I so hope to see Danielle leave this week just to see the look on Dicks face.

Unfortunately option #3 is the only one that might actually work to stop him from continuing his constant abuse, but the fact of the matter is that the other HGs just can't bring themselves to stoop to Dick's cruel, hateful, abusive level.

The unfortunate situation is that Dick could only be stopped by people who are as cruel and vindictive as Dick himself. Since these people aren't, no matter how much people want to claim that they are, their only option is avoidance.

Me TOO!!!! Then he could spend the rest of his life explaining how he ruined his kid's gameplay. hehehe

Would that not put a pin in his bubble? Or a cork in his glass?

Honestly I dont see how Dani can stop her father. Only BB has slowed him down a bit. He will be a wild one to deal with in sequester.

We're just telling it like it is. Dick should admire that.

I hope Dick takes Dani off the block (he confirmed he would) and just quietly let himself be evicted. That would take the wind out of the sails of the other hgs. What would they do without Dick to complain about?

I am sure that we could play back some of Eric's, Amber's and Dustin's converstions as well as others and we will hear them insulting and demeaning other HG's.."

Nothing they have said comes close to Dick's hateful abuse and we ALL know it.

Eric, Amber, and Dustin weren't screaming at anyone to use drano on their genitals or saying they wanted to violently sodomize another HG anally "until they bleed".

Dick somehow comes up with the sickest, most perverse things to say that are the most cruel and hateful things I've ever heard a person utter. His obsessive ranting is filled with extremely violent undertones that defy rational explanation. Dick actually enjoys verbally beating down women to make them cry. None of the other HG's remarks have even come close to that.

I can't imagine that there's anyone that can't see the difference between insults and the extremely violent sexual fantasies that Dick spews forth with his eyes filled with rage.

It is unequivocally false that "He has not said anything that no one else has said".

I'm sorry, but I feel that all of ED's comments are intended to throw the other's off their game and he really couldn't care one way or the other about what he is saying. He's just throwing everything and anything he can think of, regardless how vile, in order to throw the others off balance and get them to vote him out over his daughter, get himself more tv time, or whatever rationale he has for it.
When Dustin told Amber that he calls his dog N-word B-word, he was telling the truth about something he does outside the house. To me, that is worse.
When Amber went on her anti-Semitic rant, she was speaking from the heart. To me, that is worse.
When Eric and Dustin were talking about ED knocking up his own daughter in the sequester house, they weren't saying it to ED and Dani to upset them, they were saying it ABOUT them behind their backs like cowards. To me, that is worse.
I do not condone many of the truly heinous things ED has said, but I honestly don't think he truly means most of it. He's just trying to advance his own cause be it more tv time, throw the others off their game, get them to vote for him over his daughter, or whatever it may be. I may be wrong, but I truly don't think he gives 2 chits about the other HGs at all, and that allows him to say the things that he does without any remorse. That is a pretty sociopathic behavior, but I believe it is his means to an end, not truth from his heart.

Darc I agree. I can't think of anything ED has said that didn't have an equivilant coming out of one of the 5's mouth.

Sorry, I meant to type that I think Vincent will beat his cross eyes straight, not that I hope that he will.
My bad.
But, it might make Vincent feel better.
Ya never know.
That is his little sister and his father that Eric is talking about.
I know I'd be POd beyond belief.

I would be PO'd too, Darclyte....but I could never bring myself to actually stoop to Dick's level of cruelty in retaliation.

How do you think Jen's friends and family should react to Dick's desire for her to douche with Drain-o or that he would like to anally ____ Jen until she bleeds?

Sanfran ... obviously they should be angry and horrified. I can't think of anyone on this board who would really think otherwise. Same goes for the stuff that Eric has been saying. It goes both directions, IMO.

So then, all of the men in Jen, Jameka and Kail's lives should be out for blood with Dick after all of the nasty things that he has said to and about them. Why is what ever Dick says forgiven (I don't think that he means it), but whatever Eric says is just vile and he must mean what he's saying. I don't understand the reasoning there.

What ED has said is not forgiven.
I believe it's part of his strategy and he doesn't actually mean any of it.
That doesn't make it right, it only makes it "different."
However, he is saying it to their faces, not behind their backs.
He also, to my knowledge, has never suggested any of them would be having sex with a relative and produce a child.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel that what Eric is saying is (a) worse, and (b) cowardly
ED knows exactly the consequences of what he's saying, and is ready to accept them.
Eric is hiding from the consequences of what he's saying.
There is a difference in behavior and rationale...however "fine" that line may be.

I think both Dick and Eric mean the nasty things they've said. I think they are both gross.

What, you just described the actions of abused spouses. They think if they just do not provoke the abuser, he will stop, but it never does.

Justin and Eric just made a blunder. They should have said Jen would put up two of them because that is what the girls think she will do. And it will make them suspicious.

I don't think Darc said what Dick is saying right and forgivable. But that people bash Dick and stick up for the 5 when they they say the same types of hateful things- is just completely strange.

BTW- when Dick was bashing Jen a few weeks ago I don't remember anyone batting an eyelash in the house but now that he is doing it to them they all of sudden have issues.

The other HGs seemed to like it when he was bashing Jen and Kail because it furthered their game, but kept the heat off of them. They may not have enjoyed what he said, but they also seemed to not mind it too much. Except maybe Jameka.

Eric apologized to Jen, telling her that he never really understood the effect of the abuse she received from Dick until he (Eric) was nominated and targeted by Dick in the same abusive way.

It's like when you go through something really tragic and someone says "I know how you feel". NO, they DON'T know how you feel....not unless they have gone through the exact same thing can they truly know how you feel.

I have an issue with Dick's bullying tactics, Amber's anti-semitic comments, Dustin's off the wall comments and Eric's incest comments. I have issues with them all. And I'm sorry, it may be "game" to some people, but to me, this is the way these people are outside the house, not just inside. You can't put that much "game" on. It's not going to happen because there is reality in every bit of vileness that spews from these HGs.

Frankly, they just make watching BB8 the pits sometimes. I never heard such rancid stuff watching these shows. But it's like a train wreck or car wreck, you just gotta watch it happen.

Ignoring a bully is the best thing. Just turn and walk away. Let 'em keep at it. Doesn't make anyone a coward just makes an a** out of the person spewing the hate.

From what I saw- Eric appologized to Jen for one reason,he knew he was in trouble and had to be nice and win sympathy. If he was truly a good person (and the same for the rest) they would have stepped up way back when. If Dick is going to be bashed then they all should be bashed.

Actually, people DID bat an eyelash. People actually talked to them. Jameka tried to have a discussion about it with Dick and pointed out how it was wrong. One of the things that Dick holds against Eric is that Eric went in and talked to the producers after the tea dumping incident. SO the hyperbole that no one cared is not quite accurate.

As for the talking behind the back, lots of things are posted on this message board every day that are questionable. We are essentially talking behind these people's backs. Would you really go up to Eric if you saw him walking down the street and start saying all the things that you have posted about him? More than likely, no, because you realize that civilized people do not just dump anger and hatred over people.

Or maybe that's just me. I know if I ever meet Dick on the street, I'm not going to tell him all the things I've said about him, so it would be hypocritical of me to complain about houseguests doing so. But I also know that I have never, nor will I ever, get in someone's face and threaten to rape them, so I have no problem complaining about Dick's behavior being out of line.

They do have Zach pegged at least as far as he has shown. I keep hoping there is more thare and that he has just been playing the game, but I really don't think so.
