Week 10 Prelude to Bedlam Highlights

 

Eeeew. How gross is it that Spencer’s nails are long and/or pointy enough to pop balloons? Clawson indeed. Confetti rained down on the fat-ass chicken as he clawed open balloons to win $10,000 today in a pre-nomination event. But on to more important matters.

 

VaGinaMarie is HOH and appears to be committed to the WhateverStupidNameTheyCameUpWith Alliance’s plan to nominate Amanda and McCrae. She’s still friendly with Elissa, too, although Squacky isn’t part of the aforementioned alliance. All the boys who aren’t Amanda and McCrae are.

 

Amanda tried to stick to VGM like glue, calling up the waterworks and saying Elissa is bullying her. VGM soothed Squacky’s “victim,” telling her that the nominations would all be of the fowl persuasion. Once Amanda was gone, VGM turned to the camera to mock her. Amanda bought it, though. Her vestigial appendage seemed to know they could be in trouble. He was depressed, but that could have been about the girl back home, since he didn’t even want to talk to VGM.

 

In the never-ending battle of who’s meaner and more entitled, Amanda spent her non-VGM-stalking time bitching about and at Elissa. Squacky continued to tell everyone how nasty Amanda is, because Squacky’s a self-righteous bitch. And also because Amanda’s nasty.

 

Aryan’s eviction apparently came in first in the ratings for the time slot. Hee. I’ll have to remember to check Integrated PR’s twitter feed to see what brilliant strategy they’ve developed to turn Ms. Nation into (white) America’s sweetheart.

 

VGM slipped part-way down the stairs and sprained or broke her piggy (not Spencer). It didn’t stop her from coming through with the nominations of Amanda and McCrae. “Youse tree fuckin’ kids gotta be split the fuck up.” Wheeee! Let the mayhem begin!

 

It’s 5:30 p.m. HT, page 10, post 149. Bust out the snarkahol (I always want it when I see snarkaholic’s name), because the fun is just getting started. Which will come first? The rage or the flood of tears? Whichever, the other won't be far behind.

Week 10 Minor Hissy Fit Highlights

 

Well, that was anticlimactic. Amanda was stunned by the nominations, which is really funny. And she did react with both anger and tears (“It doesn’t make any sense when Elissa is such a bitch!”), but then she just wallowed in her own self-pity and McCrae’s filth. McCrae had nary a word to say to Amanda or anyone else after the ceremony. The boyz talked as if they’d vote out McCrae if he was still on the block after the veto.

 

Everyone except Judd was picked to play for the veto. Elissa was the only one who seemed to know that Andy is playing all sides of the house, but Amanda picked Spencer to play for the veto, so maybe she suspects. She told Andy it was because she thought he would have a harder time choosing between her and McCrae.

 

With an equally, i.e. not very, convincing lie, Andy told Amanda after the competition that he was going really slowly while he played so as not to get dizzy. Needless to say, Andy didn’t win. McCrae came out of his coma and won the veto! In the biggest surprise of the day, Amanda didn’t yell at him afterward for not throwing it to her.

 

McCrae hates Judd and when Judd asked him for a cigarette, McCrae said, “Fuck no.” He’s counting them now and hiding them so Judd can’t get his mitts on them. Amanda said McCrae should bribe Judd with ciggies and booze for his vote. This isn’t from today, but McCrae also doesn’t give a fuck about what feed-watchers think. Like, fuck you, recrappers!

 

Spencer volunteered to be the pond. Judd thinks they should try to convince McCrae to use the veto on Amanda. VGM told the guys that she isn’t putting Elissa up.

 

Amanda tried again to talk some of what passes for sense in Amanda’s world into VGM. She bashed Elissa and said she should be the replacement nominee. VGM was suitably attentive and said she would take it under advisement. Amanda sent McCrae to talk to VGM, too. He did it, even though it required him to say more than “I don’t know.” It is one of his bigger game moves thus far. The veto win must have energized him. He also bashed Elissa to VGM, but he didn’t buy VGM’s feigned interest in his thoughts. Amanda also instructed the other boys to sell the idea of a Squacky nomination to VGM. They didn’t.

 

That’s about it at 8:00 p.m. HT, page 21, post 306.

Week 10 Highlights

 

There hasn’t been much to say. McCrae talked for a hot minute about using the veto on Amanda, but decided it was stupid. He used it on himself and VaGinaMarie replaced him on the block with Spencer.

 

Amanda alternated between whining and campaigning. Once Elissa was no longer a replacement nominee option, Amanda started trashing VGM. She told everyone how stupid and pathetic VGM is. It didn’t come as news. Amanda tried to tell people that it makes no sense to get rid of her when she’ll continue to be a target. She swore her undying loyalty to everyone in the house. Everyone pretended to take her arguments into consideration, but then told each other she’s going home.

 

McCrae began his effort to find a new keeper. He had a chat with Elissa and mentioned a final two deal as a possibility. He told Amanda to go talk to Elissa about her vote. Amanda and McCrae both assume Andy’s vote will go their way and they only need one more. McCrae also buddied up to the guys, but it remains to be seen what relationships will hold.

 

Amanda talked to Elissa and apologized for the harassment and personal attacks. According to Andy, who must have been skulking around listening because that’s what he does, Squacky agreed to keep Amanda and put up her wedding rings as proof of her commitment. I assume Squacky had just come from the DR when she spoke with Amanda. Andy said he would save Amanda, but he wanted to see the rings first.

 

The rest of the house said they won’t tell Elissa they know anything about what she’s doing, but she’s proven she can’t be trusted, so she’s their next target. Everybody was waiting for Amanda to blow (except McCrae), but she’s started to cheer up now that she’s been given hope.

 

At about 7:45 a.m. HT on Tuesday, page 38, post 570, most of the hammies are still in bed. No worries about the house becoming dull if Amanda leaves. It’s already happened.

Week 10 Highlights

 

VaGinaMarie knows Elissa is trying to keep Amanda. Andy told her, of course. She isn’t saying anything about it to Amanda, so Amanda thinks she doesn’t know yet.

 

Andy is promising his vote to both sides of the house. Elissa put up her wedding rings to show her commitment to Amanda and Amanda demanded that Andy put up… a t-shirt. He did so, but told the Excrements that it’s just a shirt, so it doesn’t matter. He told the Excrements he’s going to deny voting Amanda out and blame it on Elissa or McCrae. He’ll accuse McCrae of trying to start an all guys alliance. Andy also told Spencer that it would be better for Andy’s game to vote Spencer out, but he claimed he isn’t going to do it.

 

Amanda, McCrae, and Andy have been debating who the first target should be on the other side. It will be Judd or VGM. Amanda thinks VGM hates her, so that’s who she wants out. Andy wants Judd out.

 

Amanda continued to pledge her undying allegiance to Elissa. She said she’d take Elissa to final two over McCrae. McCrae told Elissa he’d take her to final two over Amanda. Amanda apologized again to Elissa for her behavior. Squacky said she forgave Amanda, but then she climbed up on her high horse and sermonized about Amanda’s depravity. She said it wasn’t Amanda in particular she was criticizing, just people who do pretty much anything that Amanda does. Amanda must have been fresh from her DR drugging, because Elissa is still alive and quacking.

 

Elissa thinks wealthy people are the bestest people on earth. Riches come back to them many-fold because they’re so good and benevolent. Poor people are poor because they’re horrible and don’t have the drive to succeed. They’re soooo annoying. Once someone reaches a certain level of wealth, they’re too good to allow the unwashed masses to be close to them, lest they try to take advantage. Poor people should just be like rich people and get some money. Problem solved.

 

At 8:15 a.m. HT, page 44, post 648, the awful hammies sleep their awful sleep.
