CeCiMom Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 Fun thread scottish:Here's what I do:1) Ignore my children (if it's CBS showtime, or if I'm at the puter watching live feeds... lord help me that there's no serious injuries to any of them, cause they'd have scream at me to get my attention :shock: )2) I don't take calls while the show is one either.3) I obsessively talk about BB with my husband (about 2 or 3 weeks into... I keep my mouth shut before then as I don't want to eat any crow and I want to be firm in my convictions when I argue with him over it... lol) Or should I say I try... he buys earplugs eventually. He likes the show but, he'll only watch until his initial favorite person is gone and then he's only 1/2 interested.)4) I drink lots of tea to keep me awake to all hours of the night chatting at realplayer.com chat.5) I have hunchback syndrome by the end of season from living in front of the puter.I'll think of some more laterz... hahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SerenityNow Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 1. My niece and I spend a lot of time watching the feeds and chatting with other people watching. That's actually fun...get to spend more time with my niece.2. Ignore my child too...but luckily, he's at the age (16) where he wants to be ignored. (Oh...he's also at the age where I need to keep a close eye on him too..may have to rethink that one.)3. I make up excuses why I can't go to friend's houses...never admit it's because of BB. It's one of the few times when I lie (by omission).4. I can get crabbier than....let's see...morty (during well..you know :wink: )...because I never sleep.I'm sure I'll think of more later.

salter-path Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 1.Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays I have a "Do Not Call Me" rule unless you are physically injured and need immediate attention. If this is the case, I am second to be notified..after you have called 911, and please wait for a commercial break.2. Do not expect to be fed elaborate meals on these days. If P&J is good enough for TV Stars, its good enough for us.3. There are no bed partners allowed as the laptop will be on the bedtray at all times with livefeeds during the night. There is only so much room, ya know!4. I talk in terms of HOH, DR, P&J and other such abbreviations and expect all who know me to comphrehend.

CasperSabe Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I obsessively check the live feed boards for the stuff that I miss while I am forced to do things like work, and groccery shop, go to the gym to work out .. watch the feeds as much as possible in the morning while getting ready from work .. immediately check the boards when I get home .. From time to time I even post in the live feed forums myself to share the wealth with the non feed watchers .. This year though my obsessionw will no doubt know no bounds .. I am planning on investing in DSL .. so I can actually see the pictures instead of just hearing the sound on the 56k .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katydidit Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 I turn my sheets around and sleep at the foot of the bed so I can be closer to computer and late-night live feeds! Oh, did I mention that I sleep in the guest (computer) room and leave my dear hubby by himself?? Poor dear - it's the life of a monk once BigBrother time comes around. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murf Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 OK, my HUGE issue is the schedule of the live TV episodes. Tuesday...Great. Tuesdays kinda suck because they're close to Mondays (and part of that Monday feeling bleeds over).Thursday...OK, if I have to. I mean it's practically a weekend, but not completely, so I guess I can nix plans to watch Big Brother. I mean we can't expect to have total control over our addictions, can we?!?BUT Saturdays...they're killing me. I wish they'd switch the Saturday show to Sundays. I always have to make plans for after the show on Saturdays, which cancels any dinner plans in the works.OK, twist my arm...I'll just drink my dinner then! Murf aka Nicki....I'm BACK!

Guest Numfar Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 1) I tend to get up earlier (being in the Atlantic time zone means that if I get up at 6am, I can peek into the house 2am house time, which is when lots of good things happen).2) I also tend to stay up late, for the same reasons as above.3) As the result of 1 & 2, I will eventually become acclimatized to West Coast time...4) I tend to schedule work around BB watching times, which is terrible for income, but good for.. well, not much other than feeding my obsession.5) Post a LOT more to a BB board... =)6) Become truly insane over defending and or insulting the good and or insufferable HGs7) Become absolutely certain that the interns working the cameras for the live-feeds are deserving of our full support and accolades, because in spite of their inability to discern when they've got the same feed going on two or more cameras, it is always good to see special needs people getting jobs in the mainstream...

tymorty Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Along with many of the above things listed, I will add:1) Post a sign on bedroom door that states: "Unless you are bleeding or on fire, do not THINK about entering this room."2) Move all of spouse's bathroom needs to child's bathroom.3) Order groceries online, have store shop and bag them, then pick them up in the express lane. Have been known to have them delivered.4) Exhaust all restaurants that deliver. 5) Exhaust all fast food restaurants via spousal pick-up.6) Am currently in the process of procuring a wireless laptop for live feed viewing pleasure.
