    ^ I view it as slightly different. Saying yo constantly at the end of a sentence makes you sound childish and less intelligent. Saying eh just makes you sound Canadian.

    A couple thoughts about the triple: (mildly spoilery)

    1) How could someone in the control room be as dumb to leave the words triple eviction floating around Julie before they officially told the houseguests about it?

    2) Given that the triple had been floating around as an idea, I'm pretty surprised they were all as shocked as they were when they found out about it.

    3) I wish they would have done something different for the second veto comp.

    4) this one is quite spoliery....I'm very glad David went first. I was afraid that he would have been dragged along to like final 4. Now, once Nicole leaves, I'll be relatively happy with whoever wins.

    5) I hope that next HOH is an endurance comp and happens fairly soon to test that as much as possible.

    Offend? I follow Evel Dick and you're asking if you offended me??? You're too sweet! I was just trying to get your take on both.

    Born & raised in Southern California, so the totally rad way of talking is how I grew up, dude. My favorite comedy of all time is Fast Times at Ridgemont High. I think Enzo sounds like a moron when he talks, yo. But, it's charming on him. He's scrawny and a pipsqueak, so it works. If he had the steroid look with wife beaters and styled hair, then he'd be a fool. If I had to live with someone speaking like Enzo 24/4 -- no way!

    Some people might wonder what the difference is. LOL!

    Actually, I agree with you. But in true Canadian fashion, I didn't want to offend anyone. What I meant by it not being different is that each region has it's own dialect and way of speaking. For me, with Enzo, it's not just about the "yo", but his entire body language when he speaks. I don't want to stereotype (but I obviously am), Enzo speaks the way I would expect a much younger person to speak when they think they are being cool. But then they grow up and try to get a job, and they realize that if they want to be successful, they need to drop the dialect and silly arm movements and conform to how the majority speak and act.

    I don't know what Enzo does for a living, and maybe it's because I work with highly educated (Canadian) professionals, but I would never be able to hire Enzo no matter how smart he might be. In my world, he would never be taken seriously. In his world, he's accepted as he is, and that's great for him.

    Really knowing nothing about you, I started to worry that you spoke like that too! But now I know you're just a totally rad dude. You must have loved that Otev comp!

    It's because of his immaturity, and his ridiculous forty-something looking like a teenager trying to be a mobster attitude that I can't stand the guy.

    He's an insurance adjuster. I have to assume that he "puts on" a more conventional dialect when at work.
    Regards,

    I can only imagine your face, Duncan, as Enzo arrives to let you know he is your claim representative.

    [knock on Duncan Glenday's home residence door]
    Duncan: Hello?
    Vincenzo: Hello, Mr. Glenday? My name is Vincenzo, from Outta Da Burrowz Insurance. I'm here to see your damaged bicycle, sir.
    Duncan: Right this way, young lad.
    Vincenzo: Oh, thank you sir. I am actually 43, and father of two.
    Duncan: Well, then, for a man of 43 you are doing something right. Keep up the good work. Ah, here is there bicycle.
    [Vincenzo stands motionless, eyes glazed]
    Vincenzo: Yo! What the fuh... happened here, yo??? Nah, man, nah. This was all YOU!. Yooze aint gonna be able to claim nuttinz, yo! Fuhgeddit. I'm out, yo. On the flip side! And don't call no office 'ta complain, yo. Ain't happenin', yeah? Meow Meow not gonna have dat! I'm out, yo.

    Oh my! It's like me acting like Enzo -- he would spot me a mile away. Otev was over the top, but ok.

    That makes me think that he's probably putting on an act for BB. It's all about creating good TV.

    Nicole - What a great ending to this season that would be...for us.
    Cody - Winning out.
    Nicole - Winning out and being like "you guys were warned week four".
    Cody - They tried telling you.
    Nicole - Janelle tried telling everybody about me, Kaysar tried telling about you

    ====

    This pre-game alliance thingy made the season boring. Every week was pre-determined. If the HoH wanted them gone, they were gone. No chance for changing things up. No plans to turn things around. The only oddity was Dani having to nominate a total of four during her reign.

    All I gots is Enzo, yo.

    Enzo has won me over. I'd really like to see him win. I think that he's played a very smart game. He has totally stayed under the radar and made some smart alliances while also keeping his alliances quiet. He wasn't part of The Committee and yet almost every person in The Committee was protecting him.

    He needs to get rid of Nicole though. I think that Cody is loyal to Nicole over Enzo. I also think that Cody thinks that he can beat Nicole easier than Enzo.

    IMO, Enzo's best bet is to get to final two with Christmas.

    Enzo - Them two (Cody/Nicole) came in here with some type of thing.
    Christmas - They had the same mentor.
    Enzo - Exactly. They were on the phone for three months before this thing fucking started. I know already

    It made me laugh (and then made me sad) that none of the remaining houseguests knew of the Knight Moves competition.

    It also made me realize that I really havent' seen these people play chess in the house in quite some time. In fact, this year seems to be backgammon as game of choice, and to me that is the perfect analogy for how the gameplay has decreased over the past 6+ seasons.
    Please don't ask questions, just use google.
