Day 9: Eviction Day

Alexandra made a slightly better impression yesterday. When Rex touched her lighter, she used the words ‘fuck’ and ‘violated’ so many times, my dad asked if she knew any other words. But she kept her voice down to fifty decibels, and she was making a valid point. Rex has no right to touch her lighter just because they’re living together. If me and my parents smoked, I would never touch their lighter without asking. It must be worse in the house when you have so little – no privacy, no real friends, no time on your own. The lighter must seems like one of the few things that is Alexandra’s alone.

So Rex made a big mistake there – if it wasn’t for that, I’d be liking him quite a lot right now. He was great in the task – he encouraged the people who were struggling; did his best to help Dennis and Rachel with their impossible task. Rex is now many people’s favourite to win – but, for me, deliberately touching the lighter of someone who has asked you not to do so is not the behaviour of a winner. It makes her feel violated, Rex, for f***’s sake – yes, f***ing violated. Just remember she told you that.

The task was awful. Dennis and Rachel had to do a ‘steady hand’ task – manoeuvring a wand from one end of the track to the other without touching the track. Every time they did, the other housemates were given an electric shock. Kathreya and Rebecca were crying with pain, but it was Alexandra and Sylvia who were the first to remove their suits, thereby earning two fails. But wait a minute, is Big Brother allowed to do that? If Big Brother asked Dennis and Rachel to slap their housemates every time they made a mistake, it might have been a lot less painful. But that would have been illegal. How it possibly be considered acceptable for Big Brother force two of his housemates to torture the others?

I don’t blame the people who removed their suits one bit – but Sylvia claimed that one of her reasons for doing so was because “I am Sylvia.” Well, I have only one thing to say to that. Who is Sylvia? What is she? Where did you find her? (Has anyone else ever quoted Shakespeare and Nikki Grahame in the same paragraph?)

Dennis was in tears after failing the task. The two people who comforted him most were the supposed ‘evil bitch’ Alexandra and ‘selfish bitch’ Stephanie. Dennis probably was milking it at least a little bit, but Stephanie was really kind to him. Is there any way we can save her from going tonight and boot that twat Mario out instead?

Not only has Mario proved to be a wanker, Lisa annoyed me yesterday too when she claimed Stephanie needs to show more respect for her elders. “It’s common sense. We’ve been here longer than she has.” True, Lisa, but just because Stephanie has only been alive for nineteen years, it doesn’t mean you can’t learn from her, and it certainly doesn’t mean you don’t have to show her respect. Also, most of the voters are going to be closer to Stephanie’s age than Lisa’s. So, is Lisa expecting us to show respect to our elders as well by not voting her and Mario out?

Come on, voters. The number you need to dial is here.

Get Mario out!
