Hello. On the one hand, I like Tupac. On the other, one of my favorite songs is "Bad Day," and all my favorite alcoholic drinks sound like I discovered them at a meeting of the I'm Allergic To Anything Genuinely Bad-Ass Society.

She sure has an extensive list of favorites. I thought that the idea of favorites is that you have one or two favorite foods, actors or bands.
She has no less than 19 favorite foods, including those all encompassing categories of fruit, vegetables, cereal and soup.

Does bizarre high-fiber, gloppy oatmeal fall under the cereal category? Because if so, I imagine she'll be quote happy in the BB house.

Not to mention it's also carb-heavy. It's not going to be a pretty sight (but entertaining to us) when she has to go on PB&J diet. Can't wait.
Yes, she also looks way older than 27, there must be a gene in these women that predisposes them to premature aging and wanting to become reality show whores.

I'm not sure if it's some sort of optical illusion created by her Winehousian hair, but damn she looks like she has a lot of forehead.

Sounds about right. What've you got?
I'm surprised to find that I kind of like her. That will change rapidly if she starts whining about missing her kid the whole time she's on the completely optional game show. Until such event, or a reasonable facsimile thereof, I'll be rooting for her to win the money if only to pay for new eyebrows. Forehead Alopecia: the Silent Uglifier.

The beverage category looked as if it was just copied from a menu.
All I could think of when I looked at her was, "What the hell did she do with her hair?" So I have no other opinion on her yet.

Aaand, there's the mother card. Somehow, I bet that card is going to be played all over the place now that she's nominated. And I hate her hair, because my hair was that thick, and long, and curly, and over-processed and wretched in highschool, and I'm still recovering.

The way she played it was so tacky, too. She took it a step beyond the usual "I'm only here to help my family, because a 3-month game show is clearly the best way to support them" crap, to actually being offended about being nominated because she's a parent. I'd like to reiterate the poster in the episode thread who cited Brittany from S4 of Top Model: "We got it. You have a kid. Next."

After being largely responsible for the food competition, you think Kail would've left her off the block. Sheesh.
Nich337
Jul 9, 2007 @ 9:00 am
But that's the thing--in the end, nominations are really, really not about competitions. And Kail's DR at the end of the episode makes me think she has more logical reason for putting up Amber, e.g. possibly getting rid of the other mom in order to not have to compete with somebody with whom others might sympathize. Regardless of her performance in competitions & her parental status, Amber is fair game to be nominated if she's not HOH.

One thing about Amber that confuses me is that she plays the "poor" card but she's a cocktail waitress in Las Vegas. All the "behind the scenes" Vegas shows I've seen indicate that a decent cocktail waitress in any one of the strip casinos can make six-figures easily.

I'd rather see Amber go instead of Carol. I'd like Carol to stick around and cause trouble with Jessica. Amber annoys me. The poodle hair bugs. And the way she instantly dissolved into full out sobbing upon nomination is strange. She got nominated, then the camera cut away, she was in full tears in the DR, and then we saw a clip of her getting up from the table just after getting nominated and she had broken down so quickly.
I never get why people cry so much when getting nominated. Especially in the first week. Nobody really knows each other and it's so soon to take things so personally.

I would absolutely cry if I were nominated the first week, especially if I felt I hadn't really done anything to warrant being nominated. I guess being first eliminated from the endurance comp is valid justification, but I imagine it would hurt even more because she didn't actually do anything to offend anyone or appear to be a threat -- like in some past seasons. Just think, you have gone through the rigorous process of becoming a finalist and then finally being chosen; you've made arrangements to be away from work/have bills paid for up to 3 months; in the case of Amber, she has secured childcare as well. I can only imagine how awful it must feel to have your dreams crushed by not only being one of the first two nominated but the real possibility of actually being evicted first.
I agree that Amber would be the wisest choice for eviction. But, I wouldn't underestimate Carol because if she survives this week she may turn on the game play and those cheerleader types can be quite competitive.

Amber's meltdown reminded me so much of Autumn from season two. They had a competition for a car and she expected everyone to just hand it to her because she was a single mother. Everyone was afraid to compete against her, except one guy who wanted it for his wife. Autumn cried and said he "lacked compassion."

I agree with you on this one. All of hte contestants have gone through a lot to get to this point and suddenly all of that work could go up in flames because some secret multi business owner who took time off from controlling half her town, decided to put you up becuase you can sit around on a twirling mushroom. I think Amber has every right to be a little upset. It would have been better off if she had slapped Kail before nominations or something,

God did not put you on the block, Amber. Kail is not God, she just owns half a town. God does not watch Big Brother, because Tuesday is his poker night, and he does laundry on Sundays. He does not care, and for that matter, none of the others do. No deity is ridiculous enough to think that nominating you for eviction from a poorly conceptualized “Alice in Wonderland” ripoff house with hundreds of cameras constructed on a CBS backlot will make you a stronger person. You are there for money. Go work in a soup kitchen if you want spiritual growth, you bint.

At this point, the time may already be coming for Amber, but I'd actually prefer Carol to go. At least she started playing to find another target had she won the Veto.

My favorite part of "Amber Talks to God" last night was the music the editors chose for the scene. Like something you'd hear in the score of some Civil War movie battle scene, all trumpets and tympany and violas. BRILLIANT!!!!
Smooches BB8 editors.
ETA:I want more of everything, plus lots of those cry-faces that make her look like Sean Penn.

I've suspected for some time that one of the BB producers really hates Christians. How else could the Nadria twins and the Nerd Herd be explained? Still, Amber takes weird Christian to a new level. Who orders God around like a McDonald's employee? "I need you to see to it that I win the veto and then get some more fries out of the freezer!"
I sure hope she stays. I want more of everything, plus lots of those cry-faces that make her look like Sean Penn.

I am sorry but Amber has got to go. That chick bugged me so much last night I had flash backs to the Friendshits in Season 6. Ugh. And since I feel extra bitchy today, I must say that she should never, ever cry. She ain't all that to look at in the first place but when the tears come? Bitch is fucking UGLY. I mean butt ass UGLY. I swear she looked like Sideshow Bob's fugly little sister.
And the praying? Sheesh. I am a practicing Catholic and even I don't pray for such stupid shit.

Nympho is short for
nymphomaniac. It was once considered a psychological disorder, but is pretty much an antiquated and debunked term today. As Amber was using it, she just meant she likes sex. A lot.

I didn't find anything wrong with the praying, it was the praying out loud that I found irritating. It's as if the producers said to her, "why don't you voice to God what you want to happen in this house?" It was just weird. Why did she feel the need to talk out loud, especially knowing that there are cameras everywhere in the house?
I find her crying fits just as irritating as Jen. I hope she goes this week.

She completely looks like the actress that was the mom in "Almost Famous" and the detective in "Fargo". Her name may be Frances something? She's a great actress and I admire her, unlike whaamber dearest, but the really look alike. Especially in the profile and almost identical when each one speaks.
