I could see that. I would add Natalie to that list as well.

LOL crazy coincidence, I was actually just looking for a GIF of this to use in my sig.

I would've just used this one if I saw it first. :joker:

I still wouldn't be surprised if Paul leaves this week, that's just the kind of thing this **** season would do to me :rolleyes:

If she uses it or not either way Michelle is going home. I hope she keeps it the same and James and Natalie force Nicole to break the tie. You know she's gonna love having to do that. :joker:

Something would have to go horribly wrong because right now he has Victor's & Nicorey's votes for sure. But there IS a long time between the veto ceremony & eviction so I guess it's always possible. :worry:

:joker: crazy coincidence indeed.

The friendship dance gave me life.. I can't believe i didn't like Paul week 1, now I love him.

I think James is being underestimated and Nicole can be persuaded. Watch it flip to Paul being evicted.

I remember being in the 1% of people who liked Paul from the very first episode. :flutter:

Nicole could be persuaded I guess but I don't think James is underestimated. I do think he is one of the dumbest players to play Big Brother so if the vote does flip I highly doubt it will be because of anything he said or did.

All he has to do is play with her emotions and she'll flip, she is dumber than him.

When are they going to do the transferring liquid on ice comp!!! that's the best comp ever

Rly important question, in BB15 the ice comp (played in pairs) had a smaller barrel which once filled would allow a pair to have two larger scoops making it quicker to transfer BBQ sauce into the larger pot potentially quicker. Would the more efficient choice be to go straight for the main barrel or try to unlock the larger scoops?

I think about this a lot.

James is ridiculously passive and dumb. He hasn't really talked to Nicole all week and has discouraged Natalie from going up to the HOH room, but he just told Natalie that he's sure that the plan is to evict Paul and Corey's gonna use the bribe to get Victor to lose the next HOH Comp.

That being said, Paul is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ****ing annoying that I don't think it's out of the question for the vote to flip. I don't think it's likely right now, but there's an outside shot.

ehh this is probably a coin flip because neither one of them is a mental giants.

No one is dumber then James. They guy sucks

okay Corey, Paul, and Victor making fun of Nicole's small ass school is actually really ****ing funny

:laugh2:

Nicole's reaction is pretty hilarious too.

What a waste of an HOH getting out the only person who's not in a duo :laugh:

I wish James would have gone this week

Hopefully next week. They won't do another wall endurance so he has no shot

Okay that's hilarious.

Yeah that's GREAT. :joker:

A drone flew over the house with a giant blow up doll with brown hair. IDK, I'll flash back and check things out later at some point but I can't be bothered right now

Ofc it would be smarter for Nicole to not use the veto and get Corey to evict Paul but Nicole isn't smart. If she really thinks that after James is evicted that Paul/Vic are going to honor their final 4 deal then wow! Just wow!

^ They might honor it all the way down to F4 tbh (I'm almost positive they'd honor it if they won HOH next week at least). Victor in particular is probably the most loyal person this season until he finds out someone is plotting against him / playing all sides.

On top of that, James/Natalie/Meech are kind of a trio and Meech (who is clearly against Nicole and vice versa) would easily slip by a couple more weeks if Nicole doesn't make this move now. Meech would target Nicole every time if she ever won HOH so that's not good at F6.

Getting Meech out is REALLY good for her game. There will be three trios in the house and Paul/Victor and James/Natalie are most likely going after each other next week.

Been watching some Zaulie videos on youtube and i'm surprised to say this, but Paulie and Zakiyah are my favourite showmance to ever happen on BBUSA. I really didn't like Zakiyah at times for how mean she was to people, but I found their relationship dynamic to be really psychologically interesting. Personally, the way Paulie was with Zakiyah is part of the reason why I liked him so much, as odd as that may sound :joker:

Odd is one way to put it.

Anyway, Corey was talking to Victor about how he wants to go to the wrap party and meet people and mingle but he is NOT spending his whole time with Nicole and coming out of this house in a relationship. And then Nicole had some big sobbing panicked meltdown about how HOH is so stressful and blah blah and Corey gave, like, minimal support :love:

Nicorey will *ALMOST* be worth it if he Dianes her. Almost.

Holy crap, I decided to rewind through the feeds from today and it's just soooo bad, like completely dead at every hour. There's literally at least one cam, if not both, on people sleeping and/or eating all day.

But I got to Nicole & Corey talking in the HOH room from like 2 hours ago and lol this is pretty good. :joker:

It's kinda weird seeing Nicole have a breakdown since I can't really remember a time on both seasons where she's cried like this. :( As worried as she gets, I feel like she always keeps it together. Maybe I'm just forgetting. The stressed/worried part is the norm though. :joker:

But it's hilarious how she went from sobbing to laughing so quickly and then Corey just laughs too after being silent for a while. :joker:

Nicole is officially the female houseguest who has voted to evict the most female houseguests :laugh2:

To be fair, the Tiffany/Da'Vonne/Zakiyah/Bridgette evictions only had women nominees, and the Bronte eviction really just came down to her and Tiffany even though Paul was the third nominee. And if you go back to BB16, Joey and Amber were also nominated against women last year, and BB16 had the worst case of voting with the house being understood culture, with only 6 votes against the majority in the whole season.

Don't get me wrong, I ****ing hate Nicole and can't believe I just half-assedly defended her, but that statistic isn't really indicative of Nicole hating women as much as it is indicative of the fact that Big Brother is a show with deep gender issues that aren't really even challenged anymore because Robyn Kass ****ing sucks at her job and continually casts boring dudebros who want to bro down and subservient girls.

It'll be interesting to see how this digital season plays out since the people who cast Survivor are apparently casting it. Survivor's a fundamentally similar show yet there have never been any gender issues. 14 female winners in 32 seasons is pretty damn close to breaking even.

:joker: :joker: :joker:

Do James/Natalie/Meech still not know that Meech is going?

Corey bribed Victor to evict Michelle.

It's really sad to watch Natalie now tbh, James completely destroyed her game by exposing her thoughts about possibly wanting Victor to stay, constantly trying to reassure her that Nicole's not a snake bc he's friends with her from pre-show, and dismissing Natalie's desire to campaign and talk to Nicole because he thinks she will somehow accidentally say something to piss Nicole off. He's a ****ing dumbass and she'll be so much better off without him (I say will because it's pretty clear that she's just so exhausted by how dumb he is and she can't wait to get out of the house and get some space to herself.) I'm sure Michelle's kicking herself too for not nominating Nicole, but she knows that James would never have evicted her anyway. He really did a tremendous job at tanking all three of their games.

James has ruined 2 seasons. Can he please **** off and never return please

Victor is the only candidate for winner in my eyes remaining, especially if Meech goes

You don't like how Paul is playing, Raph?

This is the second season ever of Big Brother that I stopped watching [twice, because I decided to watch again during Zakiyah/Paulie's eviction week]. This is a Bottom 2 big brother series, with BB14
