I wish you wouldn't take every last word he says so personally.

The problem is that we have so little to base any judgement of them on and we are judging. One of the critiera that people have to use is their words since we have so little else. If we use Jamie's, Josh's and Curtis's words then we have to include Eddie's too. Jamie has been torn apart based on what she has said. Her rolling the dice is an example. What is fair for one should be fair for all.

Maybe people would cut Eddie some slack if the Jamie-bashers in this group had taken a moment to cut her some slack, you obviously don't get as well as you give.

It's funny, the Jamie-bashers in this group who support Eddie are so quick to defend him when they've done nothing but launch mean-spirited attacks on this woman all week. Is my comment about Eddie's tiny penis offensive? Well, the many disgusting posts about Jamie, are equally offensive. Jamie has as big a heart as Eddie, Eddie likes her and she likes Eddie, it's you people who love to hate and fictionalize every event in the house. Do you actually think Eddie would thank you for your hatred and cruelty when it comes to Jamie? I like Eddie, my comments were designed to uncover the blatant hypocrisy of the Jamie-haters as they rallied to defend Eddie, often using arguments they themselves have turned a blind eye to all week.

BTW, it was nice to see Curtisfratbro eat crow when Curtis refused to give his petty banner any credence.

Eddie would have been voted out LONG ago if he had two legs. He would have been nominated much more often if he had two legs. He probably would have been the second to be banished if he had two legs. The pity vote has kept George and Josh from nominating him and has kept Cass and Jamie from speaking their minds about his insulting behavior. He's grown up with the pity vote, that's why he acts the way he does. Oh well, he could be a lot worse than he is.

Kuh, just to set the record straight... I'm not a Jamie supporter.. but I've never made rude or hateful comments about her. I've consistently said I wish her well... I just never believed she brought very much to the show. I think I would've felt a lot differently about her if she just opened up once in awhile and stopped worrying about storylines, etc.
As for you pointing out that Eddie's supporters need a taste of their own medicine.. I've always lived by the rule that 2 wrongs never made a right and have always preferred to take the high road.

I agree that if Eddie had 2 legs he would have been voted out earlier. He sure has played it for
all it was worth..there are a lot of people who
have suffered with the big C and have lost a part
of their body who act like a normal human being
after such a terrible tragedy. I think that Eddie
should grow up, he is already 20, and act like a
man and take his garbage mouth and his attitude
and kiss them good-bye. Why wasn't he taught this
a long time ago? I know that I will probably get
slammed for my comments, but this is the way I feel. Maybe, I was brought up the wrong way!!
I don't think so.

JuJuBean, I started the "How to treat a woman...by Eddie" thread and it was a POSITIVE thread, if you'd bother reading it...

Kuh - I refuse to make a judgement call on Eddie's penis until I see yours... something tells me that his "stick" is bigger than your "stick."

I don't understand how this became a Jamie VS Eddie battle...oh yes I do, it was that clothesline incident....created by Eddie haters. You know who you are, the propaganda patrol. Well Jamie wasn't afraid to go into the storage room with him ALONE today. Could it be that she does not think he has abusive tendencies, or do you think maybe that little jab in the stomach was her way of provoking him so he would hit her and prove to the rest of the world that you were correct in your psychoanalis of him. I'll tell you one thing these threads are more entertaining than the show itself. lol lol

Donnalea, I have a gigantic magnificent penis, but it's a gift I only share with friends.

Columbus: I disagree (I won't slam you; unlike many, I think that slamming and hating have no place here). Eddie does not play for pity, that was George. I think the way he has adjusted to his tragedy is remarkable. He does not dwell on it, but does his best to live the way he would have lived anyway. He has no respect for people who do what you're accusing him of doing. Why does swearing bother everyone so much? I think Eddie swears too much (if these words are used more selectively, they have more impact) for his own good, but it certainly doesn't make me angry or offended. They're just words.

that clothesline incident....created by Eddie haters.

Huh? It was not "Eddie haters" who threatened to clothesline Jamie -- it was Eddie himself. If Eddie were not so controversial, there would be less controversy. It would be pretty dull around here, for sure, but there would be less controversy.

Websters Dictionary

Threaten--
1. to utter threats against
2. to give signs or warnings
3. to announce as intended or possible
4. indication of something impending

From that definition---to use the word 'threaten' is clearly wrong--

Judging people without proof of injury = wrong. oh you guys need to give it a rest....No one has been injured on this show. Jamie and Eddie seem to be having a great time while the rest of you who can't let it rest are getting yourselves in a dither. You are so much more entertaining than they are right now. Your points aren't valid any longer since Jamie herself got into the playing game with him.

Franny1 - You had no problem hating on Jamie all week and now you call for peace when your favorite is the subject of an attack. Typical.

He was no more the subject of an attack than she was....Are you for real...My point was that she was never hurt or upset by the joke. I have never hated on Jamie. I am happy that she is finally getting some spunk. I said I was annoyed with her for not speaking up on every issue due to her storyline theory. How do you equate that with hating? She actually has made me proud today by playing along and not being so prissy.

The leg thing hasn't effected me at all in my opinions of Eddie.I see him as a whole person,I don't feel sorry for him or extra soft towards him b/c of his leg...maybe this has effected the HG toward him,but not me personally.I just like him b/c I can see thru his rough exterior ,I think we've all watched him long enough to see what he's really about.Same with Josh,obviously Josh has a very soft heart,and seeing thru Jamies exterior has been dissappointing.

If every (sexual intercourse) time I open my (sexual intercourse) mouth, I refer to (bovine excrement)incestuous intercourse and excrement, I am showing no (sexual intercourse) respect for any (sexual intercourse) other person, and I (sexual intercourse)confuse and debase any (sexual intercourse)(bovine excrement)communication.

It's a question of character: lack of respect for other people.

It's also behavior that would offend most viewers. Eddie has the unfair advantage, that his highly objectionable behavior is censored for TV.

A person with "heart" would recognize that constant vulgarity lacks heart. Heart is about kind feelings; vulgarity is unkind.

A comment and a request for clarification...

First... Koka said Eddie would have been nominated many more times if he had two legs.. maybe I am not remembering correctly.. but Eddie has been up for banishment 4 out of 7 times.. only Curtis has been up more.. I'm not sure how Eddie could have been nominated much more... unless you assume that none of the houseguests can see beyond his disability.. which I think discredits them more than it discredits Eddie..

Second... Columbus agreed that if Eddie had 2 legs he would have been voted out long ago.. and said "He sure has played it for all it was worth.." Could you please give me some examples of how Eddie has "played up" his disability.. He is in there doing everything the other guests are doing.. involved in EVERY physical challenge..never asking to be cut some slack because of it.. If you believe that his reasons for wanting to win are "playing it up" I have to disagree..
