Tonight on Big Brother, Kevin makes 987 fug faces and Michelle gets depressed and goes for the razors.
Previously, Jordan almost had to get airlifted out of the house for a broken Ziplock.
Kevin is amped up this week, and he goes from making a wacky face or two an episode to making like a hundred in less than five seconds.
We start where we left off: With Kevin teaching us that if you're probably not gonna win anyway, you might as well advertise for a husband upgrade.
And I can cook, too!
He doesn't stop with trying to get his ankle behind his neck.
Ok, thanks. You might wanna start trying to win, now.
No one's having an easy time of running down the slick lanes with their cups of chocolate milk leaking all over the place, but I feel the worst for Kevin, because in addition to the falling, he has to listen to Natalie's nasally yapping "don't let it leak! It's leaking on the sides! Kevin don't let it leak. Don't fall. Don't leak. Don't fall. Don't leak." SHUT UP!
Jeff cheers Jordan on like the dad of an armless child at a swim meet. It's hopeless that she'll ever win, but it's sure cute to watch her try. Kevin says that he hasn't won jack cracker and if he doesn't win this challenge then he deserves to go home. Nat almost falls backward, but thankfully Yul Brenner is right behind to catch her.
Jeff is positive that no one would lie to him on Big Brother, so he's happy go lucky, thinking he's safe. Cut to post eviction, where Nat tells us that her master evil plan of getting rid of Jeff is near it's completion! All she has to do is...win a challenge. Not gonna happen. Next! Maybe Kevin will win! Better plan.
At first I thought Jeff was being a smartass when he hugged Russell on his way out and told him "keep it classy, brah", but turns out he meant it. Russell really left with some grace, according to Jeff. He left kissing Donato ass and looking like a bumbling hack minion, in my humble opinion. I might think differently if he'd at least taken off his shirt one last time. It's kinda sad to see Russell's headshot change from color to black and white. Like he's being kicked out of LA and back to community theater.
Kevin, for one, is glad Russell's gone. While telling us this, he makes a hundred new fug faces.
Jordan was so nervous Russell was going to get saved that her armpits are sweating. She gets even more flummoxed when it starts to rain in the HOH comp. The rain doesn't stress her, but trying to figure out if "slipperier" is a word almost puts her into a catatonic state.
Michelle has figured out a way to get more liquid in her holes. By using her hands to squeeze all the excess milk into the...ok this is just getting disgusting. Kevin, who looks a bit behind, says it's important to get in a rhythm and "Don't fall, foo!" Are the gays celebrating Dr. T now in slang? Cuz I'm not ok with that. Just my vote.
Jordon starts off strong, but the rain and the weight of her new Ziplocks start to wear on her, until she's slipping and biting it consistently. Jeff thinks it's the funniest thing in the world and laughs and laughs. So do I, but I'm not trying to bang her.
He laughs and tells her to watch her cup. She looks down at her boob. LOL. He asks if she popped it and she answers honestly. "I don't know." Just in case, she holds it. Poor thing has two holes to plug now.
Natalie keeps falling on her ass too, while wacky organ music plays. She's even getting beat by Jordan, so decides now's the time to save face. She tells us that Kevin's winning, which means she'll be safe anyway. Why show any of the HGs that she's a strong competitor? HAHAH. Oh! So you're incapable of winning ANYTHING on purpose? Well, I gained eighty pounds this year because I was sick of everyone treating me better just cuz I was so much hotter than them, so I understand. DELUSIONAL! She gives up, and doesn't try to hide it. Kevin starts getting pissed that she's making him do all the hard work, and as dumb as she's proven herself to be, it's amazing that she's doing this a couple of weeks after Kevin voted out his BFF.

Somehow Flipit, you manage to make the most boring episodes brilliant. Thanks for the laughs this morning! :)
Yes, please vote out Michelle. That way the remaining weeks can be devoted to stimulating topics like Is It An Apple or An Orange? Ugh.

I am still wondering, as I was last night, why Kevin was watering Astroturf.
Also, why did Kevin keep saying "they" were safe? That would've meant that he was putting Natalie up. Did Jeff really think that? Color me confused.

Loved your recap but now I'm going to have Chola nightmares. There really needs to be a Chola horror flick. She is scarier than Freddie or Jason. Whewwww, I'm still trying to shake it off.

So funny Flipit, very enjoyable read. LOVE the Chola makeup video.
One thing I noticed, I think (it's hard sometimes paying full attention to these idiots)...was that even after Ratalie failed miserably at that chocolate transport challenge she still referred to herself as a "strong competitor" or something along those lines.
That is just aggravating to me. She hasn't won ANYHTING and she still things she is so great.
Why, why, why. I hate her so much. When is she going to leave?!?!?!?!?

This is the point in the season where it is incredibly painful to watch because it is boring as watching paint dry. The producers just start scraping the bottom of the barrel for lame segments that make the houseguest look even more "challenged" than they usually do. Jordon not knowing fruit, Natalie freaking out over bugs, and Kevin watering astroturf. They aren't even in sequence. Notice Michele eating slop during the fruit segment.
One thing I couldn't help notice this season --- there have only been visits to Jeff, Jordon and Chima's families. I don't count that lame-ass phone call Natalie won. You must really be a freak if your family wouldn't sign the consent forms to be on TV.
bitchirstine, I share your hate of Natalie. Unfortunately, I think she will be leaving with $50,000 right before Kevin wins the $500,000-yuck. The jury likes him and she hasn't won squat. It actually makes sense in a yucky, lame finale sort of way.

You'd think that, after 10 seasons, the producer would have figured out how to keep the show interesting as it gets down to just a few people.
This show is seriously going to suck in another week. Doesn't matter who gets kicked off, because all of the dweebs remaining are just pathetic
The only thing that will reveal Rubberface will be if he pulls a surprise and blindsides Nastylie.
Of course he won't. The wimp.

Great recap of a looong boring episode. I couldn't believe how much of the HOH competition we had to watch while they cleverly kept us in the dark about how far in front Kevin was. Michele was second and it wasn't even close!
Ratalie noted that she wanted to keep it a secret that she's a strong competitor. Nice work on that secret - for the whole season! She is weak and rides on other's coattails - a true floater (like Jordan). I want her gone this week (impossible unless Kevin turns on her)!
I think Kevin's only strategic move was lying to Jeff and then putting him up. He's gotten pretty far on nothing much - although he does do well in some competitions.
WHY are they not talking about the jury house and who would get votes?! Even if Jordan is perceived as nice - she can't be given any points for game play. Maybe that's Jeff's strategy.
I sort of like Michele. Hooray for smart people - although she makes some dumb moves. She needed to talk someone onto her side for the last couple of weeks but she just sits there!

FANTASTIC recap! I LOVED the Chola video. If I had only seen this a couple of weeks ago. I was in New Zealand standing in line to pay for a toll, and this BRAT kept banging on a hollow metal pole and the sound made my fillings vibrate. I told him he was being annoying and he just grinned at me. He started it up again a minute later and I told him I might have to kill him. He LAUGHED at me. A nine-year old boy dissed me. BUT - I had no make-up on. If I had been Chola'd up he would have run to his (useless) mother in abject terror. It's never to late to learn a few things.

Kevin's boyfriend is attractive. Why is he with Kevin?
Kevin always seems to be showing us his nails. What's that about?
9 of 14 | Posted by Mr Dangerous | Posted on September 1, 2009 7:23 AM
He also insists on showing us the undersides of his eyeballs.
I think he's the biggest disappointment of the whole season. Remember, he's the one who called Ratso out on being 18 on the very first episode.
Since then, he's mostly drooped around a lot.

LOVE you Flipit! Especially the screenshot of Kevin back in his truck stop days!
Is there any way that BB could make a twist, like, at the end of the season let them all know that NONE of them are worthy of the $500,000 and that they're going to roll it over to Season 12 and make it a cool million? Because truthfully I kinda hate all of them and don't want any of them to win anything at all. Ever.
Although, wouldn't it be delish if Michelle won POV and put up Jordan in her place? I would be giggling like mad.
love, J-Mo :)

I guess Ratalie is the definition of floater, right? I love her "strategies" like telling them all she was 18...does that even matter anymore? Did it ever matter? What a strange lie. And she was a Tae Kwon Do champion but she can't do win at life...ugh just go away.

I want Michelle to beat up Natalie. Is it wrong of me to want that?
It would be so cool to see Michelle slap Natalie about 15 times and then put Natalie's head in the toliet.
If the producers really want to give America something they want -- instead of trying to fix the game in Jeff's favor -- have Michelle beat up Natalie.

I too can think of times that had I had the right Chola eyebrowns (that what she called them) I would have been taken much more seriously.
Ratalies lie, if anyone still believes it, would backfire in the final 2. Who would give 500k to an 18 year old? And I would love to see Michelle knock her around too.
There is no excuse for Jordan to have gained so much weight. Doesn't she realize how sexy Jeff would be as a personal trainer? Stradled over her spotting her chest presses, sweat dripping off his own chest, yelling "do it, do it!" Oh my....
