I am tired of Marcellas always cutting down Gerry. I don't know if it is a ploy or it is for real, but he is always doing it. Gerry gets enough from everyone else, he doesn't need Mar's help. What do you think? Is it part of the game or is Marc going to lose Gerry's support?

Let me clarify by saying part of the game, I meant to convince the others he is not with Gerry.

Marcellas..is too emotional and he holds his emotions on his sleeve..I think he is a bit hard on Gerry..it is quite harsh..Gerry doesn't know what Marcie really thinks of him..but Im sure he will be deeply hurt if he found out

Geeeeez, don't DO that! I thought from this thread that there was an anti-Marcellas movement.

I think Marcellas is, and has been for quite some time, not too impressed with Gerry. This is his chance to not only "play the game", but to get out some true feelings, and show off the integrity he so desperately wants to get back in the game.

I like Gerry well enough but the guy does come up to Marc every time he can without fail. And if I have to hear Gerry say something about Shakspeare one more time I'm gunna scream. At least Roddy has a wider assortment of useles knowledge to share.

I think he would be hurt, too. Marcellas does seem to wake up grumpy. But not being a good morning person either, I can sympathize. Combine that with Gerry's tendency to want to be in a person's face and I can see how Marci would be irritated. I feel sorry for Gerry being so alone, but can see how he'd grate on the nerves as much as Josh does.

I find it depressing .... They seem to be acting like a bunch of snotty high school kids picking on the unpopular one. It's one thing to dislike someone but these people are downright mean! Roddy was talking about all Gerry's "so what" stories - I guess he's never listened to himself ...

Fie on you What! Fie, fie, fie!
I adore Marcie. His reaction to duck ball last week was absolutely priceless. What would we do for comic relief without him?

I love him too. Marcie has the sharpest wit in the house. I bet he'd be a great writer, a la David Sedaris. I loved the story about when he worked at TGIF (worst job stories) and he got let go for not having enough "flare." Too funny!

All he does is B*tch and Whine or cut down Gerry. Gerry tried to do him a favor regardless of how it was done and Marcellas has done nothing but call him bad names for it.

What gets to me is that they keep complaining
that he is always there and always talking to them, where do they expect him to go, and who is
he supposed to talk to? I'm not a Gerry fan, but
I don't think I would treat anyone the way they
treat Gerry.

Toolhound & All, IMHO, part of the trouble that Marcellas is having is the feeling of indebtedness toward Gerry because Gerry took him off the block. Marcellas has said several times that he thought he might not have been voted out if he had been left on the block and therefore he resents having to feel that he owes Gerry something. JMO - FWIW

I think Marcellas just doesn't like him, and the fact that he feels beholden to him for saving his butt just makes it even harder. I know Marcellas has said in the past that he doesn't think he would've lost to Lori anyway so the veto didn't matter. But he should realize that if these people really weren't going to vote him out they wouldn't still be so furious with Gerry for using the veto. He should also realize that if Gerry's clinging to him it's only because saving Marcellas' butt cost him the chance to make other friends. He needs to keep that in mind when he's talking trash about him.

I like Marcellas but his attitude toward Gerry is one of the few things about him I don't like.

I agree Tippet where is the poor guy going to go! lol I guess I was just wondering if Marc is doing this because he really doesn't like Gerry (if that is the case we get the point already) or if he is trying to convince the others of this.

Marc seems to still be buckling under the weight of being Gerry's lone lifeline in the house. I thought it would ease up a bit this week, since in theory most in the house would make an effort to be nice to Gerry, but apparently it's not been the case. Nonetheless, I think Marc feels he's completed his sentence of indentured gratitude and is ready to be done with it. He was talking earlier about addressing Gerry directly on his irritating conversational habits. I hope he does - it shows a bit more respect than simply running around speaking badly of him behind his back. Frankly, I think they all should listen more to Jason when he reminds them they should consider Gerry's family before broadcasting their thoughts over the internet.

I can only hope that they ALL get the same treatment when they are Gerrys age. I am tired of the Brat Pack mentality in the house. You would have to be a saint if your over 40 in the BB house and still they would need someone to bully. Gerry is everyones target because he is not a part of either group. I like Marcie's wit but I hate meaness in every one especially when they bully one person.
Where would Marcie be if not for Gerry. Like it or not. Marcie is acting like a spoiled brat lately.

I think the problem Marcellas has with Gerry is very clear and very sad. Remember, every single person in that original 6-person alliance came around and said "GERRY is the one who named you first, GERRY wanted you out. You'll see when you watch the tapes, it was all GERRY GERRY GERRY". Over and over and over and over again. A smart but sick man once noted that if you repeat a lie often enough people will believe it's the truth.

Marcellas simply believes that Gerry was ridding himself of guilt by vetoing him and could turn around and put him back up on the block in a second.

I love Marcy. I think if every time I showed my face someone latched onto me I would get real tired of it as well. I don't care who it is.
Gerry seems like a nice enough guy.

Marc also has annoying conversational habits. Although he is funny, he is also a self-centered loud mouth. He should have listened to his own little speech when doing nominations about how they should play the game.

Roddy is annoying.
Chiara is annoying.
Marc is annoying.
Lisa is annoying.
Eric is annoying.
Danielle is annoying.
Josh is annoying.
Gerry is annoying.

So everyone gang up on Gerry for being annoying.

Marcellas is very ungrateful and unkind.

Foodbunny, I think you have hit the nail on the head.
Marcellas even brought up the subject again a few days ago, and the others again said it was Gerry in the hottub who initiated everything at the beginning.
M said it was Lori who told him about it, but he doesn't know that it was Josh and the Four who actually put his name out first.
It's a shame really, that this lie is so solid, because it might help the relationship if Marcellas knew the truth.

But to go back to Marcellas's personality-I have to admit that I find him endearing, because he's just like ME!
I'm a terrible grouch until I've had several cups of tea and fags in the morning, and have an Irish temper the rest of the time.
My sense of humour has also been described as 'acerbic', but at least the person who said so, liked it!
My maternal grandma was the same, so I guess it's in my blood, LOL!
I still feel that Grannygrunt stole my moniker!!!!!
BUT-I'm not mean, I just tend to see the funny side of everything, and a big mouth which says so!

Foodbunny: I may be wrong, but I believe it's been clarified to Marcellas that Gerry was NOT the instigator in the original 6 setting. That Josh had 'tossed' Marcellas' name and then let everyone else run with it.

draheid, has it? 'cause i thought that dani also believes that gerry was the one who originally wanted to vote out marcellas. who told them that it wasn't gerry?? and when??
