Big Brother: Crying In Confessional Is The New Black

Previously on Big Brother: Joe wore jorts on TV. I decided yesterday that I was going to start calling him "Joe-rts", but then I saw the vest he was wearing in confessional during tonight's episode. But I'm getting ahead of myself! Wouldn't want to skip over all of the crying. Besides mine. Over his vest. And JORTS.

After the credits, we get our first black and blue (?) flashback of the season. I welcome it back with open arms. Later, when roughly half of the show is like this I'll be having fury blackouts, but for now let's enjoy it. We get the shot of Jessica making her debut in the house as the first of the rivals, still in her Jackie O costume. Then she gets a confessional in which she states that she used to be "BFF" with Carol, and I immediately hate Jessica. The reasons, they are threefold: One, her voice is terrible to listen to and she's completely bitchy in tone. Two, she used the term "BFF". Dead to me. And the third (and worst) thing is that because she said BFF, I started having RR/RW Challenge Susie flashbacks, which is inexcusable. I could write like three or four pages about all of the reasons why Susie sucks. But we have crappy vests to get to.

Then we see Dick make his douchey entrance again. And then Dustin comes in and we arrive at Joe's first Vest Confessional of the evening. Seriously, who packed his bags? We've discussed the jorts at length, so you know how I feel about that, but I'm also pretty sure the crappy train conductor hat is his too. None of his shirts apparently have buttons on them, and he's wearing a vest in this confessional that is all torn on the sides and may or may not have been a part of Bon Jovi's wardrobe at some point. It's..bad, you guys. You think one of the side effects of gonorrhea is an inability to dress oneself? Or are the two related somehow? The plot thickens! He totally got the clap from Tawny Kitaen.

Joe tells us how he was "enraged" that Dustin was there. Daniele tells Jameka that her dad is more of a friend than a parent, but she calls him a "mean friend" with air quotes and everything. Daniele cries in the bathroom area and Dick comes over with his stupid Dragon Ball Z hair and tries to make her feel better. Guess if it worked! (Answer: no.)

After squaring up with Dick about her "I'm 21" lie, he tries to make nice with her and she denies him a hug. Burn! Then he cries in confessional because his daughter has alienated him. This will be the only time this evening that you will see someone cry for good reason, so I hope everybody has their WTF seatbelts on or whatever.

Joe and Dustin have it out in the room with the huge beds, and Dustin calls Joe out about sleeping with one of Dustin's friends to get back at him. Damn! And they get into a hollering match and there are hands in faces and whatnot, and then Dustin tries to storm out, but it ends up being hilarious because he has to leave through the little tiny door and it's absurd and laughable. Sort of like getting in a really mean and good dig at somebody and then turning around and falling on your face. Not that I've ever done that.

So then Joe goes into the common room and bitches AT THE TOP OF HIS LUNGS about Dustin so that he can hear while he's in the other room with Daniele. He says gonorrhea like eight hundred times and waves his hands and he's wearing one of those dumb army hats all crooked the entire time. Chill the hell out, Fidel Gay-stro.

While Joe is in the living room wearing me the fuck out, Dustin and Daniele are in the other room rolling their eyes about how much he sucks. Word to that. I'm officially on Team Dustin and Daniele. I love that they both think this whole thing is kind of stupid and want to have some decorum. I mean, it's Big Brother, so they'll eventually end up dressed like a bee with their asses hanging out or something, but still.

I think the nice Republican woman (Kail) just didn't want to say "Dick."


Besides, we know everyone loves some Good Dick. Maybe not so much with the "mean" or Evil.

geewits [TypeKey Profile Page]:

You left out the funny part of the "slop stuff." One of those jock guys (I can't tell them apart yet) was nonchalantly wolfing some down. "Dude! It's food!" Jen crying over her picture was absofreakinglutely creepy. I'm having fun with it so far, but I do wish they had picked a more normal person to be "America's Player." Oh well.

Foxbase Alpha [TypeKey Profile Page]:

It's interesting how none of the jock dudes in the house are acting like alpha males as it has happened in past seasons. There was hardly a peep out of them in last night's show other then their secret alliance with their "den mom" Kail.

Sweet_Mullet [TypeKey Profile Page]:

"Chill the hell out, Fidel Gay-stro" was easily the single best line of the recap, but working in a Tawny Kitaen reference was pretty classic as well. Nice job Schoonie!

JasonR [TypeKey Profile Page]:

Foxbase (#3), I agree. Those lunks looked like they had the potential to be the next Scott & Jase, but it appears they've actually got some brains in their heads (or have at least watched the show before) and know enough to just chill, quietly cement an alliance, and let other people draw fire.

So far I'm liking this season.

BTW, Jen is a total psycho. A girl that hot with such low self esteem is a guy's dream. She will definitely be putting out for the first guy in that house who tells her he thinks she's pretty (and that includes Dick).

Ugh.... I have the feeds and let me tell you, these people are boring as shite.
I wish the feeds were as exciting as the show..... sigh.
But anyways.. as for Jen crying over her photo. That was freaking HILARIOUS. I don't know why she was crying over it when she's made some seriously ugly nobrain, drool coming out of the corner of her mouth faces for the feeds that will most likely make it to air.

rainbodragon [TypeKey Profile Page]:

how funny was Jen whining that she was going to stand in front of her picture until they changed it.

Amber reminds me so much of Krista (not a good thing) and Dick reminds me of Boogie. Yikes! theres a romance we DON"T need to replay. vote out Amber immediately!

Foxbase Alpha [TypeKey Profile Page]:

I think that Carol will unfortunately go this week for no reason other than Amber "subtly" campaigning the next few days that she is a cocktail waitress/single mother who comes from a long line of cocktail waitresses/single mothers who really, really needs the money.

criscogirl [TypeKey Profile Page]:

You forgot the best part of the show...Jessica saying "And we all shouted Go Blue!...because we were on the blue team" then a pretty serious blank stare toward the camera. This girl has to stay on because she's the equivalent of Heidi on "The Hills"...the most annoying cast member that never fails to provide entertainment.

schoonie [TypeKey Profile Page]:

Wrong, because the best part was Jen crying. God, that was awesome. I usually black out during Jessica's confessionals.

may1 [TypeKey Profile Page]:

Great recap, schoonie. What I loved about the Jen picture crying episode, was the sad music that played. The editors really had a field day with that one. I can't wait for Jen to break a nail! Get the oxygen ready.

sparky [TypeKey Profile Page]:

Carol is like the good twin version of Ana-Lucia. And I want phobic Kail out ASAP. I'm liking Eric because of that pair of clips: Eric saying he sure there'll be some fanatic, and then the one of Kail packing her bible.

meliasaurus [TypeKey Profile Page]:

Does anyone else think that Kail talks like a computer. she doesn't speak fluidly.

slutty_whore [TypeKey Profile Page]:

I hate Kail. She reminds me too much of Adria from Season 5. And what was up with her saying she had her "reasons" for nominating Amber and Carol? Could she be trying to get rid of all the women so the men in her alliance will focus on her? She is weird, phobic, hateful, and doesn't speak well! Hate her!

Jessica is the reincarnation of Holly, who broke up the Scott/Jase alliance in Season 5.

I. Heart. Big. Brother.

fozziebare13 [TypeKey Profile Page]:

The thing about Kail that bothers me the most is the way she misconjugates verbs. "The two who WAS nominated" or "That burger WERE good." Shut up, we hate you!

Does nobody else see a frightening Kail = S6 Maggie similarity? This can't go on.

Shollia [TypeKey Profile Page]:

YES fozzie! I thought that as soon as she made her homophobic comment. All I could picture was Maggie.

And yes, she does talk like a robot when she has to read something. Girl needs to practice in a mirror on how to speak fluidly when reading off something.

JayhawkAnne [TypeKey Profile Page]:

"First we get a montage of Eric (who I think wears a hearing aid)"

I thought so too, at first, but now I think it's just that he has that little flap of cartilage at the front of his ear pierced with a silver hoop (to match his nipples, I suspect). That flap is called the Tragus, as I found out by doing a google search ('cause not knowing was driving me a little crazy): http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/images/ency/fullsize/1126.jpg

I wish the feeds were as exciting as this recap!
These people are sooooo boring. America's Choice Eric curses like a sailor and easly becoming one of the most annoying players ever.

pq [TypeKey Profile Page]:

great recap--very funny. jen's meltdown was unreal. i love dustin for laughing in her face--she must have left her medication at home.

i want kail gone--now. that woman is going to drive me crazy, plus i have a thing against homophobic control freaks.

jessica is going to have to stfu--although i loved "we all shouted go blue cause we were on the blue team"--she does remind me of holly. i hope carol stays just to annoy jessica, plus i think i like carol--amber, not so much.

princesspeapod [TypeKey Profile Page]:

Oh my god, Jen is a complete disaster... I LOVE it! How long before she totally schizes out and has to be removed from the house? What's even funnier is that she is the supposed "ringer" that Chilltown coached and got into the house. Nice choice, boys. Be proud.

If you think the jorts and vests are bad, wait until you see the poncho Joe was rockin' the other day. I'm sure it will make an appearance in future confessionals.

According to the feeds, there is a bat that has been flying around the backyard. The houseguests have named it the Chen-bat. Awesome.

schoonie [TypeKey Profile Page]:

Thanks for the tidbits, but as a reminder, the TVGasm rule is that there is no talking about the live feeds in the comments section whatsoever.

It sometimes ruins/spoils the show for people that only watch the TV airings, even if it's not game related. For instance, there could be a whole segment about the bat on tonight's show, and then we'll get a bunch of mean e-mails about it, which is bad.

If you want to talk about the feeds, register for the forums, please. There are a whole bunch of crazy people in there and they'd love to have more people join their crazy brigade. It's no biggie this time and we love your comments, so please don't take this as a blanket disapproval. Discuss show content only from now on, please.

GIFFORDSAZ [TypeKey Profile Page]:
