There are few things in life that bring me as much joy as lying, backstabbing, and unbridled competitiveness. That said, I feel really uncomfortable when all this cumulates and culminates in such ugly behavior.
Obviously the primary culprit I’m referring to is Dick, who I’ve renamed Mr. Crabby Pants. Yes, Mr. Crabby Pants was in fine form after losing Kail and the HoH competition. (Isn’t funny how Kail was once Dick’s number one target? He’s amassed so many enemies since then that she became his buddy by comparison.)
Feeling outfoxed, good ole Crabby resorted to his favorite insult, calling people liars. Yes, he was downright disgusted that the houseguests would lie to him. After all, who ever heard of people lying or a reality show? It’s unthinkable!
Jameka and Amber didn’t take kindly to being called deceitful, but that was just a warning shot. Soon he broke out the big guns and challenged the legitimacy of their faith.
Cue the pipe organ!
Like a bat out of hell, Jameka went after Dick—oops, Crabbers—telling him not to question the big man upstairs. From there it only got worse: Amber and Dick ridiculed the other’s (lack of) parenting skills; Dick told Amber she was too chubby to be a true drug addict; and—the piéce de résistance—Jameka insulted Dick’s mama!
The whole exchange was, as I said, ugly; but I applaud Jameka for being the first person to truly stand up to Mr. Crabby Pants.
While Crabbykins was waging war, Daniele decided to wallow, saying “I hate it here and I hate these people.” I feel somewhat sympathetic toward her; going after Eric made sense, but she didn’t have the numbers to pull it off. As a result, rather than being part of the big, cushy alliance, Daniele had to do something she must have hated: become BFFs with Jen. My how the mighty fall!
Unsurprisingly, Jessica nominated Dick and Daniele for eviction. It’s touching that Dick would sacrifice his game for that of his daughter, but I highly, highly doubt she’d do the same in return. Perhaps that’s the selfless love of a father, even if that father is a white-trash deadbeat (Dustin’s words, not mine).
As I’m sure you could guess, I really want Dick to leave this week. In fact, I want it so badly I might ask God to make it happen. Eh, then again, Amber and Jameka keep him (or Him, or her) busy enough as it is.
Other thoughts:
+ Jessica may be HoH, but she's just about as intimidating as a Powerpuff Girl.
+ Did anyone else hear Dick tell Jameka, “no one here appreciates that kind of language”? How absurd: he has said some of the most hateful things I’ve ever heard!
+ Amber, with her pencil-thin eyebrows and braided hair, has the oddest approach to praying ever. I think she confused God with Santa Claus or Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother.
+ Why did America select Dustin as Eric’s new target? Haven’t we made Eric suffer enough? Although the twist keeps things interesting, America is sabotaging Eric’s strategy. I think he might become an expatriate once the show ends.
+ During the food competition the team of Jameka, Amber, Zach, and Eric were finding far more $ cards than their opponents. Daniele concluded it was simply bad luck, but I’m sure Amber will back me up when I say it was God smiting her insolence.

Why did America pick Dustin as Eric's target? Well in part it is because on many message boards Eric is disliked more than Dick. A fact I find really deplorable because I have live feeds and hear how truly awful Dick is to others. I have heard many people, on message boards, suggest others vote in a way that will "out" Eric and thus get rid of him. Yet when you have people say why they hate Eric the answers range from his language (need I say Dick who ranks as most popular on the CBS web site), his wiggling eyebrow, he lies (like say everyone), and his nipple rings. If I hear one more word on his nipple rings I may feel the need to flame someone on those boards. Nipple rings do not speak to character. I will say that last night CBS edited Dick the closest to how he really is than ever before. What they left out and gave him an official warning for can not be aired. Which is also funny (in a not fair sense) because in season 2,with Justin, the audience was told Justin had been warned then he pulled the knife incident and was gone. In season 4 or 5 the audience was told Scott was warned, so being a conspiracy theorist I wonder why the audience had not been told of Dicks multiple warnings. There is no reality in reality TV and I suspect Dick will be there this coming Thursday because of his popular rating at the CBS site and for viewership ratings. I do admire Jameka's guts. Some have critcized Jameka's language but honestly I am religious but could not take Dick's verbal abuse without a few epitaphs myself.
I couldn't agree more. As someone who keeps up with Showtime and the live feeds I can confirm without a doubt that Dick is the most vile human being I have ever seen on TV. I don't understand how he can justify the way he talks to woman, bullies houseguests, and overall domineering attitude as gameplay, but the minute someone else does something in the name of gameplay, he has to call them out.
His call outs were funny at first and more tame, but then when he realized that he was popular and that the audience enjoyed it, he played it up to the hilt. He did it on last night's show...acting like he was going to make everyone miserable...are they not already?!
I am and I'm not even in the house!
I am now officially for Jessica...I thought she was petty at first because of that junk with Carol, but then I realized the producers are reaching a little bit this year...so I want her to win. I hate her the least...
