Big Brother 15 — Insert Your Own Title Here

Thanks lisa Marie for making this season bearable Oh, yeah! I’m #1!!!

Oh, dammitt!!!#2 Not bad for a first time blogger, bad typist!

Thank you Lisa Marie. We appreciate you. 🙂

P.S. God bless you.

Now I can’t count! See what this season has done to me?heheheh

Yay …. New post! Thank’ s Lisa! Back to my blogs. I need to get caught up! 🙂

Hi, LM, Macy1231231 (I’m gonna call you Macy, ok?)Jeanne, Joleemae, Jt(you REALLY ROCK when it comes to this blog and tying it all up in a nice neat pkg)Bobo, Shayne, PK and all the others whose names I can’t recall (mind-fart and giddiness for being one of the 1st.)
Like I said on the last pg., I’m dealing w/ a lot and the comoraderie here has really been comforting. This sprry group of HG’s has been something each and every one of us can agree on. And, w/ the crappy economy, the jokers in ALL offices that we refer to as politicians and this group, what’s not to laugh about?
Well, w/out getting even more long winded, I just want to thank All of you, whether I remembered to mention you by name or not, I did read your comment. So thanks a lot. and want to say #124 from the last page was an awesome link to (I think) BB2 w/ Dr Wil. Loved it!!! Watched nonstop. Plaese add link to any like it for me.
Thanks. And thanks Macy for keeping track above!

is it alright for me to shorten urs to LIZ – i am fine with plain ole macy!

@macy did you change the numbers in your name? I thought there was a 4 in there lol!

JANE – no they are the same – if i could change them – i would just omit all the numbers –

Thanks for all your hard work LM.

As for your question. Hmm? Fill the house with older, more mature but fun loving people, maybe? Remember when Evel Dick put the ponytail holder around the kitchen sprayer so that anybody who used it would get soaked?? We didn’t have any pranks like that this year–just out and out meanness. And how about the “ghetto slip and slide”? Instead, this year we got to watch them play hot potato for hours on end. There was a little bit of Simon Says, and gotta admit GM was an awesome caller.

But anyway, to make things better, I’d also design new comps; not just revamp all the old ones. I know space is limited, but creativity is the key. Get rid of the Have Nots; go back to food comps where the entire house works together and get rewarded or punished. Perhaps for Monday they could win steak, Tuesday could be PB&J, Wednesday they can be stuck with beans and rice (not too bad, unless you don’t like beans and rice), etc.; heck they can even keep slop if production felt the need, just have it as a punishment in the food comp for the entire house.

I’d also get rid of the automatic washing machine and dryer. Give them a wringer washer or even a wash board and a wringer. Make them hang their clothes out to dry. And to get rid of the piles and piles of towels for them to just throw around, give each HG 2 bath towels, a hand towel and a wash cloth for which they are responsible.

One of the things, on a game perspective, is for some HGs to show some leadership skills. Something that would the majority of the house, though, would be to assign each HG a job within the house. Or at least, to have each HG to volunteer for a chore. Instead of people being voted out due to not being liked, or because 1 or 2 people feel threatened by that person and can get a lot of people to vote with them; people will be voted out for not fulfilling their obligations. Though votes would not fall that way all the time; it would be interesting to watch it happen a few times and the reactions from other slackers who don’t want to help around the house to keep it clean and orderly. Since I don’t like living in filth and am not a very good cook but love to eat; if I were in that house and an early HOH, my targets would be those who sit around, never a worker-bee.

And I’m sorry, but I am a huge Evel Dick supporter, I loved him, and would LOVE to see him in the house with Amanda!

What is the big deal about being first? I don’t get it!!

I am looking forward to Survivor! This is going to be an interesting one! I hope! 😉

@Chelle at least the twist is interesting, so there’s hope! Survivor Blog is good too. There’s more game talk.

It’s easy to say …be more selective of the hg…but there’s no way to tell what kind of person or personality one has just by a short interview. Its a little harsh to blame the cbs crew for these lousy guests. I personally can’t stand the three that are left and hate that two of them will receive money for their disgusting behavior.

Sharon, I love the idea of America voting. You hit the nail on the head

So many saying this was the worst season ever. Well, Big Brother, like massages and pizza, is good even when bad. We all watched and were entertained!
I do think they need to change up the competitions. When the houseguests know which comp is coming next, it just doesn’t seem right. I would like to see an older contestant version.

LM, as always you are right on. Loved the Anemic Vampire was so perfect.

Becky you pretty much said what we talked about before. Give the HGs more to do so they don’t loaf around all the time and create showmances to further their careers. Really, that works?

@Lizzie, you have been a great contributor to this blog so I hope you continue. I was one of the first to talk with you and you’re story is remarkable. Losing a loved one so close is too difficult to describe but I know exactly what you mean and how you might feel. Are you the twin or the mother? You said something about twin daughters. However, on another note, some of the things that have gone on here for years between some of the bloggers is difficult to understand by a newbie. Just ignore it and they’ll work it out. It’s the best solution to simply stay out of it.

@Jeanne, from the last post, you were never criticized for saying God Bless. All I said was that is it offensive to some. So that you understand, I have a friend in Jesus too, but I don’t say God Bless to everyone everywhere because it is truly offensive to some. That’s all I said. I find it kinder to not offend people if I know I’m doing something that offends them.

@Linda
Wasn’t entertained much , more disgusted.

We need to have America Vote to evict once per season.
HGs play in every POV
We need varied ages
Less production interference
People who want to play and not OD on Xanax
New comps so it’s unexpected
No relatives of former players please!

is it over yet…next yrs show needs to be a good one or the curtin will come down for the last time…and there will not be a BB 17…bb16 NEEDS TO BE A SHOW STOPPER…I STILL SAY THAT AMERICA SHOULD GET TO VOTE FOR 90 DAYS…FROMA GROUP OF 32 PAST HOUSE GUEST SINCE BB1 TO CURRENT…BUT NO MORE THAN 2 FROM ANY YR…BRING THE TOP 16 BACK these folks should know how to play the game and the ratings shoudl be sky high…DICK vs Amanda…Chicken George vs Rachel…Dr Will vs Dan…a good old BATTLE ROYAL…OH BY THE WAY…LET’S ALL SAY ADDIOS TO Allyson Grodner…thanks for destroying a good show…

In God we trust,is still on our money.Hmmm. What’s with that. When I go shopping,I always thank the person waiting on me, and say God bless you.I always get a smile or a thank you. God bless America. We are still one nation under God,last time I heard. 😉

@Lizzie I concur. There are different forums for a lot of the talk on here, not just the arguing. Most of us has made those forums. I suggest the rest swap emails and do the same. I am glad you are not trying to argue because i’ve been over it. Until someone starts again. And I truly am sorry for your loss, thats really a tragedy. I’ve lost a child at a young age and have always wondered how people deal with a grown child after all those years of bonding. I give you great respect for that. Nobody understands that loss unless youve been there.

Haha, i didn’t know it is a Gravatar, I thought they were Avatars! Talk about out of the loop, I must’ve made a left somewhere – and didn’t even know it.

I don’t want to see an all stars of the same old bunch that they typically go to. If anything along those lines I’d like to see a season of the first few out to get a decent shot. I mean Annie, Jodi and Nick could have been awesome if given a chance, we just don’t know really. And the thing I’ve noticed most missing this season is chemistry and fun! I don’t see any life long friendships developing here and there was just such a mean spirit to everything. Get rid of have nots, go back to having the house work together for food, have them do team building challenges, whatever. This is supposed to be summer fun fluff and we have steadily lost that.

@Lizzie.. my heart goes out to you. I lost my toddler daughter over 20 years ago very suddenly as well. I won’t tell you it gets better, but you will find managing the grief does. I’ll be keeping you in my heart.

@kimjmj my heart goes out to you as well. I get the grief in spurts and as time goes on it is further and further apart. Your right, you learn how to manage.

Hugs Jane. It’s a club none of us wanted to join but we here for each other.

Lots of love to all of you that have gone through that loss!! My friend has a great blog and if you request she will send you a beautiful handmade handkerchief called ‘”For your Tears”… I passed mine down to another friend who lost a child, and she passed it on… Here’s the blog page: http://wwwforyourtears.blogspot.com/

Big Brother 15 — Insert Your Own Title Here (A slow death by boredom!)

I’d like to see zero tolerance for bullying and racist remarks. I’d have runner up houseguests ready to replace those ejected or give the houseguests a free week filled with competitions to keep the show on schedule after someone is ejected. I would continue MVP for those bullied, verbally abused and America. I have enjoyed the comments. Thank you Marie.

Hey Bobo, good to see you today! Take care my friend and enjoy your day!!

@Bobo Always!

holy yesus as Kanye would say – I must admit that I do have the propensity to speak like a truck driver myself; however, watching the BBAD from last night WOW!!! I feel that perhaps Andy has some sort of misplaced feelings, like maybe he wishes he was Elissa and could wear her glittery clothes, high heels, and false eyelashes. His, as well as GM and Spencer’s obsession with talking about her in such derogatory terms and so often leads me to believe that perhaps they need some counseling. The things they said about her last night were so disgusting, even I would not repeat them, I had to shut off the TV. It’s not a social experiment when you allow a woman to be maligned like that, its insulting to all women. Where was GM and her big mouth?, laughing and contributing.

LM I agree that BB 9 was the worst ever. But this one was pretty disgusting. It got so old watching it be a unanimous vote every stinking time. I also hated the fact that Elissa got the MVP every time America voted for an MVP rather than the nominee for eviction.

Now, in my infinite wisdom, I say they need some new comps and not just twists on the old ones. They need some house guests that are more of a variety. A variety in age and background. Both the men and the women. I do not like the idea that the girls were all wannabe beauty queens. Puhleeze. Too much jealousy rather than intelligence being thrown around. Please no stupid returning house guests nor their family. We need all new people and ones who actually WANT to be members and not just get their cute little faces and bodies on TV. Well, that’s my stance for anybody who cares. LOL

This is what I was trying to explain earlier. As we “older” (ahem) bloggers have been here for years, some since BB 7 when the blog started, we got to know each other pretty well, including the incidents that we’ve all prayed for each other – death, cancer, car accidents, brain surgery, etc. We also know our shortcomings and we jab at each other on occassion and we’ll protect each other when needed. We try to let everyone solve their own issues though. We always welcome new bloggers as it’s important to always have differing opinions. We don’t beat anyone up for say, loving Spencer. If you like him, well, good for you. yuk 🙂 We may disagree but it’s not worth arguing about.

The one thing about this blog is that it’s kinder than so many others out there. I’ve seen them and they can be vicious. We stay away from politics and religion. Both big no nos because they can cause controversy. Otherwise, we pretty much respect each other. We have learned when we’re being fooled by a newbie though as we have been in the past. Sometimes they aren’t who they say they are. Eventually they go away and we just keep on keepin on with our blog.

Ok, done with the philosophical stuff. Just had to explain this because there are so many who don’t understand where this blog has been.

Lisa Marie you rock! I for one look forward to hearing anything about our oh so wonderful HGs this year if you find anything. Mostly looking forward to Survivor and you commenting as a blogger. Of course, we know you will be outlining the weekly adventures on your twitter page too.

Btw where was dr will last night??

I like all the ideas mentioned above. I missed the bean bag toss game they always had before. Also, these were the laziest HG’s ever. Besides Elissa, Helen and Howard, you never saw any of them running, walking, or doing anything to help their bodies stay strong. I didn’t have the live feeds so maybe I missed some exercise. They should have a mandatory exercise session every morning when they get up, not as a punishment but to keep them fit. Would be nice to see no smoking in BB. Maybe instead of no floaters, they could stress healthy guests. Oh yeah! The preparation for comps and lock downs took too much time. And a wedding in the back yard during production was too much to ask us to endure, much less the HG’s.

joleemae, figure it out, the rest of us did! I’m sure you have your friends private e-mail addy’s, start there. I understand you want help but I and others feel like you want us to hold your hand thru any new process and we all have our own things to deal with!

I have a great idea for BB16. Put all the players in a safe house or pre BB house. Make them complete to get into the BB house. Comps like,best cook, best dishwasher, best at vaacuming, people skills a great accent. No one picking at body parts or vulgar language. Just a thought. 😉

Holly 😉

I love the idea of no smoking – earning food – no chores, no food – we the audience decide if they get alcohol, or who gets alcohol, or who is a have or have not – maybe everyone cleans the house to get alcohol – no more anxiety meds – all of us have anxiety, most of us, just “deal with it” – if you have that bad of anxiety at 23, maybe you don’t need to be locked in a house with people who don’t care about you – I would be so embarrassed if my house looked like theirs – they have no pride in themselves – it’s annoying to watch grown ups treating someone’s house like that – they are all slob -kabobs, except for Helen and Elissa – yeah, okay so I’m a neat freak – I’d need Xanax to tolerate the ball juggling and booger picking

Starfish, Thank you for the info! 🙂

Holly, I am not a needy person, just trying to get along! Sorry!

No Twinsies, I am just fed up with you! I am rarely commenting as I hear about it from my friends who are here in OUR PRIVATE CHAT ROOM!! A person can only take so much of you newbies before they crack!

okay I really have to get off here before my blood pressure goes any higher. Peace to my peeps! To the rest, try and assimilate to your environment!

FISH season 9 to me was so out there like a train wreck – i watched it all! he he

@Holly, yes please no blood pressure problems. I also know you don’t mean all newbies are bothering you. We have a lot of wonderful new bloggers on the blog this year and hopefully, we’ll see them next year. You all know who you are.

I think the problem being that some things were pushed down our throats and some of us have shorter throats than others so, hence, the backlash. 😯 Seems like that problem has gone away and we can all move forward. Right 😕 ❓

@Macy, when you say just FISH all by itself, some people think you mean there’s fish on the live feeds. We went through that the other day with a few folks. So funny though. 😆 Some are using *fish or SF makes no never mind to me. 😀

Holly, I am truly trying to understand where you are coming from. Did you not see all of the “religious” blogs on here when we found out about Brittany’ s little baby girl? Faith Isn’t like a water fountain that you can turn off and on. I’m sorry if you don’t understand that. Maybe it would be good if when you see “Joleemae” just pass on by! Good for you and great for me. Stay supple! 🙂

@Caprice welcome! Blog Posts is the correct term for the Moderator (Lisa Marie), and Comments is correct for all of us responding.

joleemae, it seems that you think you can not only preach to us whether we want it or not but now it appears that you think you can tell me what to do. You CANNOT! If you are trying to spread the “word” you are making it a four letter one! Nobody wants to hear your CRAP. This is a BLOG, not church!!! If I want to hear about GOD I will go to the church of my choice! CAN YOU PLEASE STFU?!?!?!

Hey Starfish…Jane !♥ Thanks for saying Hi to Me! All the rest of you 😛 Just Kidding!!!!! I just watch the show… They are so lame….! Anyway good to see you all! I have been catching up on the the comments & Some TV 😆 Things smell great in the kitchen tonight! The love of my life is making one of my Favorites…. what might that be “Chili” not sure if that is spieled right ? So what did I say to you all? Play Nice ! So how is that going? Thanks Lisa♥ & thank all of you for your comments, I’ll Be Back!………………. …………………….

I really hope GM wins part three tat wold be the best thig ever. ugh this season has turned green ugh………next year they should still have more people and maybe get america to vote once in a while

Did anyone else hear that there is going to be a big twist on the finale??????

Caprice.I also thought Will was going to be there last night. 🙁 .I also agree that an older group of HGs would be fun to watch. I have 5 daughter’s in their 50’s that would give this season’s group a run for their money. I am looking forward to Wednesday night. Byeee

holly! 😳 …………….
Tell us how you really feel!

Ode to Big Brother

Big Brother season 15
Full of some shi..y jive
Fighting and loving all in one show
Oh what a way to watch a show

Big Brother is a micro society
Of the American community
Racism, homo hate and economic put downs

It is good we see the inner heart of America ‘s
Head
If you think people are not similar to these
House guest
Wake up because you appear to be dead

Good bye to the crappy players who floated
By
Andy will be winner
Boy it makes me want to die

Whoops! I forgot! I agree that there would be fireworks btw Evil Dick and Amanda, but I would hate in any way for her to be rewarded for her awful behavior. She would be getting money and attn for every episode she lasted. That would amount, to me, to rewarding what is lowest and most loathsome in the human race. I would refuse to watch if she were to be returned for any reason.

I’d like to see the “have nots” discontinued. I like it better when they all worked together to get the menu they wanted. That way too, they could quickly identify those who were true competitors.

I don’t subscribe to BBAD so I haven’t heard the stunningly negative remarks about Elissa. I’m sure she didn’t earn them – those remarks must tell more about the class of the ones making them than the one to whom they are directed!

I don’t think there’s a snowballs chance in hell that Amanda would even try to compete with ED. She’s a bully and they don’t do well when pushed, they lose control of themselves. We saw that this year for sure. ED would eat her for dinner. justasayin. 😆

I agree with everyone, get rid of the have nots. Useless. Bring back food comps and things the HGs have to do as teams or as a group to keep their idle bodies and mouths busy. Plus all the other things you guys have mentioned. CBS has to do something.

Shout out to LM,,,,,, I wish I could buy you a drink

Hpr56 I agree. I would of liked to see more of the Jury house.

Sorry my previous comment was soooo long….

But ….One more thing….

I agree with most of you — get rid of “have-nots” and return to the food comps

I would not give Amanda or Evil Dick more time on BB. Amanda while being over the top obnoxious, ED was 10 times worse. I was watching some of the utube videos of his season and he was marching through the house, spuing his foul language, intimidating the HG’ s and threw a cup of icetea on top of a HG’ s head. He should have been called to the DR and escorted out the back door! Had enough of both of them! IMHO 🙂

My Bella Me!!!♥ I liked what you said! very cool!

wow they are up on the feeds…Andy just anyone into Arts & Crafts must be Gay…WHAT????? I am an Artest! What a little S………….

Watching these three is just so bad!!!!!

Any time Bella …………………

You always have an invite! Starfish But it may have to be reheated! 😆

BOBO u too

ciao Bobo

Dancing With the Stars starts tonight! I’m all there! Happy blogging friends!

So many of us have wanted to see more of the jury house for the last few seasons but they aren’t showing us much. We used to see a bit of some of the HGs entering the jury house but no more. This year that would have been especially fun to watch. Maybe CBS is doing a show of the BB15 jury house. Now that would be entertaining.

Someone said (one of the twins?) that ED was worse than Amanda. The difference in the two as I see it is that Amanda was mean and wanted to demean people more than ED. To me he was obnoxious, true, but he did it with a smile on his face, I loved to hate him and yes, he was horrible but somehow funny to me. Whereas Amanda was actually vicious about it and wanted to break someone’s neck. That’s how I saw them. As for ED dumping his drink on Jen, that was way out of line and had it been anyone else, they may have been evicted. CBS is in it to make money and since he didn’t physically hurt her, they let it go. They have thrown out people for more egregious behavior that might do physical harm.

OK, Bobo & Macy, I’ll bring the wine. woohoo

DWTS, another great show I love to watch. Thanks for the reminder joleemae. Rhoda is on and she has some story going on in her life and it’s life threatening. Sorry, I can’t think of her real name and that’s happening more often. Ugh Probably half of you don’t know who Rhoda is.

*fish….one question for you…………. WHY?

Starfish, just checked my TV Guide. Valerie Harper played Rhoda. Enjoy DWTS! 🙂

b4 i forget I just wanted to say bb9 when adam won i wanted to hurl. hated it then….have not really laughed and had fun watching bb except when Will played…and i loved Jeff and Jordan…any other time it was just me………watching tv while doing something else at the same time….painting…sewing…something to keep me from becoming too bored. NOW i’ll go back and skim this blog……………Great job LISA….I agree with all you said up there..lol..

Tendr….I think you really do need to read the comments.

Tense, I’ve missed you. 😉

oh yeah, im 156

Tendr, I like your name! I can relate to the “Tense” part. Have a relaxed, evening. Just watched Dancing With the Stars. Best opening season ever!!! 🙂

i agree with becky #22……..ok i’m going to go read more. last night i babysat a one mo. old…..didn’t even try to mess with being online….
@Chelle..i’m not a ‘dick’ lover…..as in e.d. at least..well..ok i’m not going there but i’d like to see him and amanda on survivor at the same time….all that smoking they’d most likely be off the show….the first week. but it’d have my attention.
@Liz….that shooting was horrible news. I was surprised i didn’t see anything on tv about it and had to look online to hear about it. so sad.
@sylvie…i have said this too….many yrs in a row….they need more ppl over 30 in the house..in fact i’d like to see one with everyone over 40 just once….
i’ve read enough. don’t care who i piss off when i talk about God. Other’s talk about tolerance and free speech and there’s a lot of stuff said here i have zero interest in so if you don’t want to see the three letter’s G O D in someone’s post, chill and zip by…
i’m gonna go spend a few min with my husband who i thank GOD that he accepts me as i am and i don’t have to watch what i talk about instead of fighting here and wasting so much time.
Lisa, i loved your blogging and hope I see you in survivor’s blog….i need a laff…thinking about my dad……..have probs of my own.
Praying to , yep, GOD for Tilly to get well…..when i was four and in the hospital having brain surgery…after a car accident i remember a baby barely able to stand…next to me in his bed with cancer…and he didn’t live…so it’s a hard fight for a tiny little body.
nite…………………………………………………………….we ok now MOM?

God bless you Tendr! I like the way you think. Have a good evening friend. 🙂 Will keep your father in our thoughts and prayers.

BBAD was not worth watching tonight. So off to bed. Nitey nite. 😉

I couldn’t agree more with you, Bella! (#113)

I don’t particularly like Elissa, but comparatively, she’s at the top, for me. In any competition with “normal” folks, I’d find her puzzling – terribly so. The degree of contempt for her, as expressed by BBAD, is surprising to me.

Since you’re all stating what you would like, wouldn’t like mentioned on this blog – I want to get my two cents in: I want all mention of delicious, homecooked, aromatic, food discontinued immediately! I’ve finished day one of my diet successfully – and now, after reading all your remarks about food, your dinners, what is stewing on your stoves and baking in your ovens – even though it’s almost 10 p.m. I’m going to finish this post and then raid the cupboards for anything more interesting and more tasty than raw carrots!

Just kidding – post on any subject you like – if I see food, I’ll just go into skim mode!

Bleh

Terry,interesting concept!

How about, America nominates the HG for eviction. That way the HG might get an idea of who we like.

Caprice, I am a professonal dieter. Been dieting over 60 years. LOL Good luck. I do love Carrot sticks.

Terry… That’s a great idea… except CBS wouldn’t make any money on the Live Feeds, because nobody would buy them to watch your version… at least none of the people here. What would they bitch about?

@JT & Aggie, me too! Bleh!

Holly, who made you HOH for BBBloggers? I have really tried to be sensitive to all of you but you are taking it to a whole different level. I was not as offended by Kevin, who explained his language as you deliberately trying to cause dissention. Everybody should be welcome here as long as it is a public blog site. Stay supple!
