He was just washing Pugita's bum and when he was done he said "I know baby, that hurt me more than it did you"......

How can anyone say Eddie is hateful...

GO EDDIE... WIN WIN WIN.. :)

Hitler was also kind to animals. And no, I'm not comparing Eddie to Hitler -- just pointing out that being an animal lover is not necessarily an indication of how someone regards fellow humans.

I think all he meant was that he wasn't enjoying it. All of the guys clean Pugita up. It is usually Curtis and Josh giving her a bath nearly every day to keep her clean because she does get very dirty.That is why they also call her Shitita.

Creamynougat: Where do you get your information that Hitler was kind to animals?

I agree with Katie. What he meant was, I know you're hating this, but I'm haitng it more.

Re: Hitler
It's been documented many times. he could've been a member of PETA. Not only was he kind to animals
but he refused to eat meat, and when commanding officers would come over, they, not surprisingly, didn't eat meat either.

So, now you know.
he's not just a genocidal facist dictator but an animal-loving genocidal facist dictator

Hmmm,Eddie? Sensitive? Eddie has a number of decent qualities, but I wouldn't include sensitivity as one of them. I won't bother listing his more obnoxious and crude behaviours and comments here. They've been documented pretty thoroughly elsewhere. What I can't decide is what part is him just trying to cultivate a tough guy persona and what part is objectionable human being.

I don't usually join in the pro/con discussions but I just had to give you my two cents on Eddies sensitivity. I cried when he stroked Brit's hair and told her that her dad was proud of her. I bawled like a baby when I read the email from his friend telling about how he'd shaved his head when she started chemo. How he came to her house the day she was released from the hospital and comforted her because he knew she was feeling scared being away from the hospital after being there such a long time. Eddie told us a long time ago that he didn't bring "Sensitive Eddie" into the house and I think he's tried hard to adhere to that. Unfortunately for him though, "Sensitive Eddie" has made an appearance in the house. I think his gut wrenching scream of "BRITTANY" when she was banished is a pretty good indication of why he didn't want "Sensitive Eddie" in the house. Dealing was going to be hard enough for 3 months and he didn't want to have to deal with those emotions on national TV.

Elisa - I instantly welled up with tears and got a lump in my throat when you brought up Eddie's "BRITTANY!"

Lord help me when we have to say bye to pug and the boys.

Some people wouldn't know sensitive if it smacked them up side the head. Eddie IS sensitive. I can't believe how many people think if you talk rough and swear you must be insensitive. Well I read comments that Ted Bundy and many other serial killers described by neighbors and friends as being quiet, kind, gentle, respectful and sensitive......SURE THEY ARE!!! Keep looking at the exterior though so you won't have to see anything.

I'm sure he is sensitive.

But he also swears constantly, is obnoxious, aggressive, and needs to grow up.

Just now on the live feeds Eddie handed Josh something to give to his niece from Eddie :) Eddie went on to say in case I am the one to go or you are I wanted your neice to have this. Anybody see what it was ?
Jamie came out and said that it was nice did Eddie make that for Josh...and Eddie with his tough guy exterior said I make nothing for Josh :) it is something for his neice.
Wonder what it was ?

He made a ring of some kind. Said his grandfather taught him how to do it.

And yes.. I agree.. Eddie is extremely sensitive. I don't think he shows that to everyone.. but when he gets close to someone as it appears he did with Britt.. it seems to shine through.

I'm not saying he doesn't annoy people.. reading this board it is obvious he does... and for some that seems to outweigh the good... but how can y'all say he isn't sensitive? Please don't overlook the good because you don't like the rest. That's as bad as people not being willing to see the good qualities in Jamie because they dislike her other qualities.

Although Curtis is my favorite, I've loved Eddie from the beginning. He IS sensitive and caring. It really showed with his relationship with Brittany. I was touched by how sweet he was to her when he saw that she was hurting. He knew she needed to be comforted and he pushed aside his tough guy image to do it. Some of my favorite BB moments include Eddie holding Britt as she cried on his shoulder. Very sweet.

I'm so happy that Eddie and Curtis are in the final three! yeah!!! :0D

Eddie showed sensitivity tonight on the feeds. He said something about monica may be pregnant now and they said that wouldn't be good and he agreed and said "she's so small." I thought he would give a typical answer about ruining his life but he was worried about her health instead. I think he is a big teddy bear inside who treats his mom and girlfriend like gold.
GO EDDIE!!

See live feeds tonite when he's encouraging Josh to throw up-and abstaining-and apologizing to Jo's family about the blue hair-and he's the young one in the house.

Eddie's normal and I feel for people that can't see past the language and Jokes that don't always come across pc.Actually I like to play poker with those kind :)

I think some of us may be confusing sensitivity and sentiment. I think Eddie has sentiment - he is fiercely loyal to his friends and family and has exhibited a number of times he can be caring and giving. Sensitivity, to me, is more about awareness - of the feelings of others (whether they are friends or family or not) and the impact your own actions are having on others. Eddie is his own man, which can be admirable, but I don't think he spends much time caring how his more obnoxious traits effect others. This is hardly sensitivity.
