Big Brother Craze

Another week, another round of pretty, pretty spoiler buttons!

You know the drill, don’t click if you don’t want to know!

Interesting how much just a few hours can change things in the house! We’ve a new HOH, and the LJC alliance is suddenly in the hot seat, and everyone is trying to figure out just how they’re going to work this to ensure the person they want to go home is actually put on the block - and stays there. And also - all the players from the HOH? Looking PRETTY sore and beat up. That was a ROUGH competition.

Some screen caps from the feeds to help you pass the time!

Details: A 3 oz teacup, carried back and forth to fill up a 16 gallon tank, to raise the silver ball through the top where it can be grabbed, put in the other container and carried to the finish line. That works out to 683 trips across the slippery, slidey, pathway, which is about 7 miles of treacherous footing….

(MANY pictures after the cut - and the Result will be posted there too!)

-:15 Just setting up the post! Eager to see Whamber outa there, and a double eviction night! Who’s with me?! Thanks to the East Coast Live Streamers!

:00 Previously, on Big Brother 8!

:03 Good evening, Julie! Looking, beautiful as always. it’s been a week of highs and lows, again. No matter the issues between JEDD, they’ve staid true, but there’s a secret 5th member, and that’s America, and Amber’s gone on the block (And is doing the pet the cat as he promised! HAHAH!) Minutes from now, Amber or Zach will be evicted. But first! What’s love and what’s strategy, isn’t always clear!

:04 Cut to Veto Meeting, and Eric not using it. Amber says Eric is looking out for Eric and he’s here for only himself and doesn’t care for anyone else. everyone congratulates him on his speech, and Zach says he’s not going down without a fight.

:05 Jessica and Eric are in the HOH room, and we see Jessica’s breakdown, and that she feels bad because she put up two people that didn’t have a problem with her at all. She’s worried about Dick and Daniele and worried that she made a mistake. Eric starts talking her back from the edge, reminding her that Amber doesn’t like her - and guess who’s at the door! Amber - and cue the tears. She says she’s worked hard for this (Um. when?) And she hopes that they vote and do the right thing and wants people who are deserving to win it, the good people!

Eric tells us she has one argument - the good people argument, but he’s had enough of her crying and weak gameplay. Afterwards, Jessica says that she wants to keep her, but knows she’s going to be the one to go, she can tell.

:07 Dick tells Zach that he’s going to stay. Zach says he’d rather to take him to the final two. Dick says everyone wants to win, and he wants to break up Amber and Jameka. Zach will be happy with second place, and if he has the chance at HOH he’s putting up Jessica and Jameka and backdoor Eric. Dick tells him only if he’s offered up Dick or Daniele as back door will he go - flashback to when he did that, and he then lies to Dick.

:09 It’s the Amber and Jameka doubleteam against Jessica. They say Eric ran her HOH, and they’re positive that Eric has a deal with D/D - and Amber is positive he’d throw the HOH so he doesn’t get pictures of his ex on the wall. Jessica says she’d keep Amber in event of a tie - Amber says she was a manipulator of her boyfriend and she can see Eric doing the same thing. Jessica tells us that Amber bashed on Eric and Jessica has been aligned with him the entire time, and now she’s confused. Eric intrurrupts, and they go downstairs and Amber and Jameka know she needs Daniele’s vote.

:11 Amber gets to Daniele and plays the good person and she’s going to have her back and SWEARS ON HER LITTLE GIRLS LIFE again. Daniele tells us it would be in her best interest if Amber would stay because she wouldn’t be nominated.

:12 Time for America’s Task! As we suspected, we voted to evict Amber. She’s causing trouble and masquerading as one of the “good people” and needs to get of her high horse. Eric gets to work, and talks to Jessica. This is the fight/makeup/conversation that we saw the other night on the feeds that was hours long, and Eric pointed out repeatedly how two-faced Amber was with Jessica and her trashing Eric, and how she used drugs and all of that and keeps saying she’s a good person and don’t get carried away. Just because this week she’s kissing ass does not mean she has Jessica’s back, and is causing problems with the only one who has her back.

:15 Dick, Eric and Jessica talk and Dick they compare stories about how Zach is telling each pair that he’d put the other pair up. Dick says he’s going to confront him.

:16 Coming up, Jameka’s family and pastor talk about her and spread some news she doesn’t know yet. And Eric and Jessica - are the feelings real, or is Eric America’s “playah”?

Sorta. The houseguests were on lockdown “until further notice” earlier today. Shortly after midnight, they were advised they were on semi-lockdown status, which means Dick can go outside and smoke, but there are no conversations allowed outside, and no one can look under the tarp, and no one can step off the certain area.

They’ve discussed all the possibilities they can think of, from slip and slide competitions to tug of war, and contemplating sending Zach and Amber out to peek under the tarp and take the penalty nom for the team and tell them exactly what’s under there.

….I go to sleep for TWO HOURS before I get the kids up for school, and come back to find Jessica and Eric STILL awake and talking. Not only that, but after checking around the boards, I found out that Eric confessed to being the stray votes AND doing the mustard! From all reports, he did not say why, just that he was responsible. Jessica was laughing and giggling, and so he’s gotten away with telling her his big secret in the game, and still maintaining her support and gaining points for honesty.

(ps - she DOES have a shirt on in this picture. honest. *L*)

Whew!
Partial video - them laughing about the mustard incident:

As of now, they’ve JUST gone to sleep at 8:30am BB time, and as soon as my kids are off to school, I’m following their lead and going back to bed myself. After all - what ELSE could happen over the next couple hours? (Insert dryly amused look HERE.)

As in my head thudding against the desk. Oy. Jessica and Eric finally get a chance to talk, and here comes Jameka to cockblock. Sigh. I was hoping to get sleep sometime tonight. Not gonna happen!

Annnnnnd here comes ZACH too! To tell them about Dick falling into the pool on accident - with his mic on! Uh oh… BB “Dick. Please exchange your microphone with one in the storage room.” hahahah!

Zack is gone - and here comes DICK! To confirm the rumors of him falling in the pool.

Finally!

(more…)

This time they play with TWO quarters (thanks to the producers allowing them another quarter) and in teams, girls vs. boys. Start opposite sides, and shoot till you hit, pass it on. If you end up with both cups in front of you, your team looses.

The girls had a LONG ASS powwow before the game, resulting in the boys already being drunk, sharing 13 beers between them,

while Amber and Jameka worked over Jess to get her to turn against Eric. It included a lot of circular reasoning, backtracking, lies, professions of honesty, swearing on daughters (yes. again.), more lies, some truth, and making sure that anything Eric’s ever done/said that could be pushed and twisted is brought up over and over again. Hypocritical BS irritates me! And Jessica looked like she was starting to buy into it too. Hopefully Eric can talk her down. Again.

Anyway -

(more…)

Previously, on Big Brother 8! Eric failed to take his romance with Jessica to the next level again- and again… (hahahhah! Poor Eric. He got no game. At least he KNOWS he ain’t got no game, though!)

After the recap, we rejoin our Hamsters right after the nomination ceremony, where Zach tells us that Jessica told him she could trust him, and it was a bold faced lie and he’ll get her back if he gets the chance. Amber still believes she’s safe and God is looking out for her, and she won’t show doubt. Dick is proud that his alliance is rolling through the house like a steamroller. Daniele knows that you can’t trust anyone 100%, but she’ll wait and see.

Amber goes to bed, to cry and pray, and prays in the DR too, begging for help to be strong. (As my friend Jamie just screamed in my AIM window FFS WHAMBER!)

Daniele talks to Zach and tells him he can’t expect to be there and not get nominated. And he says he’s screwed for the POV if he doesn’t win it and is playing on shaky ground.

Jameka and Eric join Jessica in the HOH room, where Jameka thanks her, and she tells us that she was surprised that Amber was nominated. Daniele joins and says Zach is upset, and Jessica feels that he’ll hate her. Jameka is still hoping the POV will be used and Daniele would be backdoored. She goes right to Amber and says that she can’t get any information about back door or anything. Amber is safe if they stay the same because Zach will go. They’re both quite confident in this.

Errisica time! Firty time from the night they stayed up all night outside. Jessica is giggling and says she sees wedding bells in the future and they get all cuddly. Aw…

OMG Monks Chanting! Brilliant! Cue Jameka’s crying sobbing praying in the HOH room. She tells us she felt compelled to give thanks for being out to live out her dreams, but they were thankful tears, I’m not worthy tears, you continue to amaze me tears. Jessica joins, and checks on her and gives her a hug. Jessica tells us that first she thought she’d fallen and hurt herself, but that she was praying. She tells Jameka that she doesn’t talk about it, but she’s into church too, but she doesn’t bring it up in the house and she understands and praying in there is totally cool. And they talk a bit about her being Catholic. Jameka tells us it was nice to hear.

Thanks to the East Coast Viewers who are sweet enough to live stream the shows for us other coastal viewers that allows me to recap!

And here they are! Drew tells them we have flying cars, and that he’s the new Price is Right host. Amber says if she wins she’ll give the money to her family, and Daniele says she needs a car and wants to go back to school. And only one of them will get the chance to play after the first round. Here we go!

What percentage of Americans have danced the Macarena? 48%
Amber wins!
What percentage are working 2 or more jobs? 16%
Amber wins AGAIN! OMG.
What percentage have looked inside the medicine cabinet of someone else’s out? 41%
Amber wins AGAIN and beats out Daniele!

(It’s presumed that the Houseguests got to watch this broadcast last night, though they are not allowed to speak of it until their dinner tonight. Daniele was depressed, and Jessica slipped and said “because she didn’t get to see Nick?” and Dick had also made a comment about the “Nick thing” ruining her game and that she needs to let it go. She also made a comment about any viewers want to buy her a car which upset Dick and Zach both. I expected this, though was completely unsure HOW it could happen. STILL confused. *L* but here we go!)

Time for the pretty button!

Laaaast chance! Don’t click if you don’t want to know!

We started with Zooma Zooma. We moved on to spin the bottle (where when Amber asked who was the next evicted houseguest, the bottle pointed to her five times IN A ROW!). And then, it was on to quarters - complete with making rules! And things went nuts from there!

Some of the rules on various people’s turns:
Jess: says “I miss the touch of Carol.”
Zach: oink oink - when it’s Jess’s turn - The bottle never lies, you’re going home on Thursday every time Amber speaks. Tip toe to Nicks picture, rub his chest and say “It’s your loss, not mine!” when someone gets one in. First to say that Eric has a huge C*ck.
Dick: Run and tongue Jen’s picture and say he misses her SO much when someone gets one it.

Dani: One foot on the chair and shimmy.
Eric: when it’s Zachs turn, say “panty muncher” followed by…
Jameka: toss her pony tail and seductively say “I have panties for you…” - she has to declare she has tits smaller than carols on Jess’s turn.
All HG: wave their hands and say How Sad when Amber says a catch phrase, take turns asking Eric about his diary room session.
Eric: Take off his shirt and pull on his nipples and declare love for houseguest Dick
Amber: each turn she has to say she did everything she could to turn Dustin straight.

And THEN it got CRAZY…. On Dick’s turn alone, we have the following happen EVERY TIME:
Amber: Eric, your penis is so big, remember when I poked it?
Daniele: I want you to know, Eric, it wasn’t Nick I had a crush on, it was you - and a kiss on the cheek.
Jessica: Straddles Eric’s lap and says “Oh Eric!”
Dick: Pushes Jess off, straddles Eric’s lap and says “He’s MINE!”
Jameka: Pushes Dick off, grabs Eric’s nipple rings and says “Ride me like a cowboy!”
Eric: Runs and falls to one knee in front of Carol’s picture and proposes to her.

And one last rule from Eric - Every time its Zach’s turn, Jessica and Jameka have to hug one of his thighs and say “Six foot five is not enough… we need more panty munchin’ Zach”.

After they ran out of the alcohol - 18 beers, and 2 bottles of wine, everyone declared it a night that was VERY fun, and long overdue, and that they should have been playing with rules all along! Zach went to bed, Jessica and Eric hit the hottub, and everyone is in high spirits.

I love drunken houseguests!

Last time, on Big Brother 8….

After the recap, we rejoin our houseguests right after the eviction of Jen, with Dick telling us how excited he is that Jen’s gone, and reminds us that he’s hated her since day one and now they can move. Daniele regrets hugging Jen, and says she’s one of a kind and hopes not to encounter her again. Jess tells us that Jen’s last words made her nervous, figured it was something about someone in the house. Eric says he said whatever one was thinking, he just blurted it out. Dick reminds us it was the easiest vote out. Even Amber is happy and didn’t cry at all, and she’s happy to have them. And Jen’s picture goes black and white. Dick “She said it would look better black and white as soon as she saw it and she was right!”

We flashback to the HOH competition, and Jessica’s win Eric tells us that he’s overjoyed and happy that they’ll both be sitting in the final six. Dick says it’s fantastic because he and Daniele are safe. Jameka says she trusts Jess and thinks she is safe as well. And so Daniele. And Zach. Is it just me or is EVERYONE way too comfortable at this point? Amber says she prayed for Jess to get it and tada! Finally, a prayer answered for Amber

Jessica and Eric celebrate, talk briefly about game, but decide to celebrate for tonight, talk game later. (Eric is learning!) Amber is sure that Jessica will put up Dick and Daniele again and that Amber has a good shot at HOH because Jess can’t compete if it’s endurance. Amber says she knows Jessica and Eric are playing both sides, but her instincts tell her that she’ll put up the Donatos.

Eric and Jessica flirty time! Here’s the 30 minute private time convo! How did I miss this convo? This is so cute, and Eric admits he has absolutely no game. Oh Eric, we know, we know. WhatEVER.. (Jessica voice, of course!)

Jessica gets her HOH room, and the guys love the dance team pictures, and Dick points out the outfits are awful. And tells us the team is ugly - except Jessica. And everyone loves the BooYah! shirt! (ED: Speaking of - her dance team is selling copies of the BOOYAH! shirt for charity, if your so inclined)

(more…)

See what happens when I decide to sleep early? Or at all, apparently. (L)

The Final Four alliance finally got together all in one room and did their bros to the end handshake - and named themselves the Little Julie Chens. Why? Why not? Better then the Kanjewnatos they were thinking of!

And - it was a bit like Jr High all over again, most likely due to the cameras that Jessica is ever aware of - but at last, Errisica fans, we have LIFTOFF!

Awwwwwww…. in the words of Jessica: Finally!

And all the Houseguests are finally asleep as of 9:30 BB time, and that means I can go finish my nap too. Happy Sunday, BB Fans!

…so to speak! Finding some various things around the house, Jessica came out of the HOH room yelling “ERIC! ERIC STIEN! You owe some CHILD SUPPORT!”

She came down stairs “Gonna get my MAN back! ERIC STIEN! Why you LEAVE us?”

(That’s a toy rat in her top, and the wig was found in Jen’s drawer.)

Eric held up the rat and asked when she had the ‘lil baby!’
Jessica “You don’t remember when you left us?!”
Eric “How do I know it’s mine?”
Jessica “LOOK at it!”

All of which is twice as amusing knowing that so many people on the boards call Eric a rat or weasel. (grin) Gotta love life in the BB House!
