I don't think Jen was ever a good game player myself (the POV threat for one), and sometimes she acted snooty. And I'm not justifying some of her actions (the cig thing was a little overboard).. Jen will be fine after she leaves, I know that. but Thursday afternoons should be a cease-fire time...Let whoever is going, no matter who it is, enjoy the last couple of hours of this experience that few people are fortunate enough to get. And when Jen leaves,I sincerely hope the other HG's are at least respectful, and don't try something that will embarrass her. Let her walk out of the house with her head held high.

Wilson I have heard Eric say several times that they should clap...the last time he said they should clap and say "class act"... I do hope they don't do that. No one deserves that kind of exit.

It's like talking in circles, we say Jen is to be admired for her self-control and the others say Dick is to be admired for his ill treatment of Jen. Let's agree to disagree.

Does anyone see any Will Kirby influence on Jen. Snobby, obnoxious, I don't need the money.. sans the loveable smiling Will Kirby humor and straitforward approach to saying I'm probably lying? Chilltown is composed of more than just Boogie --- just sayin.

See, this is really where I differ from so many. Just because Dick did action X,Y, and Z has not made me forget this girl has been unbelievably vain, cried and sobbed over her own picture to the point I was really in disbelief, took her own mother's picture off the wall, shunned someone simply because of their looks, tried to intimidate others and it didn't work. My opinion of her didn't change just because Dick likes to scream at her. It just solidifies to me that when you live w/ someone you don't like to this extent then everything they do is going to be amplified a thousand times. I am sorry, but I myself can see that if I were the one living w/ her I probably would have called her every name but her own. She came in there thinking and w/ the egotistical attitude that she had been "trained" by ChillTown and thinking she could use those tatics. However, she lacks CT's ability to play off each other, it did take two of them for it to work. She lacks any ability at all to personally connect with someone. How Kail was able to even do it I feel was just simply the bonding factor over isolation from Dick's dislike. She has shown time and time again to other's how vain she is by bragging over and over again about her "life" when in fact she is nothing more than a hired hand just like those gardners she won't talk to. Then you add the "jensa" style shirts etc that have played on everyone's nerves. I don't think the HG's are as upset about the Dick/Jen arguement over cigs and clothes but Jen's fragrant thumbing of BB's rules when it was HER own choice to be on slop to win that POV. Yes, the others could also choose to not eat the slop etc etc... but it's the old saying, if someone jumps off a bridge do you jump too? I think Jen wanted a "revolt" and for Jam to eat also. I still saw all of her actions preceding the eating as very very pre-mediated. She poured over that rule book in every shape, form and fashion. Today even she has gone on and on saying she thinks CBS/BB is going to find a way to keep her. She really believes this in some part of her as I do think she thinks she can use the same strong-arm tactics that Will used to get Boogie on All-Stars. Do at times I feel sorry for her when Dick is yelling at her, maybe. However, she also has continued to provoke him in every way possible by following him around, seating herself right at him etc. Even that night after the arguement, she planted her rear end squarely between him and Jam. She has also continued to sleep in that round room w/ him when there are tons of other beds now open. These are not the actions of someone who is just "poor me." I have always said that Jen had some brains to her. I just do not think she has common sense or the ability to execute the plans she has.

The truth is I don't care if people like Dick or not, I don't, but those who do I do not judge them, that is their right as it is my right not to like him. It is just that I don't respect men who talk like that to women, I don't care what their reason is, I just don't enjoy it, and is not something that I would do.

I say let them do as they like. They are showing themselves for who they are not who Jen is. She'll walk out of there with less to answer for than any of them. Their days are coming soon. Incest. Death threats. Sexual violence. Anti-Semitic rhetoric. Hate for New Yorkers. Anti-Asian stereotypes. Cheating on boyfriend on national TV. Disrespecting one's child. Good luck to all of them when they leave.

No one has yet listed the types of behaviour Jen displayed that would warrant her being the target of a group of bullies. There can't be any way that the bullies could convince me that their actions are some kind of 'strategy'... I am waiting to hear something other than the fact that she was turned off by an aging rocker has-been.

I really don't remember reading any post that said Dick should be admired for his ill treatment of Jen. I like Dick despite some of his behavior not because of them. I see a person with a good heart underneath the language and outbursts. I don't see that with Jen. I do see Dicks behavior had game play- except when it comes to Jen. But even then he has control, he went two weeks without attacking her because he promised her he would. He does keep his word. Jen on the other hand was going to get him evicted the first chance she could- she never had any intention of keeping her word.

Bubba...may I ask? Do you, therefore, include Eric, Zach and Dustin? They are really not much different than Dick.

I started liking Jen a little bit because I felt bad about the Dick stuff. Honestly though, if he was not in the picture I would not like this girl one bit. They are right when they say she comes off so vacant. Just void of emotion.

Tresbien. ITA I'm a Jen fan too. I find no offense in others pointing out her flaws. What I find offensive to is that this season's show seems to be playing to the base elements of our society. I often find myself in tears at the degradation of society and it's apparent acceptance by the masses.

I don't think Dick took a break from attacking Jen because he's such a good guy; he did it because the DR had enough of it and told him to stop. He never would have given her clothes back had they not said he had to.

Kale, the reason he stopped harassing Jen it was because he needed to be in good terms with her to stay in the house. As soon as he was saved he started again.

Can anyone tell me (or has anyone found out) what Jameka's breakdown was over last night? I read that she had one, but nobody ever said what happened to cause it. Slop? Pressure of being on the block? In the frenzy of Jenzy, Jameka's crying jag got overlooked..or I missed it (which is also entirely possible).

Suz...I think it was a combination of things for Jameka. I think the slop was getting to her pretty badly. Shortly before the breakdown, she had to leave the house as the smell of food was too much for her to take. Also, she realized that Amber had made a deal which didn't include her at all, that Jessica may not be the beloved friend she had hoped she would be. She prayed for mercy for all of them, and mercy on herself.

Not sure Suz, it was impossible to understand what she was saying when she was praying it could have been the slop, the deal Amber made without her, Dick and Daniele going at it, the fear that jen would be right and be saved. no idea what was wrong.

Awww....bless her heart. Let's hope somebody else goes on the block this week..I'm not sure she could take it again. Just the slop would probably be enough for me to just DOR or DQR or Get the Heck Outta there.

This is the second time I heard of this Amber/Daniele deal. Dick was going at Daniele about it and then now someone is saying Jameka knows of it. Who told them??? I know when Amber was scared of being kicked out she swore on her daughter she would do anything Daniele wanted her to do to stay in.
