Big Brother And Elissa Derangement Syndrome

No one asked but, I'm going to tell anyway. Local ginger, liar, homo-face, over-emotional, fucktard- Andy- won the $500,000 in the Big Brother contest on CBS.  He beat out two other assholes in the final voting on the very popular show that you don't watch but, millions of others do.

Judging by the Facebook page, very few of those millions of fans are pleased with this. It was the natural course of things because- compared to the other two idiots- he had played the game the best. It is a game where dishonesty is ultimately rewarded with half a million dollars. No one wins by being honest. Jesus Christ would not stand a chance. A Congressman would. Andy was a better liar than Gina Marie or Spencer (the other final three) and, of course, better than all the other house guests before him. The thing is, I think Andy is so good at lying he is probably still lying.

The backlash to this season is the real story. The viewing audience knows more about the contestants and what goes on in the game than the players do. At a certain point, people who get voted out go to a jury house where they are still sequestered from society but, without cameras all over the place. They judge the players based on their own experience with the final two and any gossip that newly evicted players might bring in. They don't know what we know. They may be well aware, for example, that Andy is a duplicitous fuckface, but, they gotta admit he fooled them and judge him on that. THAT is the game. You have to trust people that you know are lying to you. Like marriage. Or Topix.

But, I digress. If I were playing the game and got out- played by Andy, I'd have to respect that over Gina Marie's lame game. I wouldn't like it but, that's the way that cookie crumbles.

Fans are disappointed because the jury has no idea what assholes these people are. I mean, they think they know but, they don't know.  I mentioned the other day that, even after she was voted out, the remaining assholes in the house saw fit to totally trash Elissa. There was absolutely nothing to be gained by this yet they went on for days, practically to the last minute. I had to wonder if the criteria for winning had been changed to: "How severely did you hate Elissa?"  None of these assholes lied about that on camera!

But, I bet they would in post-game interviews. I'm gonna guess that aside from outright denial, they'll be a lot of "well, er, uh, that's the game..." explanations of why they trashed Elissa. When show hostess, Julie Chen, called out Aaryn for her racist remarks, Aaryn defended it as the way people talk in Texas, where she's from. Maybe Andy will shrug off his hatred for Elissa as something peculiar to his hometown of Aurora, Illinois. Town motto: "Elissa Is Such A BITCH!!!!EWWWWWW!!!!! I HATE HER!!!!!!!!"

By all accounts, BB15 was the worst cast ever. People say they are done watching but, everyone who says that will have a change of heart, come next summer when a new cast of liars debuts. That's human nature too. I doubt the producers were thrilled to have a gay, Howdy Doody look alike, a room temperature IQ refugee from The Jersey Shore and a hulking nose-picker in the final three. I'm guessing the show isn't fixed after all. They could have done A LOT better but, I doubt they could have done worse.

The fans wanted closure. Elissa's husband and her brothers should get five minutes alone with Andy and his cohorts. We should get to watch. But, he's Canadian and civilized and I'm not sure if she's got brothers so,  that's not gonna happen. I would have liked to see Julie perhaps show some clips addressing the Elissa comments as well as the racism. Viewers knew that Aaryn and Gina Marie lost their jobs because of racist comments but, because they were sequestered, those two didn't know.  Nose-picker, Spencer, was investigated by his local police department for pedophile-like comments he made. I'm 99.9% certain he was joking but, he said this ignorant shit on TV. These people knew full well that everything they said/did was recorded.  Joking about molesting children is not "gameplay". And, talking about your weed dealer back home on TV is just stupid, as well.

We'll see what happens when these people find out what the fans already know. Odd how you can live in close quarters with people for several weeks and not really know them. I've learned from Topix though, that it's easy to despise scumbags without seeing them on TV so, it all evens out.

Andy must be an asshole in real life too. That's a shame. People like to put a dollar value on being an asshole and that's a shame as well. Half a million dollars isn't much by soul-selling standards. Remember: the show is all about lying and deception. He threw in his being an asshole for free. That didn't win him the game. It just showed him as an asshole in front of a live, nationwide audience. Future house guests probably won't emulate that aspect of his game. In fact, wouldn't it be kinda silly if the final three next season spent their last week in the house talking about how awful Elissa was last year? It would make just as much sense.

BTW, Elissa won $25,000 as America's Favorite Player despite the smear campaign by America's Least Favorite Asshole and his asshole friends. That's gotta be a gut punch for those three as keeping that from happening seemed to be their reason to live.
