This is the thread to discuss stuff from Big Brother that has not aired including, but not limited to: After Dark, Live feed, Jokers/Mortys.
If you read on . . . do NOT whine about us spoiling the show for you

* * * * OK read further at your own risk * * * *


I can't believe all that has happened! OMG Especially Jen flaunting it repeatedly by eating so many times! It sounds like the whole house has turned on her. It would make me crazy if I was there, it is making me crazy now! She is exactly the reason that I have never even tried to go on BB. I could put up with her for about a week and then I would have to say something about her attitude. I hope that she sees herself after the show and realizes how she has acted, but I really don't see it happening!

Here's what I've gathered about the Jen situation.

Initially, she was going to be given a penalty nomination for eating food while on slop. The penalty nomination basically meant that she would be placed on the block NEXT week and that she'd have no chance to compete for veto. This wouldn't be the worst scenario for Jen because it could (and started to) cause other HGs to strategize that it might be worthwhile to keep her an extra week since she wouldn't be able to compete for anything.

Today, it looks like BB has changed the punishment for eating food while on slop--now it seems that she's getting a penalty vote THIS week... basically an extra vote against her.

I know that all this stuff is probably outlined in the BB rule book (which Jen has been reading for the past couple of days--well before she began her chaotic downward spiral). I'm curious to see the wording of the rules and penalties because it seems really unfair that they could change the penalty like that.

The problem for Jen here is that it's not a little thing to be eating food while on slop because this isn't like losing a food competition for the week. Remember, she chose to go on slop for a month as part of a POV competition. By doing that (and a few other things) she won POV and another HG went home. The other HGs stuck with their obligations (bunny suits, anyone?), and it's not fair that Jen gets to dismiss hers.

Jen said that she asked the producers before going on the show if she could destroy cigarettes and they said yes. Then after she destroyed the cig's they just went to Ralph's and bought him 3 more cartons! Do you think Jen really asked?

See, now that's the part I missed. Why in the heck did Jen destroy ED's cigarettes in the first place?? Because she was nominated??

I think she was just tired of ED's antics.

She isn't getting penalized for destroying the cigs (although I think she should be--as should anyone who damages personal property). She's getting penalized for eating regular food while on slop.

Pn afterdark ED said that they locked Jen's clothes in Danielle's HOH room and left the key with ED. I wonder if Jen got her clothes back.

Soon to be 3rd grade!
I don't think Jen really asked about destroying cigarettes prior to the start of the show. It just doesn't make sense, who would think to ask that? And if she really did ask, why wait until now to do it when ED has been antagonizing her all along. I did kind of like Jen for the way she has handled ED's antics, I probably would have flipped out on him. However, she is completely disrespecting the rules of the game by eating. This game is built on people actually abiding by specific rules, it they don't play along it ruins the game. She needs to go home ASAP! Hopefully America voted for Eric to evict her, I don't want anything to mess up the Dani, ED, Eric, Jess alliance.

I can't wait to see how they portray Jen's flip out on the show.

No, Jen has not gotten her clothes back. And the rest of the houseguests has even alienated her for breaking the rules of the game! How funny! She's just a joke, even if she wins the votes over Jameka, she might as well go home in her place. She is miserable!

My friend told me that Jen found an America Players card in the diary room after Eric left. I think BB is threading very gently around her because she can ruin the show for them.

Did Jen get a new shirt after Eric squirted mustard all over it?
