Talk about rude behaviour...
Missy2 | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 10:39 am     I'm sorry but I don't understand how exactly did Gerry humiliate himself? What are these people talking about? I do not understand?????? |
Teresah2000 | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 10:45 am     Well first he burps, snorts, coughs and hacks, then he babbles on and on about things nobody cares about. Not to mention not washing his hands after using the bathroom. He's not really a bad guy, just kinda on the strange side. |
Duncan | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 10:45 am     It really is that simple.....why watch BBIII if you don't like it? If you disagree with it, change the channel. There are TV shows I really do not like, and I do not watch them. There are message folders on this board I don't like, and I don't read those. Where is the point in watching a show you dislike? That said...what was this "baboon" incident Marc was just talking about? |
Carigsby | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 10:47 am     I agree that it is ridiculous to have all 4 feeds on the same two people at any given time. And, if you watch, you have every right to complain/praise/b*tch/laugh/cry over what you watch - which is exactly what I was doing. My views are no less valid than anyone else's just because they are contridctory (is that even a word?). Every person in that house has some sort of a relationship with everyother person. Be it good or bad or lovey or wishy-washy. Those relationships are what keeps us watching every week. How the interact and how the play the game (incidently "playing the game" means you have to build relationships). The intensity to which Eric and Lisa have taken their relationship is part of the game. It will change dynamics and perceptions throughout the rest of the house. I personally don't want networks deciding what I should consider tasteful or moral. There are channels that cater to kids as well as channels that cater to teens and adults - the majority of the rest are in between somewhere and it us up to us to decide what is tasteful for us and our families. |
Eden | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 10:58 am     Who said we don't like the show? We're here! We LOVE it! The point is we're paying for four feeds. Great, people who want to watch two people making out can watch Eric and Lisa. But, I'm not interested in watching that, personally I don't see what the big allure is in watching green people kissing!?!?! I want to see the OTHER folks in the house who might be talking or joking around but they were not to be found on any of the other feeds. That's my complaint. Show Eric and Lisa screwing all night long for the people who might enjoy that but have something for the rest of the people paying monthly fees to watch as well! By the way... I did turn it off! |
Teresah2000 | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 11:01 am     It is ridiculous to have all 4 feeds on the same people, I agree. But maybe at those times, that person is the most interesting to film, I mean, how interesting is it to watch Roddy and Josh sit there and play chess for a hour? Or someone take a nap on the sofa? But to get myself out of trouble, they should give them equal feed time. I'm sure there's someone out there that wants to watch someone sleep, and a chess match. |
Crazydog | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 11:04 am     I am a little surprised at how prudish people can be. The premise of the show is about watching people locked in a house with cameras everywhere. To me that pretty much assumes that if there are two people who are attracted to each other that you would potentially see the results of that attraction. The show is typically rated TV-14 and if you are disgusted by these actions or don't want your children to see it, then there are alternatives on TV. For an educated man, especially one who is responsible for educating others, to have the atrocious hygiene habits Gerry has is embarrassing. Let me see.... he goes to the bathroom and doesn't wash his hands. He showers without soap. He sits around in sweaty clothes all day. He throws said sweaty clothes in with people's clean clothes in the dryer. He washes his dirty underwear and shorts in the kitchen sink. He apparently has hemmoroids on the usual spot. He'll go and rub preparation H on that spot and then not wash his hands. He prepares food with those same hands. He coughs and hacks and snorts and sneezes while making the food and does not cover his mouth. For all of America to witness these habits is IMO pretty humiliating. Plus he's been mocked over and over for his pontificating and his MLK speech. |
Babsbunny3 | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 11:05 am     Teresah, I never intended to single you out or put words in your mouth. Apology extended... Duncan, sooooo...if a person does not "like" every single solitary second of BB, you feel they should tune out? Just curious. Personally I have no children and no worries about that. Also, I find Lisa and Eric harmless but boring. Mainly I was stating that I can SEE WHERE ALL SIDES are coming from. Just being open, folks-- Trying to accept all views and I really just jumped in because "if you don't like it don't watch" is like one of my greatest pet peeves and I find it very elementary and condescending. Instead of, "why do you watch if you don't like it?" I would say, "I disagree but I can understand your view." OR simply, "I disagree..." As a matter of fact several posters who expressed their distaste did say they were tuning out. |
Duncan | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 10:49 am     Well...vengence can be sweet. When they all get out and try to resume their lives, the thousands of people who watch the feeds, and the even greater number who read the LFPs will know just how nasty these people really can be. Maybe someone will catch Chiara on the street and ask her about her BMs! LOL |
Avrey258 | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 11:46 am     Crazydog, the problem I have is that Gerry is not the only one with bad hygiene habits. Come on, haven't we all seen other houseguests not washing their hands? Among other things that have already been mentioned. I find it amusing that there is so much emphasis being applied to cleanliness. When my husband was out in the field doing training excercises they didn't bathe for days at a time. When he came home, he reeked...so what. He took a shower and washed his clothes. He didn't die or endanger us. I would love to see these people have to go into a combat situation and survive without their anti-bacterial soaps ect.. Yes, I do like my daily shower, many times two a day, but every day we come into contact with germs. Millions of them. As a nurse please let me state that all those anti-bacterial soaps are not helping the problem. Of course it would be nice if people remembered to wash their hands, but it is not the end of the world. I hope these houseguests that are spending all their time bashing Gerry feel some shame when they get out about how cruel and immature they were. |
Bunyun | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 11:58 am     Tonight... Julie: So Lisa, America has all heard your rude comments regarding Gerry. Do you really think we would let you get away without just a little about you? Lisa: Why I don't understand WHAT you are saying Julie, Gerry is just SO gross in there. The things he does, I can't help not to notice, and we are ALL grossed out with him. Julie: Well Lisa, we have a little surprise for you, (Julie grins) America thought you should have a taste of your own medicine. So we have compiled a clip showing all the gross things America has seen YOU do. Lets roll the clip.....By the way Lisa, we will be having a similar clip for most of the other houseguests as they get evicted who have been slamming Gerry.. |
Nutsy | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 12:01 pm     LOL! Bunyun - what a GREAT idea! |
Beagle | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 12:05 pm     Oooooooo Bunyn, you have a evil idea there! I like it hehehehe.  |
Jadebutterfly | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 12:09 pm     LOL! So I'm not the only one having fantasies about BB showing the hamsters a montage of their own revolting habits. Oh if only they would... |
Jojos | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 12:45 pm     is there anyway to contact shapiro or julie about that? i think it would be just hilarious to see the rest of the houseguests confronted with clips of their own poor hygiene. danielle, who is so "grossed out" by gerry washing, yes washing with soap - isn't that what sinks are made for - is the one person who goes to take a look at chiara's gigantic crap she took a few days ago??? And by the way, wasn't chiara so delighted by the size of her bm that she also, caught up in the heat of the moment, neglected to wash her hands??? oh they, including 30 something year old danielle, are totally immature and snotty nosed brats who are picking on gerry because he's "different." they ought to all be ashamed of themselves. |
Bunyun | Thursday, August 08, 2002 - 01:13 pm     Isn't there a place on the CBS site you can suggest this? Would be GREAT TV!!! LOL! The rest of us would just crack up looking at their faces! Nothing wrong as far as I am concerned in washing something in the kitchen sink! LOL! I wash lots of things in it. A sink is a sink is a sink! We don't EAT from the sink! If they only knew the food bacteria that is in on and around a sink! Yea, would LOVE to see an episode devoted to the "good people" in that house. I am not a Gerry fan, rather a person who is sick and tired of grade school talk and actions coming from people. With that said GO GERRY!! |
