Ending and Pretending

Jason launches into a defense of Danielle, and because Marcellas cannot stand to have anyone in the room look at anyone other than him for one moment, he makes a great show of standing up from his seat next to Jason and making Amy slide over so he doesn't have to sit beside Jason. "It was very difficult for me to sit next to the Christian virgin and have him sort of glorify meanness," Marcellas says in the PMR. Putting aside the incredible hypocrisy Marcellas displays here -- given that he was so cruel in the way he talked about Gerry and others -- I think it's especially comedically stupid that he somehow implies that virgins should be nicer than other people. Where does he get his ridiculous notions, anyway? Target, I suppose. Doesn't everyone shop at Target now? When Marcellas is finished glorifying...well, himself, Jason returns to the theme that, in reality, Danielle loves everyone and was just playing the game. He tells them that he knows Danielle better than they all do, so they should take his word for it. Fat chance, Li'l Soul Patch. Jason accuses them of "faulting people for playing the game" if they don't vote for her. Not that it was really "game" for her to go in the diary room and talk about how Amy thought she was sexy and really wasn't. That's just mean talk, which is fine. And yes, we all do it. But if you want somebody to vote for you to take home money, you don't do it. Danielle's DR sessions were poor game play. Why is that hard for Jason to understand? "I want you to consider giving this game to the person that has played the game the best."

Okay, this is all I'm going to say about this. The only things there are in this game are (1) staying in the house; and (2) getting people to vote for you at the end. Those are the only two things you have to do. They are both legitimately part of the game. There is no reason in hell why anyone should vote for you in the second part because of how well you played the first part. Simply put, why should you hand half a million bucks to an ass? This isn't a game of skill in any sense other than making other people make decisions the way you want them to. There isn't anything to it -- no racing, no challenges, no games; not really. The only way Danielle "played the best" was in convincing people to do what she wanted and fooling them into not thwarting her. But she did a horrible job of securing votes at the end, which is equally part of the game. So I have had about all I can take of this "Danielle deserved to win" argument. There's no such thing as deserving to win in this game, except by making people want to vote for you. "I hate you" is a perfectly valid basis on which to vote, in my opinion. I certainly wouldn't have voted for Danielle to win a penny, because she was cocky and arrogant and full of herself. And I love seeing people like that not get what they want.
