Jesse - a little humor goes a long way. Nothing wrong with getting a little nip and tuck now and then (just ask Tonya). I would say dont worry about it and keep posting. I am sure if I havent been moderated I will be but its all about having fun and a sense of humor. So Just roll with it.

Being Moderated is a right of passage. You've come a long way baby :)

Jesse, Don't worry, there are many many sites where you can say any darn thing you want to say and no one will censor or stop you. BUT this is not the place for you do to that. The vast majority of us have been here for a couple of years and we chose to participate in a moderated forum.

You have the right to say anything you want to say, but not here, this is a PRIVATE forum. I personally deeply respect and appreciate the hard work that the mods do to keep this a place where I want to come and view posts.

I think most of us who tend to get passionate about things have been moderated. Sometimes anyone can get a bit carried away. When we do, we know that the mods are there to keep us from making fools of ourselves.

It's a choice, I choose this forum and accept the rules and overall decency in this forum. If being moderated is offensive to anyone, there is no reason to stick around and get all mad. Just go to any of the hundreds of other forums where you are completely free to say anything you wish, and please come back and chat with us when you have blown off steam, and want fun and friendly conversation.

LOL C1...that's true isn't it. I had a post nuked last year and I swear I almost needed therapy from it. But I became a stronger, better poster for it :)

And for anyone questioning this forum, how much fun was it tonight with it down? ACCKKKKK. I was just short of the DT's

Jesse, you've had some great insights about some of the house guests and I've enjoyed reading them. They get diluted though when you attack a HG, call them names or go after the family members.

Your issue oriented posts have lots to say.

I couldn't believe the way Josh went around smacking people on the rear. He is rude and crude.

What made it worse for me was when he said that he knows not all of the women like it, but he doesn't care. Sigh

My concern is that basiclly sums Josh up--if someone doesn't like something, he doesn't care--even when it's not his to decide.

I think if you don't like what someone is doing to you you tell them to stop. That kind of behavior wont be tolerated. You don't laugh when he's smacking you on the butt. In Josh's mind since the Women haven't really complained about it to him he thinks they like it. And as long as he thinks they like it he will continue to smack them on the ass.

Oh, Yea, the A** Smack thing definately made an impression (pun intended) on me tonight. I cannot believe those women have so little self respect that one of them didn't smack that punk in the face. BUT SINCE WE KNOW violence, other than knives, actual or threatened, is against the rulz, I guess any woman who would have slapped his punk a** face would have been ousted. So, hay, now we have perfect sexual harassment. The punk can A** smack the women, but thats benign, right, but if one of the woman face slapped him in return, they'd be kicked out. Nice, really nice, Shapiro.

Was the smacking thing done on TV or on the Live Feeds? I must have missed it.
I think it's pretty disgusting,however and while I don't think that the women should smack him back because that's just going to escalate the violence I think that Josh needs to be sat down by ALL the women and told firmly that he either ceases the activity or that all the women will
complain in the Diary Room.Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that I wouldn't want to hit him myself, I'm just saying that doing so could result in a fight where someone could get hurt

I'm also chocked by Josh's attitude (not only the butt thing, but 99,9% of all he say or make) but I'm also disapointed by the fact no other HG tell him instead of talk about it the the DR or to other HG.

I was going to start a thread this morning about which previous hg does the current ones remind you of...starting with Josh -

I think he watched all of the shows the past two years....

Lying down in the DR: Bunky already did that!

Wearing wierd head gear: Sorry Josh - Mike did that!

Trying to act like Will - Well Will had that one covered now didn't he???

(Please let this one go through w/o any trouble! I'm new, tried to express opinons earlier, felt like invisible in one thread; was told "not the right place" a few days later; last night I got "Error proxy(?)502" since 10:40 EST right when I clicked post!!)

I just want to say I also am very disgusted by rude Josh's b_tt smacking. But I suspect the producers have more responsibilities.
The way it was shown last night(7/18), I wonder if maybe some one had complaint in the DR already. To me it feels like that, one or two HGs may have talked about their dismay to producers in DR. After DR tried to hear Josh's side, the little turt came out even ruder to justify the crud action by slapping "every" behind even harder! At this point he still thinks "This is Josh's show, Josh's game" as in the begining!
We all remember how DR will poke and prep them for better reaction/footage and some times even tell them to repeat specific things for the taping(Will said they made him say certain things overe and over again). Well, Josh is the kind who will get a swelled head after that, and mistake everything said in there as suggestions or approvals.

Not trying to start anything, but did any one drop a comment/feedback on CBS Site or is it worthless?

Okay, imagine this scenario.

Josh in the Diary Room asks BB "Would it be okay if I slap the others on their rear??"

BB: "Sure, go ahead, that should make for fun viewing...we need the viewers to hate someone and you'll do just fine..."

ta ta...

All it would take is Amy (most likely candidate) to say she is beginning to fear that Josh's ***slapping will turn into something else and that she feels harrassed. (They'll have to act on it!)

This will be the second Josh taken out of the game.....and probably in future BB's they won't have another HG named Josh!

They probably encourage him to beef up his crudeness. They need a villain and he fits the bill.

I'm sorry, but I think Josh's behind-slapping is just as bad as holding a knife to someone's throat. And I've lost a lot of respect for BB because Josh is "allowed" to continue doing it. I've also lost a lot of respect for the "women" in the BB house.

Does anyone know if ANY of the HGs said anything directly to Josh? As in "please don't do that anymore, it offends me?"

Does anyone know if BB actually said anything to Josh about his sexist behaviour?


If *I* were in that house (and you can bet that I would not be caught dead there), I would certainly not allow Josh to touch me like that. (OK, honestly, he creeps me out anyways I wouldn't want him to touch me ever, any time, any place! <grin>)

if you watched the clip where he explained his butt smacking it was earlier on in the show, as he was unshaved. some of the clips of his smacking were of a shaven josh. i think that conversation he was having might have been prompted by an early "get to know josh" question thrown out by big brother. ("do you have any habits which house guests might find annoying?")

i like it when housegusts change thier appperience on a regular basis. it makes it easoer to put things in context as far as how there were edited together.

Good question cat. I think Josh would take offense if anyone asked him to stop. He'd make it hard for that person in the house. Right now, he "appears" to have some power. He doesn't seem to have much respect for the feelings of others.

It was Justin last year that was removed (maybe you were refering to Josh from season 1 - but he was not 'removed').

I sometimes forget Justin's name too.

For time frame purposed, Josh was 'shaved' one week ago tommorow (friday)

I agree with your first and last paragragh totally, Costacat. I also am anxious to know the whole truth behind this. Is there any way to sent this whole thread to the feedback at thier homepage?


I don't think they gave any encouragement or noods to this, Josh may have mistaken the intention and the producers might have went along helping him on digging his own grave now. I don't remember who said it in the thread about 7/18 show, BB might be givivg him air time now thinking how he won't last too long.... Let's keep our fingers crossed!

Sexist behaviour? I saw him slapping both Eric's and Marc's ass last night, as well as the women's in the house. If he treats both the women AND the women to the ass-slapping, and none of them tell him, "Please stop, I don't like that, don't do it anymore," then how is this sexist? Really? I have to know.

Ass-slapping = holding a knife to someone's throat? Really? For real?

Being a women and allowing a guy to slap you on the ass = a lack of self-esteem? Really?

I think Josh is a big fan of reality shows,
and that he has probably watched them as
much as possible, in order to play the game.

He wears the rag on his head like Mike Booger,
talks like Eddie BB1, takes a leadership
like John in Survivor, and all in all tries
to be like the "Evil Doctor Will".

It doesn't work for him because he is trying
to be like too many people, and he is not
unique.

It appears that none of the women are sharing
a bed with him, even though he is trying to
be a ladies man, by getting as much feeling
up as he can get away with.

A couple of the women have been teasing and
flaunting around, (you know who I mean!)
and that encourages him, just my opinion.
