feeling kinda proud that I came up with the vanipulator on my own a few weeks back. Not sure if anyone else did it earlier and I missed it, but I could really use the victory so I'm claiming even if they did.

Steve Moses (Week 11) - HoH
Somerandomguy replied to Canucklehead's topic in Big Brother 17 Archives
Steve's attempts to portray dramatic emotions are as believable as Howie Mandell selling suspense on deal or no deal. Pathetic! -
As far as I can tell, I have only heard her admit that she "was" a professional gambler. I have yet to hear her say she is. Sticking to the DJ stuff. Liz and Jmac were asking her about certain DJ's and she had never heard of most of them. She would then blather on about the two or three she had seen in concert. Good thing her game is built on loyalty and truth.

I know that term all too well. It is my most unbelievable but true story. At my highschool the principle butchered the name of our saluatorian, an Asian girl whose name was Yoo Suk Kwok. I swear on everything that is holy. On a unrelated note, years ago my father was in an accident with a man named Pumm Kin

Sigmund and Freud in the Vegas tiger show?!? Liz earned a bachelors degree from Loyola university in New Orleans. She had a 3.52 GPA. That school has to be among the worst schools in America. Psychology 101 is still a required course for all bachelors degrees isn't it?

Worst season ever in BB History

My post was just a flowery way of saying exactly that Roli. Thanks for the short version. Lol! -
John "Johnny Mac" McGuire (Week 11)
Somerandomguy replied to carmen's topic in Big Brother 17 Archives
As odd of a ride as it has been with Jmac, he may have the best position. The Austwins were going to be everyone's target this week and most likely the next. Leaving him and Steve with the left over and the Vanipulator. IMO he has the jury at that point and needs only to win a final comp to win the game. Of the final 5 ( assuming Liz eliminated Thurs) Best chance of winning: 1 Jmac 2 Steve 3 Van 4 Austin 5 Julia The only other road bump could be Austin winning HoH next week. His "devil you know" strategy with Van and Genuine relationship with Steve look pretty good in hindsight -
Worst season ever in BB History
Somerandomguy replied to trector9409's topic in Big Brother 17 Archives
The twin twin weapon was never used (or figured out) As of week 10, two people could have gotten out whomever the chose by simply putting up Liz. Their votes coupled with 2 from Julia and Austin would have sent home any target regardless of alliances. Keeping the twins seemed wrong early. But if you kept them, why did nobody use them? -
9/3 TV Show (Double) Eviction Night Thread
Somerandomguy replied to uvp's topic in Big Brother 17 Archives
I don't know about mad, but I am actually relieved that I can stop watching these train wrecks of HG. Jmac is funny but balless. Steve has that dorky thing but also balless. And I have nothing redeeming to say for the rest. Perhaps I could tune in to see who gets the loudest boos upon eviction. Uneventful season. -
9/3 TV Show (Double) Eviction Night Thread
Somerandomguy replied to uvp's topic in Big Brother 17 Archives
The worst part of this show is the fake ass drama. Steve looked like he was passing a kidney stone on that vote, even though everybody knew when that second ball of James hit the ground. Vanessa " ooh I'm freaking out right now" after James left. She is aligned with the rest and just targeted James. Earliest I have given up. Nothing left but fakes, pussies, and air heads. Talk to y'all next year -
I now think I am mistaken. I believe there was luxury comps in the hide & seek variety, but not a veto. I remember Brittany winning something with gold coins hidden in the house that played the same way but for 5 or 10 grand. And it seems there was another more recent one as well but I'm not uhmembering right now.

They are so close to figuring it out. James is pushing for Austin/Judas to join him and Jmac to vote out Julia which tosses the blame on Steve. He should work the Steve route also. If the vote came out 4-1 Austin would be dead to Van and Liz. If 3-2 Austin or Steve (depending on who voted with) be dead to Van and Liz. Then in the next HoH they would only be up against Liz. If James Jmac or Steve win they put up Liz and Van and guarantee one of those to go. Even if they won the veto, they would control minimum two votes and the tiebreaker. The sell is guaranteed final four is better than finding out you are on the bottom of a final five.

I believe it was in last years game

Vanessa is poop. Not my finest comment hour, but I must speak true.
-
Sure that's true and I try not to reference them often. But I do find it hilarious to see Austin's picture solid across the bottom for 6 weeks. Usually there is a flux between a bottom 3. I don't comment over there. This is much better site for discussion and updates.

I was just checking rankings at Jokers and have some fun facts. James has been rated the favorite for the past 31 days. I would gather the AFP will be a dog fight between James & JMac with Meg as the dark horse. Meg can't win IMO. Another fun stat is that Austin has been the least favorite for 41 of the last 42 days. Him and the twins have been steadily getting beat out by Jace for the last 3 weeks. Ha!

So true!An observation I have noticed: when people are members of a group fighting for equality, they become blind to other possibilities. You should not make broad generalizations about groups of people. They fight against groups with perceptions that the world is against them even though we know that is never the case. Call it collateral damage. Is it possible that Van has experienced so many prejudices as a lesbian, she has learned to react in this manner even if is not justified. My example of this would be how she reacted to Audrey when she showed herself as a lose cannon. Vanessa wanted to give her a pass because her life has been so hard. It is a neccesary reaction, but not all the time. And definitely not in game play.

I have seen no other clips, aside from BB, of Vanessa. I consider myself a lifelong student of the human psyche, a reason I enjoy watching this game. Van has played this game with manipulation and being a victim. In her private moments she doesn't have to sell herself on these things, but genuinely believes she has been wronged. If people do not fall into her way of thinking, they are stupid or disloyal. Nothing is ever her fault. There is always someone to blame for her. IMO these are learned behaviors, not gameplay reactions. I feel she is self absorbed, overly dramatic, manipulative, crybaby, bully, with a false sense of how smart she is. All of these things have proven themselves when she is alone in a room, during the course of the season. Therefore my personal assumption is she is this horrid wretch of a person outside of the game as well.
