Nate's Pretty BUT.........
Chicaloca453 | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 03:17 am     I absolutely can't stand him! True, he does look a lot like former New Kid On the Block Joey McEntyre, who I adored, but this guy is dumb. He is so taken in by Ali's flirts that he doesn't see the big picture. Ali would stab him in the back anytime she got the chance. I CAN'T STAND HER! And what Justin (really hot) saw in her is beyond me. Oh, and what happened to this boyfriend she "hopes she still has" on the outside? I don't think she will when he sees how the garden tool is acting. Anyway, back to Nate, he was my favorite going in. But now, I hope he goes in 2 weeks.......right after garden tool Ali next week! I never thought I'd say this, but now I'm pulling for Justin. Maybe it's the fact that he got rid of the Caesar (yes, Marcellis, it is tired). He has a killer bod and a brain in his head. |
Willwillbee | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 04:18 am     As in his own words, Ali's the brains - he's the bronze!! (Apparently he doesn't aspire to be the gold medal winner) |
Serene | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 06:09 am     I actually think he said Ali was the brains, and he was the braun (muscle), but he said "brauns" because it sounded plural like brains. This assures us he isn't the brains! And my family and I had a big laugh last night while watching Dana be so evil. My youngest son (17) popped up in his gruffest voice with this priceless line from Ghostbusters..... "There is no Dana....only Zuel!" |
Spwisc | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 06:28 am     I'm feeling the same way. Nate has become annoying. Funny the way he was all jealous of how she was coming onto Justin in the hot tub but he still used that stupid veto. I wanted her out so bad!!! |
Marymary | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 06:56 am     well....name one of the remaining HGs that isn't annoying..(maybe Jack hasn't annoyed me) ...but this admiration for Justin escapes me...he's short and I don't think he's all that smart AND he's as much of a <> as anyone...maybe more...you can't believe that he's really attracted to the '<>'! OMG, the mouth on that woman. cw |
Spwisc | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 07:27 am     What does short have to do with anything??? You blew your whole comment with that. What do all the <> mean??? ARe you meaning j*rk, or something like that when you use those html brackets?? |
Kaili | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 07:41 am     The brackets are deletions from the mods for certain...unpleasantness..in vocabulary. |
Spwisc | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 07:44 am     thanks Kaili... wow, they must be pretty nasty words for them to remove them. |
Moderator | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 07:55 am     It doesn't have to be nasty - just any namecalling at all. |
Angelbleu | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 08:48 am     Yes I thought Nathan was gorgeous when I first saw him but he seems to be getting uglier to me as the days go on. |
Cliotheleo | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 08:56 am     Ok Mary, I'll break it down for ya. Justin ISN'T the tallest guy in the house, but he's built like a brick poopie house (if guys can be built like that?) I love his accent and right now he seems to be playing the smartest game (after Jun.) The way he's so affectionate toward Dana just makes me all warm and toasty. I wouldn't dislike him if he DID lie and cheat, but the fact that he doesn't and is still doing pretty well is very admirable. Chica, the fact that Nate looks like one of New Kids on the Block would be ALL the reason I'd need to NOT like him. (ha ha) |
Maris | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 09:04 am     I am with you there Clio. That is why my two favorites are probably Jee and Justin. I also agree with Angel. It has seemed to me over the past few big brothers, the shows always start out with people who are eye candy and as they get caught up in the righteousness of their plans, their looks seem to deteriorate (Dorian Gray syndrome). It does seem to be a physical transformation. I have seen it in Nathan and I also saw it in Hardy, Chiara and Marcellas. |
Bbfanatic | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 09:22 am     nate looks like one of the guys on boy meets boy on bravo. they look like they could almost be brothers |
What555456 | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 09:26 am     Nate is exactly the type of guy I would want to meet in a bar. Damned hot body, but so taken with himself he would be so easy to manipulate into bed for just a good romp in the hay. God knows, though, he seems to have little else to offer than being a sex toy.  |
Spunky | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 09:27 am     I don't care if he screws up big time or if he goes next. All I wanted him to do is use that darn VETO and he did. That makes me happy for the remainder of the game. Thanks Nate for the entertainment!!! |
Marymary | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 10:47 am     I'm with you Spunky...I wouldn't count him (Nathan) out just yet! |
Nanc | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:11 pm     Oh Nathan isn't nearly as dumb as some think. I think there is a lot of prejudice toward Nathan because of his twang, and because of his looks...almost a reverse pejudice. I like him actually. At least he is aware that he isn't as smart as Allie. I've also heard a few thoughtful discussions with Jack. Especially when he asked how Jack felt being with all the younger people, and then he asked about Jack's kids. It was kind of sweet. As far as his game play.....it will all depend on HOH this week. If he or Allie get it, then he is looking pretty good...lol in more ways than one. |
Ark | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:16 pm     I don't know if he said "bronze" or "brauns", all I know is he cracked me up. When he convinced himself that David was staying, he cracked me up again. He is nice to look at but someone needs to sew his mouth shut. Clio, Justin has lied, he just isn't lying so much this week, cause he's at the top of the heap. He is a cutie, none the less. |
Cliotheleo | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:19 pm     Just out of curiosity I looked up "brawn" at dictionary.com and this is what I got....... brawn (brôn) n. 1. Solid and well-developed muscles, especially of the arms and legs. 2. Muscular strength and power. 3. Chiefly British. The meat of a boar. (and then the one I found most amusing.....) 4. Headcheese. LOL! "headcheese"! Can I PLEASE start calling Nathan "headcheese!" PLEASE! PLEASE PLEASE!!!!! |
Minnyace01 | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:19 pm     Nanc - I agree with you. Ali and Nate will need to win HOH both this week and next because I don't see Jack or Erica ever winning it. If they can win it back to back, put out Dana and Justin, it could get interesting. |
Sanfranjoshfan | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:25 pm     What about Nate's pretty butt? (referring to this thread's title>
 |
Maris | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:26 pm     Clio, I will go with the headcheese definition |
Jagger | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:31 pm     I think Nate is brighter than what he is letting on, I think he wants everyone to beleive he is just a golly gee type of a guy and hoping to slip by a few more weeks and than show his talent. But that is just a guess, he may actually be as dumb as a box of rocks, but that's the fun of watching the show to see if you can really guess what type of a person someone is. |
Oregonfire | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:32 pm     I'm not taken with Nate either, or David for that matter. Justin's the only one that does anything for me. He's got that spark. (I haven't been watching much this year, just my brief impressions.) That Nate/Ali "date" with its insipid, uninspired, neo-flirtatious banter was enough to make me change the channel last time BB was on. Barf. |
Pulk | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:33 pm     Jagger, i can also see Nate saving himself numerous times (POV) especially now he doesn't have to compete against Dave and if Justin is taken out soon then the road is clear for him. |
Delilah | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:35 pm     LOLOL Clio! DO you know all the disgusting things that go into making headcheese? It looks decent on the outside (attractive even) but it is made up of all kinds of gross meat leftovers (testicles, feet, eyeballs etc...) Sounds like this decribes Nate to a T!  |
Maris | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 12:37 pm     Yep, he is Dorian Gray's headcheese. |
Dallasbbfan | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 01:52 pm     LOL SanFran! Thanks, I needed a good laugh. |
Chicaloca453 | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 03:33 pm     <<Oh Nathan isn't nearly as dumb as some think. I think there is a lot of prejudice toward Nathan because of his twang>> Well, I started the post and was the first to say he was dumb. And FYI, I'm southern. He's a dumb boy who was thinking with his manhood instead of his brain. That is the DUMBEST thing any man can do. It will get you in trouble every time. It was a dumb move to use the veto. It ticked off everyone in the house except the thinks she's so pretty little blonde. If I was stuck with these people, I'd do what I had to to NOT alienate them. He did just the opposite, which makes him dumb. His move was above Gee nominating an ex against an original cast member and Dana NOT nominating Nate on the dumb player meter. |
Bluerose | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 04:14 pm     And I'm with You MaryMary. Justin is short(Ali calls him the midget)which is not his fault but consorting with the likes of Dana is and he cannot be forgiven for that. The funny part is, he is on tape saying he doesn't find her attractive. Jee, I wonder why? |
Ricki23 | Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - 04:34 pm     I didn't know where to put this. But here in Tulsa, OK a radio station is going to interview Nate's mom tomorrow about Dana "The House Bully" as they put it. If I catch it, I'll let you know what she says. |
Thrandui1 | Thursday, July 31, 2003 - 12:32 am     One of my first posts on this board... Two points: About Nate, I don't think he is as (morally) despicable as some may have suggested earlier in this thread. In my opinion, Chicaloca453 got the exact explanation as to Nate's behavior. I became convinced of that when I saw the way he conducted the POV meeting. All along, you can see how sure and unquestioning of his own "right" he is. I don't think he has a shred of that faculty displayed by Dave, Jack, Justin and Jun of "being able to imagine one's own choices through other people's point of view". But at the same, why, oh why do people claim that Alison has got brains???? She might be more scheeming than Nate, but she too is utterly lacking in that capacity of "empathy" with others' thinking. And she seems even more self-centered than he is. I loved the exchange (shown yesterday on TV) between Justin and her, when he very calmly tells her how people see her as double-faced. Just observe the way she ends up showing her indignation: is there an ounce of subtelty in that woman? And then again, at the POV meeting. Nate: "Why should I choose to exercise my POV on either of you?" Alison: "Because I deserve a second chance." WHAT? What does this have to do with anything? What is this idea that people are being voted off because they be either unpleasant or morally dubious? This is neither school, nor a court of law, nor a confessional, nor a congressional hearing, but a contest! A relevant answer would have subtely implied either "I am a wimp therefore I am no threat to any of you, O ye magnificent HGs" or "I am the best possible ally to a majority among you". But of course, it doesn't matter what Alison was to answer to Nate's question, since his decision was already made and that the whole thing was just for show. And then, what does Nate reply? "I think Alison deserves a second chance." If Alison's statement was irrelevant, Nate's is inane and his delivery is revealing of his personality: he picks up her words trying to make them sound as pearls of wisdom uttered by Mr. Compassion... The guy lives in a two-dimensional universe (the kind inhabited by a certain President), completely incapable of subtle or complex thought. (For once, I thought Dana's words cornered the situation perfectly: "he thinks he's this superhero on a mission to save Ali." Although it was rather unsubtle of Dana to express such idea out loud at the meeting.) But then, maybe I am too harsh. This is Big Brother after all, not the Nobel committee... So, the fact that he is an über-hot babe weighs probably much more in the BB-scale than any of his other failings... |
Kalekona | Thursday, July 31, 2003 - 01:00 am     It looked like he used the veto for Ali and her flirting, but look at his vote.. he used the veto to get Dave out of the house. period. And I want to have a front row seat when erika finally realizes it. |
Karuuna | Thursday, July 31, 2003 - 08:07 am     Nice post Thrandui, hope to see you posting more! |
