I didn't laugh, but didn't think much about the joke one way or the other. What I always notice on the live shows (and in his DR entries) is that Roddy is so stiff and uncomfortable. That forced smile looks like a jackal baring its teeth. The other hgs seem much more comfortable in comparison. It makes me wonder when the "being nice" part of his persona is so forced. How much does he secretly hate us all?

Oregon, do you really think he's trying to keep it secret?

Actually I do when he's in the DR and during the live shows. But in the feeds? Fugetaboutit, his secret is out!

I thought Eric's "Veto" joke was a lot funnier.

Please be more specific.. laugh with him ? or at him? As many have said , a true sense of humour is one where you laugh at your own expense. Don't see any of that with this guy.

I agree about the forced smiles, Oregonfire - although they always look to me like he's getting his back teeth X-rayed. No warm fuzzies there at all.

There are so many things about Roddy that do bother me........
1 why does he call them all kid ?
Jason's a good kid, Josh was a good kid
2 he over-complements everyone. What is worse is that they believe him.
3 He blamed Josh for not being able to tell jokes in the house. He said Josh would put him down once he did say a joke.
4 That's the old < fill in name here >
5 Good job < fill in name here >
6 Opera man singing, what is with that singing ?
7 He is a liar and says he would never hurt anyone.

Anyone else have some ?

I laughed at the way he danced at the Sheryl Crowe show.

I didn't laugh at the "joke". Just didn't think it was funny. The thing about Roddy is he doesn't appear to have a sense of humor. So when he does try to joke around, he has no sense of comic timing. I guess that's what it was about Thurs. joke, the timing was all off; as well as the delivery. It seemed so forced (and now I realize, it was since he planned it.)

"laugh with him ? or at him? As many have said , a true sense of humour is one where you laugh at your own expense." That is a VERY good point, Wiseolowl. While I like Roddy <cowering in fear from other's reaction to that confession>, he has not shown any ability to laugh at himself. Even Marcie and Amy do that.

Pattie, hear hear! The things that bother me about Roddy are too numerous to mention. I'd still be sitting here typing by the time BB7 rolled around.

However, the worst is (and I'm borrowing Hillbilly's wording here) that darn Vulcan mind meld thing. It's too spooky to watch.

I laughed two times tonight at Roddy revealing himself.
First in his chat with Jason in HoH bedroom. He did a silly French accent and pantomined twirling a moustache telling Jason that he suspects that the previous housguests are painting him a certain way.
The other moment is when he had his residence key safely back in his hand after the nominations. He smirked and sniffed the key.
Both made me chuckle.

I didn't laugh. Didn't think it funny. I remember thinking that it annoyed me to even associate himself with La Lucci.
Roddy scares me. Something about him is frightening. The way he can persuade others to do things his way and not even realise it. Danni, shake Jason before it is too late, make him use the Veto. I don't really want to watch anymore.

Theo17, I loved Will's DR's too - in fact I just loved Will! I would have loved to have seen Will and Roddy in the same house. Now that would a been something!

I'm not sure this is "funny" but it is odd about Roddy. Has anyone noticed how he often refers to himself in the third person. "How is that going to turn out for your pal Rod?" And, when he's in "full bully mode"(like with J in the HOH room), he uses the person's name in nearly every sentence. I laughed b/c at one point in that particular conversation, J started doing it right back to Roddy.

Any psychology majors out there with insight?

Why does Roddy keep on calling Amy A-mo? It makes me grind my teeth!
