July 3, 20178 yr I still don't understand why Megan quit. That episode explained nothing. There's obviously more there. Alex is amazing tho.The "more" was in an interview she did on social media stating that she was experiencing PTSD from a time she was sexually assaulted in the military, and the meltdown with Josh coupled with the Jess/Alex drama and the entire house coming at her set it off. This explains why she pulled an Audrey and hid inside the DR for hours crying.
July 3, 20178 yr Also like I get that Jessica didn't say Panda, but she did say Pao Pao. I wouldn't say that's as racist as panda, but it's a bit of a grey area to compare her to a previous houseguest of Asian descent. The way she didn't own up to me sounds like it's a sort of Mean Girls little dig, otherwise surely she can just say "well I said Pao Pao not Panda" :lol: People are saying it's fine because Alex is similar to Paola but I don't think she really is. I wouldn't say it's racist but it does seem bitchy. I found it very iffy too and I feel really bad for Megan because I think what she was trying to do was coming from a good place. And I really dislike how it's been handled in terms of the game, so Cody's target is out and now he gets to nominate someone else and potentially get out his next target?!? Either 'reset' the week* and play another HOH (and probably go for that option because the next one wouldn't be very exciting) or just wait out the week idk. (*I've just checked BB 11 when Chima was ejected and a reset seems like the precedent as "After Chima was expelled from the House, the game was reset and Michele was stripped of her Head of Household duties because Chima was one of her nominees")
July 3, 20178 yr I think a lot of social media fans seem to be like "oh well it doesn't matter!11!" with Jessica calling her Pao Pao because she's hot and a strong female, I'm sure if say Kevin had said it there'd be more fuss made over it :lol: It's not so much what's said it's the behaviour around it for me, the Mean Girls vibes because it's clearly not a case of them saying to Alex she's like Paola, laughing about it together and making it a nickname. Cody was vile as well "I got her out" well you didn't hun she had PTSD, how can it be that all you care about is game in an instance where someone has had PTSD... Even if they didn't know (they probs didn't), they must be aware of something wrong given she was crying in the diary room for hours. He seems so cold, both in the way he conducts himself and the way he interacts with and reacts to other people. I did think that resetting the week would be the precedent, I remember with Chima that happened and I think that was the last time anything like this happened. I think in this case they should maybe have just waited out the week as I think had she stayed Megan would have been the target anyway so it's unfair to give Cody the power to have two of his targets out of the way this early, he sure as hell doesn't need the ego boost :lol:
July 6, 20178 yr Update from the live feeds: today is the last day of campaigning. It's been three days. On the Xmas injury: she's staying for however long they keep her and the doctor will choose which comps she'll play.
July 6, 20178 yr Author Oh. Hey. I don't hate Jason. Cody just has no idea what he's doing, it's so funny to watch.
July 6, 20178 yr Also after that last episode I am fully announcing my undying loyalty to Queen Alex. She is bringing the PAIN.
July 6, 20178 yr A third of the house!!!! Insane. First HOH can be a terrible position anyway (Nicole last season worked it but that was because she played it lowkey and went obvious) but he's not just got blood on his hands, he's fell into a vat of the stuff :lol: It would be ok if he hadn't targetted comp threats as well, but he's played so hard so fast and now has pretty much all the strongest players gunning for him. Alex is f***ing FIERCE, I am living *.*

July 6, 20178 yr It's too bad we don't have the token "long hair don't care dude" bc Joseph would be all over that shit (although I'll end up hating him like I did Jace so)
July 6, 20178 yr Has BB ever been this juicy just four episodes in :') Next Two Temptations: This Week: Ring of Replacement - Replace one of the 3 random Veto Players at anytime. Next Week: Halting Hex - In the next 4 weeks, make an eviction night a non-eviction night. THAT LAST ONE IS MASSIVE That second one sounds like one for queen Alex I hope Christmas is staying, so she can go after Cody. But, she's not Alex or Paul so not one of my major essentials rn.
July 6, 20178 yr It's too bad we don't have the token "long hair don't care dude" bc Joseph would be all over that shit (although I'll end up hating him like I did Jace so) Gutted tbh (Jace was infuriatingly annoying)
July 6, 20178 yr Can someone add a "Who do you want evicted" poll? I think it would be interesting to see the results. Also I'm planning to do a ranking just before the live eviction so keep your eyes peeled.
July 6, 20178 yr And here is my first EVER first week pre-eviction ranking! (I promised Travis that I would do this) SPOILERS IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE LIVE FEEDS 1.) Alex: OH. MY. GOD. I never thought I would love a houseguest so much so quickly and in comes this adorable creature who is equal parts savage and equal parts cute :heart: :heart: So many savage comments towards Cody and I think she made him fall head over heels with her WHILE HE WAS WITH JESS. Honestly a queen. Which means she'll probably get evicted way sooner than I'd like. There's always one fave of mine that ends up not going as far as I would like in reality comps. It was Bridgette last year, Paige in ANTM, and I'm willing to be that it's her this time. 2.) Dominique: Already doing way better than Zakiyah (taking into account the live feeds), and it's only Day 1. She has the potential to be a strong comp player but we haven't seen her in many comps. Her social game is probably the strongest out of all the houseguests. From her talks with Mark on how to handle the women in the house to her impromptu talk shows on BBAD (both of which I missed :cry:), she's getting along with everyone but at the same time planting seeds. It's nice to see her play the game at her own pace in a season where half of the house is playing aggressively. 3.) Mark: Okay, now while I normally don't like the guy who ends up falling in love too easily and gets caught up in his own emotions, I end up having to forgive Mark bc he's such a giant teddy bear that I have to excuse him for falling head over heels too easily. :heart: :heart: :heart: My headcanon is that he's also fallen for Dominique while he was with Elena bc they talk so much it becomes such a thing, and he trust her so much, while with Elena, he's blinded by the fact that she's not reciprocating. Baby boy you need to find someone who you believe will treat you right, and if that's Dom or Elena or Xmas then you do you. 4.) Elena: Not as legendary as she was in the first episode but STILL LEGENDARY. Her only flaw is her insecurity when it comes to Mark. Will she see Dom as a threat? Maybe, just not right now. But overall I love her personality and she has amazing moments, i.e. her eating ice cream and saying "I don't need your judgment, I don't want your judgment" :lol: :lol: :lol: 5.) Christmas: Unfortunately knocked down a peg thanks to a broken foot but she has resilience and a fight that's stronger than most of the people here. If she could do a physical comp in her condition I would be all for it. There are also a lot of people on her side, so I'm eagerly awaiting the drama if she's saved. 6.) Kevin: This man is HILARIOUS. That is all I have to say in that matter. 7.) Ramses: I think he and Matt are in a really good position in that they have a really strong tie (Ram has Alex and Matt has Raven), but the one thing that scares me the most is the curse that he has that everyone (mostly Paul) wants to take advantage of. I see him as an unknown quantity; you don't know what he's going to do in terms of comps, and he's laying low so you don't know what's going on with his social game. But he's higher than Raven and Matt because of potential. 8.) Matt: Hottest guy here... but unfortunately sucks at competitions. That POV comp he did was kinda tragic. It's sad that he ended up being a bit of a disappointment after initially thinking he will swoop in with a bomb ass social game and athleticism. 9.) Raven: It's so sad bc I think she's a sweet girl but every time I see her cooking I cringe a little bit. She's laying low which is good. Maybe she'll make it to jury? 10/11.) Cody: #controversial Him as a person? He's a complete pain in the ass. Transphobic comments and whatnot coming out of his mouth, tbh you could swap him with Ryan Lochte and I wouldn't tell the difference. Him as a player? He's proven to be pretty deadly when it comes to more physical competitions but he struggles in mental ones, which doesn't make him the all-around comp beast Alex is. He also had an amazing setup but played too hard too fast and he ended up crashing and burning. It will be pretty interesting to see how he adapts after the first eviction. The only reason he's this high is because he's HELLA ENTERTAINING. • deadass stare directed to Paul • "Watch out, loser" • that clip of him and Megan nodding in silence • "Megan, I just don't like you that much." • him throwing the POV comp for Alex • "Well, Alex- er, I didn't mean to say that" • his deadass stare when Paul pulled off his immunity • him being the only person who sees through Paul while everyone kisses his ass I wanna love you But something’s pulling me away from you Jesus is my virtue And Cody is the demon I cling to 10/11.) Paul: I find him annoyingly overrated, but the show edits him to be such a legend I just can't help loving it. On the live feeds, it's pretty apparent that he acts like he's the shit, which is weird considering he initially hated that when the vets came on his season. He's a good campaigner and has already gotten a bunch of people on his side. At the same time I can't help thinking that he's going to win just because everyone kept screaming that he was robbed last season. Kinda poetic that they're in the same position despite them not liking each other. 12.) Megan: Also deserved better. This would have been avoided had Jess told the truth about her calling Alex Pao-Pao. Then again it would still end up being her vs. Jill come eviction night and this week would have gone by so much cleaner. 13.) Josh: I think I've gotten over the massive hate I had for him pre-season but I still see him as majorly annoying. He's proven himself to be a ticking time bomb, so it will be interesting to see how he votes during this eviction ceremony. 14.) Jason: He still strikes me as annoying but I like how he's becoming such a strong ally for Alex. Also his talks with Kevin are kinda delightful. 15.) Cameron: Honestly deserved so much better. The game would've been pretty interesting had he stayed over Jill but I'm pretty sure we would have seen the same outcome. 16.) Jillian: Still kinda adorable in the live feeds, but she sucks at the game in the sense that she doesn't do shit when she's on the block (though she did some massive campaigning with Alex last night), and she complains about people not liking her almost all the time. GURL. 17.) Jessica: I love her but she seems a bit checked out. I want her to stay at least halfway but I know it's not gonna happen.Welp that didn't last long. SHE'S SO ANNOYING. I hate how she thinks she runs the house because she hooked up with the first HOH of the season, and tbh she's making the season drag so far along, more than it should be. She's also always up in Cody's ass, and I will assure that he would be a much more interesting HG if she wasn't around. I'm living for this possible love triangle against Alex though.
