.  Most people who know him don't know he has it because, like normal people, he doesn't try to have all attention on himself every second like Raven does.  

Bingo! - and I am sorry to hear about your friend - I will keep him in my prayers - the way she is portraying that disease is an insult - and I doubt very much that American Race would have anything to do with her for health reasons alone - have you seen what they make those contestants eat sometimes?  that certainly cannot be good for this illness - and yes they are making a mockery of it -

 no worries - just please don't do that again!   

I believe that Paul, Christmas Jason and Raven are merely using BB to advance their brand and, in Raven's case shill for money - not sure if her disease is real or not but there is something off there - it is very telling that some players are content to just make jury - they get paid, they can hang out and do nothing in a beautiful home and then go back to their lives unless of course they get cast for Amazing Race - BB is a game - to win a lot of money - but you have to work for it - and this group wants no part of putting in the effort - they simply want money fame, however temporary, and easy living handed to them - entitled much?   I hope Cody can pull this out because right now the only other player who is playing for the win - is Paul - Christmas has been absolutely disgraceful - I would never giver her or her brand a moment of my time - same with Paul - as for Josh - it is entirely possible to be educated - but to also be completely unaware of how people can use you - Josh is being used by not just Paul, but by Christmas as well - he thinks he is being a cool dude with his rantings at Cody and Mark yet he  has no sense of how he is coming across - Paul knows this - counts on it - and worst of all does not care at all how badly this behavior reflects on Josh - and yes, there are probably people in his neighborhood who will be taunting him for this, and he will not see that coming - I'm not a fan of Josh's but I hate the way he is being used - Christmas and Paul cannot be gone soon enough -

agree 100%. I do not understand this whole deal with not talking to people because they are not in their group or whatever. To me that is worse than mean girls in high school. What a terrible choice to bring Paul back. He annoyed me in his season and this season is way worse. I do not understand why no one will stand up to him, if not for game reason at least for personal reasons. This season is most certainly a joke. It is so hard to watch!!

 

This is mostly on Paul but the others follow him without a second thought. He tells them to shun and isolate the ones he is setting up for eviction and they happily follow his orders. Can't believe that none of them think about who will be next to be left out in the cold. Josh said, once Cody, Elena and Mark are gone everything will be good. Doesn't he realize that they will all but two be following those three out the door?

I agree. I do not think they are really thinking this through. They can't seem to look past each week. I also think Paul is so in their face all the time that no one really has time to think for themselves. I hope someone puts him up next week. He needs to go. His voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me. A really loud nail.

agreed with all of this - I have always been a Cody supporter, but at this point everyone should be - Paul is a little dictator and his minions are an embarrassment - I also like the idea of Mark winning HOH - all it would take for Paul to get the boot is for someone - besides Cody - to stand up to Paul - but no - and what the hell is with Christmas?  she is starting to sound like Josh - calling Mark honey boo-boo - clapping her hands yelling for Cody - she is becoming this mean-spirited little witch - in what universe does she think that will help her career? I am quite sure she is on this show to promote her business - almost everyone on this season is - but so far all they are doing is hurting their brand - I hope Cody finds a way to stay, but if not, I hope Mark puts an end to Paul dictatorship and wins it all -

"Cancelled my feeds first time ever in 19 season and one season of BBOT.

This is not the Big Brother I have loved.

See y'all next season"     -

Its a little unfair to compare Dan and Cody. For one, Dan has people skills that Cody can only envy. People just don't like or trust Cody enough to give him a chance.

 

And that's the point, no one is giving them a chance. Paul had them firmly locked outside of the 'house'. They aren't blind or too stupid to see what is going on. I don't know how you could splinter the house when everyone runs to Paul and tell him everything so he can shut it down.

 

Another key difference between Dan and Cody is on Dan's season there wasn't one person with a firm grip on the house, controlling them as a bizarre multi stemmed organism like an ocotopus that can shed limbs when they are no longer functional.

completely agree -

I agree with you 100%.  But would anyone side with Cody as his social game, interactions with others, has been non existent due to romance. But I also, would love to see him survive and thrive to end of game.  Cody for the win !!!!!!!

yay!!! I want Cody for the win too!!!

OMG... After what, 10 days as a HN, she FINALLY took a shower tonight.  YUCK... Don't even want to imagine what the past 8 or so days were like for the other HG's. I have showered in much worse conditions than that, believe you me.  A cold shower?  Boo hoo, try taking a "bath" with nothing more than baby wipes... No shampoo, no conditioner and at times, (most times) no soap, lotion and yes folks, sometimes TP was considered a luxury.  

 

If I were the ALMIGHTY RULER (no offense to My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, this is just a "suppose") for a day, I would mandate that every person graduating high school in the USA would have to do a mandatory deployment in a 3rd world country (Not for our youngins' who join the military, in any capacity).  

 

I would personally love to be there after their TDY was over and they touch terra firma on US soil.  Bet you dimes to doughnuts there would be a lot of kissing the tarmac, and a HUGE number would change their "I didn't ask to be born"* or "It's owed to me" attitude...

 

Ah, if only.

 

*Don't know about you folks, but I sure as heck don't remember standing in line before my birth demanding that God grant me my assignment here on earth according to MY WILL. But, I gladly accept the course he has laid out for me, according to HIS WILL.

Thank you Sir for your service - you and all your care shall remain in my prayers - you are a Hero and ever shall be - May God Bless you and keep you always -

*steps carefully into this thread*  I'm still rooting for both of them - I'm probably in the minority in that, but they seem to be the only ones who see Paul for what he truly is - they are also, it would seem, the only two willing to go against him - Jess is smart and she refuses to take any crap from anyone but that just might be her biggest problem - as for Cody - I'm keeping his Military service separate from his time on BB - what I see is a guy who has not reacted unless a threat - perceived or not - is thrown at Jess - that makes him defensive - it could be seen as a gentleman defending his loved ones honor, or it could be viewed as a really bad move - I see it as both - I do think they need to be moving about the house more alone and together though - still hoping for them to pull through and knock Paul out - of the game NOT unconscious  - Paul is the problem in all of this - not them -

I so hope she uses it -

Dick poured a glass of iced tea on Jen's head and it wasn't an assault. At least BB is consistent in that one. My problem with all these posts is many believe Paul is a Mastermind of evil and a puppet master but not once is it stated that people should be accountable for their own damn actions. Someone said we as a society teach people to lie and cheat and I say we do more of teaching people to blame others and not be responsible for themselves. 

agreed - there is plenty of blame to go around - it starts with Paul but these fools just blindly follow along despite the fact that at least some of them know in their hearts that this type of behavior benefits no one and only hurts them - not sure about them but I was not raised to react like that - and by that I mean do something I know in my heart is wrong simply because someone told me to - weren't they?  talk about Josh's parents and what they must be feeling - what about the others?  and no I don't care how old they are - shame on the lot of them - right now I am rooting for Cody and Jess - they at this moment have more courage and honor in their pinkies than the rest of the house has in their combined bodies -

In the long run it doesn't matter. Paul, Alex, Xmas, Josh and Raven are first class a-holes. Matt, Mark, Elena, Jason and Kevin are weak and follow the majority. Cody and Jess are not innocent in this game but no one deserves the treatment they are getting. My only hope is to see some kind of justice in the house for the deplorable behavior that is being exhibited. 

Completely agree - and Elena - wanting to see Cody's dog tags? seriously?  watching the entire house blindly follow Paul's "suggestions" as to what to do is frankly, quite terrifying - yes it is a game - but if I was in any way related to ANY of Paul's minions I would be absolutely horrified by their behavior - there are many ways to win this thing that does not involve them behaving like ignorant blind sheep - at first I thought that Paul must feel threatened at his position in the game - but this? this is the reaction of someone who is too afraid to do his own dirty work and relies on ignorant followers to do it for him - never liked him - now even more so - absolutely pathetic - all of them - right now I'm rooting for Jess and Cody - big props to then both for their reactions to this deliberate targeting by people who do not even realize they are being PLAYED  

are contestants on this show even allowed to give their winnings to another player?  I thought there was some type rule about things like that...

Cujo.  First read the book then saw the movie. Totally engrossing & frightening. He certainly has a gift for the macabre.  

The Shining was my first Stephen King book - I kept hearing how scary it was and at first all I could think was this is not even a little scary - and then at some point I became terrified - stayed up and finished the book in one night because I was afraid to leave it unfinished before bed - needless to say, I did not sleep! Dead Zone and Firestarter were also 2 of my faves - I could not finish Cujo - even in the daylight....

THAT is why I can't watch scary movies anymore.  Thanks for the nightmares O' Wicked one !!!!   The last scary movie I watched (Freddie Kreuger) gave me a nightmare that a friend was coming thru the ceiling w a knife to kill me.  Will let you know how tonight goes.       

Stephen King is one of my favorite authors, but I still get nightmares from watching something as silly as Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein!  can't watch Criminal Minds at night either - *shudders* - you are not alone!!! -

so far, I am rooting for Alex - hopefully something breaks her way and she is able to advance in the game - at least she is playing the game!

Yipee!  Cody no longer controls the house!  I so loved the look on his face when tonight's eviction was announced 8-4.  Cody wanted a tie so he could be the one to evict Christmas.  He has nobody left to dominate and I love it!

Completely agree with this - for Cody it seems to be all about control, including it being him that sent Christmas out the door - not just voted out but done exclusively by him - and Jessica - what the hell woman? all I saw was a VERY jealous woman - never good gameplay - I think she's a pretty good gamer, but she is sooo focused on the other girls - Christmas and Alex in particular - that she is alienating herself and that is NOT good for her game - Paul as HOH.....yikes..........

and I was worried that something was off with Josh - at least with Josh you can see him coming a mile away - with Cody its not as obvious - I do want Paul out though....
