Seamonkey | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 09:38 pm     Her agent? She also met Marcellas before.. She already tried out for the Amazing Race and got into "finals". She and Rob both know Cindy who was on TAR4. Dare I guess.. implants? |
Reichenfan8 | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 11:12 pm     ok... seeing erika cry at the end of tonight's episode really got on my nerves! i never found her to be the least bit interesting before (hence my previous post), but she never pissed me off either. but crying over pb&j?? yes, she's skinny, and she probably could have used the extra food, but with the way she was acting, you'd think jee was sentencing her to death via starvation. |
Tabbyking | Saturday, August 23, 2003 - 11:23 pm     i can't believe the moronic HOH challenge this week. i mean, 6+ hours in a claustrophia-inducing cage...and rolling one skee ball? i just can't get into this show at all. i think jun and ali are both so busy running from one side to the other---i wish they would trip up. but little g-man and the nosepicker are not where i would want the money to go... i hate to say it, because i don't like her at all, either, but since jack won't be there to win, i'll go for jun. she has at least been entertaining. i can understand erika having to side somewhere because if jack goes, she has to have something lined up already. but she's been kind of 'beige' the entire season. i almost gagged when ali went right to g-man and the robert and said 'we...', as if they were all allied from the beginning. if erika or jack had gotten the POV, she would have been right with them, saying what are 'we' doing next. i am glad the sequestered hamsters get to see what's going on...although dana and justin may be too busy making out to pay much attention.(and isn't that scary? shudder)... that leaves nate so far to figure out who to vote for! |
Muse | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 12:47 am     I'm getting a little tired of Erika, too. I'm annoyed by how she's been telling Ali and Jun that she's upset about Jack assuming she's leaving. Why *wouldn't* he? Erika hasn't been upfront with him, so he's really going on limited (and false) information. Erika doesn't have to tell Jack that she's working to stay in (although I really think Jack would understand and not really do much if he knew), but she should at least understand why he's so sure she's going. He's not being rude about it or trying to rub it in her face, after all. He actually feels bad about it. And then Erika goes and tells Jack all about how she hates Ali...yeah, but apparently she's good enough to spend time bashing Jack with, or at least laughing at Jun and Ali's comments. I've been okay with Erika for awhile now, mainly because she was aligned with people I liked (Jack and David). And she wasn't as cruel as some of the HGs. I've always thought she was a little on the boring side, though. I don't like how she gives herself so much credit for playing the game, either...she's skating by because people *know* she doesn't play the game well (doesn't have a lot of real allies, generally only associates with those in her alliance at the time, would have difficulty winning in the final two, etc). If she does somehow make the final two, it'd be mainly because of luck and the work of other people who knew she wasn't serious competition, *not* because she herself played so well. |
Beruthiel | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 04:56 am     Muse, your final paragraph gave me deja vu. It sounds just like Lisa from last year, I kid you not! Erika and Jack both said that their early strategy was 'flying under the radar', and since they are au courant with previous BB's, they must know how Lisa won last year. Apart from her 'bundling' with Eric, Lisa was a non-player and skated last year too, and only made a move when she voted Amy back into the house instead of Eric. Just because laying low is a quiet strategy doesn't mean it's not a valid one, and we have seen that it can work to bide one's time and get aggressive only at the end stages. It worked for Lisa, after all! I can agree with criticisms of Erika for a lot of things, but for being boring, or too beige, well, I just don't get it. If a strategy works, what's wrong with it? |
Tobor7 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:15 pm     She reminds me of a 3-year-old singing that song she made up. |
Misslibra | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:25 pm     If you were stuck in the BB house with no outside simulation, and not allowed to sing any songs, if you did sing something you might sound like a 3 year old to. LOL Song writer I don't think was on the lists of things she said she knew how to do. They are just trying to break the boredom in the house, and being a little silly while doing it. No harm no foul. ERIKA FINAL TWO, WIN ERIKA WIN !  |
Avrey258 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:26 pm     Didn't Robert say "she's a liar, she's going to be 34 this year"? Which is comical because she never claimed to be 33, she is 33. I certainly don't take anything Robert says as fact. |
Darkhorse19 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:28 pm     Erika reminds me of a spoiled brat that got whatever she wanted as a child. Crying over those stupid dogs... She has been my least favorite hg from week one and still is. |
Misslibra | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:29 pm     Dog's are a lot smarter then a lot of humans. |
Pengoh | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:29 pm     Holy.. I had to leave my cat for two WEEKS and I cried. He is my baby. You're obviously not an animal lover. |
Gina8642 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:36 pm     IMO - Erika is not 'not playing' this game. The only one just skating along so far is Rob. Rob sole trick this entire game has been to glom on to Justin and Jee. Yes, he won two POVs, but only because Jee didn't want them. Erika on the other hand has been plotting all along. Her plots were sometimes bird brained and went no where, but she was plotting. She attempting to implement her plots. She took HOH. She used emotional black mail against Jee to get him to take the deal in the cage. Erika is many things, but she isn't under the radar or skating through this game. Avery - Yes, Robert said that. I was actually watching his convo with Jee and Justin when he said it. Both of them kinda looked at him like is he nuts?!?, but they didn't call him on it. He was ranting too much and I don't think they wanted to be the voice of reason around him. |
Misslibra | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:42 pm     Gina, when people say Erika is under the radar it's because they aren't watching the same BB we are or they just dislike Erika so much that no matter what she do in the game they would find something to say against her. But it's ok everyone have HG's they like and one's they dislike.  |
Gina8642 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:51 pm     LOL - the thing is I don't particularily like Erika, but call a spade a spade. She isn't UTR, she isn't an evil person because she loves her animals, etc, etc, etc... However - She may be evil because she wears WAY TOO MUCH PINK (especially HOT PINK) and it isn't a good shade on her... |
Misslibra | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:54 pm     Gina LOL I agree with you about the pink... but hey, she loves the color, what are you going to do ? LOL She is so turning me into a color pink hater. LOL |
Zachsmom | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 08:57 pm     note to self: do NOT allow anyone from TVCH know how much pink you wear, do not let them see your closet or drawers to let them know how much you LOVE the color pink. Also, don't let them know that Zachary's favorite color is pink, because mommy's favorite color is pink |
Pengoh | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 09:00 pm     My car is pink |
Misslibra | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 09:02 pm     ZM, sorry I forgot you like pink, yes pink is a lovely color. LOL Pengoh, is it a Marykay car ?  |
Pengoh | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 09:05 pm     It's a 94 Ford Aspire ;) |
Widowswalk | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 09:06 pm     But Erika won a jacket or shirt with a pink rabbit or fake fur collar in the shopping spree and was happy. She said it would go with her pink boots. Pink rabbit fur. Bunny must hear of this. Maybe a realitive dyed pink. |
Wahmmy | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 09:07 pm     Erika needs to start eating so she can keep them boobs up there where they belong. There is something wrong with someone who gets a Snickers and just "smells" it! She need to be gone just to get to a decent meal! |
Gina8642 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 09:07 pm     PINK is a wonderful color. I have at least two pink sweaters. However, PINK does not look good on Erika. And she hasn't figured this out yet.... |
Seamonkey | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 09:09 pm     I'm actually, for the first time, starting to sort of like Erika This of course dooms her. |
Tobor7 | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 09:18 pm     Sea? What incident made you start to like her? Did she do something that was irresistible? |
Misslibra | Sunday, August 24, 2003 - 09:22 pm     She smelled the snickers because she can't eat it thanks to Jee. It's Jee's fault she can't eat. Jee see the poor girl is already thin, I think Jee's plan is to try to starve Erika since he can't seem to get rid of her any other way. Every time he put her up for eviction she stays. LOL Sea, then you have my permission to go back to not liking her if it means she is doomed. LOL |
