I Know Why Jesse Doesn't Seem So Annoying

Natalie. Even as Jesse continues to talk down to Jordan and Lydia, it's Natalie's non-stop babbling that drives me nuts. Come back Michelle, all is forgiven!!!

Snoozefest

It's a pretty boring night. A bunch of people are outside bitching about the other people that are inside bitching about them. Natalie lets slip that she's applied before, which Kevin jumps on.

Upstairs, Lydia is complaining to Jordan that Chima is using some story about being raped as an excuse to stay. She's also lying about her knowledge of Russell using the veto.

Ronnie's Potentially Fatal Error!

Ok, all of these idiots need to shut their mouths. Every "secret" becomes common knowledge within a couple of hours. Once the decision was made to backdoor Braden, so Natalie decides to individually let almost everybody in on the secret. She wants Jeff out because he just doesn't talk to her and Jesse. Duh, you're upstairs plotting most of the day! (Jesse claims they do that so they don't have to talk game 24/7, which is exactly what they do in the HOH.) But Jeff is ineligible for banishment, so they've decided to go after Braden, whose biggest sin that I can see is that he's friendly with Jeff.

Earlier today, Ronnie was paranoid that he may be backdoored, and had a nice little talk with Lydia about this. Once the Braden plan came into being, he immediately told Jordan. Guess who she ran to? He's been claiming for the past hour that it wasn't him, but lying just doesn't work well for him.

The best part of Jesse's lecture is when Ronnie says that he's a nationally ranked persuasive speaker.

Meanwhile, Lydia is trying to talk Russell into putting up Ronnie.

Edit: Ooof, Ronnie just had Jordan pinkie-swear that she won't tell anybody it was him who informed her of the Braden plan.

Could Lydia Be Safe After All?

I must say that I love the Real Player "wayback machine". After reading a couple of twitter reports regarding a late-night conversation between Lydia, Jesse, and Natalie, I went back to take a look for myself.

The conversation occurred around 2:30 or so Big Brother time, and Lydia's obvious goal was to get them to convince Russell to save her with the veto. It started with King Jesse's usual method of "explaining" the situation to her like she's five years old, and then it got heated when Lydia and Natalie discussed their animosity towards each other. For possibly the first time in BB history, though, an argument between rivals ended up with an understanding.

Lydia still has some hurdles, though. After she left, the King and his Princess discussed the ramifications of saving her. They would love to put up Jeff, but they can't because he's on their team, so the next idea is to backdoor Braden. Somehow he's a "sheisty mastermind who doesn't care about anyone and just wants to stir up drama". I don't know how this is the case, as I haven't seen him say more than five sentences the past two days.

Russell was then brought up, and the trio somehow believe that giving Braden the boot would give them control of the entire house. Oh boy, the alliance of eight from Jesse's year will now be twelve. (You just can't make up their idiotic delusions.) Russell is still not sure about saving Lydia, as he thinks she's smarter than she lets on. (Maybe, I'm not real sure about that yet.)

Jeff Versus Russell!!!

It's on! Although they're just screaming the same crap over and over again. I never need to hear the word "technotronics" again! (Edit: In case you're wondering, "technotronic" was the word Jeff misspelled in the veto comp. Russell spelled his word correctly, but it was a much easier one.)

Russell admitted a few minutes later that he indeed set up the entire scene to get Jeff to blow up.

And now Jeff is arguing with Natalie. Oh boy. She's really out of her mind.

Since the fight, Natalie's mouth hasn't stopped flapping. She immediately ran up to inform Jesse, who is offended that he would say such things to an innocent "18 year-old girl". Ugh. She's now rehashing the fight to every individual person. I had to shut it off.

Jeff is pissed

Jeff and Lydia are complaining about- well, everyone. Russell's cockiness. Jesse and Michellev2's attachment at the hip. Tits' obsession with getting attention...everything we've been enduring on the feeds. Lydia's slipping in several appeals to stay-obviously. Gotta say, I'm crushing. On Jeff, not Lydia.

Natalie's Grooming Habits

She's been in Jesse's shower for quite some time, and a few minutes ago was clearly doing a bit of grooming, if you know what I mean. I didn't grab a cap of it, but she had one leg sticking almost straight up as she performed her duties. lol

Poor Laura

Everybody is so mean to her because she's just so damned amazing. People are intimidated by her body, and brains. Oh yeah, women have an advanced vocabulary so all the men are scared of her. She tried to be Lydia's BFF but she moved on to other people, and her own team doesn't talk to her.

Get over yourself. Maybe complaining that silly girls playing dress up were just trying to get TV time ruined any chance of friendship. It's not your silly over-inflated breasts.

BTW, Jeff hates Russell (who showed his junk a little earlier). This could be interesting.

King Jesse (Ugh)

As he did the last time we saw him as HOH, Jesse is holding court in the HOH bedroom as if he owns the house. Laura is now up there kissing his ass (she believes she'd be the replacement nominee if the veto is used) , and, as always, Natalie is attached to his hip. He's as insufferable now as ever.

POV Results!

Feeds are back, and Russell won POV. Will he use it on Lydia? He loves to go back and forth with her, but I bet Jesse will make sure he doesn't use it.

Edit: Ooooh, it sounds like Jeff threw it! The contest had something to do with gathering letters, and the dictionary that was being passed around earlier today was an element in the competition.
