BB: “I Reckon, Over Yonder – Yes, I Did”

The #JODY game rears its head again – this time between Fessy and Brett, instead of Tyler and the evicted Swaggy.

Sam and I are both tired of a conventional game, on the part of everyone, who is not Tyler or JC. I too, like Sam, am ready to stomp metaphorical, strategic “mudholes” and turn this game upside down, just to keep it interesting.

Faysal is a lumbering giant, both physically and mentally. Kaycee went back up on the block, just like during Hay’s HOH, and Scottie is 99.99% going home.

As I mentioned earlier, I ship Hay and Brett. Hay is a disappointing player, but as a person, she deserves a better significant other, than Fessy. Don’t be too vulgar but drop a bomb on Fessy’s intentions of ever winning Hay’s heart, Brett!

Back to Hay’s game: extremely disappointing. Fans of the game or independent fans, are just aghast at how fast Hay could go from hero to zero. This week has been a wake-up call not just for the weakness of Scottie’s game, but Hay’s as well.

One can only look back and see that during the intermediary period, after Swaggy left and when Bay was unofficially running Foutte, Hay had some clever ideas or instincts, but she would rarely voice them, outside the DR, much less, act on any of them.

Hay’s passive gameplay has followed her into Fessy’s disastrous (for Foutte) HOH week and is a major reason for the utter collapse of her own HOH week: RS going home.

The Mind Flayer (Stranger Things fans, rejoice), that is JC, continues to live on. His Hive Mind, has jumped hosts. Still, JC has a good point: even dedicated, hardcore Tyler fans are nervous about this whole #Tangela experience. I like them as good friends, but personally, I don’t see the showmance material.

On a game level, almost any kind of showmance is distracting. In the first Season of Survivor, on Borneo, Richard Hatch was very taken by the quirky and handsome Sean, but that was only in his heart. His brain voted Sean out without a second thought and Hatch won the million dollars.

I am not surprised that Bay and Swaggy didn’t survive game-wise, even though they seem to love each other, as people. And of course, I have never put much stock in Hay or Fessy, as players, or ever been excited, on a game level, for their showmance. Neither Hay, nor Fessy, are in my Final Five.

Tyler is a strong player; if his game immune system has been compromised by Tangela (Pokémon?) he isn’t showing any symptoms – yet. He reassured JC, not to take this Tangela nonsense seriously, and if Tyler really is bi, this may be a relief, for JC, on a personal level too. JC doesn’t like the females on his men. He broke up Fessy and Kaitlyn, and JC has never been a huge fan of Fessy x Hay.

Angela liking Brett, that way, seems highly unlikely. I don’t see it at all. So, I hope JC doesn’t try to sell that ocean-side property, in Kansas, too hard.

Lines are being drawn. With Foutte, all but in a free fall, it’s time to look toward the endgame. The great mental war between JC and Tyler, is just beginning, like Professor X trying to outsmart Magneto.

Brett is a funny character, a paragon of the trickster archetype, but compared to the depths of Tyler’s game-mind, Brett is just a very pretty face (dump him Sam). JC, defeat Tyler. Come up with a better line and entangle Tangela in your gladiator’s net.

Win it all SAM

BB: “Rockslide!”

Sam in the House

Fessy plays the game as well as a sack of rocks. He’s ‘OK’ with Tyler, but wants to get rid of Scottie, one of the last few people in Foutte’s alliance, besides Hay.

Fessy is after Brett and Scottie, the competitors for Hay’s heart. He’s not playing for the $500K. He is playing strictly with his heart. Fessy is ready to let Tyler get away, for another week. At this rate, Tyler is never going to be voted out anytime soon. He’s never been in any real danger.

Scottie’s going home Thursday. I am calling it now. Kaitlyn got rid of Swaggy. Hay let RS go home during her HOH. Fessy is going to take out Scottie, for personal reasons (Scottie’s crush on Hay).

Scottie is still the best thing to ever happen to Foutte. He needs to win the veto and save himself from Foutte’s stupidity. Kaitlyn’s spirit animals are still haunting the house and taking revenge on Foutte, by allowing them to fight each other and destroy one another.

Fessy is going home, the week after the next. Foutte is all going to join each other, one after the other, in the jury house.

Fessy also repeated the great Foutte tradition of making bad strategic decisions from the HOH bathroom, like Hay’s wine-fueled bath tub pitch to Tyler, to use the veto on Rockstar.

Stop with the backdooring; just put people up straightaway.

Foutte wins competitions – but not the ones that matter; Tyler has won multiple POVs, including OTEV.

Sam and Kaycee? I ‘ship’ them, more than any pairing with Sam. They were hugging each other so much, after RS left. Sam returned to her first love.

Brett almost killed Sam, with some seeds she was allergic to, in a dinner he made for her. If that’s not a sign, from the universe, that they shouldn’t be together, I don’t know what is.

Sam was the only vote to save Bay, but this week, suddenly, like the crocodile tears of Hay and Fessy, last week, Sam supposedly ‘just wanted to vote with the house.’ Future HGs should retire this tired excuse forever. As I’ve said before, YOU make your own majority, YOU accumulate your own numbers.

It’s like Rule #3 of the 48 Laws of Power: never tell anyone that you like them. Conceal your true intentions. Bad move Sam. Brett is not the one for her! Sam needs a nurturer and Brett will not be able to deal with Sam’s level of uniqueness.

Sam is the kind of person, who can survive on her own, but she needs just one person, who gets her – one person who is ‘her person.’ Bay is gone, so is RS; so now, Sam’s ‘person’ is Brett, of all people.

The level of commitment, that Sam requires, is too much for Brett to handle. He won’t have the mental bandwidth to cater to Sam. Then she will be hurt and take the whole issue very hard, since Sam already has self-esteem issues. Angela may be traditionally hot, but Sam is the beautiful girl-next-door. I don’t know why she can’t see that in herself and be more confident.

Foutte is committed to the ‘fairness’ of Rockstar, or people like Fessy, being ‘a man of his word.’ No one in Foutte is intellectually dumb. But street smarts would teach Foutte that the only thing that really matters is power – who has the numbers, who has the majority.

Words mean nothing without actions. Pinky promises are made to be broken, at one’s first convenience. Just ask Tyler.  “The 48 Laws of Power,” “The Prince,” and “The Art of War” should be required reading for all HGs, before they enter the BB house.

Rockstar is not legendary, in any sense of the word. The only HG that I am excited to see in Celebrity Big Brother, Survivor and such, is Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn is a Legend.
