We’re back to the Glass House where Jeff is bawling.  He’s not crying over Erica going down the tubes.  He’s crying over the fact that the other team voted against equality.  Oh Jeff, that’s not the issue here and this isn’t Political House.  It’s a silly TV show.  What I really like is that he’s crying all of this to a black man.  Oh yes.  You know those blacks just don’t get all of this reality TV show discrimination.  They only had to deal with slavery, the KKK, segregation, fights for civil rights.  They just don’t understand your plight here on this reality show where you’re up for a quarter of a million dollar prize. 

Saving the world, one reality show at a time.

Andrea’s mad because she was voted for based on her religion and political beliefs.  I get that, but at the same time don’t you realize how small that is in comparison to your votes against civil rights for gays?  Yes, yes.  I am definitely playing both sides of the fence here.    

Kevin and Mike are talking about how real they are compared to the others who have jobs like scientist and Playboy model.  Yeah, those scientists aren’t normal people.  By the way, what the hell is up with Mike’s ‘do?

So faux-hawks are the new combover? 

Ashley comes out to tattle on Joy who was talking about how untrustworthy Kevin is.  He’s mad now that Joy was attacking his character, which is that he will bone a chick but vote her into Limbo.  Kevin goes to Joy to hear it straight from her.  He’s really mad, which I find pretty funny.  Aren’t you all playing stereotypes anyway?  He says he isn’t playing anyone – he’s the only real person in the house.  Joy says she’s sorry for attacking his character and he says, “I’m sorry you’re crying.”  Nice.  That’s like saying, “I’m sorry you feel that way.”  It’s such an asshat political “apology”. 

Today is the one year anniversary of the death of Gene’s best friend.  He’s upset that he’s not home with his friends to remember him.  Now we know what his hat means.  His friend was 30 years old when he passed.  Joy approaches him to find out why Gene is sad.  He tells her and they cuddle.  It’s all very touching.  I’m sure you’re being honest, Gene, but Stephanie already played the dead loved one card.  You pulled that out a week too late. 

Next up is a recap of the live July Fourth webisode.  Stephanie tells the viewers about Robin taking sleeping pills and Joy tells the other team that they only like Robin because she’s easily manipulated.  Mike attacks Joy for liking Gene.  He says she’s playing him and mentions something about racism.  Not sure what he’s trying to say, but it all looks as though Joy doesn’t get the fact that the men attack her because she’s an easy target.  She takes everything they say to heart.  Of course, that could also be her strategy.  God, I’m so confused!

Joy pulls Mike aside.  Mike says Joy’s using Gene for racism.  I still have no idea what he’s talking about.  I guess if I watched the live feeds I’d understand, but that’s more commitment than I’m willing to give.  She points out that her child is ¼ black.  Well, I’m 1/230498234 black, so I totally understand where you’re coming from.  Mike jumps on her for mentioning race and asks her what that has to do with anything.  Weren’t you just talking about racism for some unknown reason?  I think maybe the confusion in all of this lies in the fact that Mike doesn’t know the difference between “race” and “racism”.  I think he thinks they’re interchangeable terms.  That would make more sense when you think about it.  And here he is telling Joy she’s not smart enough to put words into his mouth.  Probably not.  It takes a lot more to figure out what an idiot would think rather than what a smart person would think, because you’re not predicting a logical mind. 

Seriously.  When is someone going to have a frank conversation with Mike about his hair and popped collar?

About

Hi, there!  About me...well, let's see.  I like to think of myself as an enigma, wrapped in a riddle, shrouded in a mystery.  Sometimes my personality doesn't even reconcile in my own head.  I'm a really caring and sensitive person, but I have a dark, dry, sarcastic sense of humor which tends gives the impression that I have no soul.  I am married to a great guy who shares my sense of humor and we have a son who, both fortunately and unfortunately, has his mother's personality.   I'm an independent contractor who works from home and keeps the kid all day, everyday.  I've loved to write my whole life and have big, never-to-be-achieved dreams of one day writing a book.  My favorite past time is laughing, which is what brought me to this site.  I can laugh at almost anything, so beware.

    I had to look up labradoodles and snowballing. Two words for one day!

    I think the Mormons have finally discovered reality television. They’ve figured out they’ve been wasting time and money with the whole knocking on people’s doors and invading our privacy schtick, when all they need to do is overrun reality television with their robot minions.

    Pretty soon, the Scientologists are going to pile on as well. And then it’ll be a real battle royale.

    I am enjoying, however, how the people in the “god-fearing” alliance are all vicious, bitter people.

    I love how Kevin and Mike thought their strategy was so stellar. To see it blow up in their face was hilarious.

    And I thought the same thing Sugarbush…even if you don’t like puppies you pretend that you do because people who don’t like puppies are sick.

    I am 99% sure those are Golden Retrievers….or possibly GoldenDoodles. Golden is my fave breed on the planet. :) Pretty sure no lab though.

    ANYHOO, I would DIE if I could get in the middle of that huge multi-puppy hug. SO FRIGGIN ADORABLE!!

    Regarding Mike and Joy….the way I heard the convo was that Mike just said that he didn’t believe that Joy really liked Gene and he thought she was playing him or using him or it was strategy, etc., and out of nowhere she screamed WHY? Can’t 5’2″ white girl like a 6’5″ black guy?!? That’s when Mike said, where did the race/racism come from. And then she completely lost her mind. :P

    I was done with Kevin after he voted to oust Erica. uh, Mike isn’t too bright either. Both of them disgust me. Having said that — I was wondering what Kevin looked like without his shirt on.

    Ashley’s Katrina tears and Gene’s dead tears seemed fake to me. I was laughing through both of their tearful reminiscences. Was that wrong of me? Maybe, I’m just too cynical.

    I liked the puppies. I don’t understand the dog hater.

    Mr. D, I swear we were separated at birth . . . I too was wondering what Kevin looks like without his shirt!!! HAHA! Can’t believe he’s only 33 tho! Looks older, and that helps.

    In the bedroom, I noticed the timing when Mike pulled off his clothes and jumped in bed . . . sitting atop the bedspread in his skivvies . . . just looked a bit odd and planned.

    Really just saw this one epi, I think the gay convo went way too extreme, for heavens sake . . . not everyone is going to agree on everything . . . I prefer a spirited debate over hysterical crying. Mike really needs to shut it. Kevin is a jerk, despite wanting to strip him, and everyone else-meh . . . but I may watch a few for the bit of eye candy, unless, dun dun dun, American shit can’s Kevin for being such a tool.

    This show is so heavily edited it is amazing. Gene’s hard day was July 2nd. The Jeff crying thing had to do with the fan questions for the house, not the eviction. Then, the fact that the editors are clearly trying to get the ‘viewers’ to vote for Ashley by giving her that whole back story. Also, they clearly edited Kevin to be the villain. I know all reality shows are edited, but this show is crazy since a lot of it goes off of fans votes.

    @NikkiHughes – re Mike/Joy – you put it perfectly. Mike never brought up race or racism, that was all Joy. He was saying it was sketchy that Joy was all over Gene. Joy tossed in the race card. Then Joy got all pissy and Mike actually made a good point – that he said nothing about race, it was Joy who immediately went there. Mike’s point was still messed up, he doesn’t trust Joy. I have a feeling he thinks it is odd that Joy, a Playboy model, would go for Gene, a rather large guy and not him or Kevin. Mike seems to have a rather large ego for some strange reason.

    It was a little scary how out of breath Jeff was from that simple challenge. No one else was even tired and he was breathing like he had just run a 100 meter dash.

    Also, those puppies were just golden retrievers, not labradoodles. A litter or even group of labradoodles do not all look exactly the same.

    “It’s that pesky homo virus.” Damn. I think I pulled something laughing. Nice.

    I came thisclose to just turning this shit off for good. The assholes in this house were almost too much to bear. Then I decided to peek at who was going into limbo (I hate myself for using their term – go Big Brother! Hey, maybe CBS will somehow prevail and this Glass House of Meh will get pulled of th air. Wishful thinking) and decided to watch the rest of the episode.

    As long as the dickheads, douchnozzles, asshats, and equality-hating bitches are soon to be gone I’m okay. Then it’ll be fun to watch MY team cannibalise itself, hee hee.

    Oh, and you guys talking about the editing are soooo right. WAY too much shit happens that we don’t get to see and they chop it up until it makes NO FUCKING SENSE. Dumb! Dumbdumbdumb!

    Oh, and @itchy, you are too cool for school, dude :-)

    @amy, that’s why this silly format of one show a week doesn’t work. It’s just too much happening.

    What’d be fun would be if they stopped airing the show but didn’t tell the contestants.

    Agree with previous posts on the Mike/Joy argument. Mike wasn’t the one that brought up the race issue, it was that shank Joy. And I don’t see that as being jealous…but just having common sense. Anyone watching can see that b.s for what it is. She’s totally playing Gene & she got so upset because she knew he was on to her fake ass.
