The internet is aflame today with pissed off Big Brother viewers screaming RIIIIGGGGEED!

LaWrong was sent out of the game for being a complete moron last night. That poor man’s brain is pure mush. No one can rig that. Or can they? The viewers suggest that he might have been told about “special powers” in the diary room and the fake promise swirled around in his mashed potato brains until it became his goal in life to get kicked out so that he could fly or read minds or morph into the Brad Pitt body he’s been trying to convince us he has.

Then Brendon was brought back in as “America’s Choice.” Uh-huh. No voting numbers are ever released, so (like on American Idol) there aren’t any specifics to call BS on. Besides, this is America and we aren’t always known to make the best choices. Taylor Hicks President Bush Congress Senate I’ll be here all day if I start with that. Point is,  in last night’s live show, Julie Cheniqua Chental Chenbot Moonves said that the voting was “very close” before adding that Brendon got a million votes. So out of two million votes, Brendon got half. Which means, if it was close, Dumbinic got almost that many. And no one voted for Cassi or Keith Preacher Peen?

I don’t doubt Preacher Peen didn’t garner votes, as this country is still taking a hard stand on perverted preachers, but you know Cassi got the man vote. So how in the world does what Chen said make any sense?

The bigger question is why I still try to make sense out of one of the most ridiculously wonderful shows on TV.

    Initially when I tried to vote for Cassie (the first two days,) the CBS site wouldn’t let me. There was a “problem” with it reading my Capcha Code.

    I personally voted all 10 times for Cassi. And I’m sure that Lawon was influenced by the diary room – they all are at one point or another.

    I don’t really care if it’s rigged or not. I’m just hoping to see Brenda evicted all over again, just like Kaysar. Danielle to win a payback’s a bitch HOH… Please!

    I said it in the forums and I’ll say it here as well, the vote wasn’t rigged, there was just no way Sniffles WASN’T gonna win. Example:
    Kittkatt’s Jenius Breakdown of Votes:
    Keith- nobody
    Cassie- guys who watch the live feeds religiously in the hopes that a girl will slip up while dressing and/or showering and they will glimpse a second of exposed tit or cuca
    Dom- teen-aged girls and middle-aged overweight woman with cats (basically the same group of people who voted Howdy Doody to win AI)
    Brendon- votes from whatever actual fans he has, any fans of Rachels, anyone who hated Dani, Kalia, or Porche, and people who watch reality shows for the simple trainwreck values
    I rest my case.

    I do however believe that TPTB pushed the “someones coming back” twist(maybe even suggesting it would be Rachel) in every single diary sesssion to create the paranoia that caused the hamsters to keep her this week. So, IMHO, vote rigging? No. Manipulative persuassion? Hell to da yeah.

    I still think it was people who don’t watch the feeds so they thought Rachel was gonna go home were who voted for him and by Wednesday when Lawrong was put up and set to go home, all the votes were gone. I mean, who wouldn’t want to see Sniffles v. Boobs and see if he’ll be such a chivalrous man and let her win it? Plus there are a literal shit ton of Jeff and Jordan fans and since having Sniffles would help their game, every advantage they can get right?

    I don’t think it’s rigged either. Manipulated? You bet! Dominic and Brendan were the only ones with a shot of getting back in. Keith left too long ago and Cassi was not a gamer at all. Dom and Brenda were the only ones that would shake things up. And people dedicated enough to vote are going to go with the train wreck every time.

    The whole idea behind the show is an unseen power that creates doubt, manipulates and causes shifts in game power. A lot of people don’t get the Big Brother/1984 connection.

    I think everything is rigged, but call me crazy-I thought this was going to be about Boobs shouting out every move The Jerker had to make . . . he didn’t have to think or read, just grab the next ball she shouted to get by color (an easier way to spot it, and an easier way to not concentrate) That is cheating to the highest degree. They should have known it would be that idiot winning and put Boobs out to pasture. I barf, puke and wretch at the thought of them both still being there. UGH!!! And I also think it’s rigged when votes can’t be put through–Go Dani. Oh, and Lawon . .. . small loss-had my only laugh when Dani and Kalia were like, “oopsie” HAHAHA!

    @ Warren, I don’t think the Brigade was rigged, so much as the other contestants last season sucked ass. Britney realizing she had gotten played by Lane and the others was such good television for a horrible season that was dominated by that alliance of annoying alpha males.
