Topic: Live Feed updates for Thursday 8/9

[breinejm]

I just checked the CBS.com site and if anyone thinks that Dick doesn't have a fan base you are sorely mistaken.. highest I think I have ever seen a HG's rating

http://www.cbs.com/primetime/bigbrother8/polls/results.shtml

And I can only think how sad that people don't mind watching an abuser like this in order to be entertained.  Like others, I cannot wait for Amber and Dani to go due to their whining, but this Richard is truly a Dick and has said too many racist/homophobic/etc. comments for me.  Feel free to think "It is just a game", but all things (games included) have a line and he has crossed it way too many times for me.

Note, I am not a Dustin fan either.  I like Eric, Zach (the bunny won me over), Jen, Jameka and Jess and could handle any of them winning for different reasons.

Ok I just got caught up reading the posts from overnight up to now and now we know the AP's  choice to evict is Dustin.

Eric was really working on Jessica to reconsider....saying negative stuff about Dustin and stuff.

I know Eric will talk to others today.

If we thought Jen and Zach were kinda sorta on the fence, Eric will get them to vote out Dustin.

So, it is almost safe for me to say Dustin will be leaving tomorrow. I think Eric will succeed with his campaigning.

But then it probably will bite Eric in the ass next week.

I think the big draw to Dick is that he is such a dynamic player. One minute I am worried he is going to hit someone and then the next I am crying because he wants his daughters love so much.  If he goes this show will not be the same for me.  I have never in BB history been drawn to the live feeds like this.  I can't get enough Dick

[breinejm]

I have a few minutes right now...


Eric and Jess still chatting in HOH.  No game talk.

Eric talking about being an assistant for 2 months for the writing team of the World Wrestling Federation (or WWE or whatever).

Nick was a big WWE fan and Eric never told him about working with them. "His worst experience of his life".

Eric: I have had a bad occupational history. Telling story about it.  Who is fighting, who is going to win, etc.  Eric did not write it, but helped with the writing.  He was not hired after the 2 month trial period. He thought it was his dream job, but hated every single second.  Worked >100 hours per week.

TBTFH, Eric was thinking of WWE name dropping?

As houseguests are evicted, doesn't that skew the percentages?
When everyone was in the house, the percentages were spread farther.
Now that there are less, they are more concentrated.

I for one was shocked that ED's was more than 2-1 higher than anyone else.
Also  at Amber's 0.5!

Still Blue Tunnel From Hell...   

[RealityFreakWill]

I don't think Jessica will change her mind but I can see Eric talking to Jen and Zach today.

I'm not sure if Eric is trying to get it 4-2 or get it tied up and hoping Jessica flips and vote the other way.

I think we will find out a lot today, count on many interesting conversations among them.

At the same time, Eric knows he has to be very careful, otherwise they will get very suspicious. Especially with Jessica, ya know what I'm sayin'?

Okay if that is how you feel about Dick based on the comments that come out of his mouth, what about Amber and the stuff that she just blurts out that fall in those same categories?

[RealityFreakWill]

I think by the end of the day today we should have a good idea of who is voting for whom....

I know Jameka, Amber and Daniele's votes are already decided. That won't change.

We know who AP is voting for. So right there that's 2-2.

It's Jen and Zach's votes that are key right now.

[breinejm]

ok, we are back.  Nearly 20 min of TBTFH.

Feeds 1&2 on Eric and Jess in HOH still talking.

3&4 on HG's sleeping.

Jess is "glad Eric told her."  Of course I have no idea what he said during the Tunnel Time. I think it was about his jobs.

Eric has friends who are younger and it woke him up when they began getting good jobs.

Eric is oddball and black sheep in his family. Oldest bro went to law school, Eric got rejected to most colleges, (but went to BU right?) and hung up all his rejection letters.  It offended people whose top choice was BU (yes he went there).  He majored in communications - they have a good program. Started in A&S, but transfeered into Communications.

Eric was bad in college.  Jess: do you regret it?  Eric: one regret and you will think badly.  I had a partial scholarship and it got taken away and my parents had to pay.  I hope I can do the same for my kids.  although we are not having kids!

[breinejm]

Eric: I made a big comeback the last 2.5 years of college (lol! I was on academic probation after 2 years and now I am a college prof. I too made a big comeback!)

Eric gave his parents back his scholarship money after graduation. Graduated on time with a decent GPA.  Jess: At least you turned it around and did right.  Did you party?

Eric: I did not go to class and I did party (I resemble that remark!)

Sorry for all the personal comments, but this is not the most exciting convo.

[kevinfromduluth]

After reading the updates...its obvious that Dustin is going to go...however, I think this is going to be the last week that AP is going to work....the numbers are down and they will know immediately that Eric is the person never voting with the group....Look for ED to figure out that Eric is being controlled from outside the house this week...he almost had it 2 weeks ago, but was too worried about getting DD off the block to be concerned about it this week....Also, watch Jen, she is also smart enough to figure out that the house does not totally control the game..

[breinejm]

Jess: Do you believe Dustin's story?

Eric ABout stealing money from his parents?

Jess: I did know about that?!

Eric: I believe Joe and Dustin went to drug houses, etc.

Eric: I believe Amber. Jameka has not really explained her job.  "I work for a school system"  That is vague.

Jess: She explained it to me.  She is like a school counselor.

Eric: Mike I don't know, Zach I don't know.  Kail is a business owner.  Nick, I assume he is a football player.

ANd I lost the feed.  Let me try to reload.

[breinejm]

Now Jess is talking about Carol. I did not talk to her the last 2 years of HS, but we were BFF's before that.

Eric: You got the last laugh. She'll stil make it out like this never happened. But Joe must want to hang himself.  He brought Dustin in and now Dustin is doing well in te greater scheme of things.

Jess: Poor Joe.

Jess: I totally believe Dani is a Hooter's girl

Eric: A little fishy, a hooters girl who scored highest on the test. I got 47 of the 50 questions and it got increasingly harder. Does not mean I got them all right.

Jess: I only had like 9 questions!  I thought there were less questions!  Could we have taken different tests?

Eric: There was a weird hippy-ish girl in the back of the room.  They asked if anyone had questions and she said "WHen do we get to help ourselves to the snacks?"  Trying to stand out I guess but she looked retarded.

[breinejm]

Eric: I am not smart in real life.  I am smart in things that don't matter.

Jess: Oh please!

Eric: On application I said I have a high IQ and they asked about it.

Jess: I hated the test.  I just got out of school and it felt like Math class all over again!

Eric: Weird questions. "Did you ever feel sexual desire for your mother?"  "Does you head feel separate from your body?"

Jess: some questions I did not understand. I did not answer all correctly.

Eric: Mine came back " you have a problem with authority."  You like attention but not over the top.

And then TBTFH.

Talking about "something you don't know about me"

Realizing it is 8 AM and they are going to get a wakeup call.

Jess is not tired and knows Eric better. Eric asking about her feelings. Jess says her mind is racing and trying to take it all in.

Jess wondering why they (BB) picked her to be on the show. At least you know. You had a lot of life experience.

Eric: I had good and bad and lived at my parents til I was 26!  Live and learn. You are doing incredibly well and I find you funny, smart, interesting.

Jess: don't stop!

Eric: I don't know what character you were supposed to be though.  Me either.

Jess: are you even Jewish?

Eric: Have you seen my nose?

Jess are you Real Jewish? Like do you go to church?

Eric: I told you everything about it.

[breinejm]

   Hi formernickfan. Thanks for the pics.  I cannot post them.  Plus the sound is going in and out!

Jess: how are you leaning?

Eric: it doesn't matter.

Jess: yes it does.  If it is 3-3!

Eric: We all know what we need to know about both of them.

Jess: I dunno.

Eric: in order to entertain the other thing, we need to approach people to see what we would get back.  What assurances do we have.  OTOH, never take any risks, but where does that get you? I have mixed feelings.

[RealityFreakWill]

Jessica and Eric are still up and have been talking all night but NO game talk....it's just general conversation. I guess they won't get hardly any sleep.

[breinejm]

Eric: it would definitely put a whole new spotlight on us.

Jess: I don't like the spotlight, well I do, but...

Eric: I can play devil's advocate to either side.

Jess: that's why I like to talk to you.

Eric: I am a terrible decision maker cuz I see both sides.  The whole picture. I have all these pros and cons in my head and it gets tricky.

Eric: Does Zach personally want to do this (take out ED I think)?

Jess: sit down with ED and see what he has to offer.  Eric: What does he have to offer?

[FNF]

Jess we are only at week 6 I just can't see working with dick and daniele
keeping d&d would be blowing the game

Eric it would put a whole new spot light on us

I am not quite awake getting what I can

Eric I am a terrible decision maker sees all pros and cons of every situation..

E.. were u under impression zach wanted to do this

J .. was trying to make it like he still wanted to take out ?? you should really sit down with dick and see what he has to offer

E what does he have to offer

J thinks the dinner was set up.. all strategy an game talk

E were you sad or dissapointed

J..he Zach.. knew about the Jen thing.. how Dustin was prob aligned with ? before the ceremony  (dick)

E  having a tough time figuring out who is trustworthy.. and none of them are.. figureing out who to work with... I told amber she was getting paranoid .. was poking fun at her

J... i don't kow why I get along with you

E yea u do

E .. amber and jam are totally locked in anyway.. zach u can do whatever you want with him  here is the straight question you can do whatever you want.. is there any value to forcing a tie.. (mentions he would vote to evict Dustin) thus 3/3

J.. can you guarantee it won't slip one way

E no we have to guarantee we have Jen's vote

J.. that means I would have to do it (break the tie)

Eric explaining how she would vote the person of her choice out in case of a tie

J ... saying neither one of the nominees have wronged her

E.. saying how Dick has wronged her.. came after her friends... insulted her breasts

E wondering if they should take a nap

J I am ready for a nap

I think they are going in and out talking about Dustin and trying to get him out due to AP.

Eric knows he can't push too hard, she will get suspicious, so they may be talking lightly about it.

It seemed like when he first mentioned it she was all gungho for it (based on what the updaters got and thank you for that), but now not so much.  I think today will be interesting based on the deals that can and will be made.

[breinejm]

Jess: He (ED) knew that Jen told me who Dustin was aligned with.  How could he know that?

Eric: Having a tough time figuring out who is trustworthy. Beginning to think none are, so who can help me today here and now? I told Amber she is getting paranoid, but not in a rude way.

(ok, 10 minutes behind.  I had to go for a sec)

Jess: I don;t know why I get along with you!

Eric: Yes you do, I am so cool!
