Big Brother 4 [Start Date Revealed]

For those topics one could describe as the forum equivalent of a twinkie. Word games, forum contests and giveaways are all the rage here.

I'm with you Regan, but it is mostly because i don't have the time or energy any time but the summer to follow a show like that. Anyways, when they do the shows less then a year a part they are tedious. You still have some notion of the previous one so you realize you have to get to know a bunch of "random"people and it can be exhausting and/or annoying to follow that many petty social workings.

I actually have never seen an episode of Big Brother before, haha. I don't watch too much television in general.

Yeah. You pretty much knew that the season was going to be poor because it was just thrown as filler in during that writer's strike. Bleh.

I don't really watch tv either. I used to, but I've finally pried myself away from the boob tube and found fulfilling things to do. However, I do enjoy a good, scandalous season of Big Brother.

I've never seen BB. It sounds sad- I know.

Oh quiet you! I made that guide four years ago and well, I didn't go back to edit out any grammatical errors (as you can see).

Edit: You know what? I don't see anything wrong with those sentences. Perhaps the first one is a bit weird, but the second one is fine.

-checks Wikipedia-

Apparently it's fine,

It is increasingly common to use reflexive pronouns without local linguistic antecedents to refer to discourse participants or people already referenced in a discourse: for example, "Please, forward the information to myself". Such formulations are usually considered non-standard. Within the linguistics literature, reflexives with discourse antecedents are often referred to as "logophors".

Yes, it's tomorrow.

But it'll be a late night post as I'll be at work from 9-5, than school from 7-10. So I'll be home around 10:30 to start the game.
