lol Cynny was busy typing my ITA post..and how funny with the % key...that took me about 6 tries the other day! And my lights were on hehe.

I had to mute it...Sheila agreed to keep Nat? Bet she will be ordering the guys to vote the same lol.

WOOHOO turned sound back on when I read this...just LOVED Nat's comment about not being able to look herself in the mirror. Especially since it's the truth!

And Sharon's crying?? Prolly for sympathy...I dislike her more than Sheila, for many reasons. I so want HG I like and can root for versus those that repulse me...is that too dang much to ask??

OH one more thing...I think AG should burst into flames too for the editing of Nat. I can't believe what they have and haven't shown this year. The folks I watched on the feeds are nothing like the ones I've seen on TV. The entire thing makes me want to shower!

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. Kind of restores my faith in people a little bit. I've been the victim of bullying. I remember being a kid and being called "cripple" and "gimpy limpy" because I had polio. I remember sobbing and looking around and seeing other kids laughing. This hits a nerve so deep in me you can't even imagine. I was beginning to think the world was going "somewhere" in a handbasket. It's nice to know not everyone finds the viciousness entertaining. :-)

I'm truly not trying to criticize anyone's right to their opinion. As I've said before, I'm having a hard time being objective about any of this. The only reason I am still watching is so silly. There is this part of me that feels like, as long as Natalie is still there, it kind of feels like having her back in some way, like I'm one of the kids I wish would have stuck around to stick up for me.

Glittarae, sorry I totally DISAGREE. The things Dick said to Zach were to be hostile and distract him during a comp. Did I like it..nope. But to me this is FAR worse, because Sheila is saying and doing things that will deeply hurt Nat when she leaves this house. And Zach and Dick weren't in an alliance together. One hadn't fought to help the other, as Nat legitimately did for those stabbing her in the back. So to me it is a very different scenario.

And I will repeat one last time...where is it written that a game has to be played with lies, betrayal, cruelty, backstabbing etc?? Yes it's a game...but that doesn't make these things alright in my eyes!

Yes, what we are watching is a game, but these things also happen in real life. Pick people off to get to the top. Critisize someone trying to to do the right thing because if you don't people might see that you are not doing the right thing. Keep the spotlight somewhere else, regarless of how small the other person's errors are.

We can sit back and call it a game all we want, but people suck up to people all the time to get ahead and they are rarely truthfull.

The truthfull ones get burned.

Cynny...Do you think Natalie had no idea after watching other seasons that there was a possibility of bullying in the BB house? And I have seen or heard NO viciousness from Sheila, just repetative nonsence. Did you think Dick was vicious last year/

I've gotten to the top of several pofessional situations, but I have NEVER broke people and hurt people the way these ones do... Just look at the age and this is the future of america... They are going to be taking care of your parents and you... Can you imagine what America is going to be like with people like this in controll... Imagine the hurt and it being ok to lie, Truth means nothing.

To bad James isn't there to call out all the sub alliances. Then it wouldn't be all on Natalie. The boyz have been very lucky that there sub alliances have not come into the light. Very lucky.
Truth is they all have side deals and back up plans. They are all lying to cover up their side deals and back up plans. They are all betraying each other to hide thier side deals and back up plans.
And, they have ll played a good game. Used all the resources.

They think Adam will win against Sheila. I'm not so sure. After the last 2 hours, I think Sheila could make the jury believe anything.

I don't think it's true that this kind of behaviour should be expected just because it is a game. How sad for all of us if that is true. I believe we all should expect others to treat us with a human level of respect, even when playing a game and be disappointed when they don't.

I always wonder how people respond to people who behave this way "in the game" when they get back out into their real lives. If I knew Sheila or Sharon in real life, it would be hard for me to trust them on a personal level after seeing what they are capable of.

And, Ollie, thank you for answering me earlier about why Sharon was laughing. It took me awhile to respond, but I appreciated you answering my question.

Lurk..It is in the BB rules...every season...lol

I know Glitter. They all sign weavers or contracts stating they understand they or for all I know, members of their families may be ridiculed (Robert BB6). It should not be a shock to any one of them at this point.

It is not written anywhere that the game has to be played with lies and betrayal but what is the last BB (other than 1) where it was not ? This is not real life and most of BB people have ended up friends and even laugh about what went on in the house and how they treated each other. Many are very good friends and end up living together. To be able to even do BB you need a thick skin. I don't think anyone will be overly devastated by what they hear. They will get over it and move on. Even Natalie.

Glittarae, I was busy typing and just now saw your question. I do think absolutely that Natalie knew that this was something that could happen in the game. That doesn't make it all right. And the fact that it is her own team doing it to her makes it even worse.

I have seen every season. I thought some of the things Dick said last season were indeed vicious. He attacked people at a very personal level, their family, their religion. I thought the same way then that I do now. I just didn't have the courage to post then.

I am not trying to argue with anyone. I'm really not. I just am not one that believes that this is something anyone should have to endure just because they decided to play a game.

This game is a pressure cooker of behavior and emotions. It is what happens is real life, it just happens faster in the BB house.

Take time and think about the past, reflect. It has happened to many of us.

Ok, does anyone know what is going on? Is Sheila now on Nats side? It seems Adam is on Sharon's side.

Tamalina, you made such a great point. I have also had a lot of successes in my life and have never had to lie or break people to accomplish anything. What would be the value of any accomplishment that came at the expense of my own self-respect? I couldn't enjoy anything I achieved knowing I had to truly hurt someone else at such a personal level to achieve it.

I wish I knew Fivel. I would like to believe that Sheila has been listening to what Natalie has been saying about remaining loyal to their team to the final four. It's hard to believe it, but I would like to.

Cynny,

I have decided I really don't care who wins anymore. Everyone turns on everyone. Now it looks like Adam may have had Sharon's back the whole time. I think he told Sharon that he told Jacob he would look out for her. I could be wrong though. My head is spinning from these people :-)

I am not trying to fight either...I just think that they go into that house knowing there can and WILL be attacks on themselves and their families...always happens and always will. It is the way of the game...not really AG's fault and it IS her job to manipulate!...so on that note I'm going to make you all happy and go to bed!..lol
