"Backdoored." Is that Big Brother speak for getting voted off the island? ;)


Well, that's generally how it's used, but it sort of means "betrayed by someone (generally a friend or in the show an "alliance" member) who told you they were going to do one thing but did something else" and it directly affects you.

In Big Brother, someone who is backdoored is usually promised votes by someone or promised they are safe when actually they are the target of the eviction. "Thrown under the bus" is another popular phrase on there that kind of means the same thing.

Ouch. :rose:
 
Okay.

This is ridiculous.

I've been putting off this phone call for weeks. I'm a grown up and I shouldn't be struggling over making a phone call like this. The number is right here, chump - just call him.

I'm 49 and still put off certain calls, ones that I would be willing to bet are far easier to make than yours. But, do as I say, not as I do..make the call..you'll feel better
 
I finally called. I was tongue tied and goofy just like I thought I would be.
But at least it's over
now the ball's in his court. *big sigh of relief*

Why didn't someone remind me how much this whole calling-guys thing sucks? I am so bad at making the first move.

It's not any easier calling a woman, believe me. ;)

LOL. Oddly I have no problem with that. Seriously though, I forgot how hard this is. Gathering up the nerve, staring at the phone number, wondering if they'll answer or you'll get lucky and get the machine, if they'll sound happy to hear from you...

He answered.
 
So, I'm not always clean-shaven. Big fucking deal! Get over it, folks! Not you guys. Other people. Just tired of getting looked at funny, just because my occasional stubble and beard give me a distinctly foreign "terrorist" look. Can I help it if I have a Middle Eastern look?
