"What is WRONG with you?" - to Rachel

After the house got together for last night's trashbag wedding, you'd think everything would be sunshine and lollipops today, right? Ha. Any of you folks who have been following me for a while know there's nothing I enjoy more than a good brouhaha. And, to me, the best brouhaha is one that's absolutely senseless and causes a hamster I don't enjoy to self-implode. BOOM! Some drama fo' yo' mama!

I know it's a cruel dark side of me, but it's so much better than ME acting out and making a fool of myself on television! Here's today's happenings from inside that Big Brother House of Ridiculous Rachel Rants:

• While the day started out quiet enough, it all went to heck in a handbasket before long.
• First, Rachel went around talking to others about how Brendon needs to stay because Jordan already won the game once.
• It would be SO unfair if Jordan won a second time.
• She gave the speech to Shelly, Porsche and Adam at different times.
• Of course, word got back to Jeff and Jordan.
• Brendon and Rachel think Jeff and Jordan have a deal with Daniele.
• Jeff went to talk to Rachel and Brendon about not throwing others under the bus even though they're campaigning.
  
• He did so very diplomatically without throwing any of the informants under said reality TV bus.
• But that's not the brouhaha.
• It upset Rachel, but not to the point of implosion.
• That is yet to come.
• And it's so darn stupid of her that I can only repeat what Daniele said to her as it was hitting the fan ...
• "What is WRONG with you, Rachel?"
• It all started out innocently enough.
• Daniele told Adam and Shelly that she gave their people "shout-outs" on her HoH blog. She mentioned Adam's girlfriend and told Shelly's daughter Josie to have a good first day of school and her husband to put a heart on her hand for her.
• I've read enough HoH blogs to know that sometimes they mention other players' people or events.
• They do.
• They really do.
• Shelly stepped outside in tears at both the thoughtfulness of Daniele to mention it and missing her daughter.
• All of a sudden, we see Rachel storming around the kitchen slamming together a sandwich or something, ignoring Porsche, Lawon and Kalia who were having fun nearby.
• Rachel storms into the Diary Room, comes out a few minutes later, then storms up to the HoH room.
• Getting very snotty and into a situation in men would have a "pissing contest," both went on about two HoH reigns.
• Of course, this season the BB FOTH button pushers are very quick on the trigger.
• If a hamster says "pro..." they hit the censor button because they think the hamster is about to talk about production.
• Geez, they could be talking about PROstitutes!
• Well, not in this case.
• But Rachel did get it out that when she yelled in the DR, they said to her, "Well, why don't you go ask Daniele about it?"
  
• Rachel claims that they're not allowed to "give shout-outs" for other players.
• Daniele says no one ever stopped her from doing it before nor has anyone told her she can't.
• So Rachel thinks Daniele is either lying to Shelly to manipulate her or just manipulating her if she did indeed write it.
• So then it all goes outside.
• Brendon backs his sweet Rachel as she lights into Daniele in front of everybody.
• They both storm into the house.
• After that, even if someone hates Daniele, they're going to be in her corner about the whole absurd scene!
• So, the rest of the day so far has been everyone except Brenchel siding with Daniele over the outburst.
• I'd say, while Daniele can indeed be manipulative, she probably did do the shout-outs just being nice.
• Rachel, with her dark view of the world and lack of people skills, doesn't seem to understand that sometimes people just do the right and nice things in life without ulterior motives.
• I hate to say this, but I do feel a bit sorry for Rachel.
• Just a wee bit.
• I'm sure I'll get over it.
• Y'see, in her HOURS of crying to Brendon and saying how she screws up everything, how everybody is going to hate her even more, how she can't even get a job because people hate her, how she wants to go home ...
• ... I felt a wee bit bad because it is sad that someone has made such a fool of herself in front of the world that their life is probably way whacked.
• But, she returned to do it a second time.
• So, my wee bit of sorry for her is quickly dissipating.
• Will she DOR?
  
• I doubt it.
• But I'm very leery of this "returning" hamster tomorrow night.
• Anyone but Brendon.
• Please.

Big Brother 13 August 3 PoV Episode Blog Party

The show is about to start here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll update this entry with major events. But the real fun is in the comments and I hope you all join in! Tonight is the Power of Veto (old news to us!) and I really hope they have the Brenchel trash wedding footage -- some of the most fun in ages with Lawon being the real star! Oh ... and if you haven't read my previous show post, take a gander. Sigh ...

On with the party!

Veto player pickin' time - Daniele, Brendon and Rachel are joined by Jeff, Adam (Rachel chose him and said it sarcastically), Porsche. Lawon is the host.

The veto is a combination of the past comps this season with Lawon wearing a huge Flava Flav clock. They have to guess the time it takes to complete a task, then the fastest guess must do the task within the time of the guess.

Rachel knocked out Adam in the first round.
Rachel knocked herself out in the second round.
Daniele knocked herself out in the third round.
Jeff came close, but knocked himself out in the fourth round.
It's between Brendon and Porsche.
Brendon wins the Power of Veto!

America's vote - coconuts and catfish, raisins and rhubarb and um ... um ... I forget.

Brendon is trying to convince everybody that he's going to save himself when he's actually planning to save his beloved Rachel. GAG.

Veto meeting time. Rachel does her little speech. He saves Rachel, perfect! Daniele, as previously discussed with Jeff and Jordan, puts Jordan in Rachel's place. It's now Jordan and Brendon on the block.

The Have Not food choice is up.

Big Brother 13 - No No No Comebacks Please!

Sometimes the loading bit hits the nail on the head ... or on the nose! But that's not why I'm here.

I never think it's fair when evicted people return to the game. They're evicted, gone, let the game go on. But Allison Grodner, much akin to her creepy liking of Jessie and Brenchel, likes these things.

Apparently the next America's Vote has us voting one of the evictees back into the house. Everyone is included except Evel Dick. Keith, Cassi and Dominic have all been sequestered since eviction, so they're fair game. Plus, the CBS site is including BRENDON in the poll on the assumption he's gonzo tomorrow night.

The poll was posted for mere moments on the CBS BB13 site (which has a makeover I absolutely hate) and I tried to get there to no avail. But thanks to hamsterwatch.com (get your live feeds through her if you plan to pick them up) and zap2it.com, there is a screen capture.

If idiots vote Brendon back in, I swear heads will roll!

A truly trashy wedding

Well. last night wasn't your typical evening in the BB13 house. Oh, sure ... there was still a bit of scheming. You can't be in that house without a bit of treachery and deceit. But we had the social event of the season happen right before our very eyes. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of the Trashbag Dream Wedding:

• As much as I don't care for Brendon or Rachel, this was really fun. Everyone in the house got involved, even their arch nemesis Daniele.
• The trashy theme was perfect for the couple.
• Lawon was a hoot as he performed the ceremony with a mix of gospel and street church.
• Jordan caught the bouquet, Jeff the garter.
• Hmmm.
• The sang "For She's a Jolly Good Fellow" in lieu of anything else because that song is public domain.
• Elf Adam was the ringbearer.
• Rachel made up a wedding vow poem which included "no one will come between me and my man."
• Brendon's vow included a nod to ABC instead of CBS. Wanna bet that won't air on the show? He said he chose ABC because they air The Bachelor and The Bachelorette.
• BB even gave them a bottle of champagne.
  
• Amidst all of the wedding preparation and celebration, it's still Big Brother.
• Since most of the house will target either Rachel or Daniele this week after Brendon goes on Thursday, Jeff and Jordan's NOT wanting to get HoH makes sense. They're down there on the list of targets.
• At least, for the moment.
• Adam is seriously studying for the HoH comp, hoping it's questions.
• Lawon told Daniele (not Brenchel) that he'd put up Rachel and Shelly.
• Not that I think he'd win a comp at all, but I also think he'd entertain the idea of nominating Jeff, Jordan or Daniele with Rachel.
• He's sneaky.
• Daniele thinks that Rachel was rude to them after everyone worked so hard on the mock wedding for them.
• Oh, c'mon Daniele. It's Rachel.

Rachel's happy ...

... when she's the center of attention

Just wait until she's playing the game without her Poookie! Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Bacherlor/Bachelorette Bashes:

• As I told you yesterday, Brendon decided to be all gallant and saved Rachel with the veto.
• Daniele, who previously discussed it with Jordan and Jeff, put Jordan on the block against Brendon as Jordan was the safest pawn.
• In a way, Daniele is very happy because her main target was Brendon, not Rachel.
• Yet she scrambled before the meeting and afterward too, making sure Jordan had the votes to stay.
• Everyone was a bit surprised because Brendon, despite always saying he would save Rachel, had changed his tune the past day or so -- saying he would take himself off the block.
• Which, of course, would be the wiser thing to do gamewise.
• But, for me, Rachel without Brendon might perk up the feeds some!
• Jordan isn't doing well with the Have Not foods. She's barely eating, consisting mostly on pickles. She doesn't like the sardines and seaweed, the slop goes right through her and she's just not eating much at all.
• But she isn't complaining. The others keep trying to get her to eat.
• Jordan is a bit worried about being on the block even though everyone keeps telling her she's safe.
• She's worried that Brendon is running around making deals.
• Kalia, as usual, has a focus on the money. Previously she mentioned how she wants to make the jury to get the full $8,500 stipend ($750 a week). Now she's saying how bad it must be to go out this week and just miss the full stipend.
• Rachel is leery of her ally, Porsche.
• As she should be.
• Shelly, once again, sucked up to Brenchel telling them how unfair it is that they're being split up and what good people they really are.
• Really?
• Blech. Pardon me if I go be ill for a moment!
• Rachel told Porsche she won't talk to Daniele for the rest of the summer.
• After all, Daniele separated her from her man!
• Rachel said that Daniele is worse than Britney was last year.
• Adam has assured both Jordan and Daniele that Jordan has his vote to stay.
• However, he's wisely not making any promises but acting interested in what Brenchel has to say.
• Brendon thinks that Porsche is trying to manipulate Rachel and shouldn't be trusted.
• Daniele told Kalia that she really wants Rachel out next week.
• Well, duh.
• Then the fun started -- Adam, Porsche and Lawon came up with a relatively tame "stripper" dance for Rachel and Brendon's bachelor/bachelorette party.
• I hate to say it, but Adam dances better than I do.
• Fun was had by all.
• Even me as I watched it.
• Porsche told Daniele she won't nominate or backdoor her next week -- she'd go after Lawon, Kalia or Shelly.
• I don't believe that.
• I don't think Daniele really does either.
• Rachel cried after she went to the DR to tape her goodbye message.
• Nothing to see here, move along.
• Daniele told Porsche how Brenchel came to her trying to get her to put Porsche on the block and how she's expendable to them.
• Meanwhile, the rest of the vet crew is talking about how worthless Porsche is in the game and they don't trust her.
• When Brendon saw Porsche, he told her she shouldn't hang out with Daniele or people will think they're working together.
• He also asked Porsche who she'd put up on the block -- Daniele and maybe Shelly.
• Hmm.
• Jordan talked to Adam about throwing the next HoH to him (so they won't be in the spot to put up Daniele or offend Rachel).
• He's agreeable. He just doesn't want it to be endurance.
• Huh. I wonder why endurance scares him.
• Oh, yeah. It's because he sucks at anything physical.
• Except strip-dancing, that is.
• That's pretty much where things stand now.
