Scott Learns New Words: Confide, Cheese - 
by B-Side
After Saturday night's "cheesse" debacle, we really thought Scott couldn't out-do himself in the wonderful world of elementary vocab. But lo! Last night provided brand new lexical challenges to our simian houseguest. Poor Scott was confounded by "confide", a relatively arcane and obscure word that is rarely put to use in Modern English. And by arcane and obscure, I mean common and basic. Scott, whose induction into Reality Idiot Hall of Fame has been a focal point of this summer, continues to amaze with his unwavering density. It's no wonder therefore that he, Jase, and Holly have forged a trifecta of mental vacancy that threatens to destroy anything and everything in its path. God bless Big Brother.
Aside from the "confide" incident, Scott kept his idiocy at normal Scott levels - which really meant that in between bubble baths with Jase and late night ball scratchings, he spent most of his time sauntering around shirtless, babbling about who knows what. His moment of glory came when he and Jase, who had previously hugged and kissed Drew in a show of support, beat up on the Head of Household for his nominations. Turns out the two guys were not so happy about Holly going up on the chopping block. For those not paying attention, Holly is Jase's cuddle buddy, and on Saturday she became the apple of Scott's eye too, but methinks he just wants to get with her because it will bring him closer to Jase.
Nevertheless, Jase and Scott full on bullied Drew about the picks, causing the poor kid to burst into tears. Drew explained that Holly was getting in the way of the Horsemen, a theory that was swiftly shot down by Jase and Scott. Yeah, Holly's completely not interfering with the Horseman's strategy. It's not like she's causing them to turn on each other or, you know, break into tears or stuff like that.
For her part, Holly spent the past few days moping around the house. She endeavored to have a heart to heart with Drew where she whined "You have this conception of me that is wrong". I think she meant "misconception" or maybe even "perception", unless of course Drew somehow conceived Holly. Hey, Project DNA...
When Holly wasn't laying down the malapropisms, she was curled up in an empty bathtub. It wasn't the strategy I would have adopted, but you know, claiming that bathtub is pretty impressive given the number of Jase/Scott bubble baths that go down. I guess those guys need to relax their tired muscles after a long day of pretending to be younger than 30. In case you missed the soundbyte, Scott commented that he is only 25 and Jase is 28 - a questionable fact that Karen so amusingly pointed out last week. I guess Jase's crowsfeet and Scott's thinning, graying hair may have led me to believe they were both over three decades old. No worries though.
