Wednesday 8/05/2015: Big Brother 17 Live Feed Spoilers and Updates!!!

Vanessa continues to bemuse and confound the house and feed watchers as she whirls through the house scheming. Last night saw a big meeting with James, Jackie, Meg, Austin, Liz, Becky, Julia, and Vanessa discussing what they should do next. Vanessa said that she wanted to keep Shelli since she'd promised her she would. Pretty much everyone else said they should keep Clay since he's less of a threat to win anything. Austin and the twins learned that Shelli was doing all of the talking when telling James and Jackie about them, so they're back on board voting out Shelli. (At least for now. I think.)

 

Vanessa assured everyone that she would have no problem putting up Shelli next week if she won HOH which had the rest wondering why she'd do that, but not vote her out this week. Vanessa eventually agreed to vote out Shelli and tell her that it was a house decision and she just went along with it.

 

The group decided that whichever member of Clay/Shelli survived this week (they're assuming it will be Clay) would be the target next week and they'd put up John next to him since John is close to Clay. They'd keep Steve as the backdoor candidate if one of those two won POV. 

 

I'm pretty sure Vanessa isn't done campaigning to save Shelli just yet, but we'll have to see how successful she is. Vanessa could likely rally votes from herself and Steve without trouble. Becky has expressed reservations about keeping Shelli, so her and John are not likely to vote to evict Clay. (Becky may have other reasons for wanting to keep Clay in the house.) If Vanessa can't wrangle Austin and the twins back into voting to keep Shelli, she'll have to finally abandon Shelli, and to some extent, her beloved Sixth Sense alliance.

 

Shelli and Clay were busy making out in the backyard while all of the drama upstairs went down and Shelli still believes she's safe and Clay thinks he's safe, but only one of them will be right. If things stay the way they are now, I'm guessing Shelli will not be a happy little camper. She's likely to go on a rampage and destroy Vanessa's game. (Most of the house now knows what Vanessa is doing and are targeting her in the very near future anyway.)

 

Sometime today Clay will sit down with Shelli and they'll discuss the immediate future. I have a vision of the discussion going something like this:

 

"So, um, Shelli, dearest. Mumble, mumble, mumble, back, mumble mumble, mumble, sassafras, mumble, asparagus."

 

"Clay, Clay, clay, you don't have to be nervous talking to me. You know I love you and will do anything for you. What is it you want?"

 

"Well, you know, it's just that one of us is leaving soon and you've got something of mine that might come in handy for me."

 

"This shirt I've been sleeping in?" asked Shelli. 

 

"No, no," mumbled Clay. "You can keep the shirt. No, it's something else. Something I may need."

 

"What is it?" asked Shelli.

 

"Well, I don't want to make you mad."


"You won't make me mad. What exactly is it you want back?"

 

"I might, just might need my testicles back."

 

"Whatever for?" asked Shelli.

 

"Well, you never know," mumbled Clay. "They could come in handy." 

 

"For what? They just dangle there and get you in all kinds of trouble. It's much easier for you to let me keep them safe."

 

"Still, I'd like them back. I don't have much game going for me and you could lose them or something."

 

"Sweetie, don't you worry about that. I've got  the testicles of every man I've ever been with and I've never lost a pair yet. Trust me, they're very safe with me."

 

"But if I stay in the game they could come in handy. I may be forced to flirt with Meg or Becky to stay alive and I can't do that as well without my testicles."

 

"Well, if it puts your mind to ease, you don't have to worry about that. You see, I'm staying and you're going back out onto the streets of LA."

 

"What?" 

 

"Vanessa's been working the house for me and I'm staying, so you don't have to worry about me losing them. They'll be safe here in the house with me until finale night."

 

"But if I'm out of the house in LA going to clubs and whatnot, I'll really need my testicles."

 

"All the more reason for me to keep them here until we're together again. There are some very beautiful, but evil young women in those clubs in LA. Your testicles could get you into all kinds of trouble. No. It's settled. Your testicles stay with me where they're safe until we're together again. Now, is there anything else I can do for you?"

 

"No, no. mumble mumble. I guess not."

 

"That's a dear boy. Now lie down next to Mama and let's cuddle for the time we have left together."

I might be pushing the envelope a bit on this post, but it's been over a month since I last got banned, so what the heck.

Touche, Gardenman.  One of your funniest and most clever posts ever, and that's saying a lot.

I forgot to mention we have a show tonight. On tonight's show we'll see the aftermath of the nominations (basically Shelli and Clay bemoaning how evil James is.) Then they'll get around to picking the POV players, we'll see the POV comp. We'll see the "prizes" awarded (Jackie in her knight unitard and suit of armor with Vanessa polishing away and Shelli out whacking her targets in teh yard 24000 times) and then finally the POV ceremony. It should be a pretty good show tonight.

Reposting this over because I posted it on Tuesday's thread, today:

 

DogLvr, one of my specialists has taken the month of August off and my mother's primary took the summer off.  As long as there is adequate coverage for his patients I see no problem in what John did.  If I was his patient (and I'd love to be) I'd be delighted.

 

Susie2, I am still laughing with a hand over my mouth so I don't wake mom (I have a loud laugh) at the phrase "half gophers."  Never thought I'd see that and can't unsee it now that I have.  Hahahahahahahahaaha.  Half gophers.  That's funny.  But not for the gophers.

Thank you gardenman!

 

OMG, that's so funny, it made my day!  I'm so glad I got to read it early, in case you get banned, and goes away. Smiley LOL  But, honestly, you didn't say anything that should get you banned.

 

I love James, Meg and Jackie, but they are so frustrating!  They should be cramming for the mental comps ahead.  Vanessa was coaching Austin and the twins last night while James, Meg and Jackie were schmoozing in the HOH.  Their odds are not good to win, but they could increase them if they put in some study time. Come on guys!

 

I can't wait till tomorrow night to see who stays and who goes.  I'm confused, and I think everyone in the house is confused too.  No one seems to know who it's going to be.  They keep changing their minds.

 

I was convinced that it was going to be Clay going, but as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I'll keep hoping that Shelli leaves instead.

I'm not sure how many mental comps there will be this year since Julia and Liz were only in the house half of the time. That's a pretty severe handicap for them. I'd focus exclusively on stuff that's happened after they both joined the game if I was in the house.

 

The Shelli and Clay relationship made today's post too easy. That was "low hanging fruit" (in more ways than one) so I picked it. It does seem to fit their relationship though.

That was their first makeout session and I could have done without the slurping, made worse of course by the proximity of the mikes. Ugh!
