The Challenge: Free Agents - The Thumbsucker

It's a bit disappointing that this was the 2nd challenge in a row where the girls can kind of just hang around. I realize a few of them did compete, but I would just like to see the challenges start dividing into Guy/Girl heats. I'm hoping these team events are just something they're going to do early, since it's an individual challenge it would be nice for them to be able to compete individually.

[QUOTE=PinkRose;405919]I agree about the Frank park. [B]Laurel/Jordan are extremely cocky. Both of them can be delusional,[/B] but I am #TeamNia when it comes to her fights with Jasmine. She always wins the arguments against the little midget , I was cracking up for all the shade she was throwing on Jasmine way during the entire aftershow. I like Latoya, but I feel like she takes this game way to personal especially since she wasn't as close as she make it seem with Nia (This episode) and most likely Jordan next episode.[/QUOTE] Maybe it's just me, but I don't see how Laurel has been all that cocky this season? Rivals yes, Cutthroat yes, but she hasn't done anything yet this season to deserve being called cocky. I think she's just confident? But I agree about Jordan. I still kind of enjoy him though.

[QUOTE=Challenge 17;405916]I don't like Cara but I mean I feel bad for her because she has to deal with Johnn's abuse every season[/QUOTE] She brought it on herself. They used to be friends...she would talk about how much she liked him around Cutthroat/Rivals. Her issue is that she has to be so "anti-establishment" and Johnny basically is the establishment and she couldn't handle it. Johnny got annoyed by her taking shots at him and started firing back. Ever since the Island Johnny figured out that if you target a girl to pick on you're going to be made to look like an *******. Since then he's never really done that...all of his fights with girls have been about the game (Susie) or way more complicated than teasing (Camila). Cara started going at him and he started to fire back (way too much I agree, but I don't think it was him who started it). How soon she forgets who used to back her up and who used to bring her down.

Rookies get voted in, its that simple. In reality if her and Nia were that close their friendship wouldn't have ended over one vote. They were friendly, not friends, and we see her going in on someone else again next week. She needs to realize it's just a game, and everyone is just looking out for themselves at all times. I've never seen a rookie act so entitled.

[QUOTE=PinkRose;405922]She hasn't be shown enough, but I keep hearing she was cocky during filming that her Jordan were extremely cocky. That's her personality and I still like Laurel, but she always have been more than confident.[/QUOTE] Oh ok, I see that. I guess I'll just have to wait and see. I agree with you, I still like Laurel and I have to admit if I was her in this season, I would probably be pretty cocky too.

I saw it last week and it threw me for a loop because I thought they hated each other before rivals.

The after show kinda made me like Nia I laughed when she said "She knows better" because Jasmine would have died right there. And Nia was right the elimination would have been like a minute if Nia faced jasmine. I would have been bored as hell if I was one of the cast there watching for 80 minutes tho lol.

[QUOTE=PinkRose;405932]My delusional comment is toward Jasmine/Nia not Laurel/Jordan: 1. Jasmine is delusional by thinking she will beat Nia *** and acting tough. 2. Nia is delusional by stating "Everyone knows, who I am" no sweety you're not an A list celebrity and your season is the worsed rated season in 29 season of The Real World.[/QUOTE] Oh sorry! I completely misunderstood, i agree about both Jasmine and Nia.

[QUOTE=PinkRose;405936]Love Roxy commentary about Jessica: [video=youtube;CuK8vWb5FTo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuK8vWb5FTo[/video][/QUOTE] Edit: was a completely stupid question

[QUOTE=Challenge 17;405929]I completely forgot about that, that would explain why a lot of the cast hates cara[/QUOTE] If you visit her Formspring account you can undertstand why JB doesn´t like her

Nicolette really bothers me. I find her to be almost intolerable on the AfterBuzz. Everyone else, I enjoy.

I really don't think she overreacted. Of course she's going to be upset when she's voted in. No one WANTS to be voted in. And when she was talking to Camila about Nia, I got the vibe that it was more to save her butt and throw Nia under the bus (thus saving herself) than she actually feels betrayed by Nia.

Paranoid or not LaToya's plan worked, she planted the seed in Camilla and she sent Nia in.

She takes everything to personal. Like she is always depressed!

[QUOTE=Challenge 17;405944]Paranoid or not LaToya's plan worked, she planted the seed in Camilla and she sent Nia in.[/QUOTE] However, Nia was the smarter choose versues LaToya. I mean Nia and LaToya aren't great in challenges but Nia had a little bit more potential than LaToya in the long run.

I was shocked about what Bananas/Jonna said about Frank since they are his friends. Nany clearly hates Frank.. Sad to see him go like that though, he is a great competitor. Bananas cheering for Nia hahahah. I'm not a big fan of Caramaria but she proved herself, not only physically but mentally. Johnny was clearly cheering for Nia to get inside CM's head so she would loose because in the past she lets things get to her mentally but this time it didn't. It was funny to see Bananas cheering for Nia so much though, lol.

[QUOTE=Livewitpeace;405946]However, Nia was the smarter choose versues LaToya.

But i will agree she is probably better than Latoya. I love Latoya though.

[QUOTE=Coralfan;405950]I don't think Nia was that bad. But i will agree she is probably better than Latoya. I love Latoya though.[/QUOTE] I don't, however I see her being on another challenge in the future. If it came down to Swift and Jasmine or Swift and LaToya on a possible Exes 2 I would much rather have Swift and LaToya because at least they have a fighting chance in The Dome unlike if he was with Jasmine because she sucks especially in elimations. I just can't take LaToya being sent in to The Dome and all the *****ing she will do!

I don't think it was wrong what Bananas said. I wouldn't have minded if he said it about Kenny or Evan or Tyler. He just said that Frank's played a shady/mean game in the past and karma bit him. He didn't say he was happy to see him go or that he didn't like him. Also, in terms of Nia, I think she's probably a better athlete than what she's shown, but quite frankly she's rather stupid if she believes that she can come into a house and not have any friends and be successful. We've seen CT, Landon, Wes, and countless others who are better athletes than she try that strategy and fail. I don't think you need to be a pathetic toady who says yes to everything the vets say and whatever but if you think you can walk in and be like "**** you all, I'm on my own but I'm still going to win this whole thing" you might as well not even unpack.

[QUOTE=PinkRose;405953]Jonna and Frank are not as closed as they used to be plus he backstabbed her on the second rivals and about Bananas no idea.[/QUOTE] But I remember them still being cool after that Rivals 2 episode aired.

Not on her own unless its a Duel 3 cause then you go at the bottom and call people out but in a game like this you need a few allies.

If Nia ever did another challenge, I hope she is more aggressive. I think she will. Nia is smart, and I bet she used this to fully learn the game and then probably come back and be more like hurricane.
