See for me I think IF Josh is F1, this is a lesson for anyone not to stereotype, no two people are alike just because they share the same profession.... I wish people would stop boxing people in to this square peg everyone brings something different to a relationship no matter how similar you think they are.....[/quote]

Totally agree with bolded!

In the video of Josh kneeing Nick in the crotch on the bball group date, the hash tag read something like #Joshisabully which struck me because i thought Brian and Josh were cool. Do any of the contestants follow Josh on social media or did he walk away with no new friends but the girl instead?

I think Brian followed Josh on tweeter but Josh does not follow back. But then again, Josh follows very few.

Here's some of them:

Brian follows Josh as well as Josh's sister Stephanie. He started following Josh before he followed Nick, Dylan or JJ
Dylan only follows 44 people; Josh is one of them
JJ follows Josh and apparently was talking to him during a recent long lay-over at the airport
Andrew follows Josh but does not follow Nick
Tasos, Patrick and Nick S also follow Josh

Good research! The difference at the moment is quite of few of the guys are tweeting back & forth with Nick. Maybe after the finale they will do the same with Josh.

But in all honesty, both guys have friends from the house. Both have good and bad qualities. I really disliked the cast split in the house during JPG's season. It was like covert warfare instead of people sharing travel and experiences. So weird.

julychild, please don't hit me, but a Pookie and a teddy bear sound like they go very well together!

As for the guys and tweets, etc. I find that the people on the boards are usually much more angry with the person they think wronged their favorite than their favorite ever is with that person. Remember back to the board wars of 2012 where Arie and Jef fans were ripping the other person to shreds and Arie and Jef were pretty good friends. That friendship lasted almost two years and the people on each side still bring up their hatred for the other one.

A possibility is that it would draw more traffic to RS's site.
Then more people would know he has no friends from the mansion giggling

He and Nikki should become friends, since she was the bitch of her season per RS. Hugesmile

Of course if I get my wish maybe Andi and Nick can double date with JPG and Nikki!

Fishy indeed!

I think everyone should at the very least question the video's validity given how fast it landed on RS' lap. Is it really such a stretch to think that ABC could whip together a 3 minute video of a spoiled F4 yakking about the show while chomping on Cheetos?

ABC is in the business of writing scripts and producing TV shows. The Bachelorette has a ready supply of camera/sound guys. Nick was just on camera for 8 weeks ... doing countless ITMs ... AND ... had his back to the camera the entire time so his acting skills did not need to be Oscar worthy.

And, ABC loves to stir up a little controversy ... a la Juan Pablo's season.

IF Nick is F1, he's really of no use to them now so why not have him be the bad guy on video and fool RS/spoilers in the process? I have to believe that Andi would be all in to keep her ending a secret to the very end.

I just watched today's mini epi.
My take on the whole cocktail argument is that it was producer driven.
This often happens in seasons and I really dislike it. They target front runners and try to push their buttons so that the lead has a truer unfiltered sense of the how a person reacts. Nick is quite self-controlled thus the mass attack. It seems someone didn't feel he was challenged enough so they will be at it again next week. It is contrived drama that Nick wouldn't be aware was prearranged.

The upside of Nick being pushed to a limit is he is reacting spontaneously so Andi will see how that is and whether that works for her. The reason why I think it's awful is because in real life these guys wouldn't be dating his girlfriend so no one would care if he went to talk to her when she was upset or if he felt entitled as her boyfriend.

He's being put through the gauntlet at his own expense like many before him. I think the point of the next "attack" will be to see if when Andi talks to him afterward he will confide in her. This won't be about breaking a man code but rather about whether, as a partner, he is willing to give up some of his control to her. Will he allow her to nurture or will he remain self-contained.

In this weird and very short courtship show I can see why it is necessary to be aware of the good and the bad in prospective partners. It just all comes about in a way that reminds me of mad professors and lab rats.
