Big Brother 6, September 6Live Feeds: How Do I Hate Thee? Let Me Count the Ways

Shhhhh!!!!

I’d say good morning, but only Ivette is up, so I don’t want to wake the rest… OK, I don’t want to wake Janelle and Howie. The rest I don’t mind waking.

So back to Ivette. Our latest HOH (shudder) slept on the floor of the HOH room while her friends left in the HOH bed… together… (I’ll give the straight guys a moment to visualize that). OK, back with me? It seems that the houseguests had some McDonalds yesterday that didn’t agree with them, especially Ivette, who was feeling really bad when she went to sleep. Being that the floor is not the most comfortable place to sleep (what with floors having that annoying habit of being hard), it’s no wonder Ivette is the first one awake. And what’s the first thing she does? Feed the fish. Ahhhh, that girl is all heart… not!

There’s an inside lockdown, which is pretty convenient considering that almost everyone is still sleeping… inside. Ivette does dishes as Big Brother officially rouses the other houseguests. The feeds go to fish as Big Brother tells them of the day ahead.

Now that the houseguests are all awake, the lockdown is over. Isn’t it just amazing how these two things just happen to coincide? Since Big Brother is an equal opportunity lockdowner (is that even a word?), they announce an outside lockdown.

During lockdown, Howie joins The Fiendship members and they discuss who their friends are and where they live. April mentions that her friend Marie asked her never to mention her name on the air. (Wouldn’t it be funny if that bit makes it onto the show?) Janelle chooses to work on her tan instead.

After lockdown, the houseguests give the house the usual once over to see what if anything has changed, but apparently nothing much has. Even The Fiendship’s topics of discussion haven’t changed. They’re STILL bashing Janelle. Maggie says Janelle is “not a bombshell anymore.” April, in between picking her nose, accuses Janelle of being selfish. Yeah, they’re the right ones to talk about beauty and being virtuous.

Ivette and Maggie are practicing for HoH and talk turns to who they think will be eliminated. They write off Howie’s eviction as a formality this week, with Janelle going next week. Maggie says she’ll probably go the week after.

Ivette is back in what seems to be her favorite room today – the kitchen. She’s cleaning, cooking, and doing dishes. Hey Ivette, when you get evicted (and you know you will), there are some dishes in my house that need cleaning. Maggie says that there are three empty containers: Oreos, Reeses, and M&Ms. They shake their heads (obviously implying that Howie and Janelle hate them). The nerve of those two – how dare they eat the food that’s in the house!

April whines about how disheveled she looks and how much stuff she has to pack (now that Janelle used the Veto to save herself and Ivette put April up instead) and how it probably won’t all fit. Her solution? Go work out. It’s like I always say: Don’t put off until later what you can put off now.

April doesn’t stop chatting with Maggie while they work out. Apparently April has yet to realize that one-word answers are a subtle hint that the person does not wish to talk while working out.

Meanwhile Janelle and Howie are in the backyard. They are joking that Howie is complimenting her figure just to get her vote. Janelle says she’s not going to talk to any of the Fiendship’s members because they’re all ignoring her anyway. They try to figure out who would get votes from whom. Howie tells Janelle not to worry about what the Fiendship thinks, since she’s the strongest player in the house and it’s not true that she can’t win. Janelle suggests creating a kind of scandal that would make Ivette vote off one of her own alliance members.

After Ivette washes more dishes, which they suspect Howie and Janelle of using since April and Maggie were working out, the three of them head outside to be greeted by… an awkward silence. So they start discussing the one thing they can all agree on – how horrible Janelle is and how she leaves things everywhere. Maggie says she has two more weeks left of being a maid. April says she threw Janelle’s robe in the corner.

Later, when it’s just April and Maggie talking, April tells Maggie about how Ivette said she needed the money more than anyone, but when Ivette comes back out, April quickly changes the subject. Nice friend. Obviously she realized she wasn’t doing something a friend would really do, which is why she changed the subject.

April asks if Maggie and Ivette would do something like Big Brother again. Maggie says no and that she’s learned a lot about herself while in the house. Ivette says she would if it were shorter, but that she thinks it’s harder on her because she has a lesbian girlfriend. Maggie is of the opinion that the game hasn’t taken as much of a psychological and emotional toll on Janelle, because she’s single. April adds Howie’s and Rachel’s names to that list. Is there anything that doesn’t inspire a hatefest between the two groups?

As Maggie and April sleep in the backyard, Janelle has the munchies and makes tuna melts. Howie is in the kitchen telling Janelle about the time he went on Blind Date just for kicks, not really as someone looking for a date. Janelle says she’s thought about going on the show. Howie thinks she’d be great on that show.

April is awake and doing laundry. Somehow she manages to get in another dig at how messy Janelle is. Janelle is still waiting for her tuna melt to… umm… melt. She and Howie start discussing Star Wars and Janelle asks him a lot of questions about the movies. She says she wants to be a Star Wars fan. Howie sounds kind of surprised by this. Janelle says she’d like to own the DVD box set. She’d like to watch them all with Michael once the game ends, as he’s also a Star Wars fan, according to Howie.

Talk turns to horror movies. Both Janelle and Ivette saw The Blair Witch Project and thought it was true. Apparently they missed the memo about how it was a mockumentary.

Maggie and April are on the hammock talking about the game and… yes! We have a new record! Four minutes before they start with the Janelle bashing. Howie and Janelle are in the Gold Room discussing who Howie would have put up if he won the first HoH.

Ivette has now joined her fellow Fiendship members and they start bashing Howie – you know, just for a change of pace – but it doesn’t take long before the bashing reverts back to Janelle. Ivette claims Janelle has put her through three months of hell (ummm, and your proof would be… what, Ivette?) Maggie says of Janelle “You’re a sh***y person. Congratulations!” And they wonder why America hates them.

Proving that there is only so long you can bash one person, talk changes to how Maggie found it offensive that Rachel would hang around and talk to them. The nerve of her! How dare she try to strike up conversations with her fellow housemates – and those on the opposing team, no less! Maggie says that she didn’t go and “plop herself down” in the Gold Room. Well, it’s not like she didn’t have that choice. Maggie also complains about how the “What up, Kaysar?” chant bothered her. Jealousy, perhaps? The Janelle-bashing resumes.
