Time Enough to Let the Big Brother Rugs Dry

Time Enough to Let the Big Brother Rugs Dry by Roxanne McDonald

Amber is finally put out of our misery…and just in time to dry up all the soppy, tear-sogged stuff to get it all nice for the guest PoV host, Janelle!

Okay, maybe Janelle won’t be physically in the house? Maybe she will just join Julie [aka the Chenbot] from the control room gazebo thingy.

But that will be cool. I have been likening Daniele to Janelle, all along, so maybe there will be an opportunity there to test my supposition.

Okay, on to the festivities over the next best elimination yet this season:

I’ll try to be as kind as the remaining houseguests were in their good-bye messages, but don’t hold me to that.

Don’t mean any ill toward the born again waterworks waif, but omg, could ya ease up on the sobbing as if you are one day clean and sober and going through withdrawals without proper medical/psychological support? It doesn’t and didn’t even make for good TV.

Well, except for those who turned your moments into a drinking game, taking a swig every time you bawled. Man, they sure must have been shnockered!

And let go of the false notions, the pseudo faith, and the hackneyed cliches that are as annoying as the “I’m not going to cry” contradicting wails.

Amber tells us in the DR that Eric is only in this for himself. Uh…, yuh. I’m thinking that is most likely the case for every single one of you? I mean, last I checked back, no Big Brother player was there to help a rival win….

Sigh.

And, guess what? Unlike Eric, who was dignified enough to stifle the mocking laughter at your inane suggestion that only “good” people should win, we at home were whoopin it up. There are so many levels of wrong to that, so many fallacious elements to that bizarre logic, I am going to pass on explaining.

And Amber can go right on insisting on her own personal eviction theory—that she was just so damned threatening a player. Then again, she might click on the TV or check out the Big Brother chatter online and consider that the most powerful players are still there, and that the biggest threats have traditionally not been ousted all that early.

[Yes, several will insist otherwise, but I do see Jess, Daniel, Dick, Jessica, and Eric as the strongest, the wiliest, the more strategic—and not just because they are still in the House.]

But superlatives and likely battonage aside, a Big Brother-to-Amber dictionary would not hurt, even though she is now long gone. [Hey, I think I might just create a Big Brother dictionary in general: hmmm. Think I could get much more than “backdooring” and “under the bus” entered to make for a whole little book?]

Anyway, Amber doesn’t have to feel so completely clueless, for others are right behind her, and those who aren’t on their way out the door are having their moments of brain shorts, too.

Zach, right before the voting, told us he would like to think that he has developed relationships with everyone in the house—unlike, he said, Amber. But wait a second, here. What was that Zach was saying only a few nights back, how he was heh-heh boasting and proud to be the run-around or floating one or whatever he said…, the one who floated and made no committed alliances…?

Dick gets all definitive and says the only way he would vote for Zach to go is if Zach intentionally set him up: the cams flashback to Zach trying to do just that. [This, of course, shouldn’t count as a total coma on Dick’s part, as he is unaware of the Zach thing and isn’t just winging it in spite of knowing, that is.]

Daniele has a coo-coo minute, suddenly goes into a logic coma when she says Amber would never nominate her [Daniele] if she [Amber] got HoH. Uhhh, when was such a promise [spoken or implied], Daniele, broken by Amber? Just a few weeks ago? Remember that boy you cry for now? And why in the name of all that is Jameka and Amber holy would you think that if you have had no problem destroying SWORN vows to not put someone up, Amber wouldn’t screw you too, and write it off as an ooops I am such a sorry crybaby who made yet another foolish mistake?

Oh. Lord. I am exhausted. And so relieved I can stop with all the empathizing I so didn’t do that much of to begin with.

And while I love her and maybe even see her as one of the final four, I PRAY Jameka does NOT take over the crying that Amber left off….
