Firebird05 | Sunday, July 28, 2002 - 06:18 pm     When you can no longer remember if you saw it on Live Feeds, read it in LFP, read about it on the boards, talk about it in chat or you just dreamed it. You also tape it everytime, even thou you are watching it, because you know some idiot will interrupt you and you'll have to watch the whole thing over again |
Dogdoc | Sunday, July 28, 2002 - 07:00 pm     When you expect the dog to understand the words "Stop it. Big Brother is on. Can't you wait. |
Pirate | Sunday, July 28, 2002 - 07:35 pm     When string cheese becomes your snack food choice while on the Internet. |
Kennyb | Monday, July 29, 2002 - 06:09 am     I tried to nominate my wife for eviction last night! |
Thefan | Monday, July 29, 2002 - 08:34 am     This has been mentioned, but I have caught myself doing both of these: washing hands extra long and telling someone not to sing, we will get in trouble! |
Kit66 | Monday, July 29, 2002 - 09:02 am     When you start looking for the cameras in the bathroom, and fix your hair before you go to bed so that you'll look good in the night cams! |
Flyonthwall | Monday, July 29, 2002 - 09:06 am     When your time clock is set to BB time not your time and you stay up all night because something is happening in the house and go to bed when they do but your time it's like 5:30 in the morning! Also when you start using HG words in conversation and everyone looks at you weird... Truly, Clearly and wife beater t-shit, have got me in trouble already! LOL And when you talk about them like they are people in your 'real' life and give play by plays, or show screen caps to explain your feelings!!! KennyB....ROFLOL Now THAT was funny! I think my hubby would agree. |
Tabbyking | Monday, July 29, 2002 - 09:24 am     when i tell my husband i am HoH and i don't have to let him in the HoH room. when i remind my kids if they are being difficult, "i brought you into this house, and i can take you out". when i make everyone pb&j sandwiches for breakfast, lunch and dinner. |
Countrymeadow | Monday, July 29, 2002 - 10:29 am     Too much BB when...... You're watching something on TV and they begin to sing. You prepare yourself for FOTH. You forget you have dinner in the oven and it gets WELL done or becomes inedible. You eat at the computer watching BB and reading threads. |
Tabbyking | Monday, July 29, 2002 - 12:00 pm     when you put your kids in lockdown rather than a time-out. when you ask your son, gerry, to test the pool, and you don't have a pool and your son is named kyle. you are afraid to pluck your eyebrows or do a nose check in case someone is filming from the other side of the mirror. you eat way too much, every chance you can, in case the next day you get stuck on pb&j. you pour a glass of wine and think, "oh my heck. i am drinking way too much"...and then remember it really is your first glass, it was amy you saw filling and refilling. you call your home office the diary room. you remember your daughter's orthodontist appointment because it is the day they can use their veto power if they wish. you remember your son is flying to the east coast, and you hope at age 16, he can stay alone in the airport, because otherwise you won't make it home in time to watch bb, because it comes on an hour earlier on thursdays. (and why didn't expedia have THAT on their information page when you made arrangements back in february?!) you tell your spouse you are on the computer contacting your big brother, and he reminds you that although you have 4 brothers, the closest in age to you was born 4 years after you. you then modify your explanation to 'contacting one of my brothers'. this will work 4 times a day for me. for those of you who have no brothers, or just one or two, pity, pity, pity. your kids complain they are hungry, and you say, 'you just ate yesterday. or the day before. but sometime recently, i'm sure.' you find yourself saying WWJD?... and you mean josh. |
Jogging02 | Monday, July 29, 2002 - 12:13 pm     When you develop sympathy butt-pain after watching Lisa have such a tough night last night... |
Flyonthwall | Monday, July 29, 2002 - 12:33 pm     When you start to talk in *snap* Carry Old Dollars Earned *snap*about friends or family member and dont' want to mention their names because you didn't get a release on that information!! You start talkin with a sweet southurn bell accent when calling your dog Bucky..and your dog's name is Killer and he's a 200lb bullmastif! Building a canopy over your front poarch with flowers and vines, and setting up lighting and a bird bath!! |
Nathalia | Monday, July 29, 2002 - 06:33 pm     When they yell time for ab class you run and get a towel..lay it on the floor and start exercising with them as if you are part of the group. |
Fix2scream | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:06 pm     When your neighbor comes back from a weeks vacation and the first thing she asks you when she calls is what's going on and you tell her Roddy put up Amy and Mar, and Amy is leaving and Eric won the veto but he won't use it and now we're sad. When you sit down to actually watch another movie on cable and your husband says he has seen them all and you ask when and he says while you watch BB. When your husband takes calls during the shows because you cannot be bothered! How dare they anyway, don't they realize what day and time it is!!! When you are on the phone with your sister and realize she has repeated herself numerous times and you still have not responded because you were really listening to Roddy and Eric talking about Josh. When you feel real proud because you do wash your hands after using the restroom, and with soap! |
Cyn | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 03:54 pm     here's another: when you check the new messages in the discussion area before you check your own phone messages. |
Trulyscrumtious | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 04:00 pm     You worry so much about what you'll do once Big Brother is over, that you've already made arrangements to have your cousin, who lives half way across the country, start spying on her neighbors and begin e-mailing you with hourly updates. |
Draheid | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 04:13 pm     You actually ask your doctor if there's any cure.... I did that today ... jokingly of course...LOL |
Orwellsvision | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 07:28 pm     This thread was great!! Thanks for a much-needed laugh!!  |
Trulyscrumtious | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 07:51 pm     Grab your towels everyone, it's Ab Class TIMMMEEE!!! |
Cliotheleo | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:03 pm     Yep, I actually did it with them this time. I hope Dani turns out to be the winner just so I can keep having a reason to do sit ups. My cat even laid down on the floor next to me, but didn't actually sit up. I don't think he gets it. |
Zenyah | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:04 pm     You're driving around town and you could *swear* that Roddy just drove by in a blue car. Other houseguests have been spotted too. Lol. |
Cyn | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 08:06 pm     trulyscrumtious, i did and have been, too. my better half was away for a week and returned and said, "wow, you feel toned. have you been working out?" yeah, thanks to bb. |
Marcieb | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 09:51 pm     ...each trip to the grocery store, you bring a few more BB3 foods into the house. Frozen cheese-filled flour tortillas, Myoplex shakes, Subway anything, ice cream, PB&J, cream cheese & processed cheese, plastic cups, paper towels. Each meal consists of a few more BB3'isms. That's addict-shunnnnnnnnnn. |
Sia | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 10:28 pm     . . .your preschool-age children even know the names of all the houseguests--even though they're banished to their rooms to watch videos when BB is on so they won't interrupt your viewing!! |
