Dagny | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 09:47 pm     Or have any fun. In the last couple of days, they have told Amy (Marc., and Dani) who can she can talk to and who she can't. Some how Amy has gotten the impression that she is just "there" Why can't she play? Why doesn't she deserve to win if she makes it through to the end? Is she playing?? Or is she playing them all? |
Theo17 | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 09:48 pm     she gets treated like a child mostly because she acts like a child often and also because she is weak and they all feel they can bully her. |
Txwldflr | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 09:51 pm     Lisa and Danielle had a conversation about this earlier this evening. Maybe they'll not do it as much now that they have realized that they talk to her this way. We shall see.... |
Margie | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 09:51 pm     Exactly, Theo. Amy acts like a child. She's always looking for reassurance and she pouts when she doesn't get her way. The rest of the houseguests step up into the parent role, and she pouts because she "never gets to have any fun". If she acts like a teenager she's going to get treated like one. |
Stingerman | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 09:56 pm     It goes against the odds but I would love to see Amy win HOH next week. That would really piss off a few people. Marcellus don't you dare nominate her because I don't think you can trust the rest of them!!! |
Bbholden | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 09:59 pm     You know what makes me just disgusted? When the victim is blamed for what happened to them. If Amy is totally childlike, stupid, ugly or walks on her hands, who gives anyone the right to take advantage of that?? What a slimy way to win anything, by stepping on someone else instead of finding or carving your own path. What makes Amy's weight a topic for conversation? Amy weighed 117 lbs when they were weighed, less than any of the other women. If she gained 20lbs, which she has not, she would still weigh less than the heaviest woman there. Why do these people feel they have a right to even mention anything other than the strategy of the guests? Why should we, or anyone, say Amy deserves being treated like a child because we think she acts like one? How she acts to some, does not mean that others feel she acts that way. I can't see blaming the victim and not blaming the bully. |
Theo17 | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:01 pm     bbholden I was explaining why it happens not justifying it. I dont think its right at all. I think amy has as much right to be there as anyone else. I also think if she keeps getting on everyones nerves she makes herself an easy target for eviction. |
Theo17 | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:02 pm     bb also I dont think amy is heavy but she had no problem picking on tonyas and gerrys appearance so maybe its a case of people in glass houses shouldnt throw stones. |
Maris | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:04 pm     Amy is getting on everyones nerves only because she is Dannis designated victim this week. Danni wasted no time getting with Lisa after the live show to trash Amy. It all comes down to Danni. They talk about Roddy as the master manipulator but it is Danni, she leads them like sheep to the slaughter. |
Dagny | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:05 pm     I A ..I think Amy being the smallest girl in the house...is why they are attacking her about her weight. |
Theo17 | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:07 pm     dagny she is the smallest but not in great shape. That said who cares what who weighs. Amy picked at gerrys weight and now they pick on her weight. Just people being petty |
Dagny | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:07 pm     I should add...who has commented about Amy's weight issues? Dani...Marc...and?? Help me out..anyone else? |
Bigbrotherbelle | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:32 pm     Not anyone else that I can recall Dagny. BTW, I agree totally with you. --- Amy acts like a child, so she is treated like a piece of cr@p? Is that how Dani treats her children? Because I surely hope she wouldn't talk to or about a child like that. |
Dagny | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:38 pm     I don't think it's appropriate to comment on Dani's kids.. (they didn't ask for this) However...I don't think it's beneath Dani to run all of the other HG's to the ground....when it suit's her purpose. I think I am more disgusted in Jason at this moment...for his "cold" and even at times "AMY, do I look like I give a shit" attitude towards Amy. |
Onlyhuman | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:41 pm     Dagny, do you have any idea why Jason is acting this way? For two weeks Amy has been one of his closest playmates. He hung out in the HOH with her when she was HOH and he's been flirting like crazy. Now, tonight, he's just been very cold and almost angry towards her. Is there any indication of why that you can see? |
Bbholden | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:45 pm     Theo, just to let you know, when I post I post about the topic, not the other posters, unless that IS the topic. I sincerely apologize if you felt I was being negative toward you personally. I enjoy your posts, and would not be rude on purpose. I'm beginning to feel like Amy...lol Every time I open my mouth, someone gets offended or thinks I am making it personal...lol I owe you a cup of coffee Theo, you already have my apology. |
Dagny | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:46 pm     OH-According to Dani Amy tried to flash her goods to Jason on purpose last night. That turned Jason off.. (there is a whole thread about this somewhere) Let me see if I can track that down for you...or if someone else can help us out. |
Bbholden | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:47 pm     I also was sort of surprised by Jason's attitude, but then I am rather unhappy with him anyway. I just don't like fakers and to me, he fakes his friendships. I feel bad for Amy because she thinks he is going to be her date for the fair... how will she feel when she goes home and sees the tapes? |
Seamonkey | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:47 pm     Yes, Dani keeps mentioning Amy's weight-gain to Lisa and Marcellas and maybe Jason. Even an actual child deserves respect. Lisa and Marcellas have their childish moments and Roddy whines.. just quietly.. he is always being "hurt" by someone and getting them to apologize for his bad behavior towards them.. go figure. And how many times has he "sheepishly" called himself a "softy".. right. When Dani said this week that she'd told Amy she had NO chance to win and should do what she was told to help her friends, I almost fried my keyboard! I guess she's easy to pick on.. like, small thing, but they all ragged on her for not sunbathing... ok she sunbathed and then was mocked for having sunburn.. arrgh. |
Onlyhuman | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:48 pm     Thanks Dagny, I remember that whole thing that Dani instigated. I just didn't realize that that is the reason that Jason is being so standoffish. Has he mentioned it again since then or is that just your impression of why he's so cold to her? |
Dagny | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:49 pm     OH...you should read through this thread... ../10972/1048481.html?1030654791 |
Seamonkey | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:50 pm     Re: Dani's aspersions cast last night re: Amy.. there is a thread with much discussion and several people who actually observed that situation said "didn't happen".. |
Bigbrotherbelle | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:51 pm     Just to clearify (hehe), I was not making a judgement on how Dani's kids are treated. In three years, of BB watching I have never gone there and won't start now. I was making a judgement on how Dani treats Amy - a poster said she is treated like a child because she acts like a child... my first thought is "you don't treat children like that." So, I guess I should have phrased it, do you think she treats children like that? No, so whether Amy is childlike or not, that doesn't make her deserve to be treated like cr@p and talked about like cr@p. |
Onlyhuman | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:54 pm     Seamonkey, I agree with you. There is nothing Amy can do right. Much of it started with Roddy's nomination of Amy, in which he made those insulting, condescending remarks TO HER FACE. The fact that she accepted them and tried to handle the situation with some semblance of decorum means that now everyone feels like it is "open season" on Amy. Many times they say insulting things to her directly that they would NEVER say to each other. They know that she will never confront them directly because she is very non-confrontational. The fact that she keeps smiling and attempting to enjoy her time in the house in spite of all of this is never acknowledged. Yes, she pouts at times but she's also the house mongrel...everyone feels it's okay to kick her when they are stressed or angry. If I were in her shoes, I'd be doing MUCH more than pouting, that's for sure! ps...thanks for the link dagny |
Theo17 | Thursday, August 29, 2002 - 10:54 pm     bb no appology needed but thanks anyway. I didnt think you were getting personal. I always respect when somebody stands up for someone being bullied. I was just explaining some background noise. Best of luck |
