I really do not get the hatred that came out of Josh last night, and has been simmering for the past few days. I get that she runs around telling half truths and gossips alot, but really, some of the stuff he said was really over the top. i am not getting it. Was there something specific she did or said to him that I missed?

Because he needs someone to hate. After she's gone his wrath will turn elsewhere, and eventually hit everyone if he is allowed to stay. I pity the house when he's nominated.

I don't get it either, Sidecar. The night Sharon came back in the house he was really going on and on about Amanda. To him she is the root of all evil in the bb house (he said that!)

It's his plan to win the game. He needed to turn his side of the house against the other and break up their alliance. He succeeded. He and Allie are very happy about it. If there is a God, these two will be on the block together and soon.

The thing about it being his plan is one thing. If that is the way he wants to play the game, at least he has a plan. It worked for Dick last year, maybe it will work for Josh this year.

However, he seems to believe that Amanda is evil personified, though she, as far as I can tell, has never done a darn thing to him. The rage that emanates from him is almost overwhelming and seems completely out of proportion to the game he is playing.

The only explanation I've heard that makes him seem the least bit logical is that he was upset that she was happy to see Sharon return, and didn't consider his feelings regarding Neil's exit when reacting to her return.

So, essentially, him complaining about her being so self-absorbed and a terrible human being is because she ignored his feelings about a guy that he knew for less than a week? How dare she not give his personal tragedy the respect it deserved????

Whatever with him.

OH - Agree totally. I don't buy his reaction to Neil leaving one bit. Especially since now he uses it as an excuse not to hang out with the others.

I thought Josh didn't like Amanda because she was bullying hgs to vote out Ryan and Allison; threatening that they would go on the block if they didn't vote her way. At least that what I read here or on another message board.

I thought that whole scene last night was awful! I've never seen anything like that on any BB! It's one thing when 1 or 2 argue/accuse/call out, but last night was over the top. I felt so bad for Amanda. All the things she was accused of doing, all of them have done. Natalie seems to be the tattler, but every season has one or more! They all talk, and discuss others. Even Dick, at his worse, was nothing like that gang-up mob-mentality scene last night, to me. I just wanted to hug her.

Wow, I saw that YouTube clip over on Perez's site and couldn't believe I missed it. Was watching Showtime After Dark and it was so boring I shut it off.
So this was all a put-on by Josh to get everyone to hate Amanda? He seemed so angry. Will have to pay more attention, I was going to stop the feeds after the 2 week trial. There were just too many crude talks and acts for me. Give me the wild confrontations that are reminiscent of the Donato Reign!

Josh seems to be an observer and listens to people. I think he had heard too many of Amanda's stories that she repeats and repeats and repeats and he had seen too much of her diva shenanigans. I wanted to slap her too! I have seen too many people like that who keep the drama stirred up just so they feel important.

i don't think it was josh's right to call out amanda in such a horrific manner, no matter the supposed reasons.
it might just be woman hatred.

I agree the things Josh said about Amanda’s father were harsh and unacceptable, but everything else needed to be said. About 90% of the drama that's going on in the house started with Amanda. Even after all the drama ended last night, instead of calling it a night, Amanda went back down stairs to stir up more trouble. I don’t feel sorry for Amanda at all. In fact, I think she got exactly what she wanted-- attention-- all eyes on Amanda.

I don't feel a bit sorry for Amanda- as soon as she came back from the DR she made it a point to go out and shove her dads picture in everyones face for a bit more sympathy then she proceeded to continue to deny any wrong doing on her part even when her own partner pointed it out to her and called her on things she has done to him--deny deny.

Joshuah did not like the bullying and the threats. And I think he was also hurt that Amanda made a huge deal when Sharon came back-Amanda acted like it was her birthday and didn't think about Neil or Joshuah.
And I'm wondering also about the "he slept with 200 people" thing she keeps talking about. I remember her telling someone that Neil was turned off by that and no I question if Josh told him about or if Amanda did.

(and no one can confirm any Gonorrhea comment Josh has made so I think Amanda made that up last night in her anger)

I dont see her trash talking as any worse than anyone elses in there. She gets caught alot, which is her worst crime. I never saw her bully anyone. And well, he has people calling her w***e? Where did that come from? Uh, what about Natalie...hello?

Josh's anger was, in my opinion, completely staged and was strategy. It was also incredibly cruel. I guess he wants to win the game the Evel Dick way.

strange. I must not have hit a button.

Part two of the Fight youtubes show Josh and Alison just killing themselves laughin in the house.

Completely staged and Strategy is exactly what it was.

With only four votes this week and a remaining six teams next week, the name of this game is Keep the Focus on Someone else- demonize someone else- make them a bigger target than you.

I agree that Josh is none too happy with a returned HG partner. This makes him automatically an easy target

IMHO

I don't think it was staged, but Allison clearly is gleeful when someone else is targetted or hurt, even though she flung the opposite around to Jen endlessly last night.

She is still using "soulmate" to refer to Jen's boyfriend.

He just hates her! Even when later she apologized to him and told him she forgives him his outburst, he shrugged and I found that even more insulting, the fact that he couldn't give a crap about her trying to be friendly and laughing about that she's going to everyone to apologize.
Really I never expected Dick to be a saint but from this guy I didn't expect this much insensitivity.

I'm thinking he must not like himself much because Amanda isn't the only person in that house he hates. He hates Parker and I'm sure there are others.

I thought it was a bit overboard myself and I don't like Amanda at all and have liked Josh... but it may work.

It puts Amanda in the crosshairs next week, and there are potentially other teams vulnerable as well. Leaving Josh and Sharon to make it to at least the final 4 before they have to do anything else.

I think Josh made Amanda this year's heroine and BB will do everything they can to keep her now.

I think he only has a problem with Amanda because his precious Allison does not like her. I don't think Allison really likes anyone on the show. Just look at how she constantly talks about Jen...
