This site is about the Big Brother 16 feeds and contains spoilers! It isn't necessarily thorough: it's what I catch and/or what interests me, and it isn't necessarily about who will win, who should win, who's cute or who's horrid. It's about watching hamsters: who's doing what and why. Thanks for encouraging my behavior.
Your pal, dingo

Cocoon phase (Sunday 8/10)

Christine, Caleb, Frankie were up early and trotted off to their football field trip.. having Frankie and Caleb off the feeds has been refreshing since there's nearly always a cam on one or the other, if not both, but I'm already dreading the retells when they return

Donny continued his mostly solo BB experience, roaming the habitat and enjoying the backyard while the others napped, but he went in for some industrial cocooning in the Have-not room for a bit

Victoria washed her pile of hair, which was an odd but fascinating procedure

The field trippers returned and their story was blocked from us (way to promote Thursday football), but of course the retells came out later.. they went via RV to a Dallas Cowboys practice session (possibly in Oxnard?) and had a big lunch, met the mascot, the owner, and some of the players and their wives.. I'm not 100% sure but I think Jessie Godderz was there as well - he's overdue to show up again.. Caleb talked mostly about all the food he ate, and Christine talked about what a diva Frankie had been

Renom talks started up in earnest, with Christine telling Victoria she'd be going up.. round robin rehashes also started up, with the end result Christine saying she'll put up Nicole instead, despite their pinkyswear not to do that to each other.. never mind that they're in jury now, which isn't the best time to blatantly break promises or to blindside, but so be it

Frankie who? (Saturday 8/9)

They got their peanut butter and jelly fish, and Christine named Donny and Zach to be the Have-nots, saying "they've done it least" - odd, Frankie's only done it once, but maybe she's got him on ignore too

He and they carried on the fame & followers loops, and speculation about the football prize led to football chat - this really isn't my season

Nicole, Derrick, Caleb played for veto along with Christine, Donny, Zach, and Victoria hosted.. it was OTEV, and Zach won.. this time OTEV took the form of a pissed-off penguin and the name cards were cocktail themed (ironic for this dry season), and they all said it was great fun

Zach was happy again, of course, and had another make-up chat with Frankie, then later told others they were still done.. tell-all convos continued here and there, including Zach telling all to Victoria, who ended up in tears after finding out Derrick had been up to things he hadn't told her about.. all that revved up as it made its he said/she sound rounds, culminating in a house meeting - Flashback 8/10 2.45am.. Derrick's so good at this game that it ended with Victoria offering to do his laundry

Won: Germany trip NOMINATED - HOLDS VETO To follow	Won: Nothing He was the nice guy they all liked, and it's always rough to lose that guy early. Slightly immature with no shame, he was extremely good-natured and responsible for most of the just-for-fun activities and spontaneous silliness. He was cute with Nicole and a perfect combo of Jackass and hamster. He brought a lightness to the feeds that was missed when he left.
Won: Nothing She didn't bring the holy wars I feared but she did speak in tongues. She cried a lot but she also laughed a lot, and she did great Diaries. She'll be remembered for her bow ties, her choir robe/portable changing room, and most of all her judgemental, IDGAF, side-eye, and the hell you say expressions.	Won: Nothing A stunningly gorgeous model, she lasted longer than the hamster in that slot usually does, but she exited on another unanimous vote, and before jury. She wanted to play a clean game and that usually doesn't work out so well on this show. She was a good sport about pranks, including the antiquing shown here, but she'll mostly be remembered as the object of Caleb's dreams, and I do mean dreams.
Won: 2400 goals She was the rawest recruit we've had in awhile and she didn't do much homework, which worked against her in a big way. She seemed to have pretty good game instincts and may have done some real damage if she'd been better prepared. She'll be remembered for her high bun as well as the few times her hair escaped it and landed her in Deathrace 2014 hall of fame, and for sticking with and completing that brutal soccer task when she didn't have to.	Won: Nothing He has a daughter. PS He easily wins the Best Evictee Award with this.
Won: Nothing I kept hoping for the spitfire she plays on Twitter & Instagram to show up but it didn't until the veto meeting blowup. She was well on her way to being a perma-pawn but she stressed about not being able to win comps, and then Devin happened and out she went. She had a lot of entertainment potential and while we were robbed of most of it by her early exit, we'll always have CALTORU.	TEAM AMERICA FAIL Won: Nothing She blew up her game prematurely and spectacularly, and then her alter ego Alex and his 'big ass balls' sealed the deal. Supposedly she beat someone with 500k Twitter followers (plus 15 million backup) in a public vote, but that went splat just like BB12's saboteur Annie. Joey was lively and personable, a worthy member of the first out club, and she easily leads the pack of hamsters with unnatural hair colors.

LINES OF THE DAY

Sunday
Donny: I sure do miss a lot when I'm asleep, thank god.. I miss half the season asleep

Donny: Makes you wonder about the real mind, how can we give 'em the game if we don't know who's making the decisions? Someone's doing a good job

Christine: I walked out there and they said 'Nicole, you can take your blindfold off now'

Christine about Frankie: He just thinks he's a celebrity, so he literally acted like one the whole entire day.. nothing was ever good enough.. I never met a diva like that in my life

Donny: I'm not good with all the he said, she said stuff

Saturday
Zach to Frankie: You're playing for charity, I'm voting for you over anyone else! If I was gay I'd be on my knees sucking your dick right now

Nicole: You can't be pouring your guts out to Derrick anymore
Victoria: I'm done

Cody: I did not tell Christine everything you said
Nicole: She knew everything

Zach: Any idea what Christine's gonna do?
