Big Brother 17: Another Change of Plans

In addition to stupid wool hat in middle of summer Vanessa’s persistent puckering of lips is even worse. She has been annoying on every poker TV broadcast I have seen her on only to surpass it on BB. As long as shelli is not crying over bumble mouth boy she is lot more enjoyable to watch. So please vote out V!

Hey Meg I think that lipstick that you are wearing has killed off some of your brain cells. What is up with these flip flop house guests? If the don’t get rid of Vanessa, she can’t be trusted where Shellie at least can keep her word. Vanessa makes way too many deals. WTF wake up!!!! They have nothing better to do in the house. Give them some board games to play or a craft project. If Becky was smart she should of kept her trap shut until the day of the votes and then told everyone about her big plan. They don’t know how to play the game and they tell someone when they are going to backdoor them. That gives the player a chance to plea their case. Stupid.

What is the story on Vanesa s house and8 money. Please let me know .

listen I get it its smarter to get out shelli at this point and to be honest shes starting to act like a teen talking just like the twins I don’t want to look at her besides everyone will be saying its boring if van goes do I like van no I just dislike shelli more

I skipped watching BBAD last night, so I missed some of the undercurrent. Perhaps with the double eviction Van may be their next choice, again depending who HOH is. I still am amazed how the twins have a potty mouth, it detracts from their sweetness. I like a lot of others enjoy Jonny Mac he seems likeable and non judgmental, but then again he gets little air time and production does control feeds. James is fun also as I don’t know what he will say next or to whom. Thanks LM as always, a great write up.

After watching the show or possibly a parody of a production of a reality show, it makes me not trust any reality show.

I don’t get it neither. I don’t understand why Becky hasn’t kept her peeps up in her HOH room keeping THE PLAN on track. Maybe it’s because her goodie-basket is overflowing with grape-NUTS rabbit food and brussel sprouts. Her “awesome snack” choices paint her as a bigger weirdo than Steve. John must be keeping his observations about Vanessa’s personality flaws to himself because every other single HG save Becky seems mesmerized by Vanessa.
But getting back to BRASS TACKS; If Vanessa stays the craziness will be entertaining.

To be honest, Becky was driving me crazy with all her banter last night. I had to mute her out. Blah, blah, blah on and on about how she carried out her plan and anything else she could think to say to anyone who would listen, breaking in on others conversations and just not shutting up. That being said I think they plan to get rid of Shelli then Becky in DE. I’m like you Lisa. I never thought I would feel this way but now after listening to Van explain what a two-faced snitch Becky is and James, Meg and Jackie talking about it all day, I tend to agree, Shelli has got to go.

@Kev….I have heard the HGs joking about Brass tacks on the LFs, but I guess I am not on it enough lately to get the joke. Do you know how it started and what it’s supposed to mean?? I was so surprised when I heard that phrase as you really don’t hear it all that much,especially in their age group. I feel like I am on the wrong side of an inside joke here…lol
Nothing has really been said about Becky’s HOH basket…on here or anywhere. I didn’t pay a lot of attention to it either except for the brussle sprouts. I don’t mind them cooked with butter for dinner, but raw?? As a SNACK?? I remember James’ face and thot…that would be me!!lol Shelli said something to her last night about how badly she eats in the house, but at home, she eats like Becky. I doubt that. Maybe it was a little food bonding!!lol I am not trying to be mean , but her food choices could account for the fact that is so pale!! She looks like she needs a good steak to me…lol The girl is in Calf in the summer, and hasn’t gotten any sun either!!Somebody needs to grab that girl and take a blush brush to her !!! lol Oh well, different generation!!

@Carolyn…I too noticed the whole Chatty Cathy thing with Becky last nite. She is normally the invisible girl. I guess she was making up for lost time and the most of her 15 seconds of HOH fame!!! I didn’t hear that she was being thought of as the 2nd evictee Thurs. Hmm…I was kind of assuming that both Shelli and Van would be leaving. I guess this just signifies that her alliance with the other side of the house was fake after all and they figured it out! It’s been a busy week and I guess I haven’t been keeping up!! Looks like it may be an even MORE interesting nite on Thurs than we thought!!! 🙂

Van can pull this off I will be thinking she has the same fair dust that Dan Gheesling has. One of the all-time greats in my mind.big brother 10. Let’s see if she can survive a double eviction

20/20 BB hindsight
It looks like Becky should have aligned with Vanessa and nominated backstabbing Meg, James, Jackie
There isn’t anyone on BB17 who isn’t a bad BB game player and Steve is the worstest SUPERfan ever.

@Star – Put away that new iPhone and pay attention! LOL!! Re the brass tacks phrase…on one of the sites a transcriber wrote brass “TACTS,” to which I chuckled knowing there was a clueless youngan’ on the other end of that keyboard. Later it was pointed out to he/she that it should have been “TACKS.” I missed the joke too so don’t feel alone. Maybe originated with Austin? I get a kick out of some of his little buzzwords, like “scamper.”

@KevInDenver – I wondered if the Goblins had yet confessed to Becky of their jumping ship. “Balked” sounds fairly calm…I would have expected her to blow a fuse!! Do you know why all the reference to BRASS TACKS?

Yesterday Goblins…today Gremlins…don’t blink or we’ll miss something!!

oh boy…the dummies this yr are so swayed…not a solid group of house guests for 2015…do this yo yo’s realize that it is utmost importance to get them both out…HELLO…you doorknobs…get Vanessa out first and then get out Shelli…guess what…you can do it all in ONE SHOW…let’s see if they can keep some what cool heads and realize that they can still get both out unless Shelli wins the first HOH on Thursday…I don’t trust any of them to do the right thing…

On my way to the surgeon…. dreading it

Sounds like James is talking about making jail house booze.

i told ya this was not a bright group in 2015…oh James and Meg…really…he must be making fruity candy hooch and Meg…Brass Tax…do you think the IRS knows about that part…it was nice to see the little clip the other day with Derrick and Cody…I really do think we need to have a BB STARS SEASON again…lets get some seasoned vets in there…maybe a bunch of 2nd and 3rd place finishers…

Good luck Tendr! Hoping for a pain-free visit to the surgeon.

One question, do the HGs know that this Thursday is a double eviction?

Watching Vanessa pitching her typical non-stop BS on the live feeds early today to Meg and Jackie and even confessing to the one and only lie she has ever spoken in the house accompanied by Meg and Jackie’s always predictable giggle duets, I have to wonder at what point did the fake boobsie twins giggle out their few remaining brain cells.

TENDR – well wishes for you! have a nice nap

Thanks for your write up Lisa ♥ So lets get down to the BRASS TACKS 😆 Who is going out ❓ Not so sure right now, I think you all are saying that now Shelli goes to the jury house
& Vanessa stays in the house, right! ………. Who’s on First ? 🙂 Thanks for all your comments I am just catching up! ……………………………

Getting down to brass tacks. You use them when you run out of the steel ones, . Its used as in: We’ve used up all the best tacks we’ll have to finish with the brass tacks.
