Big Brother After Dark

So Carol was booted out and Jen won the HOH competition. Ok, so the "stupid" person (as Joe so eloquently put it) was rewarded for being stupid. In other words, she didn't think about the question, she just put whatever number and it happened to work in her favor. See, the house has been set up with an Alice In Wonderland theme (some furniture huge, some small, a small door here, something large there, etc. A tea cup exists in the backyard (like the ones at the Disneyland and Disneyworld rides). The tie breaker question in the HOH competition was "How many gallons of water does the teacup hold?" Like most people, I thought 200+, but Jen answered 41 while the rest answered 100 and higher. Well Julie Chen informed everyone that "because of the opening to the teacup...", where you step into it, "it holds 9 gallons". How pissed was everyone that Jen won? Well, Kail wasn't, but I haven't figured her out yet. Now everyone was worried about being nominated.

On Friday night I was up late and decided to watch Big Brother After Dark (midnight to 3 am) on Showtime Too and they scroll information across the bottom of the screen from time to time. I learned who won the food competition because it was held on Friday during the day, and I also learned that nominations were that day. So the HOH has 24 or less to come up with nominations. Interesting... Of course I was going crazy all weekend wondering who she would nominate. Watching it last night it was no surprise that Evil Dick was nominated, but to hear Daniele be nominated....that was a shocker! But then I thought about it and realized it is all because she thinks that getting Daniele out of the house, Nick will now flirt with her and nobody else. Jen, open your eyes....you are a narcissistic psycho that nobody wants in the house.

Since I just happen to be awake after midnight last night (or is that this morning?), I decided to wath BBAD again. I learned that the Power of Veto competition took place that day and as a result.....spoilers coming; read at your own risk.....Jen has to wear a red jumpsuit, but they didn't give a clue as to who actually won. The Power of Veto ceremony was held today (Monday) but we won't get to see it until tomorrow night. In addition (more MAJOR SPOILERS!) Jameka thinks that Dustin is being recruited into the "Mrs. Robinson alliance" and Nick told Jen that he is in the Mrs. Robinson alliance with Mike, Zack and Kail! What the F*** is he thinking? Why would he tell her that? Obviously there is something that I missed from the previous BBAD nights, so I hope they show that footage tomorrow night. There was some other competition where Mike won a date with Amber. I got to watch some of that date and I can say that I have found someone that outdoes me in talking in every sense. The girl was going on and on and on at lightning speed for at least 20 minutes (probably more). I don't think she took one single breath and Mike looked like a Zombie sitting there trying to keep up with all of it. I'm not trying to belittle the stories she was telling because she has gone through a lot, but she could have slowed down and given the guy a chance to catch up.

Some interesting things you learn while watching BBAD is that voices come over the speakers telling this houseguest to go to the diary room or that houseguest "Eric, please put on your microphone", or when Eric, Daniele, Nick and Dustin were talking about a previous season of BB and something they did that they want to do, "Please don't talk about production" or something like that. It is creepy and funny at the same time. It is fun to watch the houseguests like that because you find out things you wouldn't normally find out, like Jen is a really good sleeper. According to some guests she sleeps all the time. And you find out more about each person because they happen to be telling something about themselves to the other houseguests.

I will try to stay up tonight to get the scoop on the Power of Veto and see if it was used, and if it was, then on who and who was put up in their place. I just don't have the patience to wait for tomorrow night. I'm a spoiler junkie on top of that!
