Nerves frayed for sure. Doesn't mean that's why he's acting like this. He's acted like this from day 2!

I missed Jen being told to go to bed...stayed up sooo late for LNC meeting and Jen kept staying in the HoH room and wouldn't go. Then left and came back in. I finally nodded off when it was closer to sunup than middle of the night.

I'm a little tired of the animosity. This is not fun to talk about over and over and over. While I wish it was Dick that would go, right now I would be okay with it being Jen, too, just to see if the atmosphere changes. I don't like to read about the crap that gets thrown around. Ugh.

I want Zach to win HOH because I think EVERY single person in that house would be PARANOID. If Jen/Kail win it's a total given who they will put up and that's boring.

Jen, please agree to disagree. I will never agree with your point of view. In fact, I'm embracing the opposite view.

quote:Im not saying Dick is right, But I think some of us are being a little insensitive to ppl inthis world who really know what real abuse is
I don't think "real abuse" is any one fixed thing. Dick has verbally abused Jen on numerous occasions; he himself has referred to it as "verbal abuse". Is dumping tea over someone's head physically abusive? I think it is. I don't equate it to slugging them in the face, but I also don't equate slugging someone in the face to slitting their throat. It's not any one thing. I think there are two ideas that get conflated in these discussions: "Dick is an ass" and "Dick should get thrown out of the house". I think both are true, but I haven't ever advocated him being kicked out for the verbal abuse; I've just called it was it is, verbal abuse, and said I think he's an ass and disgusting (to some people it seems to be garden-variety intimidation; but I have never in my life heard someone say anything close to some of the stuff he's said to Jen). I think he should've been thrown out for the tea. I have no idea what the golf club business is about; I'm at work now (at least in theory!) and can't watch the feeds, and the discussion has been too confusing to really follow. But I do think Dick is verbally abusive and potentially physically abusive. As SFJF has pointed out, such behavior typically escalates - in relationships where one partner is abusive, he often starts out with verbal abuse and then moves on to physical abuse. So I don't see it as out of the realm of possibility, at all.

and Ecoop...the convo I saw Dick have about no one else cleaning came AFTER she went off on Kail. She asked if she was wrong and he backed her up. It is so amazing how we are all watching the same thing and how differently we all honestly see it!!! No wonder cops have hard times with witnesses at scenes lol

They said repeatedly, why is she still up, go to bed, etc. Not to her, but about her.

I agree, Hermi! So you get bellinis, too! Which is why I asked what was going on since there are several other "get Dick out he's a bad man" thread. I popped in here to find out what's going on and instead get told to shut up. Or rather, that I'm not being "consistent". WTH?

If Jen goes and Kail's not there, Amber will be Dick's new target. Anyone who thinks Dick is only like this because of Jen, doesn't get Dick. He MUST have someone to bash. Even his daughter told him to close his eyes this morning, because every time he sees someone, he must talk.

Hey, Costa...I want bellinis, too. I hope that a DOR actually does happen. We've discussed the possiblity for eight seasons and I'd like to see how it goes down, for once. That and a penalty nom.

If Kail or Jen got HOH Dick & Danielle would go up and if one came off then Amber probably

Scoots... you get LOTS and LOTS of bellinis. A whole pitcher, just for yourself! Although, be careful. You might wanna hurl if you drink the whole thing and then sit and watch a blue vortex!

oh and Cricket...IMHO Eric accepted the job as being OUR player. Where did we agree to help him do what he wants? He agreed to do what WE want, but he isn't doing it!!!! I seriously feel they need to give him a big talking to and either have him do what he agreed to or toss him out! No one made him take the AP role. But if he agreed he should do it. Why should I feel guilty for not doing what he wants me to do, when it's his job to do what I/we vote?!!!!!

? - at what point is it verbal abuse vs. game play? we already know he plays on ppl's weakness... so is it game or verbal abuse and what about the other HG that sit around and do nothing --- did they do nothing cause they thought it was game? or do nothing thinking it was verbal abuse?
