What is with all the crying on the show after Kiki was evicted?

Roddy crying after he treated her like dirt.
Dani crying after ochestrating her ouster.
Jason crying because he has to nominate people after he worked hard to win HOH.


Totally illogical and irritating...

I don't mind that they all had a pity party. The point is, why did Arnold and Co show all that Kiki crap instead of the hours of great strategy footage they must have had, especially DR stuff the Live Feed watchers would have not seen.

Really dumb. And the food challenges are starting to annoy the hell out of me. Does anyone care about that stuff?

I think the crying was the result of weeks of pent up pressure and emotion being released. You have to remember that the hgs came off of a couple weeks of OVERWHELMING stress and highly charged strategizing. Amy came back into the house and plans to ouster Roddy had the house flip flopping and running scared.

The last food challenge I watched on the feeds, Kmin and the props were malfunctioning during the contest. They had to stop the contest no less than two times to fix broken cables on the pully and readjust the catapult mechanism.

I agree with Wcv... I think there was a lot of stress in the house that past week. And the HGs really did (seem to) like Chiara. This happens every year -- when there are fewer HGs in the house, they seem to become closer and the evictions seem to be a lot more emotional. I think we will see a lot of tears from now on after evictions (except, possibly, for Gerry; and I hope I'm wrong on that account).

And I agree about the food challenges. Yawn... And the mystery food this week? I'm not sure about any of the rest of you, but I'm not a big donut eater (I eat 'em about twice a year). In fact, I try not to eat any heavy carbs like scones or muffins or bagels at all at b'fast. So winning a week's worth of breakfast "goodies" from Dunkin Donuts would not be a treat for me. Or, apparently, for some of the HGs.

1/2 the food is all they need anyway. They are getting breakfast foods. They end up throwing 1/2 of their allowance away, or letting it go bad. Make them ration food, water, toilet paper just like they did in the first bb.

All that bawling is just what Amy said it was "an act so the others won't think you are a jerk." They gotta play to the evicted and they know it.

Why can't they cry? I think they are in a stressful, emotional place. Even if I hated a person, and they had treated me awfully, I would cry if I had to nominate them.

I don't care that they cry. I think it's only human.

In any of the BB's has anyone ever nominated someone and come right out and said, "I nominated you because...well...frankly I just can't stand you!"

I don't understand this crying thing at all. I find it a highly overrated activity. Cry all you want - what you get are puffy eyes, a headache and a runny nose. And whatever it was you were just crying about is still there. I prefer to undertake activity to cure whatever the problem is that might cause me to cry - hey Jason, if you don't want to cry again, nominate Roddy after you veto Amy. Chiara, you might still be in the house and NOT CRYING if you'd simply attempted to behave like a rational human being toward Amy. Amy, if you don't want to nominate Roddy don't - no reason to cry then. Dani - if you'd just voted Roddy out in the first place, you'd have no need to cry and act like you miss your new best friend Chiara. Makes no sense and for the most part it's used as a manipulative tool within the context of the game.

Goddessatlaw...a good cry always makes me feel better. It releases a lot of pent-up tension and frustrations and makes it easier for me to focus on the things that need to be done.

I swear by it!! It's like therapy but a lot cheaper!
