Big Brother 19

I think Paul is playing a better game this time around and he's definitely a much much better player than Rob ever was. What made that whole season of Survivor incomprehensible to me was the fact that Rob was essentially a sitting duck with no strategy every single week, but people inexplicably refused to pull the trigger over and over (or were instructed not to, because really...). Paul's actually running his alliance because he's been able to win their trust so that's at least something. With Ramses gone, the hex will definitely come into play next week but I doubt anyone will be able to pick up on that.

I guess I'm rooting for Alex at this stage. I also really like Christmas but more as a person than as a player.

Eh. Alex saying Paul is going to win so she's aligning with him so she can at least get kind of far ruined it all for me.

Why in the world would Jess reveal she accepted the last temptation and that she and Cody are safe?

She's an idiot. I think the stuff Mark told Paul was just as bad, though. I cannot with these people.

[Dr.ciski77]

Jess apparently tried to make it seem like her tempation would protect Cody and her until jury but Paul sniffed out that it's bullshit. It's gonna be either the two of them on the block (in which case the hex is forced out) or Mark and Elena (in which case Jess might decide to keep the hex and out goes one of the last two people she could've worked with). What a stupid, stupid move to tell everybody and give the house a chance to strategize around it.

If Paul can convince Jess not to use the hex to get Cody out...

[eurocheese]

I need Paul to go so the game can begin. I don't really love anyone, but I guess Kevin, Christmas (though she said some really gross things this week, but that move to comfort Jess was smart) and Elena, who I hope is paying Paul lip service, give me the most hope. The Paul oust is going to be huge for somebody's resume.

[Dr.ciski77]

What gross things did Christmas say?

[eurocheese]

When they were trying to figure out how to get Cody to blow up or even self-evict, she wanted to attack his military experience because she thought it would be a hot button. A lot of people online, including a lot of veterans, thought the way she talked about it was pretty disgusting.

[Dr.ciski77]

Ouch. Yeah that's disappointing. I'm actually pretty sure Jessica will play the hex tonight anyway so they shouldn't even have bothered going to him at all.
