We’ve got a ton to get to, including a possible spoiler. However, let’s play a little game of Who We Like vs. Who We Hate.
Sunday night’s TV episode revealed the nominations we had known about for days. Dan and Steven are on the block. It seems that while Dan’s primary offense centered on game-play relative to his alliance with Brian, Steven’s big crime was in not going up to see Jessie’s HoH room.
Within the scope of the Big Brother body politik, this is probably a legitimate offense. Everybody is supposed to go up to see the HoH room as a matter of courtesy, and if I were playing I’d certainly do it as a way of not standing out. To Steven’s defense, he said he had been sleeping and didn’t even know they were all up there.
Which leads me to this: I don’t like Jessie. First, he wants to nominate Renny because of their spat the week before, and now Steven because of this. Jessie seems petty. Furthermore, he’s been making his case to other houseguests that while everybody sees him as “the body,” he’s really got brains, too.
Then why are you targeting people you hate instead of those who could impede you from winning $500,000? Petty.
I don’t know that I’d classify Steven as a “houseguest I like” at this point though, either. I’m pretty neutral on him. On the other hand, I’ve grown to like Dan, the Catholic school teacher. His insistence on loyalty despite the risk with Brian and his willingness to befriend Steven, who’s gay, despite his clear proclamation that he’s uber-conservative come across as genuine.
He seems like good people. Surely somebody out there disagrees with me, right?
In terms of a potential spoiler, we’re pretty sure that Michelle won the PoV competition and decided not to use it. I do not have that confirmed, but I am pretty sure of it. She had insisted that if she did win the PoV that she wouldn’t be using it, so the only surprise would have been if she did.
I bet Natvtxn can confirm this for us one way or the other …
April and Ollie have consummated their showmance, or at least it appears that way.
And it ties in with what has been the theme of the past 24 hours: Big Brother is horny.
Michelle, Keesha, April and Libra all talked about regretting that Big Brother didn’t at least allow them to bring their vibrators. And, at the bottom of this post, I’ve added a video from 8 p.m. BBT Sunday night in which three of the four detail their physical needs in front of Jerry.
Are you creeped out yet? You will be after watching this video!
However, back to tonight’s parlor game. Of our two older contestants, I find myself liking Renny much more than Jerry. It was super sweet though on the TV episode tonight when Jerry revealed his situation regarding his wife’s Parkinson’s disease. Libra teared up, and it was sincerely touching.
So, I’m liking both Renny and Jerry, just that I like our N’awlins socialite a tad more. On the same wavelength, they showed the food comp on TV tonight, and April had made some comment about getting stuck on the same team as the two “old people.”
I don’t like April.
I found it darned funny that it was April’s poor comp performance that hampered her team the most and that Renny was actually pretty good. The comp centered on tubs of wine that were pretty high off the ground. These tubs were designed to spill the wine to the ground below where houseguests would fill up glasses and run a ways to fill up a bottle.
Two people were stationed in each tub above to plug holes so that the other team could not get their wine. Hope I explained it in such a way that you can envision it, but the contest itself was rather anticlimactic aside from April’s inability to get plugs to her team.
Old people rock.
As for the other women, I’d say that I kind of like Keesha and April, and it’s weird. Keesha reminds me more and more of BB8’s Danielle. They sort of look a like and totally sound alike. Libra has had some tense moments this weekend, the start of her second-consecutive week on slop, but she still reminds me of a good Texas girl.
I’m an Okie by birth and by heart, but I do love Texas.
As for the only other two I hadn’t mentioned … Angie still seems to be a target for a nomination here next week or the week after. She seems very nice though, and she’s kind of hot, so I’m having a hard time not liking her. Like Libra, call me crazy, but Angie seems pretty down to Earth.
And, then there’s Memphis. Personally, I’m pretty neutral toward him relative to his game-play so far. However, he has befriended Jessie, which makes him guilty by association. In all my years of watching Big Brother, I’ve never liked anybody less after two weeks than our Iowa bodybuilder.
Is there anybody here whose favorite houseguest is Jessie? We won’t throw things at you. Promise. But, we’d love to know why!
Now for that video I promised. Get ready to feel uncomfortable, especially at that moment when Jerry tells Keesha, Michelle and Libra that he could pretend he was asleep and let them all “send him to heaven.” This is just before Michelle quips, “If you’re willing, I’m able.”
Ewww, gross! Old people still rock though.

So is because she has the power and control this week or is it because she is playing the game in a smart way? I am not sure what it could be. Since she almost won POV last week before losing to Michelle and this week secured the HoH….her week is defiantly all about being in power.
