Season 18 Live Feed Discussion: Their Lives are Almost as Boring as Ours!

[Umbelina]

Michele and Bridge arguing about who is meaner and who is more fake.

[MV007]

Bridget and Michele setting the female gender back 25 years right now.

".  In the first week Paul said that when he is HOH he will gather everyone together and ask for volunteers to go on the block and they will decide together.  From that was born a meeting to put everything on the table so people would stop getting their feelings hurt."

 Sorry I am having trouble getting  quote feature to work.  Actually that was Jozea,  it was during his "I would be the best benevolent king ever" ever speech.

 As a personal aside, I had jury duty today. Not nearly as exciting as BB or survivor jury.   Wait let me rethink that, since they changed the format of BB jury, it was probably on par. ?

ETA:.  As obssessed as these fame whores are with the cameras, when it's on them etc.… I would think a few well-timed zooms  should be all it would take.

Oh, girls. You both are equally as mean and fake :)

I believe this was a plan already in place.  There would be no reason for the Departure board otherwise.  Why the phone booth upstairs?  They have to lay out the season, challenges and twists well before this starts.  They may possibly tweak other small things of shift a comp to favor someone but I tend to doubt that since they are designed for a specific number of people. 

 

Honestly, I want to believe this, but the only reason I am skeptical because I have to question why they would only build the secret room this past week instead of earlier on? It's not like the houseguests would have ever found it before the twist even started. Michelle said she heard drilling in James' HOH room and that it's why they think it's Pandora's Box. So, why do it this week and not pre-season if the plan was that all along?

[Katesus7]

Michelle is just the worst in this conversation with Bridgette.  I don't particularly like Bridgette, but boy do I get her frustration with Michelle in this conversation, which is basically going like this:

Bridgette:  What did I do??? Let's fix it!

Michelle:  Reasons!

And now Bridgette told her she defended Michelle when Jozea was talking shit about her, and now that's all Michelle cares about.  She is SO insecure.

They might just be messing around back there, even if it's building sets for something else or just to play with the HG's minds. I remember back in BB16, there was some noise and building sounds coming from the walls that the HGs mentioned. Some feedsters got their hopes up for a Pandora's box/secret room but nothing ever panned out. The room had probably already been built and any noise now is not a direct result of that.

I remember it being Paul but it could have been either. Jozea had some out there ideas, too. Both of them had idealistic notions.

The room did not have to be built, it already existed (Pandora's box).  The noise Michele heard might have been a repair.  I can see them testing some moving part that was remotely controlled only to find it didn't work.  Or it could have been unrelated, roof, air conditioner, any number of things. 

[Wings]

Michele is over the top and it makes me think back to her antics of fake boyfriend and FB page. And those are things she admitted to (god knows why).  There could be more.   Disturbing.  

We are going to need a plate cleanser for next season.  Maybe another All Star season or Super Fans.   HGs who don't understand the game is not working.  I get why they tried it, something different.    

[Lady Calypso]

Ah, ok! Well then, I guess I could definitely be wrong!

It must be awkward for anyone who needs to use the washroom, because Bridgette/Michelle are still hashing it out. Michelle is very much stubborn on her self esteem issues. Bridgette doesn't want to rat on the people who have made fun of Michelle's appearance (I don't even remember who they would be). Girl, you owe them nothing. Rat away, mostly because I do want to see the fallout. 

James was eavesdropping and is telling Natalie what's going on. And now the fight is over. 

[Umbelina]

At least Michelle admits to being a bitch, fake ass squealer Bridge keeps saying how nice she is. 

 

Needed some hair pulling for the full effect.  I'm sure, more to follow.  James spying was the best part.

THROW THEM UNDER THE BUS. Come on Bridgette, those boys (well, Paul) don't want you there. Raaaaaaaaaat. 

I want a Big Meech vs Paul Showdown, except not in rap form this time.

[Wings]

Just before it cut to Jeff for veto ceremony Michele was on a roll.  Someone said something about her appearance and Nat and Bridget stood up for her.  The point of that was how Bridget stood up for her.  Now she is fixated on who it was and what they said.  James says what they said is not important, who said it is.  Well no sireee bob!  Michele HAS to know what was said about her looks.  Did they say I was fat?    Piece of work that girl.

Honestly, I just find it sad that the only thing she took out of that conversation was that one little thing. All she cares about is what other people think of her. No matter what Bridgette said after that, Michelle's stuck on that. It probably is better to not tell her, and I'm glad Day and Nat at least confirmed what Bridgette said about defending her was true. Too bad that won't sink in with her. I feel sorry for her, really, in that she can't let go of this.

[Brian Cronin]

Yeah, I've said for a while now that few people in this world carry their baggage QUITE as noticeably as Michelle does hers. 

[Umbelina]

Michelle is going to figure out that her left-over desired showmance Paul probably said it.  This house is a tinder box right now after this morning.  Things could change rapidly all over the place. 

 

I hope.

She guessed it was Paul who said it. 

[Wings]

People who know Michele are probably on twitter talking about her display, I don't think she is well liked and that may be an understatement.

My fondest wish is that things will change drastically.  These women have to have something more to focus on other than their hate.  Something has to get them into this game.  Just having read my words that cannot happen.  You have to have an understanding of what it takes to play it and a desire to win.

Excellent!  Now maybe she can shift her attention to getting him out.  A step in the right direction!!

There has been so much strife around Tiffany, Michele and Bridget I have forgotten what Nicole did and why so many don't trust her!  She will never be able to mend that rupture, because she is not hard wired to address things head on.  And, she is distracted by not gay Cory.  

[Umbelina]

Nat exposing Bridgette as a liar, tells Michelle that Bridgette NEVER spoke up when Michelle was being trashed, that only Nat did.  Confirms it was Paul or Victor.  Michelle immediately said "Paul."  She's going to ask him.

Nat has HAD IT with Bridgette.  Done.

Quote

Julie Chen revealed a new twist on the Big Brother After Show, which needs a CBS All Access membership to watch (try it here for free), a new twist that will be involving the fans during next Thursday’s live show. She couldn’t reveal too much, obviously, but just enough to get us fans hyped and ready for it!

During the next live Thursday episode, they’re going to unleash a new twist where people at home can impact the game. Julie went on to say that you’ll be able to strategize how you’ll want to impact the game with other fans. Sadly, that was all Julie was allowed to divulge, but it sure does sound like something that could turn out to be really interesting to watch!

I am not going to like this.  I just know it.

Just watched that.  She sure changed her tune from her talk with James last night!  

[Lady Calypso]

I guess after Bridgette lied about sticking up for Michelle about the Buzz Lightyear comment, in particular, Natalie snapped. She was the only one that didn't feel comfortable with that comment. I'd be pretty sick with a lie like that too. 

It sounds like Corey's a heartbroken girlfriend by that wording. Breaking his heart? You may be over-exaggerating or whatever, but Corey....you're not helping your case here. 

Frank really wants to go home....it would be a shame if the votes were flipped....But seriously, could you picture Frank being blindsided by not going home, followed by him powerhousing through the HOH competition, screaming "I TOLD YOU IDIOTS TO VOTE ME OUT. EITHER FINALS OR HOME, NO JURYYYYYYYY"? 

[Umbelina]

Not really though, Natalie has been wary of Bridgette since she carried tales to Frank, and then when she accusing Natalie of voting out Bronte, trust was completely gone.  She's tried to look to her better side, but this latest set of lies was her final straw.

[Umbelina]

Natalie just clarified.  She's friends with her on a personal basis, but she doesn't talk game with Bridge, not a game friend.

This is hysterical!  The opposite of how it usually goes.  I get her logic, though.  She wants to play the game with someone who doesn't lie.  Good luck with that!

Man, what is with these houseguest and their inability to see their own shittiness? Now Paul is stating that he's such a good person and it's not in his nature to be mean. 

Dudes, if you're a shitty person, then own it. I can honestly say that I can be a shitty person. Apparently, these assholes can't.

Natalie just told Michele to let it go, put this behind you and remember we are in a game to win 500k.  KUdos.

[Katesus7]

Today he's trying to say it was because of her big, blue eyes.  I'm not buying it.  Paul was pretty nasty about some of the HGs that first week. 

[gunderda]

He also mentioned she had her hair pulled back one day that also added into the 'name calling'

She does! And I love that about her.  Except her little tiff with Bridgette this morning she was saying the shit talking was game play, she wasn't really owning up to all of it.  But generally Michelle does not BS a person.

He was just covering his ass because he told Michele that was the reason!  Walked up to HOH and repeated that to James shortly after for back up!  LOL!  James already heard that from Natalie when it happened.  He likes Buzz and didn't think it was bad.  

Silly stuff.

I googled Buzz to get a close look.  Nothing there that is insulting. I don't get why Buzz would leap to mind other than what he told Michele.  It was not like he said she looked like like Mr Burns !

I'm not sure why Bridgette thought it was really mean either.  And mean enough to bring it out many many weeks later. I'm not sure how Bridgette thought that would help her case by saying "yea but these people said these bad things about you week 2 and I stood up for you"

[mooses]

The fact that Michelle cannot get over that eyebrow thing is ridiculous. Right before that, Paul said something about her dying, and she can sleep in the same bed as him now.

She definitely has issues - from the fake boyfriend to her calling out a Reddit commenter just because she had disagreed with her. 

James is definitely not with Da'Vonne. Told Corey that he heard from her that they're working with Frank. So Da'Vonne will definitely be the target next week unless she wins something, or unless Michelle/Bridgette have any say. It seems like he's serious about this thing with Paulie/Corey.

This feels like the leakiest set of HGs I've seen. Most of them cannot hold onto information for even a full 24 hours.

Backyard boys conversation started about 10 minutes ago.  James shared that Corey and Nicole may be shady, had a deal with Frank, per Day.  They discuss bootlists, and Paulie says they may keep Nat (all of the above was when it was just the two of them) says Natalie could be our Victoria.

Then the boys all talk, very misogynistic on Paulie's part and Paul's of course and they all discuss the truth of Nicole's finale two with Frank.

Frank out "for sure."

[Wings]

Interesting conversation with the boys.  Jokers has the breakdown.   What I walked away with is they are 100% with Frank going.  Next week they want Bridget and Day on the block together, telling Day she is the pawn but will vote her out,  Bridget is next. 

James is the most logical and genuine of the group. He is keeping his cards close to his chest. He said as little as he could to let Paulie know he was with him.  He may or may not be, who knows.  Paulie trusts James and did not tell Paul or Cory, when they walked up everything he had said to James.  He later had more private conversation in BR with James.  Paulie trusting James the most is legit.  Now we know why he is not eager to respond to Nat telling him Paulie is shady.  

ETA. James is a better player than I thought.  He is getting information from Day but has no plan to keep her.

Paulie has said that Natalie can be their Victoria and Michelle (I think, or Z) can be their Christine. And still no one worries about him playing Derrick/Cody's game. 
And the fact that James isn't too forthcoming with Natalie but tells a lot of true information with Paulie says a lot IMO. He talks game with Natalie, but mostly tells her half-truths, protects Paulie with her (like saying Frank said things that Paulie actually said), and doesn't correct her when she has bad information. 

Somehow, Nicole/Corey getting exposed got turned into Da'Vonne being the bad guy. So, basically, Nicole is golden. 

I would love a Da'Vonne/Bridgette HOH to shake up the House. It'd be silly for Day to target Bridgette, and vice versa. Otherwise, one of them is gone next week. But it'd probably just end somehow with Victor going home, so I don't have much hope.

Edited July 25, 2016 by mooses

[Wings]

Everything that transpired in that conversation was honest as far as who Paulie wanted out next. It made sense. It was sprinkled with BS of course.  James was listening, nodding and offered a few statements.  He did not give away where he actually stood.  As I have thought more on that I am not sure that James is with them on booting Day next week.  I suspect he wants to keep her around as long as he can.  It appeared he was on board but I am not so sure.  He stays in the moment and observes.  He has no plan that goes further than the week.

I was hoping this secret twist would make feeds (discovery/info sharing) more interesting. Maybe they'll figure things out soon? #BB18

I'm actually kind of dreading this twist thing. If it allows HGs to do something like change nominations, I would hate if most of these HGs got it. Like, how awful if Paulie gets another power? Yuck.

Exactly. Like if that's it then it'll only really be worthwhile if Day, Natalie, or maybe Bridgette gets it. Those aren't good odds.
