Big Brother 8 running thread

If Dick is acting then he is a better actor than DeNiro, Pacino and Sean Penn combined, but I don't think he is. I don't think he is capable of acting. Dick is unfailingly honest and a kind soul, but he has a Stevie Wonder-like blind spot.

Kail annoys me most of all because of her inability to defender herself against attack. Last night before the veto comp. she could have easily told the entire house about the rest of her conversation with Dick. She could've pointed out how Dick said Jen was an idiot and she'd be gone soon enough... or what he said about Nick, to get some people on her side.

I really do like Mike after last night's show. He's taking on Dick head on, which is about the only way you can. He'll earn a lot of House cred with that move. They did a wonderful job in casting this season.

 

I believe the best player to this point has been Eric. He has done a fair job of staying under the radar and staying neutral enough to keep the target off his back. In another week or two, it will be time for him to pick out a few partners in crime.

As for Dick, he's about to commit Big Brother suicide because he has issues. It's clear that he's controlling and that, as he said early on, his daughter is headstrong like him. I'm almost sure that is what caused them to clash in the past.

What Dick can't seem to see is that he has Nick eating out of his hand and Danielle on his side. He has the ultimate trio, one that isn't likely to be broken. If Eric was truly smart, he'd immediately step in and ask to be the fourth in that bunch. He could earn his way in by acting as the peacemaker.

 

Yeah, Dick's paranoia about Nick is going to end up being his downfall. He's convinced himself that Nick is really paired with Jen and can't be talked out of it. The thing about that house is, there's NOTHING else to do but think of scenarios that people are stabbing you in the back and you end up convinced that everyone is out to get you.
Here's how delusional Dick has become: On the live feed, when he was telling Daniele and some others why he doesn't trust Nick, he said "Have you ever known Nick to clean? Well, the other day, Mike and Zach were cleaning, so Nick grabbed a paper towel and he started cleaning the windows. HE STARTED CLEANING THE WINDOWS! Ahhhh-HA!"
Dick was convinced that Nick was dirty cuz he was freaking cleaning the windows. What a mindfuck that show has to be. Hahaha.

The houseguest who I think is in the best position is Jessica. I mean, she's on NO ONE'S radar, now that Carol's out of the house. Even Eric is a little more outspoken than he should be sometimes. While everyone else in the house has gotten into some sort of drama, Jessica is chillin in the jacuzzi or sunbathing watching all the commotion from afar.
I don't wanna say she's playing the best game cuz really, I don't know if she's playing. But she's in the best position to be the last person standing after everyone else has killed each other.

 

It's amazing how under-the-radar Eric is... I think if his dumbass Barbie wannabe daughter wasn't in the house, Dick would be the guy to beat...

 

I hate Eric and his facial expressions.

 

I think Eric can reach the end. I think enough people like him that he would be fine. He doesn't have any enemies.

 

I have a feeling that Eric's "America's Player" status is going to bite him in the ass. There's only so many things he can do to cause havoc before he's caught. And, I also think there's going to be a point in the game where he's going to have to vote against his alliance due to America. If he can avoid being caught, then I agree, he can make it to the final two. I just have my doubts whether he can stay under the radar when he's not allowed to play his own game.

 

I hate Eric's pierced nipples. WTF?

 

Plus, and I know it has to do with what they show us because he's AP, but every week making him go beg to put someone up, or to vote someone out, is going to get on people's nerves. I don't know if everyone does it every week...but him constantly having to run to the HOH to plug America's choice for who to nominate would make him annoying and therefore a target in my eyes.

 

I think I heard that he doesn't have to do what America is instructing him to do, but every time he completes a few tasks, I think he gets $10K or something like that...

 

Oh yeah, I forgot. It's every 3 for $10K.

Well, he's tried to do every one so far. He might want to rethink that.
