BB18: Live Feeds into Tuesday Evening - July 19

He's not having as much fun this season

But, first ...
The Feeds will be down a lil' longer than usual this week, but with good reason! Find out on Battle Back this Friday, July 22 @ 8/7c

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Whacked Whackamoles:

• They made that scrolling announcement on the Live Feeds page, so I'm making it here.
• I don't believe I ever checked out the scrolling capability here on Blogger. But I knew the HTML code for it and, gosh, it works!
• This is more exciting than the action (or lack thereof) inside the BB house today.
• Da'Vonne told James that the people in showmances much be broken up. When he questioned it, she said others. The others would be Nicole/Corey or Frank/Bridgette or Paulie/Zakiyah.
• Dang, a lot of pairing going on without much going on with them this year.
• Not that I don't mind them not doing much. As a matter of fact, I prefer it. I don't watch the feeds to see porn!
• James told Da'Vonne he has her back this week vote-wise.
• She's not worried about this week. She's worried about next.
• I think she should be very worried about next week whether she stays or goes.
• BB directed them to all go to the HoH room.
• Yep, it's an HoH lockdown and the feeds went from fish to Jeff highlights loops.
• Paulie got his HoH camera and a good time was had by all.
• @@
• More small talk than game talk today.
• Yawn.
• My cat does more interesting small talk!
• Da'Vonne told Nicole that the only people from BB17 that she kept in touch with more than just social media are Jason and Steve.
• That doesn't surprise me.
• If we had Jason in the house right now, this just might be entertaining.
• But we have Paul.
• Paul has stories.
• The backyard is closed.
• We don't know what happened in the HoH lockdown.
• They have free run of the house, but they're staying mostly in large groups with very little game talk.
• Oh, well. That's how the hamster rolls.

Woman of deadly weapon braids

Germ alert!

What? No James?

Bunch of nothing going on here

BB18: Live Feeds into Tuesday Morning - July 19

Now has Nicole all ga-ga over him

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Twisted Tales:

• Natalie defended her relationship with James to Zakiyah. She said that, even if they don't date outside of the house, he's always going to be a special person to her.
• James has a way of doing that. Just ask Meg.
• Brdgette has a mouth on her that would make a sailor blush. Every other word starts with an "F." Not so pretty for someone who tries to be so cutesy.
• Continuing try to annoy her, Da'Vonne hid Tiffany's stuffed gorilla.
• The stuffed animals came with the house this year and some have laid claim to individual ones.
• For example, Zakiyah has the giraffe whom she named Raffi. 
• Paulie's father's nickname is Raffi. I'm thinking, since I have an Italian friend nicknamed the same, probably Raffaele.
• Frank thinks they have the votes to get out Da'Vonne.
• He told Nicole they have her, James, Paul and Michelle.
• I don't know, Frank. You have some very anti-Tiffany people in those thoughts.
• Michelle vehemently hates Tiffany.
• I'm not sure James wants to vote out Da'Vonne right now, either.
• Hmm.
• Nicole is being like a pre-teen girl over Corey now. She got upset when Corey said he'd let James flirt with her if he wanted to.
• Gah. Wake up, Nicole!
• Corey tried to convince her he didn't mean anything by it. He's glad that men take an interest in her and like her.
• Paul told Michelle that Tiffany is getting voted out this week.
• That's because she told him "they" want her to throw the HoH comp if Tiffany stays.
• Hmm.
• Bridgette and Frank talked about how immature all of their fellow hamsters are.
• Frank thinks, at the advanced age of 32, that he's the fountain of all wisdom.
• Bridgette, with her potty mouth and Cabbage Patch Kid expressions (Tiffany scored one with that for me!), is oh-so-grown-up.
• Give me a break.
• Right now, things are still murky. It went from a definite Tiffany out to a Da'Vonne out, now it's kind of sort of back to Tiffany out.
• I hold with my prediction that no one will vote to evict Natalie.

Spooning again?

Oh my

None of them in the HoH bed are HoH

Still Frank's target, but ...

BB18: Live Feeds into Monday Evening, PoV renom - July 18

Shiny happy hamsters

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Riff-Raff Rats:

• I did something different with the screen caps this evening.
• I captured happiness.
• Well, Tiffany's smile was actually as she talked how she never wants to see any of them outside of the house.
• But it's a smile!
• Today's Power of Veto Meeting (blocked to the live feeds, but results come through) went down as expected.
• Corey removed himself from the block with the veto. He was the Road Kill nominee.
• Tiffany (secretly) put Da'Vonne in his place.
• So, up for eviction this week, we have Da'Vonne, Tiffany and Natalie.
• I predict Natalie will be vote-free on Thursday.
• Speculation that a hamster will return continued.
• Now, if Bronte hadn't been voted out last week, she could have done the math easily for them to realize someone must come back in.
• Heh.
• Apparently, during the PoV meeting, there was some kind of kerfuffle and nasty words back and forth between Da'Vonne and Tiffany. 
• Tiffany said that Da'Vonne "assaulted" her with her braids.
• And, now she's scared of her.
• @@
• Tiffany supposedly tried to flip her hair back on Da'Vonne, but it's too short.
• I don't know. I do hope they show it during the show!
• Frank thinks Da'Vonne's going to lay low and try to make sure she has two votes less than Tiffany. She doesn't want a tie.
• Frank told Tiffany that Corey is on the fence with the vote. 
• Frank wants Da'Vonne out.
• Before jury.
• Natalie flirted some with Paulie today.
• Zakiyah was not happy about it.
• And, of course, Michelle ran to James about it.
• @@
• Michelle got mad at James for calling her a "mean girl."
• Hey, the guy's honest. She was telling him to shun Tiffany.
• James is the kind of guy who talks to everyone. And, no one, can tell him not to talk to people.
• Plus, in his previous season and in this one, James is the one who people can go to to vent or use his shoulder to cry on. When someone's down, James is the least likely to kick him/her.
• James thinks it will be Tiffany going home. He's not in with the group that think otherwise.
• He ended up apologizing to Michelle and saying he was out of line.
• Stupid nice guy. She IS a mean girl!
• Oh geez. Nicole isn't playing a great game already and now she's grown REALLY smitten over Corey.
• James and Natalie had a long talk trying to figure out where they stood with each other.
• She claims she's upset because he tells other people his grievances before he tells her.
• He claims he's always had her back.
• Now he's slightly crushed. He says it's over.
• I say it probably never should have been in the first place.
• But, wait ... it's not over!
• She has feelings for him and claimed that rubbing Paulie's leg wasn't flirting.
• Hmm.
• Things seem to be up in the air again regarding the vote.
• Frank and Bridgette (his Cabbage Patch Kid) will vote to evict Da'Vonne for sure.
• Tiffany and Nicole seem to be backpedaling about taking out Da'Vonne this week.
• As for Da'Vonne, she pretty much expected to be put up because word was out that Tiffany won Road Kill.
• I guess it's a waiting game.

Smiles

Smile

Smile

Even a Tiffany smile

Category 4 weak link who thinks she's not

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Turning Tides for Tiff:

• Da'Vonne just might be in a lot of trouble this week.
• What's that you say?
• She isn't even on the block?
• Well, that will surely change today when the PoV meeting goes down.
• Corey, the PoV winner, is slated to take himself off the block, leaving Natalie and Tiffany as the nominees for eviction.
• Of those two, Tiffany would definitely be gone. Natalie creates less drama in the house ... MUCH less drama.
• Plus, Natalie doesn't have a sister named Vanessa.
• Since Corey was the Road Kill nominee, that means that Tiffany (Road Kill winner) will (secretly) be the one to name the renom.
• And, that renom will definitely be Da'Vonne.
• Tiffany has been workin' it. She has gone to just about everybody and anybody -- except to Da'Vonne -- spilling all kinds of stuff about Da'Vonne, mostly truths but some embellishments, too.
• Da'Vonne's BB habits of planting seeds, blabbing a bit too much and being too cocky are likely to catch up to her this week.
• As it stands now, Tiffany has Frank, Bridgette, Corey and Natalie as votes to keep her and oust Da'Vonne.
• She just might have Zakiyah, too.
• Paulie claims that he's on her side when he's talking to her and has mentioned it would be a good opportunity to get Da'Vonne out.
• But he doesn't seem fully aboard. If the vote comes to a tie, he'd be the tiebreaker this week. His vehemence over Tiffany might end up in him saving Da'Vonne to save his precious male "always right" ego.
• Michelle wants Tiffany out. Maybe that's because Da'Vonne never thought her important enough to give her the time of the Day (heehee) and she doesn't have much to do with her while Tiffany has had more interactions with her.
• As Tiffany is making the rounds to push her anti-Da'Vonne campaign, Michelle is making rounds to push her anti-Tiffany campaign.
• Da'Vonne isn't making rounds ... yet. She's not on the block, y'know.
• I'm not really sure of Michelle's motivation in all of this. Like Paul deciding he's going to be a double agent, I can see this biting Michelle on the butt down the line.
• If she's not in a close alliance with Da'Vonne (which she's not; Da'Vonne doesn't trust her), she would do better just to be quieter and observe it all.
• She thinks she's swayed Corey and Natalie, but I don't really think they're swayed. I think they'll still go to vote out Da'Vonne instead of Tiffany at this point.
• At least this week's doldrums early week period should have kerfuffles going on!
• The PoV meeting should be later today.
• Then we should see some good scrambling topped by emotional outbursts.
• Yeah, it sucks to be them. But they wanted to be on TV. We didn't!

I didn't realize Da'Vonne was so against me

Tiffany put him up, he will take himself down

SEEMS to be getting along, always a target

Still playing rather low-key

BB18: Live Feeds into Sunday Evening - July 17

Perpetually congested

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Lying Lilliputians:

• It's Sunday.
• Sundays are boring in the BB house.
• BB even lets them sleep in.
• The only redeeming value to today for the hamsters is that they once again have the yard open.
• They don't even have Photo Booth this year to go silly.
• If they want silliness, they must create their own.
• And, this bunch isn't being all that creative.
• Paul got bonked in the nose while raising one of the awnings in the yard.
• The dude seems chronically congested. Now it will make him worse. Maybe he'll sound like Felix Unger on the original TV series The Odd Couple. Honk! HONK!
• James thinks that eventually the two big dogs, Frank and Paulie, will go at each other.
• I think that will happen only if others don't off them first.
• Well, not really off. I'm not promoting violence here. I'm talking eviction.
• Paul tried to gather alliance intel from Zakiyah and Nicole re: girls alliances. He didn't get much cooperation and gave it up.
• He's still thinking he's a huge double agent for the Paulie side of the house, gathering intel from Frank and Bridgette and reporting back.
• I think that's gonna bite him in the butt. 
• Huh. Zakiyah doesn't know how to swim, but she surely knows how to wear a bathing suit!
• Bridgette and Frank still think Paulie voted for Bronte to go.
• Frank wants Da'Vonne out this week, Nicole next.
• Paulie wants Tiffany out.
• I'm thinking it's probably go to be Tiffany out rather than Da'Vonne. Natalie probably won't even get one vote.
• Tiffany continues to spill alliance beans to Frank.
• And then Bridgette.
• And then she even talked to Paulie.
• I don't think it will do her any good. 
• She might get Bridgette and Frank voting to keep her. But the rest want her out more than they want Da'Vonne out at the moment.
• Tiffany told Bridgette and Frank every secret she knows and some that she's just heard about.
• She told Paulie that she's sure she's going so she's telling all.
• Paulie continues to lie to her, saying that she wasn't his target last week and he thought it was Bronte going all along.
• Yeah, right.
• As she did with her Frank/Bridgette talks, she's painting a picture of Da'Vonne to be the Instigator of All That's Evil in the World.
• Now Paulie is in on the Get Rid of Da'Vonne Train ... but not this week. He wants Tiffany out this week.
• Paulie and Frank compared their Tiffany notes. 
• At least the ones concerning Da'Vonne.
• The general consensus is that Tiffany goes this week, Da'Vonne next.
• That is ... unless they can get Frank out.
• The drama goes on.

Does he wear those socks and sneaks in real life?

James hasn't been pranking lately

Tiffany is making the rounds, telling her stories

Making the rounds ... still
