Ricmunoz | Saturday, September 09, 2000 - 02:16 am  From Stevev43: "When people come by my cubicle and wonder what those voices are (I usually minimize the picture...by this time we all recognize the voices....who needs pics?) I just say I'm listening to a TALK SHOW on the RADIO!!!!!" I doubt anyone will agree with me, but I am STILL laughing at this tidbit...so hard that my eyes are actually burning. The imagery of it all: If it were me (I don't have Internet access at work), I'd have the live feeds on from 8 a.m. when I arrive until 5 p.m. when I leave. I just keep picturing Steve's co-workers asking, "Is that talk show on every day, ALL day??" Steve: "Uhh, yeah, so what? You gotta problem with that?" Thanks again, Steve, for providing one of the biggest laughs I've experienced yet while reading the hundreds of messages at BBFC. |
Charlotteindigo | Saturday, September 09, 2000 - 10:50 am  Do you feel now like you really "know" the houseguests? Like they're now friends of yours (or at least family members, some you like and some you don't like)? Won't it be strange to NOT be following their daily lives in 3 more weeks? Will there be some kind of strange withdrawal as you quickly file missing persons' reports because your "family members" have disappeared and you don't know what time Curtis took his shower this morning? Is anybody planning to set up a fansite and approach the HGs about giving us periodic updates on what happens to them? Or am I insane and will this all dissipate around October 2nd? |
Katie | Saturday, September 09, 2000 - 12:04 pm  We will go into withdrawal when they are gone! |
Ocean_Islands | Saturday, September 09, 2000 - 04:50 pm  What will happen to us if they walk out? |
Enbwife | Saturday, September 09, 2000 - 08:12 pm  I'm so addicted to BBFC, I'm completely unsettled with the news that the group may walk on Wednesday. I'm totally unprepared for BB to be over in 4 days. NOOOOOO - someone DO something! I feel anxious, yet excited, but scared all at the same time. It's terrible - do I need a life or what? |
Shipwreck | Saturday, September 09, 2000 - 08:54 pm  good news, there is a self help group for you guys. unfortunately, you have to log on to http://www.bigbrotherfanclub.com to join. lol |
Enbwife | Sunday, September 10, 2000 - 06:37 pm  LOL shipwreck - that doesn't help me much I breathed a big sigh of relief today when I got home from a long day away from my computer, logged onto the BBFC and realized that the walkout plan looks to have fallen apart. Thank God! I now have my 3 weeks again to prepare myself for no more BB. Hopefully the BBFC will continue, even without the show. I love you all - well... most of you  |
Enbwife | Monday, September 11, 2000 - 05:15 am  Oh no! Now I'm on the BBFC BEFORE I go to work... This has never happened to me before! What am I going to do? It's only Monday.... urggghhhhhhhh |
Gail | Monday, September 11, 2000 - 05:48 am  It's 11:30 pm . . . you have to get up at 4:30 am . . you are falling asleep in your chair but you can't resist the urge . . just one more time . . you click . . New Msgs just to see what is going and find something interesting to read. It's midnight . . . You start closing down all your Internet Explorer windows and are down to the last BBFC screen open. Your mouse hovers over the File close . . . and you think, one last check .. . you click on New msgs. . . .  |
Ocean_Islands | Monday, September 11, 2000 - 05:50 am  The mistake is turning on the computer in the first place! I've been caught in that trap every single time. |
Moonkissed | Monday, September 11, 2000 - 06:03 am  Glad to see its just not me. Misery loves company they say. Why dont we brick the door so they can never leave. Welcome to the hotel Big brother. Im going to miss them. |
Ryn | Monday, September 11, 2000 - 06:27 am  Since I was really hoping they would walk..... am I an addict???? or not? Since I am going to stay at work a bit late to watch the broadband feed and "hope" to see the banner... does that? |
Webtvlurker | Monday, September 11, 2000 - 06:46 am  I had to stay up until 3:00AM EASTERN last night just so I could read all about Curtis trip to the Emmys, now its 9:40AM and I'm awake and logged on again, somebody help me!!! BTW, thanks to all the live feed posters, I only have Webtv and can't access the live feeds directly so I have to rely on you posters, much appriciated! |
Dancer1966 | Monday, September 11, 2000 - 04:50 pm  It is reassuring to know I am not the only crazy addicted person out here! I don't know anyone who watches the show. Not even the Survivor fans I know watch it. I sometimes can't even believe I watch it! LOL! But, really, it's the online reporting and bulletin boards that make it so entertaining. Thanks to everyone who does the live feed reporting -- that is SO helpful and entertaining! I think I will go through a slight withdrawl period when the show is over. I did when Survivor ended. I did when Hal Sparks left Talk Soup. Thankfully the fall TV series will be starting so I can pour my extra energy into that. How pathetic is this? Actually I do have other things to do and I still do them, I just make sure I have the VCR set each night for Big Brother! I'll never tell a soul..... |
Kokomo | Monday, September 11, 2000 - 09:42 pm  ok, one step further...not only do I feel like I know the houseguest, I feel like I know you guys! Just tonight starting thinking how much I'll miss "talking" to you when it's over, as Jamie says...it's weird. |
Avalonsparks | Monday, September 11, 2000 - 11:53 pm  Oh Koko....you are so sweet, I just you! Room 101 - thanks for the tip, I have been wondering how to do that for so long. Mucho Gracias! Sparky - No, but I've had two friends with the last name Sparks. I always liked it. |
Enbwife | Tuesday, September 12, 2000 - 06:57 pm  I agree Kokomo. That's why we all have to keep coming back here after the show ends, until the next reality TV show starts. It'll be cool - trust me...Please don't go...what would I do without you guys? Man, I need a life bad! |
Gail | Wednesday, September 13, 2000 - 05:22 am  Yep, I am addicted . . . got this in my email last night. Hi Gail, Was wondering why I hadn't heard from you for so long. Love, Mom (my mom would never understand this addiction)
|
Flint | Wednesday, September 13, 2000 - 05:39 am  Heh, Well, I started passing the addiction on. I got my mom to watch an episode last night, and she liked it.  |
Psuedome | Wednesday, September 13, 2000 - 05:58 am  I've got my whole family into it, not as obsessed as I of course. We all watch the show together if we are home, and discuss. My family rarely does things together. The conversations the show has started have been incredible. It has become our 'family time' which has been non-existent for years. As I said they are not obsessed like me so 2 or three times a day I have to update everyone on what is REALLY going on, and what is rumored to be coming up. This show has been a good thing for us, I hope it does the same for other families that have become distant in recent years. |
Khristyp | Wednesday, September 13, 2000 - 05:58 am  I passed on my addiction to one of my co-workers. We can't watch during the day but we sure do sign on an awful lot to get the live feed updates!!!! I don't think I would have been able to work the past 9 weeks if not for BBFC!!!! |
Ocean_Islands | Wednesday, September 13, 2000 - 08:26 am  Any solutions to this addiction or do I have to wait another two weeks and go cold turkey? |
Midwestern | Wednesday, September 13, 2000 - 09:33 am  This addiction has replaced smoking (I quit 3 weeks ago). I've been reading this board for several weeks, but just posted for the first time today. I was so proud they showed Curtis at the Emmys on E! Isn't that silly? I'm afraid we'll never see the BB folks again after the week the show ends! Will they continue to speak in that stupid accent that has grown on me? Will Jamie show up on The Young and the Restless as an extra? Will I see George at 3 a.m. pitching the George Foreman grill ("We're both named George...I think dat's really cool")? Will Brit do a Clairol "Nice and Easy" commercial when she loses her virginity? Will Eddie only get half the money for a Reebok deal? Will Josh find a smart, athletically built, non-smoking, SWF 21-25, who he doesn't have to talk up to or down to for friendship and possibly more? Will Curtis and Cassandra return my calls? When I first quit smoking, I had bad headaches, sleepless nights and even got the sweats a few times. Will it be that bad when BB ends? Oh, the horror! |
