Is CBS trying to FORCE us to like Robert? ggrrrrr!
Polypody | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 02:17 pm     Perhaps they can't make us like him, but they sure as heck can make all the viewers without line feeds like him! Yes, people do act differently under pressure and we do see sides of the hamsters that perhaps we wouldn't unless we lived with them. I am offended by CBS sugar-coating this very troubled man. Kalekona-I am sure you have been asked this before--but are you a relative of Robert? |
Scarlet | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 02:21 pm     Kale: I say that because I DO NOT think anyone can be a totally different person 24/7. I believe we ARE seeing the real Robert..as in your post: "They can only "make" those people not watching like him." CBS edits for ratings and they have portrayed a different Rob. IMO |
Csnog | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 02:22 pm     Poly, I asked Kalekona that very question a few weeks ago. lol |
Katlady53 | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 02:24 pm     Csnog said: "Robert is this years mind bender Roddy." I'd like to add a few words to your statement, if you don't mind. "Robert is this years mind bender Roddy WITHOUT A BRAIN." Lol |
Tishala | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 02:26 pm     So Katlady, does that mean Roddy had a brain? Cause I have to confess I never saw evidence of it. |
Katlady53 | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 02:27 pm     Tishala, I think Roddy had more of a brain than Robert which, I guess, doesn't say too much, huh? Lol |
Kalekona | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 02:34 pm     Why is it so hard for some of you to believe that someone can see a different side of someone than the majority and not be related to them? My biggest reason for supporting Robert is the unfair attacks he's gotten repeatedly. Would i want my daughter to date robert? No but then I've taught her about guys like him. Would i want her to have him as a friend? Possibly, as a friend he is loyal even Elanas mother said they remain good friends. Do i think he has no redeeming qualities? No someone who loves ther child as fiercly as Robert and who has that love returned can not be all bad, there must be something good in them. I choose to look for the good rather than dwell on the negative.. So much of which has been blown out of purportion. So no i'm not related to Robert. |
Xarph | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 02:58 pm     Personally, I would rather feed the turtles. |
Csnog | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 02:58 pm     But Kale, you have not looked for much of the good in Erika. |
Widowswalk | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:01 pm     Oh Robert has to win. The justified outrage is too good for me to pass up. I love just thinking about pissing off the good women of the tv audience. This is great. |
Wendo | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:06 pm     I would say CBS is trying to force the tv audience to like Robert. Those who've formed opinions about Robert from the feeds I doubt will be swayed by the tv show. |
Tishala | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:12 pm     I finally realized last night that Robert's eyebrows are too light, kinda like Dick Gephardt's. I believe Robert would be more likeable if he darkened them or used some eyebrow pencil on them. |
Kalekona | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:12 pm     Csnog - oh but your wrong about that. I even said last night i'd like to see Erika, Robert Jee and Jun ad the F4 And that Erika is the strongest HG right now, especially when it comes to endurance. Her talk with Robert was amazing and she doesn't bother me as much as she use to. But then I don't spend post after post trashing Erika, or any other HG. Or assume that from comments they've made that they are a certain way.. example Erika a racist because of the remarks she made about jee.. I think it was ugly but i'm not calling her a racist for it. I actually want Jack gone-he is just annoying me and seems like dead weight and then Al;i because ...well because she's Ali. |
Kathyb | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:18 pm     I don't understand why Robert gets such praise for loving his daughter. Don't the vast majority of fathers love their kids? I think it's natural, not something that deserves special consideration, or excuses his other horrible behaviors. |
Csnog | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:19 pm     Kale, Most of us feel the same way about Robert. He is annoying me and I don't want him to win the money and ........well he's Robert. |
Sanfranjoshfan | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:23 pm     Widowswalk - you're forgetting it's not the good women "of the tv audience" that would be pissed off....it's the ones "of the *live feed* audience". The TV audience has no reason to be pissed about Robert winning.....due to the editing, as far as they know, he's a bonafide hero of BB4 that deserves to win. Also, I must say....your enjoyment of people being outraged is fascinating. I wish *you* were in the house...I think you would've turned out to be a bigger instigator than Will Mega of BB1, good old Dr Evil of BB2, Josh of BB3, and Jun of BB4 all rolled into one! And to top it off, you would've loved all the debate on the boards once you got out and read what everyone had to say about you! lol |
Wendo | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:24 pm     Tishala, I'm afraid darker eyebrows would not change my opinion of Robert. LOL! Good try though. Csnog, I'm with you. Robert's actions on the feeds and his angry comments about women annoy me and I don't want him to win the money. In fact, I would find it rather nice if he were evicted just before the final two. He wouldn't go to the sequester house nor would he get any significant money. Karma. |
Csnog | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:26 pm     Ohhhh YES Wendo. No money and no vacation in the Tropics. |
Widowswalk | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:29 pm     SanFran- Hee Hee |
Xarph | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:36 pm     This thread reminds me of something I once read on sci.space.policy. |
Prisonerno6 | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 03:43 pm     "Everyone that has talked about him says good things about him," Or perhaps CBS has only shown us the good things that have been said about Robert. Certainly Erika has said negative things about him, at least on the live feeds. Of course, CBS would never air it. |
Philamom | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 04:06 pm     hee hee, xarph ... I was laughing unconTROLLably. |
Beruthiel | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 04:09 pm     Lol, Xarph, that's really and TROLLY a good site! |
Widowswalk | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 04:43 pm     Booga Booga- Here comes Robert.,,,,,BOO! (lmao) |
Crossfire | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 04:46 pm     OMG, how strange to see that given what I just posted in another thread. Heheheheh. |
Katlady53 | Friday, August 22, 2003 - 09:01 am     Tishala, thanks for pointing out the Dick Gebhardt eyebrows! I KNEW there was something missing from his face and couldn't quite figure it out! |
