    I think it's because he's intelligent and educated. They keep calling him smug and I suppose he is a little, but not to the point of being patronising. I really think they are so insecure and are imagining him looking down on them. I think he does a little but come on, the level of conversation is set very low, even he said it about all they talk about is fake tan. They are threatened by him because he's an actual mature grown up and not a fake ass liar-y bitch. He doesn't have an alter ego like Lateysha which reminds me of the JC/Jemma Collins persona - grand until she throws a strop. Lateysha shouts everyone down, never lets anyone finish a sentence (yea I know but...) and takes everything as a personal insult.

    Andy has really grown on me.

    I agree.
    I say if most of us were in that house, we would be friends with Andy because I think the people here are intelligent and would want intelligent conversation.
    The problem for Andy, Lateysha is not very mature. No one likes personal criticism, but one is better off listening and learning from it rather than doing a Lateysha or a Sam who you can't say boo to.
    It is fine to talk behind the backs of people until the person you are talking about finds out.
    btw love how Andy took up Sam's point about everyone is doing it and then turned the comment back on Sam.

    Most sane people can/would take a critique of them on board and see it as a good thing.
    The click see it as an attack.
    That's the IQ of the click showing through.

    I thought Charlie was very annoying tonight. She is extremely passive aggressive and selfish. She only cares about herself. You'd swear she was the first women to be dumped and still have feelings for her ex.

    I loved how Andy switched Sams question on him. Honestly with Latesha, Ryan and Sam if they had a brain cell between them they'd be dangerous.

    I hope the irony of that last part is not lost on you. In the big brother 2016 thread.

    So how are you enjoying BB so far? Who is your favourite? Who do you dislike the most?
    What do you think about the clicks? Do you have anything to add to this thread? I like to know, what is the weather like up on you're high horse

    That was what I was thinking, and then I was thinking it's one poster with 2 accounts...

    Ha was no biggie or harsh critique. Seems you took it like a personal attack. I just thought it was amusing.

    Again, answer my question... Seeing as you quoted my question, any chance of you answering it?

    What I'm taking from you're replys is you don't have a clue. And are just here to stir the.. Well we all know.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 357 ✭✭makingmecrazy


    I really didn't enjoy that episode. I wonder is cabin fever REALLY settling in over them at this point causing them to go even more nuts than usual?
    Jason is getting on my nerves, he is a bit of a head melter.
    I think Charlie has his cards marked, he isnt being himself in the house.
    Sam is awful, just awful. All that nastiness in person isnt good, I wonder how the hell people like him form relationships of any kind(work/friends/love)in the real world?

    Am I missing something with Sam? Is he that nasty? Extremely stupid, yes. Nasty?

    Also, Jason? Isn't he just a very nice guy who wants to just get on with things in the house? He hasn't caused offence to anyone. How do any of us here know if he is "being himself" if we didn't know him prior to the show?

    Just like we know anything about any of them out side of the house. But we do know what they are like inside..

    Your request for an answer was rather strange. Bordering on demanding. I'm not bound to answer anything really but I'll divulge. The Weather is fine.

    You seem to have rightfully ignored your own words daming the " clique " mentality. Then go on to say we all know.. Whos we? Am I speaking to a clique right now?

    It really was not that big a deal. you are being over dramatic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,340 ✭✭✭deco nate


    What I'd like is people just talking about the show, instead of having a go against posters and saying nothing about the show because they never watch it. Why is it allowed?
    Taking the fun out of posting, letting them win.
    It's annoying that they are being let to get away with it.


    I know if I go off topic I'd be banned, yet...

    having a go. I made a joke. not even to you. You could of easily ignored.You attacked me for making the joke Then speak of taking the fun out of posting?

    False drama.

    So again, I'll ask you.. What do you think of the people in the house? You spout on about bs yet nothing but abuse about posters. Not one word about the contestants. You seemed more about having a go about us. So I'll ask you one last time...... What about the 2 sides of the house? How do you feel about it. What side are you on?
    Do you even know who is in the house?
    Seems to me to know f all.
    Ot... I'm liking Laura and Evelyn more ad it goes on

    I hope the irony of that last part is not lost on you. In the big brother 2016 thread.

    It takes an intelligence to read people, to read body language, to read situations, to see signs.
    I watch Big brother for this, it is a program for reading people and seeing how your judgement of people is right or wrong.
    How people react to situations.
    The rules of this forum and site forbid me from giving my opinion of you, but in open nominations for eviction I nominate SterlingArcher as I don't think I could have an intelligent conversation with him, and I was commenting on who in the house that I believe we could have an intelligent conversation with, Andy worked for the BBC in Northern Ireland and would be well able to talk about Ireland, he also campaigned for the remain campaign in the Brexit referendum.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 637 ✭✭✭Cathy.C


    Can't believe you are all falling for Andy's gameplan.. he's a pompous snake :P

    The only reason that smug git wanted to confront people is so he could look like a saint and also further cement his allegiance with Jason at the same time. I can't stand him. When they were in the snug he brought up that he had heard Lateysha talking about Hughie but then in the bedroom he denied that and said he never said anything about her specifically. THAT is why she went screaming to the diary room. He has also talked about loads of housemates behind their backs himself. I hope Big Brother plays a game of 'Which Housemate Said X, Y or Z' with them soon and one of the quotes is of Andy bitching about a housemate.

    Charlie has to be one of the most emotionally manipulative / passive aggressive housemates ever. If she senses even the slightest chance to make herself look like a victim or a martyr, she will grab it with both hands and then walk off as if she has been the one wronged. You can't communicate with someone like that as they have a victim complex and resolution is never one of their priorities. I feel she has done some dark stuff in the past as Jason said he has seen her angry and nobody would want to see that. He looks petrified of her. Pet rabbit stew anyone?

    I despise Ryan more than ever now, he only runs his mouth when others do. That was one of the reasons I wanted Marco to stay as he sussed Ryan straight away. What Marco said was obnoxious alright but his anger at Ryan was spot on. He is a nasty little mouthpeice who I can' wait to see fall. Him and Sam make a good couple actually. Two fake flakes.

    Georgina is behaving like a 15 year old and I would say that is because she has always got away with it before with other boyfriends. Jackson is a doormat if he takes much more of it but then something tells me he is really more interested in the showmance angle than having any kind of genuine relationship with her. A proper cat fight between Georgina and Evelyn could be in the offing, so that's something to look forward to.

    Did anyone actually see Jayne in tonight's show? Maybe she escaped again.

    I'm actually enjoying this year more than I thought I would on launch night.

    I have a feeling we might see a double eviction soon and both housemates could be tossed into the 'other house' for some video viewing for a week. Hopefully one of them would be Georgina and then Jackson gets it on with Evelyn and the following week we seek Georgina thrown back in and well you know the rest... murder.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,677 ✭✭✭Eyepatch


    All I could think of is that unfortunate 7-month old child that has a mother (Latesha), that behaves like that when she's mad.

    It shows how much L is in it to win it and saw her chances being threatened. She's forfeited any kind of win after that performance.

    If she was attempting to pull a Nicki Grahame, she failed miserably.

    I'm the same with Sam, can't remember anything bad he's done?

    Really gone off lateysha lately. You know when a housemate resorts to screaming and ranting like that it means they aren't smart enough to get their point of view across in an argument. Fake tears in the diary room also. Clearly looking for sympathy. Wouldn't be surprised if she played the bully card in the coming days against Andy. I like Andy but he can come across as a bit sanctimonious with his monotone voice and deadpan facial expressions. Nice to see that trio of lateysha , Ryan and Sam dealt a few home truths though. Andy, Jayne and hughie the only ones I like although I don't think hughie will be smart enough to maintain his popularity and will slip up at some point down the line. Also, why didn't Sam just shave his beard for the task?Come on like. It's not as if he'd been growing it for months and would be sad to see it go. Man up and do the task. It's that kinda stuff that would really annoy me if I was a housemate and that was to cost you food or whatever.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,940 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    Been a bit behind the last couple of days, excessive drinking causes lack of clarity in the thought process...Who knew ? :P

    Time for a love, like, hate I think

    Love:
    none - which says a lot

    Like:
    Andy - I like the fact he stood up to the clique, he's put himself in the firing line which should be fun to watch. But he has a dark side, still think he's a sly fox and is playing the game.
    Evelyn - Slow starter but more involved post Marco, came across well in the last week.
    Hughie - most genuine in the house, unable to hide his emotions which makes him if anything honest. Also introduced us to the word trouble-riser which is great.
    Laura - hated her at the start, but since Marco left she's come across well. Probably because of her friendship with Evelyn.

    Meh:
    CLH - sometimes good sometimes bad, sometimes invisible.
    Jason - boring, would be lower but for sympathy of having to deal with 31.
    Jayne - I like how she stood up to Natalie, but she does moan a bit and the strops are very contrived.

    Dislike:
    Alex - boringest bore ever.
    31 - one dimensional bunny boiler.
    Emma - space cadet, find the whole energy BS annoying.
    Georgina - she's really just a b1tch.
    Jackson - irritating, his gangsta innit bruv act grates a lot.
    Lateysha - very inconsistent personality, over the last week she's turned into a bit of a weapon.
    Ryan - constantly seeking approval, no backbone whatsoever.

    Hate:
    Sam - everything about this guy is fake, massive game player.

    8 reported posts overnight, mainly about people trolling or attacking BB fans...

    This thread is for people who enjoy Big Brother and want to talk about it.

    If you don't like Big Brother, then MOVE ON. There are hundreds of other forums on this site.

    Any more crap will get people banned from the Reality TV forum until the end of the show.

    Cheers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,224 ✭✭✭Heat_Wave


    Who are people referring to when they say '31'?? It's very annoying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,224 ✭✭✭Heat_Wave


    On a side note I missed last nights show. Was it good? Can't wait to watch it this evening!

    They're referring to Charlie. It's because she says she is 31 but the crew here don't believe her, and think she's older.

    31 is Charlie, she claims that's her age, others here are dubious and reckon she's older!

    I didn't enjoy last nights show, Andy confronted the school yard bullies and got nowhere, Charlie and Jason going in roundabouts, Sam being selfish and not a team player during a task.

    Yesterday was repetitive I found.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,014 ✭✭✭Monife


    Love:
    Hughie – Although hope he can remain calm and not appear to be a trouble-riser J

    Like:
    Andy
    Jayne

    Meh:
    Alex – Although he definitely does need subtitles!

    Jackson – He was in the like/love box at the start but the neediness with resting bitch face is too annoying!

    Dislike:

    Evelyn - Completely fake and a massive attention seeker
    Laura - Annoying whiny voice, still dislike her previous actions
    Chelsea
    31 – hope she’s out next, cringey to watch
    Emma – complete looper and annoying
    Georgina – I liked her at the start, pity...
    Lateysha – Loved her at the start and up until a few days ago, she has too much of a bitchy Queen Bee mentality
    Ryan – Also quite liked him but he is a sheep and just follows the crowd, hope he realises soon it’s the wrong crowd

    Hate:
    Sam – The most hypocritical person in there. Also the biggest b*tch in there!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,456 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Can't wait for a clip of Sam talking/bitching behind someone's back to be shown to the house. Do it BB.

    I like Jane from the time, in the Other House, when she took Hughie aside and warned him, for his own good, to cool it as regards responding to Natalie's provocations. Shows she has a good heart. She didn't have to do that.
