As Danielle's World Turns

Ratings - Flock This edition

Tuesday: I'm not looking forward to the stupid Flock to Unlock spam in my timeline Wednesday, but they get ups for a booze delivery because I sort of promised I'd be their best friend if that happened (yes, it's that easy to buy ups here), even if it didn't result in the excitement we'd hoped for. I'm pretty sure Janelle's pretty sure she's going, and another booze delivery tomorrow night would make things extra interesting. Please make it so? And throw in some extra? We've earned it with this group. Wednesday: Yes they gave them booze for their party but they blocked it from us, theoretically due to music and copyright issues. You'd think they could make a phone call and get permission to play some songs or even shell out a few bucks to do so and/or do 20 minutes of research to get some public domain titles, but no. It's not their fault Janelle got sippy and didn't go busto on someone, but not being able to watch and be disappointed live by that is their fault, not to mention cake being head-butted and flung around the house. But they added severe insult to injury when they again went to fishies music to block a group hum of the fishies music.
TEAM JANELLE She's entering Who? territory again.	TEAMIES: Frank, Ian, Jenn WON $6,000 It sure seems like the change between Thursday's down 'n out ready to quit and Friday's fully laid plan and flipped script was more than the result of a good night's sleep, but you know me, conspiracy theorist deluxe when it comes to BB. I understand that he could fool the ones who never heard of BB before June, but it's impossible to buy that the last Chilltown representative still doing reality TV could pull it off a third time! And with two vets and several knowledgable fans no less, but we could be headed there. It smelled very suspicous (and very foul) when he said producer 'Don Wollman's been a mentor of mine, 11 years together', don't you think?
TEAMIES: Shane, Willie, JoJo She's got to be ready to 'shoot herself in the face' after soaking up as much of Danielle's stuff as she has, but she probably just wants to ensure Janelle gets gone without any mishaps or explosions. I hope we get a Diary or two about Danielle from her - we've earned it. She's said many times she doesn't want to be mean or catty this time but she's going overboard on Janelle, and Janelle's fans have noticed.. she'd come out of this a lot better if she'd gone after Danielle, but I have a feeling we'll get there too.	TEAMIES: Kara, Danielle, Jodi WON sushi party His work for this week is almost done and Clean Hands Dan will come out looking clean again, at least for now. He's very okay with sitting back and letting Danielle take the credit for his handiwork, but we all know whose HOH this was and so do they. I don't think he can keep juggling so many balls for much longer without dropping a few, especially when he has to constantly babysit Danielle. I bet he's wishing he'd kept Kara or Jodi.
TEAM DAN HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD - USED VETO She deserves ups for being the wreckiest hamster trainwreck we've ever had, but she's also exhausting to keep up with, so it's a resounding neutral for her. If Janelle figures everything out and goes off on her or somehow survives eviction, Danielle might freak out enough to quit. That could be fun, and it would also solve the pesky extra hamster problem they've got.	TEAM BOOGIE - NOMINATED WON 1 week spiritard His new catsuit is too small and the skirt's gone from wonky to janky, but he's being a reasonably good sport about it. I have to laugh when Janelle complains about him being farty, considering her bestie for two seasons in there was Howie. I just shake my head when people out here complain about his BO - is there a smell-o-vision app I'm unaware of? It's typical BB villification: repeat derogatory stuff about your enemy often enough and people will believe it, both in there and out here.
TEAM BOOGIE WON $3,000, 24 hour dog's life I like his convos a lot whether gametalk or not, but I don't really understand his game. He told Jenn tonight that he liked his Dog's Life but he wouldn't have been able to handle 24 hours in solitary because he's 'too much a social creature'. Other times he's talked about having poor social skills because he's usually on his own, and can happily spend weeks at home without seeing other people. Maybe it's targeted advertising that changes depending who he's talking to. He also said tonight that he was on a teen edition of Jeopardy once, but he 'didn't win shit'.	TEAMIES: Wil, Ashley, Joe - NOMINATED She seems this close to being resigned to go, and she's taking it well. She'll have a field day with Danielle's retells and other things when she gets out, not to mention when she finds out exactly what Dan & Britney have been up to. Her campaigning's rather transparent and even though this is far from the brightest group we've ever had, it isn't likely to be effective. But you know how they are: they might tip someone off in Diary or spring a Pandora or Coup de What since it's Janelle - wouldn't that blow things up? And while I doubt we'll see the likes of this again, I sincerely hope we get at least a 'bye bye bitches' on her way out.
TEAM BOOGIE WON $1,000, Hawaii trip She's in the game now but I'm still posting daily Jenn Sightings since she's still hard to find on the feeds most of the time. I've discovered that when I do find her, I'm not crazy about what I hear. She hinted to Wil & Ashley that she's getting paid more than the standard $750 per week and if that's the case, she should bring more than the standard entertainment value and she just doesn't. I worry a little about her band: they were abandoned for the summer with no gigs.	TEAM JANELLE HE'S HOLDING UP PRETTY WELL WITHOUT CIGS AND HASN'T SAID MUCH IF ANYTHING ABOUT NICOTINE WITHDRAWALS BUT HE REMAINS DIFFICULT TO LISTEN TO ANYWAY. I HOPE HE KEEPS COOKING FOR THEM BECAUSE IT DRIVES THEM NUTS EVEN THOUGH THEY EAT EVERY BITE AND COMPLIMENT HIM EVERY NIGHT. JANELLE PROMISED HIM ONE OF HER PUPPIES BUT HER DOGGIE'S PREGNANCY DIDN'T 'TAKE' SO THERE AREN'T ANY PUPPIES. AT LEAST HE WON'T BE ABLE TO SHOUT AT IT.
TEAM BRITNEY WON Veto ticket He told Danielle tonight he's a virgin. She took it as a joke ('oh, sure') and that was that, but it would explain a LOT if it's true. He also told her to call him Whale Penis. She didn't, but I might.	TEAM JANELLE WON $5,000 He did a few skits tonight but he's still so far from fulfilling his potential that I'm just about finished giving him chances.
TEAM BRITNEY - WON nothing She promised to bring it, but apparently she left it on Staten Island since she failed to fight even when confronted. She talked a lot but it was mostly the same loops over and over: she only gets along with East Coast girls, she's street-smart, she's loyal, and she's loyal, know what I mean? She was scouted via Facebook to get here, and that's where she should have stayed. Now she can get back to modeling and piloxing.	TEAM BRITNEY - WON nothing (Possibly forfeited stipend) He spent two weeks laying in HOH bed, parannoying his brains out even though he was perfectly safe, and his fall from HOH was the hardest we've ever seen. He head-butted himself out the door when he might have been saved by veto, so he'll go into the BB blunders pile. I didn't come in with Hantzophobia so I'm grateful for the cheap entertainment he brought, especially the Froot Loops war and Willieisms like 'key-hos', 'corn-ho', and 'totin' pole'. He's the first hamster to pose for his mug shot while his season was still underway.
TEAM DAN - WON nothing She brought a big name and rep to the show but didn't live up to either. She seemed like a nice enough girl but she didn't bring much to the feeds, and her sister wife wardrobe greatly disappointed her pre-existing fanbase. She'll be remembered for extra shiny knees and little else - she didn't even campaign to stay.	TEAM DAN, for a minute - WON nothing Most were looking forward to seeing what she'd bring, but she got a raw deal and was gone before the feeds even kicked on. She'd said she was worried about lack of privacy & sleep, missing her family, and slop, so maybe BB wasn't for her, and she got away without airing any dirty laundry. It had to be humiliating to go back in for the group bikini pic but that's how they do things.
