The August 4th morning feeds (before they locked us out for the live show feeds lockdown) didn’t bring much excitement – just tooth brushing and dread, mainly. We feedsters anticipate Day’s departure while the houseguests plod through their morning rituals seemingly without a care in the world. “Do, something, Day!” many of us might even shout at our screens to no avail. It’s like watching sheep to slaughter, but without the bloodshed or the innocence… but the sheep? We’ve got your sheep, bro.
James realizes his mistake
The most disappointing element of this dynamic hits the screen right out of the gate in the August 4th live TV show. James reveals his betrayal of Day and says he’s “forced to vote her out or ruffle feathers in the house,” which we find a tad bothersome. Effin’ ruffle, bro! You’re the bottom of that bro totem pole and you know it. Do what you want! But no. James goes “with the house” and thus we then see the producer’s version of the slip James made about Bridgette still being in the house the next week.
Da’vonne realizes she’s a goner
Next Day tells Natalie and James she needs them to have her back. He says he would but she doesn’t completely believe him and tells him it hurts her feelings. James may screw up his jury with this betrayal because Da’vonne will be the first member of the jury. He then tells Natalie it would be a personal move to save Day and a better game move to vote her out. Natalie just supports him. So, when the live voting is about to begin Day gives her speech and says, “I hope there was no lies and deception this week!” James laughs hardest of all. Thus, hearts fell across the nation. We knew it was happening… for reals.
#SadMeech
Hearts fell in the house too because Michelle and Zakiyah didn’t see it coming that their beloved Day would be evicted. It was a total blindside to them. With James voting to evict Da’vonne and only Michelle and Zakiyah voting to keep her, she’s officially out on August 4th. Day’s hugs are only for Zakiyah but she does kiss James goodbye at the last minute. She stage-whispers to Victor that the house wants to take him out with the (imminent) double eviction. The fact that Da’vonne didn’t hug Michelle is the source for a later #BigMeech waterfall of emotion on the feeds. Loyal to Day till the end, Meech is heartbroken. Paul consoles her and claims it was a blindside to him too. The guy’s social game on ON POINT, bro. Nicole tries a similar social move with Meech but it just turns into a slam Day session.
Day sits with Julie
Sitting with Julie, Da’vonne says she knew and sensed it. We’re sad that Day didn’t feel she could do anything about it. You could’ve put those IDGAF pants on, Day! We’re pretty sure Tiffany left a pair in the London room. Funny thing is, the only person in the house willing to wear that brand of pants right now is sweet little innocent Bridgette. She hates the whole bunch with unparalleled venom – they just don’t know it yet. Julie opens Day’s envelope but it’s another One Way Ticket. Zakiyah’s goodbye message makes Day cry with her sweet words. Maybe this sweet and understanding side is what’s holding these women back from fighting for their spots in the house. You gotta ice over that sh**, girl! Fight! fight! fight! But, alas Day’s not a fighter in this game today. She’s the BEST talker and emoter on BB18 by far. Unfortunately there’s no transitive property for these qualities that make you great at the game of Big Brother. Sure, they make you fun to watch and people pull for you… but that’s it, sugar.
Harsh Hashtags HOH
So, gulp. Maybe this really is for the best. Perhaps Bridgette can shake this house off it’s Pee Pee pedestal. Somebody needs to. This brings us to the HOH competition of August 4th and it’s a doozy. Lucky for us, they let the feedsters watch it play out after the TV show ends. Called “Harsh Hashtags,” the challenge has houseguests hang on ropes attached to a spinning disc where they stand (or squat). They also hit a big block of #USUCK every time they circle around to it. As the August 4th episode ends Julie introduces Internet trolls into the hashtag challenge. They’re extras in troll costumes with hashtag emblazoned paddles to smack the swinging houseguests.
Natalie (officially playing out the princess archetype to the max) squeaks about how she’s “so scared” of these trolls even as she’s solid and strong on her spinning disc. In fact, she pleads, whines, and begs through the entire competition. In the end It’s a final two showdown between Natalie and Victor. She begs him to drop for forty five minutes but he makes a solid point saying that she can’t really be angry at him for wanting to save himself. He’s right, of course. And eventually he takes the win. The trolls come for weeping Natalie but Victor protects her from them and isn’t going to put her on the eviction block either. That guy’s game is pretty stellar at this point too… if only he’d think for himself more in the nominating process.
He puts the Victor in VICTORY
