Costacat | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 05:55 pm     Sorry... gotta do this... I wanna complain that Jun is DOING HER NAILS!! Yet AGAIN!!! Again??? I mean, she *does* have the same number of fingers that the rest of us do, yes? |
Lostintheglades | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 06:03 pm     Ditto Just...all day today the quad showed 4 views of the same thing...it was hard to follow anyone.....(trying to keep an eye on Justin and Dana right now. |
Goddessatlaw | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 07:04 pm     MM wants to complain that he watched the whole show specifically because I told him Allison was going to hump Nathan in a lapdance, and he still missed it. He would like a screencap, please, if possible. LOL. |
Hamsterlady | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 07:05 pm     I've got a screencap Goddess.... It's included in the Toe-Sucking thread near the bottom if it hasn't been wiped off already. |
Goddessatlaw | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 07:06 pm     LOLOL - thanks, Hamsterlady. You may have saved my night. |
Justareader | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 10:47 pm     It's totally annoying that one or two cams is/are always following Michelle - yeah she is cute but puullleeaassee! |
Lurknomore | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 09:47 am     Ok I have a MAJOR complaint. As some of us talked about in the short topic thread, last night Jun BASHED Curtis from BB1 as being a boor, ugly and (said in a spewing tone) Chinese. She repeated some of these things. Now in my book this is close to BLASPHEMY and I expected a much bigger board outcry bout this. It's the next day and I'm still fuming. I'd trade every one of these losers for my enjoyable and beloved Curtis. Where is everyone? Why is no one else as upset as me??? |
Jan | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 09:51 am     Lurk..this is the first I've heard of it as I have not been watching or reading feeds (sigh, nothing interesting to watch or read, sigh) IF JUN were not Asian herself, there probably would have been more of an outcry. It seems we can all spew nonsense about our own race but, rightfully so, not about another race...and we already know that Jun is ANTI ASIAN men. She will only date Caucasian men..so it is not a surprise that she hates Curtis. But I did like Curtis...and Iwill defend him! |
Ryanc829 | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 09:54 am     Lurk - Shall we protest for an emergency penalty nom? |
Lurknomore | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 09:58 am     Let me tell you something I learned from a friend of mine, who was married to a Chinese girl. His brother later married a Vietnamese girl. Well seems the Vietnamese society looks down BIG TIME on the Chinese society. They had their own mini soap opera going in that family. I have no clue where the Korean society fall into this, as I try to avoid anyone of any background that thinks this way. So there may be more going on than just Jun's dislike of Koreans. There might be some of this absurd snobbery. My bottom line--I don't care if she is a Martian...NO ONE PICKS ON MY CURTIS!!!!!!!! |
Lurknomore | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 09:59 am     hehe EXCELLENT idea Ryan  |
Corriecat | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 10:01 am     Jun bashed Curtis? How dare she! Curtis was the best. I want to complain that here on the complaining thread nobody says that they were pissed off like Dana does. After hearing her say it several times last night on tv my housemate and I were adding "and it pissed me off" to everything she said. I think it should be a rule like on the <hd> Osborne thread. |
Bohawkins | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 10:26 am     Lurk... you are correct about the racial slur. Strangely, in the world of PC (political correctness) it is ok somehow to make racial comments about your own race, especially if you are Asian. Asian, by the way, now not only includes all of the previously "oriental" people, but Indians and Pakistanis as well. In the new PC definition and tradition the Chinese, Japanese, Koreans and Indians are considered fair game for slurs from each other. However, if you are white you can't make a comment about the Irish or the Italians unless you are one. PC is so puzzling. |
Laisey | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 10:27 am     Now Lurk, let's be charitable. When one does not have the intellectual capacity to appreciate true wit, they are certain to be bored by it. As for the rest of her statement -- same intelect problem. |
Lurknomore | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 10:27 am     Corrie, I HATE to let my NY roots show (most of them have grown out lol) but "it pissed me off," is a very common phrase in the region, along with several varieties of it. What gets me is if she is this "pissed off now", how much will she be when she really has some cause to feel that way. LOL. Ok roots out...I'm still PISSED off about Jun dissing Curtis. I want a full scale revolt formed please! |
Corriecat | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 10:45 am     I'ts a very common phrase here too. It was the editing to use so many instances where she said it that made it so funny. |
Lurknomore | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 10:48 am     LOL Corrie aren't you one of my "neighbors" in MA? And lol you all probably heard me saying it and jumped onboard (I've been here awhile) hehe |
Lurknomore | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 10:50 am     Laisy...just saw your post. I'll speak slowly please hear my tone. SHE PICKED ON CURTIS. Now do I agree with you...YES. However...said more slowly and with additional venom...SHE PICKED ON CURTIS!!!!!! |
Laisey | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 10:56 am     OK Lurk OK. But remember - it is Sunday. We will have a full revolt tomorrow. Complete with picket lines and chanting. And if all else fails, we sneak into the house and steal her soy sauce. |
Laisey | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 10:59 am     Yikes. It just hit me. It's Saturday, not Sunday. All right, no charity and the revolts starts now! |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 11:35 am     This is news to me. I want to complain that I never realized that calling some Chinese, especially if they are, is a racial (or interracial) slur. By the way, Corriecat - MM and I were "pissed off" by everything last night, too. If Dana's pissed off by everything NOW, wait til she gets nominated. I shudder to think the emotion she'll express at that point. |
Sanfranjoshfan | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 11:50 am     Hmmmmmm....if Dana is currently "pissed off" at just about everything....if/when she gets nominated for eviction, will she elevate to being "pooped off"? |
Pamy | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 11:51 am     LOL I love the idea of adding 'pissed off' to all sentences about Dana! lol |
Lurknomore | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 11:54 am     I'd like to complain that I'm leaving the house for a few hours and ordinarily would be PISSED OFF at leaving BB, but right now it's not even factoring in LOL. (I'm more concerned how crowded the mall and the grocery shop I'm going to will be...for you MA people the South Shore Plaza and the Hilltop Steakhouse butcher shop LOL). |
Sanfranjoshfan | Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 11:59 am     I have something to complain about, too. That durn 14 day free trial at Real!!! I am just *hoping* that is the reason that my real media quality is crappier than usual this year. I have a really good DSL connection, over 1Mbs...and the quality of this year's feeds is the worst ever. It's only bad with BB, not toehr real media, so I am guessing that after the 14 day free trial is up, thousands of people will stop watching and the quality should get better. I am just hoping that thousands of people leaving the feeds when their initial 14 day trial ends will free up some bandwidth. Btw, this issue isn't constant, just intermittant, but consistently so. |
