Sunday’s episode of Big Brother was fairly tame, especially now that all warring factions of the house have been excised. With just five people left, the remaining house guests seemed intent on only one goal: ousting Jerry. Unfortunately for them, he won Head of Household after physics, karma, and cosmic justice conspired to screw Dan over in a ball-rolling quiz game. I was really hoping that Jerry would be going home this week, but alas, it won’t be happening. That’s okay though. His victory will keep things interesting as we head into the final chapter of this great season.
That’s not to say there weren’t plenty of interesting things on Sunday’s show. With strategy talk at a low, the producers gave us several “character” segments  those lighthearted sequences that hone in on bizarre antics, such as Keesha’s hyena laugh or Jerry’s propensity for telling long, boring, old-man stories. I personally was happy to have a fresh dose of new Renny-isms, most obviously with her inability to grasp the finer subtleties of time zone concepts. However, I also loved how earlier in the episode she complained about The Colonel, saying that she had nothing in “COMMON” with him (but of course the “common” was screamed in her dying-crow voice that we adore ever so much). Good times had by all.
To the photocap!
“Come awn. I don’t want to sit and talk to this Diet Coke bottle. We have nothing in COMMON!!!”
“Look, all I’m saying is that you all promised me there’d be square dancing, and now I’m all dressed up and there’s nothing. NOTHING.”
“Come awn, DAN. You think I don’t know my own time zone? The insinuation is INAPPROPRIATE!!!”
“I’m so going to YELL MY THOUGHTS ON THIS IN THE DIARY ROOM.”
“Come awn, I’m tired from waking up at 7 AM. That’s like 2 AM in New Orleans.”
“Are you doubting my knowledge of time zones? YOU BETTA NAWT!!!”
“Houseguests, we will now recreate a music video from 1994.”
“I’m gonna totally womanize Keesha’s top hat.”
“I fuckin’ hate you all you fuckers. I hope you all go fuck yourself in your fuckin’ stupid fuckin’ competition.”
“MARY! ST. JOSEPH!!! My ball’s locked in position. It’s LOCKED!!”
“Yech. This ball reminds me of Hillary Clinton.”
“When will Jerry shut up? I could have womanized six or seven pillows by now.”
“And so that’s when the asp turned to the tiger and said ‘a penny will only get you a lashing,’ which reminds me, have I told you the story about the toad and the spider? It’s actually pretty good. It starts with a toad that’s lost in a forest when suddenly a boulder rolls down from a ledge…”
“Jerry’s stories are hilarious. They just make me want to STAB ALL OF YOU IN THE EYEBALL!”
“It’s physically impossible for me to put my arms down in the Diary Room. I’m like the reverse John McCain. HOoonnnk!!!”
“I’ve heard of this concept of sitting up straight, but I’m still not sure I understand it. Oh well. I’m just gonna flop down on this table like I do ALL THE TIME.”
“I trust you, Memphis, even though you do rape everything in sight.”
“A rapist? Well, as long as he doesn’t call me a bartender…”
“Our alliance kind of reminds of this one story: the pebble and the raccoon. It’s actually pretty good. Basically, a raccoon is walking through the forest when suddenly a pine cone falls on its head. Well, you don’t need me to tell you how the raccoon felt about that. But I’ll tell you anyway…”
“I’ve decided to nominate you, HOOoonk!!, and you, BEEP BEEP!”
B-side,
I know it’s a lot to ask, but do you think after this season is over we can get an updated Jerry/Renny montage? Preferable one that includes, “it’s inappropriate!” and Jerry sounding like a dying cat trying to imitate Keesha’s laugh? Some visuals of Jerry falling into the pool repeatedly would also be AWESOME.
Pretty please?
I almost peed in my pants when Renny was arguing with Dan & Memphis. She was hell bent on proving she knew her time zones. Props to the guys for maintaining their laughter at a slight chuckle; I would have been guffawing in her face…
you and Dan have the same eyebrows B.

LOL I’m with you Leenie! I LOVED the Jerry & Renny Montage! and there have been some great Jerry/Renny noises since the last one!
One in particular that doesn’t get any attention; when Jerry shouted: “WORMS!”
and definatly a few “Screw you people!” or “Judas!”
You’re right. What is up with Dan yelling in the Diary Room? Have you also noticed that Renny rarely makes eye contact with the camera in the Diary Room?
Speaking of Jerry never lowering his arms in the diary room. May we get a shirt with sleeves still attached, like ever? I really don’t need to see his pits.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
