[Macie Lightfoot]

okay some abbreviated (or not so abbreviated) thoughts on LJ's write ups so far!

Austin: I agree on the low placement but I don't totally hate him anymore? He's just sooooooooooo pathetic that like 10% of the time it wraps around to being funny? Like during Liz's HOH reign when Vanessa had her meltdown in the hammock and was like "I just miss Mel ;_;" and Steve was like "hey Van idk if you knew this but I miss my mom " and Austin immediately chimes in "I miss Liz when she's in the DR " without a hint of irony and his final vote comment about The Heart Wants What It Wants did make me chuckle, I'm ashamed to admit. But yeah, the rest of Austin sucks. It's weird though because he actually did well socially in the house despite having so many obvious personality turn offs? His Vanessa groveling is probably one of the best skills one could have on a season like this so that def helps his gameplay in my books.

Jace: Thank God. The less said the better. Bro culture is legitimately one of the worst things ever created. The only good thing he did was pull Steve aside and "campaign" because it was hilarious even though Jace was a huge douche to him. Also, I thought he completely made up Geek Squad Mickey/McGee but then it turns out Austin called Steve that once behind his back? Of course he did.

Steve: I don't really think I have much to say? He's just such an afterthought that I don't really have an opinion on him. Like, he sucks as a winner but only in the context of this final three. I think I prefer him to Ian but is that really an accomplishment? Okay I've had enough of Geek Squad Mickey (although the list on Reddit about all the things he can't do and didn't know is HILARIOUS I need to link it soon)

Jeff: I know most people hate him or don't care but I have a lot of tolerance for him! Everything you said is true, but I just love how Jeff is soooooooooo insecure and full of self-loathing and paranoia and butthurt feelings. Like, his entire first week was just a giant meltdown because Austin said he had a dad bod and he really was the second most paranoid scheming person after Audrey in the early weeks so I kinda dug it. He also did a hilarious Periscope in the back of a taxi last night bitching about how half of Pre-Jurors were ignored BUT IT'S OKAY BECAUSE PRODUCTION SAID THEY MADE THE SEASON and it was just sooooo desperate I couldn't handle it

John: I think I made my feelings clear on him throughout the season. I really just don't get the appeal. Like, are we supposed to like him because he's nice (which we're just supposed to assume he is bc he's a str8 white male)? Are we supposed to like him because he's an underdog? I don't get it. He wasn't funny or ANYTHING, he just yelled in the DR in a fake wacky voice and read his scripted lines from the cue cards. And like you said, he didn't have any game, and even though I don't normally care about game, it was just sooooooooo annoying and frustrating to hear him throw yet another Competition. HE LEGITIMATELY WANTED TO THROW THE FINAL FIVE POV WHEN HE WAS NOMINATED JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHER TIMES HE THREW COMPETITIONS LITERALLY JUST BECAUSE PEOPLE ASKED HIM TOO WHAT THE **** IS YOUR PROBLEM not to mention crying actual tears over Clelli and all that. No thx.

Liz and Julia: I'm soooooo hear for the twins. Obviously the twin gimmick works in their favor, but I find them cute and fun and funny, both intentionally and unintentionally. Sigmund Freud was legitimately hilarious, and I loooooooooooove the way they speak even though everyone else hated it I knowwwwwwuuhhhhhhhh / Steeeeeeeeeeevvuhhhhhh / Jameeessssssuhhhhhhhhhh. I was just here for it. I was definitely #TeamLiz over her goodbye message to Jason because holy **** Jason doesn't age well at all and I want his ass out soon. And Julia throwing Austin's clothes around and doing her "I'm Judas" dance was a top 10 moment I don't know, it's hard to write about the twins because they weren't really about moments, just about the whole being. Julia is definitely the better twin like you said btw.
