Big Brother 21 — Uncomfortable Times In The House

Hi y’all!

So, the last day or so has been extremely awkward and uncomfortable in the House. It’s not just the fact that Tommy has the veto and he’s going to use it on Christie and then Cliff is going to go up on the block. Instead, it’s that Jackson and Holly had a huge argument last night, one that was deeply uncomfortable to watch.

Basically, Holly got mad at Jackson because he revealed his personal nickname for a part of her anatomy. So, during the veto comp, Holly apparently called Jackson an “asshole.” This led to Jackson freaking out because, according to him, America is going to see her call him that and, even worse, his mom is going to see her call him that and then everyone’s going to think that Jackson’s not a nice person.

Uhmmm …. sorry, Jackson. I think most of America made up its mind about during the first few weeks of the season.

Anyway, the fight went on and on for hours and it was extremely uncomfortable to watch because Jackson would not stop going on and on about how much she had hurt him and Holly would not stop taking the blame. Occasionally, she did suggest that he was overreacting but she always quickly followed up by apologizing for making him overreact. Holly kept saying that the only reason they were fighting was because of the stress of being in the house while Jackson kept saying that it would be even worse on the outside because — thanks to Holly — America hates him now.

As uncomfortable as it was for us to watch it, we at least had the option of muting the sound or just turning off the feeds. The other houseguests weren’t so lucky. They’re locked in the House so there was no way for them to escape all of the Holly/Jackson relationship drama. Nicole compared it to having to listen to her parents fight.

However, as of this writing, it appears that the fight has resolved itself. Holly has taken all the blame and has begged Jackson to forgive her. Jackson, in a very condescending tone of voice, replied, “You will always have my respect.” And now, they’re in love again.

Seriously, someone needs to do an intervention on Holly because I’ve never seen anyone so willing to be a doormat.

Anyway, veto meeting is tomorrow and Tommy is probably going to save Christie. Cliff should be going up in her place but, for now, Jessica remains the target.
