I loved that kid! |
Oh my. It was some night in the house. Celebrations! Catfights! Long talks. Tears. Jeers. Screaming. Hurt feelings. High school mean girls times ten. Where to start? I guess I'll start from the beginning. Here's the overnight escapades from inside that Big Brother House of Pitiful Pet Rats:
- Helen and the group don't suspect Howard of the hinky vote. Helen says she doesn't like disloyal people.
- They suspect the hinky vote was Jessie. Howard and Spencer have a lot to do with the suspicion cast her way.
- Helen danced a lot, as did Elissa.
- The house seems to be changing Helen. She's using the F word an awful lot as of late.
- GinaMarie, wearing Nick's blue cap, cried hysterically on and off all night. When she wasn't crying, she was sniffling. When she wasn't sniffling or crying, she was fighting.
- She used a pair of red shorts to blow her nose on, as well as whatever was in reach. Ew. Biohazard, I say!
- She honestly thinks she and Nick were going to be this great couple while admitting they hadn't even kissed.
- At over 30, she's acting about 14 and referring to Nick as "that kid."
- Most people at 30ish aren't kids in their own minds anymore. Sure, they can be kids to me because I'm older, but ...!
- Jeremy was the surprising one. Although, thinking of his gameplay, not all that surprising.
- He congratulated Helen and even told Elissa he admires her gameplay and strategic moves.
- He kept leaving his two concubines to hang out with the rest of the house.
- He acted duly mocking of his own self for getting the boot at the first question in the comp.
- He didn't threaten anyone.
- While he was around during the catfights, he neither got involved nor helped quell them.
- He was almost likeable and mature. Then I remembered he's Jeremy. Ew.
- Then there's Aaryn and Kaitlin -- the nightmare mean girl bullies of our junior high/high school days. It almost kicked me into PTSD over the mean girls who tormented me in my teen years to watch them ... especially Kaitlin.
- Aaryn did dumb girl stuff. She tipped over Candice's bed and just doesn't have a clue.
- Kaitlin claimed Jessie's bed that Jessie has slept on since entering the house.
- I still can't get the look of glee on Kaitlin's face off my mind as she tormented both Candice and Jessie. Even Jeremy distanced himself a bit from her.
- When Kaitlin heard at one point that Candice was crying, she burst into laughter and raised a power fist.
- Who does that, I ask? What kind of person thrives on upsetting another person just to upset them?
- Howard ended up carrying Candice (who was oh-so-ready for a knock-down drag-out hair-pulling claws out catfight with GinaMarie) out of the room.
- Judd rescued Jessie, prompting cat calls from the mean girls about how she couldn't get anyone else, so she went for Judd.
- To be honest, although Judd seems to like the female attention, he doesn't seem like he's there for a showmance.
- Judd has moved up almost daily in my own personal hamster rankings. I don't think he'll win the show, but at least he's a halfway decent person.
- Judd told Helen he'd like to host the next PoV comp if he doesn't play. She said okay.
- He thanked her, "Mumble, mumble."
- I pick on that mumbling, but he can speak up and be understood when he wants. When he's talking game low, he's so hard to understand!
- Aaryn whined about the game not being fair. Heck, was it ever fair?
- Amanda again told Aaryn about the racist talk keeping people from wanting to get close to her.
- Every time Amanda mentioned the Diary Room questioning them about Aaryn's racist comments, we got fish.
- Aaryn is in disbelief. How can people say that about her?
- I say, "Pot, kettle, black."
- I do think the race issues with this cast are a horrendous representation in today's world. I live in an area where more people are black or Hispanic than white while I'm white. I have friends of all kinds from all walks of life and from several different countries. Good people are good people, no matter race, color, national origin, etc.
- Bad people obviously get recruited to be hamsters on Big Brother.
- I was dismayed that after Howard carried Candice away from the catfight, he told her that he's had to be tapdancing and shucking and jiving to keep in with the others. Now, is he doing that with his talks with Spencer? I don't think so.
- Dang. I just can't believe race is such an issue! My friends and I have good-natured joking occasionally about our differences, but nothing deep malicious. I recall a discussion on the train with a black male friend about great white egrets after we saw one out the window. He said he thought that egrets were black. I asked him why they'd be called great white egrets if they were black. Another black male friend nearby said, "Yeah, it's always about color, isn't it? And they're 'great', huh?" A nearby woman looked at us like we were all crazy. But it was all just in fun. If everyone was alike, this would be a boring world indeed. Around this area, I like to think most of us cherish our differences and we all bring something to the table of life.
- < / soapbox>
- Candice and Jessie were told by their friends they didn't want them sleeping in the room with the mean girls (and Jeremy).
- Helen offered to put them both up in the HoH room.
- Aaryn told Kaitlin that the way Jeremy is acting is going to push people away.
- Um. No. It might push the mean girls away, but he's acting the best of his side.
- Amanda knows it was either Howard or Spencer voting the hinky vote even though those two are trying to blame Jessie.
- GinaMarie hysterically cried some more while saying she cooked and cleaned ... NO MORE!
- Jeremy giggled and said he never cleaned anyway. But we knew that.
- Aaryn told Kaitlin that Jeremy only thinks of himself.
- Yup. And right now Jeremy thinking of his own game is doing better than them being so horribly mean and vindictive.
- He will surely be a target, but they're both drawing bigger targets on themselves with their bad behavior.
- Jeremy told the Mean Girls that he was disgusted with America for voting Elissa MVP twice.
- He doesn't realize that, when the time comes that the votes don't go through for Elissa, they won't go their way.
- GinaMarie said that Nick made her feel smart.
- Well, that's pretty dumb, I say. One should "feel smart" on their own merits, not with some sort of hyped-up pseudo-relationship.
- Aaryn and her crew figured out that Howard voted with them to save Nick.
- Unfortunately, Candice keeps telling her side that no way did Howard vote to save Nick.
- Candice is building her own personal pseudo-relationship with Howard, albeit a bit more real (just a bit) than the GinaMarie/Nick charade.
- Thankfully, Andy, McCrae and Amanda are pretty sure either Howard or Spencer made the hinky vote.
- I have to give Jessie kudos for going down from the HoH room reveal quickly to jump in her bed and defend her territory from the Mean Girls. I didn't think she had that much spunk.
- The game is getting to Howard. He broke down and cried after trying to calm down Candice for the longest time.
- That was very sad.
- Candice told the live feeders that whoever Aaryn's parents are, they did a horrible job raising her. Helen assured her the cameras see everything.
- I personally would say the same of Kaitlin. While Aaryn is pretty much just a pretty face dumb racist, Kaitlin has an unbelievable mean streak and takes too much pleasure in the suffering of others. She's mean just to be mean and then laughs about it.
- Jeremy won't defend his gals. He said they're all being catty.
- Meow.
- Aaryn is sure she's being called racist because she's from Texas with blond hair and blue eyes.
- @@
- Since Candice really really wants to sleep downstairs, not in the HoH room, Elissa and Jessie join her. Power in numbers, I guess.
- Amanda and McCrae join them.
- Aaryn says that because she's from the south, it's easier to portray her as a racist.
- @@
- Keep coming up with excuses, girl.
- McCrae told Aaryn her gameplay sucks because she won't make an effort to get along with others at all.
- Amanda told Aaryn that both David and Nick are gone because of her (Aaryn's) actions.
- McCrae told Amanda about the Moving Company.
- Helen still thinks Spencer was the vote for Nick to stay, not Howard. That's because Candice is in her ear about it and believes Howard.
- Kaitlin made some apologies to those she yelled at.
- I doubt her sincerity.
- Judd told Amanda that they'll need to vote out someone, but not necessarily the real obnoxious ones.
- Apparently he either feels the real obnoxious ones will have bigger targets on their backs or, if they make it to the finals, no one will like them enough to vote them the winner.
- Have I said Judd might be the best playing hamster in the habitrail?
- Howard lied to Helen again about the vote.
- Helen told him she doesn't like liars.
- I say, "Hey, it's BB!"
- Jeremy and Aaryn talked about karma.
- Yeah. Really.
- BHAHAHAHAHAHA!
- All are in bed now.
- What a night. Gotta say, the best live feeds in years!
- RIP -- The Moving Company, age 2 weeks.
