Thanks for the great season, y'all. I was supposed to skip this one but I just can't seem to quit you. See you all again next season which is probably gonna suck because this is still Big Brother, after all - I just want to get a jump on hating the new season, you know, stretch those muscles a little since they didn't get much use this season. Also I just want to point out - this is my first season without a single fucking mod warning (no, it's too late, you can't send me one now, it doesn't count, nyah nyah). Not one deleted post. This is growth. I have grown. I'll have to try harder next season.

P.S. If anyone knows of an east coast stream of Big Brother tonight, please hit up my inbox. I promise not to nominate you for eviction if I win HoH. And if I do, it's because I need someone I can trust in the AI Arena but there's usually a line of volunteers for that position so you should be safe. Totally.

Are we there ye- oh, we kinda are. Damn. Now what am I going to do every morning instead of posting that - housework? Yard work?! Ugh.

Are we there yet?

I thought we were stuck with Cody Cauliflower for the round table? I'm not mad about Taylor but I hope the chip bags don't make an appearance. I'm still not over all the chip bag and chewing noises from her season. I saw people talking about how they figure Taylor is being primed to take over for Julie Chen and I... don't see that. But sure.

Are we there yet?

AMA link to reddit This was a week ago or so. There's a lot of junk but there's also a lot of gold in between. I think he talks a lot of bullshit about his own game approach but his perspective was interesting. I think I'm mixing up some of his comments there with another interview (I couldn't find the Chelsie thing I was thinking of unless I missed it in my scrolling) but still, interesting to see the difference between how we see things versus how he experienced them. ETA: Be sure to unnest some of the comment chains. He follows up occasionally.

Look, I'm the biggest Joseph's Mustache hater out there but I'll say: the dude did a solid AMA on r/BigBrother not that long ago. Like a real, actual AMA where he answered questions and didn't just give three word answers to the easy ones. Hearing his perspective on Chelsie and T'Kor and Angela in the house versus how they were perceived outside the house now that he's had that step-back moment was actually interesting. He may have even made me a fan temporarily and I don't think I was the only one. It never lasts long than three minutes so I've never seen my doctor about it.

Man, that's Thanksgiving for me. I was planning on being well into my second stuffing-and-gravy induced food coma at that point. I'll have to find an early stream to watch with you guys or else I'm probably gonna crash and forget it ended.

Some of y'all really want T'Kor to be some Big Bad of the season when she was just... there. Occasionally talking game. Mostly just lounging. Not giving angry, frothing at the mouth screeds or stomping around telling people that they can't sit at her table because they're not the same. Just there. Playing the game like everyone else.

Even my husband has given up on watching the shows until the finale. When I told him that it was a 2 hour episode yesterday because there was none on Wednesday, he heaved the world's biggest sigh and said, "Just fill me in." YOU'VE WATCHED AROUND EIGHT HOURS OF CONTENT MINUS COMMERCIALS, BUDDY. Call me when you sit through a whole season, then you can bitch about it taking soooo long.

I certainly care extremely less now that my #1 and #2 picks have been taken out in the double. Well, that and congrats on making final five, it's a huge accomplishment in Big Brother, but also I check out at this point because it's boring and they do nothing but lay around and practice their final 2 speeches. So props to @Rodney, who I believe can go the distance to the end after running most of this marathon and be the sacrificial lamb (canary in the coalmine? It's my first cup of coffee and it's a confusing zoo) we send to the feeds to keep us updated on the lack of going-ons. I may have just voluntold you but know that I did it with nothing but good and love and a real dislike of late game feeds in my heart.

So basically the whole Ainsley/Chenbot thing is just for questions for the next HoH comp. k cool. I'll delete that one off the DVR. The husband caught a clip of Angela yelling "Crazy eyes!!!!1" at Matt and immediately got sucked in. Thanks, Global. I planned on going through the whole season without watching the show and now I'm fucking recording it twice a week for my husband to watch over dinner the next night. I don't know what I did wrong in a past life but I'm definitely paying for something here.

I don't know why I'm surprised but it makes me laugh that Makensy is still holding onto the fact that they broke up her week 1 potential showmance/Pretty People Staring In Mirrors alliance and is in her revenge era. There's always one that holds onto some stupid thing (Matt) from the first few days and uses it to fuel their endgame. At least she's not crying into a hat, I guess.

Yay, it's time for the battle back - whoops good thing you didn't unpack because you're going back to the jury house revolving door comp. Woo. Hi Quinn. Bye Quinn. See you again on finale night.
