I agree completely with Keiffer. Tonya is no saint, true. But all of you despise her as well. The way they are talking about Tonya behind her back is just as despicable as the way others talk about Gerry. But everyone jumps to defend Gerry and joins in to bash Tonya. Just sayin'.

I was really liking Marcellas, but the return of Amy is not good for him game-wise. The two of them may be entertaining but they really do bring out the worst in each other. It's sad to me that Marc doesn't like Tonya but hadn't said anything about her for the last two weeks. As soon as Miss Amy comes back it's like the floodgates holding back all the mean vindictive comments burst. Neither of them have any hope of getting to the finals but in the event they do you can be assured Tonya will not be voting for them.

JMO here: I think the 'Show' was truly entertaining. It is sad that it was directed at a KNOWN individual, I bet if it were more 'generic' (ie. wasn't related to a former houseguest) it would have still been very entertaining. We all probably know or have known (or at least heard of) people that could fit into the target 'group' and could have just put our own <target name> in and still had a great laugh.

JMO - FWIW

Like it or not, Keiffer has a point with his remark that "Their comments seem funny because they are directed towards a person that you do not like." What an eye-opening observation. I could totally see some of my own double-standard behavior when I read that... I laugh at the digs at Chiara and cringe at the digs at Gerry. What is the dif? Humor? I think not. Both are essentially mean-spirited in nature. Shame on me. Eep.

I liked Tonya very much... but come now!
That song is HILARIOUS!!! also loved the quote from Woofy "The Tonya story is a Country & Western song waiting to be sung."

Tonya did set herself up, and the points about humor are valid. Chihora and Roddy are just too damned serious, say what you want right or wrong...It is funny, and I laughed so hard, nothing to do with Tonya, they are just clever and funny, and I for one do not see them putting others down any more than they put themselves down. CHihora, Roddy, and Tonya were HORRIBLE to Amy and Marcel, if my memory is correct prior to them getty catty back. Good for them! For Laughing instead of getting angry.

Throwing in my inevitable two cents: Tonya at every turn has(even during her exile with the PB&J comment)lives and breathes one-ups-manship. She really isn't due any undue sympathy. Tonya will take care of Tonya, random babies, absent fathers and probable future internet live sex shows notwithstanding.

The reason why we "all" hate Tonya is that Tonya gave nothing to like. All Tonya presented was sex talk, bitter divorces, a $5000 cat, and implants.
As for Amy and Marcellas ripping on her, she started that ball rolling by the way she treated them. She was especially rotten to Amy.
Even Chia had a moment where you could like her. When she organized that group hug for Amy after the big fight with Marcellas, I thought there might be hope for her. Of course, that was short-lived. My "white-trash" mindset may just be missing Chia's goodness.
In my own opinion, none of the HGs turned me off quite like Tonya. I never saw anything to like. Even on her second-chance video, she took the low road. As usual.
So, yes, I too laughed along with A&M. Laughed alot. It was damn funny!

I laughed so hard last night during the "show"..especially when Amy stated that they were probably still at the FOTH.. I didn't laugh because it was Tonya..I would have laughed if it was some random person that wasn't related to the show..Amy &Marc have told serveral stories about people in their real lives that were equally funny..they just crack me up..but then again..I like going and watching stand up comics..and Amy would be a great one..the way she delivers a story just gets me laughing..

I like all the backstabbing and gossip. I like Amy and Marcellas making fun of Tonya and I like Chia freaking out and being mean to Amy.

It's a show and this year AS decided to include us, the internet viewers, by "arranging" for conflict between the houseguests. He has made the live feeds far more interesting, keeping some of us glued to our PCs until way past bed time.

The Show has it all. Conflict, Sex, Drugs, Phobias, and even sweet moments, love and friendship. All designed to keep us entertained, and keep AS living in luxury. I hope he enjoys it all, because I certainly enjoy the show.

It's all just a bunch of insecure, wannabe actors and acresses pushing and shoving for their "face" time. I love it all.

If we love some more than others, that's bonus. Let the game continue!!

Jhezzie, I still fail to understand why most people here think it is so OK for the houseguests to bash Tonya but the same people get all in a tizzy whenever they do the same to Gerry. As Keiffer and Hermione have pointed out, it is indeed a double standard.

It all depends on who you like. Your argument is that all of the things they say about Tonya - her divorces, drug problems, etc. - are true. But the things they have said about Gerry re his hygiene are ALSO true. We have seen it.

If it's not OK to rip one person apart behind his back, it shouldn't be OK to rip another. It may be your opinion that Tonya gave us nothing to like. But I happened to like her a whole lot more than Gerry. I was willing to put up with her stories and materialistic attitude. Her attractions are obvious and moreover, she liked to have fun. When Amy and Marc start doing their "show" again, but this time target Gerry, let's see how funny everyone thinks it is.

OK, I'm moving on.

Amy did sing a song about Gerry's feet ... LMAO

You have a point. I certainly get ripped to shreds anytime I say anything negative about Gerry and am called a Gerry basher. It seems that the prevalent feeling on this board is don't say anything negative about Gerry true or not. He is held up as a wonderful person who withstands hell in that house. Like I said, they all signed up for it and he is fair game too.

I am waiting for Amy and Marc's song tonight. Maybe it will be about Lisa and I will laugh at that one too even though she is my favorite.

I personally find it funny when they trash anyone because *they* are funny.

I don't find it funny when someone trashes another by calling her a f'ing c*nt, saying they want to rip her larynx out and that they should just pull a knife out on her. Nope, not funny, but that's just me. Wasn't funny when Justin did it, ain't funny now that Chiara's doing it.

Crazydog..no one said what they were doing was "Okay"..personally I dont' like it when people rip anyone apart.. but damned..if you are going to rip someone apart..at least do it with humor and not with malice!

I have mixed feelings about these two. Am afraid that I laugh at some of the remarks and if not careful my own sense of humour can run to the sarcastic. In fact one of my oneliners made the best list on this board, somewhat to my chagrin because it was a little mean-spirited ; on the otherhand , there has to be a balance. I think the houseguests got onto this theme the other night - about whether humour can be in fact cruelty. The truly funny people in my opininon are really the ones who look at the absurdity of life and realize that they are as absurd as the rest - those who can make fun of themselves to me are the funny people - the Jack Benny's , Rodney Dangerfield , especially in his early days - the "no respect " schtick. If you only find humour in trashing others you are saying something , somewhat sad , I think about yourself.

One bad thing about the Amy and Marcellas show is that they usually isolate from everyone else.

It's the HUMOR we like, not the nastiness
When have Roddy or Chiara been funny?
They are just nasty. They mean what they say, and are mean when they say it.
