Is Roddy Making Chi NUTS?
Crossfire | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 05:25 am     Sounds reasonable. I think she needs to get re-focused on the game. Roddy is going to be her downfall, just as much as Will pulled shannon out the game last year. |
C1mag | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 05:32 am     Oregon don't you think her whole emotional state is just a bit over the top in general? She has known this man for how long? Why is she even in that house? For a date or a game where she could win some serious green? She has lost sight of everything. Her emotions are magnifide and over an issue that shouldn't even be addressed at this point. She has regressed back to the age of 16. You mentioned that it would bother you if some man kept just praising your physical appearance. I can appreciate that but these two haven't even dated yet. I personally think she is losing her mind. She looks and sounds very foolish at this point. She has lost what little self pride she had when she entered the house. Looks to me like she may have some issues. |
Oregonfire | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 05:38 am     It's all a matter of opinion, C1mag. No, I don't think she's emotionally over the top. I think she's being who she is, and that may be too intense for some people. As for self-pride, I don't think she's done anything to be ashamed of, so I don't know why that would be an issue. She doesn't sound foolish to me. |
Realitytvaddict | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 06:08 am     I don't think he has to try too hard to make her nuts. This woman took a two week relationship and made it into a lifelong committment. Obviously, she has some deep-rooted issues if she doesn't even trust her own mother? That really made me think this girl is messed up and Roddy should run. I think once she is gone he will badmouth her until she has NO self-esteem left. Also, I don't compare this at all to the relationship that Shannon and Will shared. Will would have done anything to keep her in the house. I just don't see Roddy making that sacrifice for anyone but Josh or Eric. He is clearly playing her at this point. If he ditches her now, he'll look even worse than he already does. I think he's the BIGGEST jerk in the world period. If Amy does hook up with him, I hope it's just to use him. He is probably in real life the kind of person that has self-esteem issues, but here in the house he's top dog. He loves it. People throwing compliments at him left and right. I have a feeling he just doesn't get that on a regular basis. |
Crossfire | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 06:14 am     Yes, but I was not speaking to Will's actions, just the effect he had. If Shannon had not decided to hook up with Will, she should would have done much better in the game. |
Minnyace01 | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 06:59 am     OK folks, I'm a fan of Roddy, and he was just trying to keep her trust in him only, not with the girls. Let me say that this was the first time that I could not defend what he had done. He was wrong with what he did and I wonder if he apologized to her about it in their pillow talk session later. It will be interesting to see if the dynamics of those 2 are changed after sleeping on it. |
Chelle | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 07:58 am     I like Chiara. I remember an early conversation between the two of them where he said that he was controlling and would give her a pager that was only for him. He would expect a return call in 4 minutes or less. He didn't seem to be joking. That would scare me right there. She said that she was possessive, so he knew what he was getting as well. I had the opportunity to meet Mike Boogie when I was in LA in February. He said that no one knows what it is like in the house until they are there. If people get a little nutty I think it makes sense. Touch is a very important sense. I think people latch onto each other in a place like the BB house, because it is nice to have the hugs and the cuddling in a place that can get very lonely. Chiara and Roddy are both playing the game. If anything I would love to see what she would be like with him gone rather than the other way around. Wouldn't it be nice to see what Lisa, Chiara, Danielle, and even Tonya would be like without the guys around? I can't include Amy here, because I think she would crush her best friend if it would benefit her. |
Bbfanatic | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 08:03 am     I think Rod the bod needs to give Amy a few more smooches. Chiapet would just FREAK !! |
Marameko | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 09:39 am     This is better than a soap opera....... |
Keiffer | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 09:59 am     You know that smallest of events gets magnified in that house to levels I can not comprehend. We talk about how they ahve known each other for only two weeks, and use that to justify what we see as obsesive behavior on Chiara's part. Well to start they have spent 24 hours a day together which translates into 336 hours together. If the average date lasts 4 hours that is like being on 84 dates. Not only that but this has been what you might call quality time in that they discuss things most people don't talk about until a month or two of dating. Saying all that I think they have both made mistakes when it comes to their flirting both personaly and as it relates to the game. She should not have gone off on the Amy thing because any time you raise your voice in that house you become a target just because you stand out then. He should not get upset from her talking about them kissing. If he thinks that he is fooling other HG's by itnot getting out that they kiss then he is crazy. Not only that but trying to keep the kissing on the down low just cheapenss Chia, and he should be a bit protective of that. Much like Lisa and Eric seem to be concerned for each other in that regard. |
Guinevere | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 10:17 am     Keiffer, that is a good point, about all of the hours they are spending together. I guess I just don't understand why these people don't think about how they are coming off (to the other HGs, and to the viewing public). Does Chiara realize she looks ridiculous and clingy? Maybe she just can't help herself... I just get sick of these reality shows where the girls seem incapable of acting cool at all in these situations. I was just subjected to The Real World: Chicago, and the whole Keri/Kyle/Cara mess, and it just annoys me to see another chick who doesn't seem capable of holding it together and showing some pride. |

(from the live feeds) With lines like this, what makes you think he's TRYING? LOL |
Maryk | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 10:35 am     Keiffer, I agree with your statement completely. I think they are driving each other NUTS. I don't think its a match at all. JMHO. |
Realitytvaddict | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 10:35 am     C – my biggest gripe that I have w/ amy is that she doesn’t ask one fu—in thing about me or anyone else. Okay, I just read this on yesterday's live feeds. Tell me does Chiapet do much of anything but talk about herself? See, this shows me that she really does want to get to know Amy. It's too bad she can't act like a decent human being. Later that same evening she said to Jason she would like to s*ck him off. Sorry, but I can't blame for NOT wanting to associate with her. That kind of talk is NOT for others to hear. Like I said Chiapet needs to learn when NOT to speak. Honesty can sometimes bite you in the rear. It's bad enough seeing Eric and sometimes Roddy talk like this, but to see WOMEN act that cheap makes my stomach churn. I can't see Roddy making a committment to someone like that. I think he is using her. |
Karuuna | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 10:46 am     Oh my heck, I think they're making each other nuts! Chiara pursued Roddy from the first day (from the live feed convos). Roddy truly likes Chiara, but he's clueless how his behavior hurts her. Chiara really likes Roddy, but she doesn't trust him because he just doesn't get it. And Chiara is tremendously needy; which no one, man or woman, ever finds attractive. (Ask yourself what you look for in a potential partner and then see if high clinginess, insecurity, and neediness make the list!) Bottom line, they're both incredibly insecure. Roddy compensates by trying to control other people, by being overly intellectual and trying to get all the eligible women in sight to try and fall for him. Chiara compensates bydeciding one guy is the answer to all her prayers before she has any clue who he really is; and then needing/demanding all of his attention. And then of course, while she's complaining about how Roddy flirts with Amy, she's like white on rice all over Jason. Whew - it wears me out watching them. I can't imagine how this romantic relationship could survive under those conditions out of the house. And in the house, you have all kinds of added stress. First, you can't escape from your beloved. Imagine in real life going out on a first date and moving in with each other at the end of the evening! Second, you have no access to your usual support system - you know, the friends who have been around you forever and keep you real, and sane. Third, there's the whole game thing, where the idea is to win, not necessarily have real relationships. How can you ever know who to trust and when to trust and when someone's telling to the truth and when they're playing? No wonder they're both borderline looneyheads!  |
Crossfire | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 10:58 am     It would be good for Jason to take her up on the hummer offer just to set all this straight. Then we would know more about her feelings. Would she, or wouldn't she...? |
Eliz87 | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 10:59 am     Oh my! LOL |
Draheid | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 11:06 am     Quote:Realitytvaddict Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 10:35 am Honesty can sometimes bite you in the rear.
Surely you aren't trying to suggest that Honesty = Josh?!? LOL J/K  |
Stinky1 | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 11:30 am     Please, I don't have the livefeeds. Can someone get me the recipe for Roddy's Chinuts? |
Flyonthwall | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 11:36 am     OHHHHhhh...I came over here looking, thinking maybe Roddy had a new recipie for us! Chia-Nuts! I was wondering how you would make those... Take a Chia-nut, crack it open with a doubt hammer, then smash it well with a flat putdown or if you don't have a flat putdown you can use an Implied putdown they both will work. After that swirl in a bit of AmyEvil power and then put in a hot house of mixed personality oil and "BAM" a few kisses to spice things up and Waaala! Chia-nuts! Off I go to the kitchen to mix up a batch! So glad I found you guys! This is a recipie that Ule Gibbons would love! Fly  |
Flyonthwall | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 12:09 pm     Roddy eating Chi-Nuts!

Curlyq | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 12:18 pm     Okay, I know this has been asked before, but once and for all: Are we sure Roddy doesn't really have a wife? Once again I read on the live feed posts about Roddy's wife. He tells Chiara he's not ashamed (of what he's been doing with her, I presume) and Chiara answers "What about your wife?" Maybe the live feed poster left something out, so if those who were watching could shed some light that would be great. I keep thinking about his odd behavior, hitting on every woman in the house but not wanting the viewers to see or know about him kissing Chiara. It's like he's okay with everyone knowing he's flirting with the women, but he doesn't want anyone to think he's developing an actual relationship with one of them. I could understand him not wanting the HGs to know because it makes it look like they're a Power of Two. But he's mad that the DR was told, and the houseguests don't hear the DR entries. The viewers do. I can't help but suspect he really does have a wife the producers agreed to keep quiet about, and maybe he and his wife have an understanding about harmless flirting. I know someone posted that the wife thing is just an inside joke, but is it possible it's a joke on us? |
Costacat | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 12:22 pm     Hey Curlyq... I was wondering the same thing. His bio says he's single, but I *know* I've read on the live feeds several times where there was mention of his wife... So IS he or ISN'T he? Anyone know? As to the focus of this thread... I think Chiapet is making Chiapet nuts. If she doesn't take a chill pill soon, she *is* gonna be the next to go. She's so far over the top, I'm not sure she can see the ground any more. |
Cyn | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 12:25 pm     i've heard him say this once or twice, and even played it back, to make sure, i was hearing it right. me, too, ask "what does it mean? what does it mean?" |
Minnyace01 | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 12:27 pm     As has been discussed previously on this board, this is a running joke that R & C have had with each other since very early on in the feeds. |
Cyn | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 12:32 pm     thank you... minnyace01, for not making me search around for answers. i'm an american. i want instant convenience. like the dk's say, "give me convenience or give me death." big thanks. (just sort-of joking about the convenience thing) |
Oregonfire | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 12:34 pm     I'm gonna say this real slow so everyone can understand: this latest outburst was *Roddy* losing his cool, not Chiara. So many folks seem to be pre-set on "Chiara is needy-looney" that the possibility that this was his freak-out is not an option. She has had her posessive-freak out moments, but this was not one of them. Sometimes I wonder if other people are watching the same feeds as I am. |
Curlyq | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 12:48 pm     Can anyone clue me in if there's a live feed post of when this joke began and where I can find it? Not that I don't believe it, but I still can't help but wonder if he's not really joking. It would help a lot if I could revisit the convo where the joke started so I could understand the comments he has made since then. Plus I just have a naturally investigative personality. The one time I heard him say this with my own ears was when he said he didn't want to have to leave the house because he knew when he did it would be Julie Chen and his wife running after him with a meat cleaver. In fact I was writing a live feed post at the time so I included that comment. In the past I'd assumed his "wife" referred to Chiara, but when he said that I realized he wasn't talking about her. I guess I just can't understand why else he wouldn't mind the viewers seeing him as a flirty playboy type, but freaks out at the thought of them seeing him as half of a real couple. |
Abigail1970 | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 12:49 pm     They are both driving each other nuts. It's too much time together. They can't have any alone time to sort out any of their feelings. They should have the 'let's just be friends' talk very soon before it gets ugly. Well, actually it would be fun to watch it get ugly...

Minnyace01 | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 01:01 pm     Oregonfire - unquestionably, R was dead wrong in how he handled it. He had a small point to make, but he made a mountain out of a mole hill. It does seem though that they have moved past it quite nicely. Makes you wonder what was discussed during their nightly pillow chat. |
Oregonfire | Thursday, July 25, 2002 - 01:04 pm     Haven't seen them on the LF today. I had to get some sleep and actually have some schoolwork to do. Better get crackin'! |
