BB19: Live Feeds into Tuesday Evening - July 11

Not a typical "stay at home dad"

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Not So Trendy Toads:

• I still insist those costumes are FROGS not toads, BB! And, since lily pads are used, they're FROGS. Toads are often more brown, some with spots, many with lumps and their skin is rough. Toads are not usually connected to lily pads.
• I had to get that out of my system.
• The house is in the doldrums today with down time.
• It's even more mundane than the doldrums usually are because this week's eviction is just about set in stone and everybody knows it.
• The most exciting thing I saw on the feeds today was another scrolling banner above them which indicates Thursday will be another late night -- the comp will once again finish out on the live feeds.
• Jessica cried about Cody leaving. He comforted her instead of saying she was making victim noises. That must be one of his reserved for men things.
• Kevin mentioned that he feels sorry for Jessica, but she's done nothing to help her own situation by not interacting with anyone by Cody.
• Others agree.
• Raven comforted her.
• No one is planning on being cruel to her after Cody goes.
• They're just planning on putting her on the eviction list.
• It's been Cody and Jessica with the mean streak -- for example, the laughing about Josh and his crying, thinking of ways to tease him about it when it's obviously a sensitive issue.
• Matt told Christmas that he'd like to make it to jury, but doesn't expect to win. He thinks Raven or Paul have the best chance of winning this season. Of those two, he'd prefer Raven.
• Hmm. He'd prefer his showmance girl (although not AS bad as Cody/Jessica) over Paul? Shocking!
• Kevin's tooth didn't get pulled yet.
• Dang, they're kind of entertaining themselves.
• But they're boring to watch right now.
• I don't anticipate things to get much better tomorrow.
• But Thursday will bring new life into the game. 

Does anyone wear sunglasses indoors?

Toad time

Fitting in better

All that and a bag of chips

BB19: Live Feeds into Tuesday Morning - July 11

Gag me with a spoon, please

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Hamster Hijinks:

• I want to warn you all right now -- there will be NO victim noises allowed in the comments here. None! I don't want to hear it! Buck up, buckos! You've been warned.
• Ahem.
• Not a heck of a lot has happened since I last reported.
• Cody and Jessica have exiled themselves from all of the activities that everyone else enjoyed.
• The rest had a pool tournament.
• Then they all celebrated Dominque's birthday at midnight.
• About the most tense moment of the night was when Dominque confronted Mark about being a personal trainer -- she counted the cookies and Reese's cups he ate in one sitting.
• He pretty much just kept smiling.
• Now, Mark could never make it on Survivor -- what he eats in one day would last the show cast for a week on that show.
• Kevin and Ramses are funny to watch when they go at each other. Nothing mean, mind you. Just funny.
• Oh. Kevin won the pool tournament. He has a pool table and probably has been playing pool longer than some of the others have been alive.
• Hmm. Christmas says her surgery (on Wednesday) will take four to six hours. I think she might me she'll be gone that long. I've had knee replacements that took less time than that!
• The BB voice kept reprimanding Josh for both singing and playing with his microphone.
• The BB voice also spoke to all of them who were complaining about the air conditioning.
• Beside the yearly ants, the AC always seems to be an issue.
• They need to stop making victim noises about the AC and deal with it like hamsters!
• Later! 

What? No cat ears?

BB19: Live Feeds - PoV Meeting, Renom Monday - July 10

Cool Cat

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Wackadoodle Wombats:

• This is going to be rather short and quick due to my real life work schedule today. Apologies.
• The Veto Meeting, blocked to the live feeds, went down early in the day.
• Surprise, surprise! Cody is now on the block!
• Paul saved Josh.
• So, going into Thursday we have Cody, Alex and Ramses on the block.
• Oh my. Who do you think will be voted out?
• Heehee.
• Paul told Kevin that he should vote for Ramses just to throw people off.
• Some think that Kevin spends too much time with Ramses.
• Kevin told them he feels sorry for the kid and doesn't talk game with him.
• No, I haven't seen Kevin talking game with him.
• Cody and Jessica sat eating slop in their stunning little toad (frog) costumes.
• Here's one reason why Jessica is deemed a mean girl by many -- she suggested Cody go by Josh and asked if he changed his diaper today.
• Both Cody and Jessica laughed a lot about how Josh has cried every day since Day 1, etc., etc.
• At one point the conversation went from the cost of living in different places in California to medical and recreational marijuana.
• Yep, Paul is in CA while Christmas is in CO.
• No one's in Kansas anymore.
• Laters! 

Heh. Love me some bad screen caps.

Remains on the block

BB thinks frogs are toads

BB19: Live Feeds into Monday Morning - July 10

Talk, talk, talk

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Redundant Rodents:

• Not a heck of a lot going on due to the inevitability of the Backdoor Cody Plan.
• In a conversation with Elena, Mark said his normal breakfast is ten eggs, a bowl of oatmeal and more.
• Oh my.
• No wonder he's such a big guy!
• Kevin is worried because Alex is telling Jason that Kevin was the flip vote.
• Paul told him he'd straighten things out with Jason and reminded Kevin of their $25,000 secret.
• Alex complained that Matt was drinking diet soda while he's a Have Not.  He didn't know (he says). Then he put salad dressing on his slop, also not allowed, I guess.
• Apparently salad dressing might be allowed. They have a list of no-nos and it's not on the list.
• I find Alex's bathing suit almost akin to practically naked. It's not just me -- BB told her she can't be in the Diary Room wearing it. Heh. She complained that the guys can go in there shirtless.
• Ramses kind of admitted to Christmas that he didn't throw the Veto comp (as he agreed with Paul he would do). He told her that he made a promise to himself that he would never throw a comp and kept that promise.
• Paul and company aren't the only ones mad at Ramses over not throwing the comp and almost winning.
• Alex told Jason how mad she is about it. After all, had Ramses won, she might have been the one going home this week.
• Christmas's foot surgery will be happening Wednesday.
• That's a scary thought. I can only hope she remains in the game. But she certainly would have a valid reason to back out if she needs to do so.
• Cody smiled.
• I almost fainted.
• They're all sleeping as I get this posted. 

Playing pool

Too much whispering!

He smiled and his face didn't crack

BB19: Live Feeds into Sunday Evening - July 9

He's surprised to still be in there

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Misfit Toys:

• The big worry on Paul's side and hope for Cody/Jessica is that there is some sort of Battle Back.
• I think it's a valid worry.
• I haven't really seen any gone besides Megan and Cameron out on the post-show interview circuit. Perhaps I just haven't looked since Jillian went.
• But if they're being sequestered, we should be able to pick up on that sooner than the house hamsters will.
• While Josh thinks he's the most picked-on disliked one in the house (and makes all those "victim noises" according to Cody), Ramses seems to take the prize for that.
• Since Kevin lied to Cody and Jessica about his vote, they're sure it was Ramses betraying them.
• And, Paul is ticked at him for almost winning veto when the deal was to throw it.
• Ramses isn't playing a great game. He's like a kid in a candy store -- great for him, but annoying to the adults around him.
• Watching Kevin, I think he's a huge observer kind of guy. The hamsters love his stories and his sense of humor, but dismiss gameplay. I dunno. I think his wheels are turning.
• Hmm? Did Cody quit his real life job for this? He made a comment to Jessica about needing to figure out what he's going to do for work (after he goes).
• Dang, I would have just asked for a personal unpaid leave of absence. Mind you, I'd never go on the show in the first place.
• Cody complained about all the men on the show intimidated by women.
• I'm surprised he hasn't started grunting like "Tim the Tool Man."
• The ants are back in the kitchen once again.
• Josh had a big conversation with the camera. He claims that he's really on the side of Alex and Jason, but had to stay in favor of the seven with his vote.
• Um, kiddo. That's called playing both sides of the house.
• Not long after that, Christmas worked more at molding her Josh puppet.
• I don't see any other outcome this week than Cody going home.
• I will cry no tears. I don't want him to think I'm making victim noises or being just a weak woman. 

Frogs take off their suits in the pool

Elena makes a point

Maybe the cat ears make her seem tall

Nope, not pin-up material

Tells stories, but listens intently, too.
