BB8: Jen-uinely Annoying

Tonight is the first eviction on Big Brother 8... can't say any personal favorites have emerged quite yet, but there are few gals I wouldn't mind meeting the Chenbot sooner rather than later.

Disclosure on my viewing... just the couple of episodes that have aired thus far on CBS and some of the ShoToo's nightly 3-hour block of the live feed.  I have yet to sit through the entire 3 hours... sometimes I think I've been watching for an hour an hour and it ends up being just 20 minutes!  Great having it on TiVo, skipping through the silence or too much rambling (Joe [cough, cough]).  The Showtime addition has been nice... but it's more than enough hamster time for me, so I am not even considering getting the live Internet feed.

Ok, onto my annoying trio!

#1 - Amber

One of our first nominees for eviction... but, going on absolutely no inside information (the house seemed split the last I saw/hear), I am guessing Carol will go home tonight.  Primarily there are two things that annoy me about Amber. 

First, she was upset (see above) about being nominated by Kail, my "first impression" annoying houseguest.  Amber felt that for the sole reason of popping out a baby, she should have been given a free pass from the only other Mom in the house... after all, Amber is doing this for her family... which leads me to two of my reality tv pet peeves..  a) reality tv is not a charity and b) don't cry about your kid(s) when you voluntarily left them behind for months to appear on a reality show.

Next, was last episode's talking aloud monologue to God asking for the strength to continue on... and, oh not to get evicted.   Amber seems to believe God is on her side and will do the right thing and keep her in the house... or something like that, I was too busy retrieving my jaw off the floor when people seem to believe they have the undivided attention of the Almighty.  I would also like to put a word in... now, only after securing Amber's place in the Big Brother house for another week, that God gives just a little attention to the genocide in Darfur.  Thanks in advance!

# 2 - Jessica

Still have some lingering annoyance that Jessica is in the house only because of a high-school spat with Carol over a $5 unpaid loan ... and that has only been exacerbated with Jess not budging a centimeter on that issue.  They may just not be showing it (or I'm missing it), but Carol seems to have let it go... granted she still wants Jessica to go... but who can blame her for that!   I thought former-BB houseguest Holly had an annoying voice, but Jessica is giving even her a run for the money.   The pitch is pretty ear-splitting... but do people really talk like this intonation-wise... or is just a unfortunate consequence of living in a post-Paris Hilton world!?!

If that's not enough for you, her BB bio lists "jump on trampoline" as one of her favorite outdoor activities... oy!

#3 - Jen

If you are watching BB8, you know it is sadistic and with great glee that I post the above picture.  In just the second episode of the season, Jen had a classic reality show meltdown (or else she's just smart and knows what will give her screen time)... all over her official BB picture in the house... apparently she never takes a bad picture... well, except this one time.  Here is what the beauty normally looks like and her attempts to deal with the picture:

If delusions of gorgeousness isn't enough... there's her custom-made t-shirt collection (Jenth Degree, I Am A Jenius) that provided the inspiration for the title of this post... however, that's when she is wearing clothes!   One thing that you probably won't see in its entirety on CBS (but on ShoToo and the live feeds) is Jen's ass... she wears the tiniest of bikinis, particularly the bottoms.  She bends over and I pretty much know what it's like to be an OBGYN for a split second.

Oh, thanks to YouTube I guess I should just go ahead and post the Jen meltdown... though hat tip to DeAnn/TV Goddess via OregonLive.com for being the place I saw it first.

So my fellow BB fans... anyone else you lovin' to hate... or hatin' to love?!

What, no comment about Nick's "Top 5 Guys I'd Do List"? Is this guy playing gay-for-pay or what? He let Creepy-Joe rub sunscreen or tanning oil on his back for what, 10 minutes? He's either gay, bi or totally playing him. And frankly, Dustin is a way better choice - not to mention, he dosen't walk around telling complete strangers that he had an STD! Actually, they're BOTH drama queens and poster boys for flameing fruit. You're right, no stereotype shattering this season either. Not that there ever has been.
And somebody, anybody, please tell Jessca to shut the f*ck up! She's the anti-viagra!

I usually steer clear of "Big Brother," but once again I am sucked back in. (The hot shirtless guys don't hurt, of course.) I didn't watch this season from the start, but I caught part of last night's (Sunday) episode. Jen's constant jen-uflections, agh. Good for Dick for taking her down a peg.

I have to say that I did not have any idea how delightful this season would be for me. I am loving laughing at/hating Jen and almost don't want her to go...
