Toga! Toga! Toga!
Tonight's show was mediocre all considering. There just haven't been any fireworks or scheming going on in the house lately so they didn't have any of that kind of drama to focus on.
One of the funniest segments tonight was the one where Amber didn't know what certain words mean. Words such as: charismatic, ridicule, superficial, integrity, backdoor, outed, sub-alliance, perceived, implication, and peanut gallery. I thought it was funny when Dick said in the DR that he'd be surprised if Amber's vocabulary was higher than her 8-year-old's. The funniest part was when Amber asked Jameka what 'peanut gallery' means and Jameka said she didn't know if it was the fact that he (whoever he is) eats peanuts, and Amber went oooh. CBS inserted a laughing track right after that. It was hilarious!!!
The beer pong segment served its purpose in two ways. It allowed us to see how good Eric looks in women's clothing (Jen's booty shorts and Jess' black and white checked dress) and set us up for the food competition called Slop Pong where they were all dressed in togas. Of we course we know that the red team won and the blue team lost so that meant Amber and Jameka would be on slop for the week along with Jen who still has two weeks of slop from her wager in that POV competition awhile back. But, both teams landed their giant ping pong ball (volleyball) in the center 'feast' cup (barrell) so everybody won a night of eating - including Jen.
After the food competition, they came in to the smaller table in the kitchen so there was that little bit on the show. Then there was a cute Jessica and Eric segment where Jess busted herself to Dick about Julie Chen asking her about her feelings towards Eric on Thursday's show. Then we got to see Eric get his assignment from America and America voted for Eric to get Amber nominated. CBS showed us Eric up in the HOH room with Daniele and Dick talking about putting Amber up on the block if it was only as a pawn.
And then, we got to see Eric's next America's Player assignment. "Eric is working for you America and it's time to tell him what to do. America's Player is going to share a special moment with another houseguest. To whom should Eric give this childhood woobie?" OMG! Hehehehe. His 'woobie' is a stuffed dog. Hehehehehe. You can vote by clicking on this link. I am definitely voting all 10 times for it to be Jessica!!!
The show ended with the nomination ceremony of course where Amber and Jameka were nominated. Daniele's speech to them saying that they were both liked by everybody in the house and how she thought she wouldn't win if she was up against one of them in the final two was a good one I thought. And then we got final clips from the DR after nominations. God told Amber she's going to win the POV by the way.
So what did y'all think of the show overall tonight? What did you think of Amber's 'word' segment? Who are you going to vote for Eric to give his woobie to? Did you have some sort of woobie growing up? LMAO

I thought it was hilarious when Amber didn't know what outed & backdoored meant.

Have a good evening all.....

Did I have a woobie? Hmmmm.....I had a wooden Howdy Doody doll, my mom found at a yard sale somewhere, that I named Billy. He was my best friend for years. I finally gave him up once my second wife shared her discomfort with sleeping with two "woodies" in the bed...The last six months have been rough without him. Thank God for counseling.
I want Eric to give the woobie to Dick. Can you imagine the hilarity?
Posted by: Chuck at August 19, 2007 06:36 PM
Please do not vote for Jessica that Eric give his "Woobie" to. Very predictable, very vanilla and not very entertaining.
He'll give it her, she will say "awwwwww" and that will be that.
How funny would it be to see Eric give that to Dick?
Posted by: Eric at August 19, 2007 06:36 PM
Amber is such a dingbat!!! Is she really that stupid or do you think that is an act? Well, I voted for Jessica for Eric to give his woobie to. And by the way, what in the world is a woobie?????????
Posted by: Chris at August 19, 2007 06:37 PM
Woobie = Childhood blanket, security blacket, ect
Posted by: DrMagicFingers at August 19, 2007 06:46 PM
I voted for dick to get the woobie. At first I thought jesica,but yeah, way to predictable. Dick is the best choice for a laugh.
Posted by: allen at August 19, 2007 06:47 PM
Thanks Dr.MagicFingers!! I did have a dolly that sneezed when I pushed on her stomach. lolololo Her name was Baby Sue. I took her everywhere!!! I tried to put mascara on her one time with a black magic marker. lololo She had two black eyes when I was done with her.

Personally, I think Amber is delusional. I don't think GOD told her anything about winning a POV (clearly He didn't since she didn't win it) comp that week, and I definitely don't think He told her that she and Jameka would be the final 2. I think people want things so badly sometimes to be a certain way, and so they believe God tells them something...to me, she has set herself up for disappointment.
As far as the woobie goes, yep, I voted all 10 votes to Ms. Jessica. I think that would be SOOOOO adorable LOL!
Posted by: beifiori at August 19, 2007 07:11 PM
Right now Eric is on "my" good side, so I'll vote to have him give the woobie to Jessica. Pretty lame task though. CBS is really trying to keep his antics to a minimum right now it seems.
I never had a woobie, or anything like that. Keeping it, and taking it into the BB house (when you are a male in your late 20's) seems more than strange.
If he gave it to Zach, that would be a good laugh. Nah .... let him give it to his girl.
Posted by: Shamrock at August 19, 2007 07:31 PM
I think Dick should get the woobie!! Wouldn't that be soo funny!
Posted by: Stacy at August 19, 2007 07:49 PM
I am with Chuck! I want the woobie to go to Evil Dick!!!!! That would take the cake!!!
Posted by: Colleen at August 19, 2007 07:56 PM
I am with chuck!! I think it would be so funny. Giving it to Jessica is to romantic. This is not a dating game. It is bb8 expect the unexpected. Dick sure would not expect that.lol
Posted by: Mary at August 19, 2007 07:59 PM
I voted 10 times for Eric to give his woobie to Dick! HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa!!
Posted by: Rose at August 19, 2007 08:05 PM
Ha ha... great idea! I just voted ten times for Dick. :)
I thought the word segment was fun, but it made me feel bad for disliking Amber as much as I do. Now it's kind of like not liking the handicapped kid in school--it just seems mean. :P
Posted by: Erica at August 19, 2007 08:08 PM
Eric's Woobie probably has a lot of sentimental value to him. To give it to anyone but Jess would be cruel. We don't need an extra laugh bad enough to give it to Dick or anyone else. I had a teddy bear that I slept with until I was seven years old. I called it Teddy LOL.
I feel a little sorry for Amber. Obviously she has few mental skills and it's beginning to be sad to be picking on her now like a bully abusing the disabled because they're different. That doesn't mean she should not be voted out. Thanks again for keeping us entertained HD.
Posted by: absolon at August 19, 2007 08:11 PM
BTW. Do you know where Dani and Amber went on their night out?
From HD - They haven't had their trip yet.
Posted by: absolon at August 19, 2007 08:22 PM
Give the Woobie to Jessica!! I am a teacher, let me just say I did not teach Amber.
Posted by: MissTitan at August 19, 2007 08:25 PM
In this life, You can never get enough laughter, therefore all of my 10 votes is for Dick.
Ps. After getting my fill of laughs, i did feel sorry for Amber. But if she did go this week,no skin of my nose. But i do think the smarter move is too get rid of Jen.
Posted by: ALI at August 19, 2007 08:36 PM
I voted for Eric to give his woobie to Zach.
As for Amber's vocabulary, or lack thereof, if I can't say something nice (and I can't), I'm not saying anything at all.
Posted by: CanFan at August 19, 2007 08:44 PM
Okay, 2 questions. First, do y'all really think CBS will let Eric give his Woobie to Jess? I honestly think THEY decide some of these things for ratings. (Sorry CBS but you guys are kind of sketchy?!?!) I hope that's not the case, though! Second, does anyone out there know how many tasks Eric has completed?
Posted by: Lee at August 19, 2007 08:53 PM
I voted for him to give it to Jess!
But I was wondering, how are they going to explain his "woobie" all of a sudden coming into the house??
This weeks show actually made me laugh. I can't stand Amber and CBS making her look stupid just made my day.
Posted by: Lauren at August 19, 2007 09:29 PM
Absolon, I would say the "woobie" probably came from a prop dept from CBS. Nothing sentimental at all. I could be wrong.
Isn't funny how the Editing of person or situation can totally change our perception of somebody. I to started to think poor little Amber but I have seen her true colors come out time and time again on the feeds.
Posted by: sherri at August 19, 2007 09:31 PM
Is it just me or does Jen's hair look much blacker tonight? I'm watching her now on BBAD. Was a BB dye job covered on the live feeds?
Posted by: Chuck at August 19, 2007 09:44 PM
I voted for Eric to give his "woobie" to Dani.
Eric needs to ingratiate himself more with Dani.
Dani is sad tonight and needs something to help her cheer up.
Posted by: G3S3B at August 19, 2007 10:01 PM
Eric has been trying sooooo hard for us lately - why would we all try to sabotage his game by making him give his woobie to Dick?
Let him give it to Jessica and let them enjoy a moment.
As for Amber and her poor vocabulary - has it occured to anyone else that she has suffered some brain damage from her drug and alcohol use/abuse. I'm not saying that she was the brightest penny in the first place......
Posted by: Linda at August 20, 2007 12:24 AM
Did anyone catch Dick calling out Kail as a multi-business owner? I thought it was really weird that Dick hit that nail directly on the head, which leads me to believe there's another twist to come. They need it because this season is boring by far.
BTW if Whamber stays Eric should give the woobie to her she f*ing needs it.
Posted by: david at August 20, 2007 12:31 AM
Poor Amber. Yes, I am serious. Kids who grow up without a vocabulary have parents/adults in their lives who do not speak to them with an extensive vocabulary. Its not her fault. Cut her a break on this one. Thank your mother right NOW for speaking to you with correct grammar and adult vocabulary.
My childhood "woobie" was a stuffed donkey. I had surgery at age 3 and they gave it to me at the hospital. I pulled out the strings of his tail over the years. He cowered with me under the covers when we were scared.
Posted by: Lynn at August 20, 2007 06:22 AM
I loved the Amber word segment. And the music on the last one almost had me rolling on the floor. Seriously now, I have never seen anyone with a more vacent expresion on there face than Amber. I'm not even sure the lights are on sometimes. Even after the explaination of "outed" she was sitll "I don't get it". And Chuck - I think you might have to go in and explain to both Jameka and Amber about the peanut gallery. Bring along the Howdy Doody doll as a nice prop. You see girls, once upon a time there was this TV show and....
I thought the "Woobie" task was dumb. But if I was to vote on it I would be split between Zach and Jen. I can imagine the look on Zach's face when presented with a Woobie. Pst dude, you are really in my alliance and to seal the deal, here is my woobie. If I go back on my word you get to keep it. I swear on my woobie. And Jen, well that would add a little twist to the Jessica romance. I nice date with Jen and the presentation of woobie. lol!

Well Lynn, I hate to tell you that vocabulary is not always linked to the parents. My parents are immigrants from Italy who do not speak or write English very well. My vocabulary came from school so I don't think that's the case with Amber. I do think that it could have something to do with her drug use. Any case, it's sad.
Posted by: Roz at August 20, 2007 07:28 AM
I'd guess that given Amber's post-Dustin edits that she's toast come Thursday. FINALLY!
Jess is going to be so pissed off when she learns Eric's identity as AP and our role in their friendship.
Posted by: BJ at August 20, 2007 07:54 AM
Pretty funny if Jess ends up with Woobie and the next time she gets miffed Woobie is at the bottom of the pool. I know I'm sick....
Posted by: Deb at August 20, 2007 08:08 AM
verity: I guarantee Jam doesn't need any explanation of the term. The "peanut gallery" was a common racial slur used to describe the segregated balcony seating in theaters, targeting Puerto Ricans and African-Americans.
Howdy Doody defined "peanut" to describe the kiddies in the audience, playing on the vaudeville tradition of a rowdy, cheering audience.
The term originated in the days of vaudeville as a nickname for the cheapest seats in the theater; the cheapest snack served at the theater would often be peanuts, which the patrons would sometimes throw at the performers on stage to signify their disapproval.
A generation of white kiddies grew up not realizing the meaning of the term for their black peers. We've come a long way since the 50's.
Posted by: BJ at August 20, 2007 08:26 AM
Unstable Whamber actually spoke 3 or 4 times without turning on the tears. That's a record for her!
Posted by: Piehead at August 20, 2007 09:43 AM
I think that just as eric is paid to complete tasks, Amber is paid to cry and Dick is paid to be mean.
Posted by: KAT at August 20, 2007 11:30 AM
So much for Daniele's deal with Jen. I hope her betrayal shows her fans that she is a liar and an user. Daniele's attitude is boring and a waste of my tv and livefeed time. And age has nothing to do with it. I know a lot of teenagers and young adults more mature and responsibilty, for their actions/behavior. She kept telling Dick she wasn't that girl anymore from 2-3 years ago but I think she is. And her constant wearing of Nick's bandana is not going to make Kris feel her love, she blew it and messed him over on public TV, and now she has to grow up and deal with it.
Posted by: Jaguarempress at August 20, 2007 12:30 PM
You all have no imagination. Giving the woobie to Dick or Zach would look stupid. Giving it to Jess is too predictable and boring.
He should give it to Jen and that would really mess with the other HGs heads.
Why is it always that women hate Danielle?
Its so sad seeing Jen go. I really hate both Amber and Jameka and wanted one of them to leave this week.
Posted by: RB at August 20, 2007 03:12 PM
Does anyone realize Jen is losing it? She is stashing stuff all over the house in trash bags and I just watched Jen destroying 4 cartons of Dick's cigarettes. They then called her into the DR.
