    Shane and Courtney/Shane are sharing a bed.

    People we need to find a nickname for Courtney/Shane. I can't be dealing with two names the whole time

    Again, it’s not for you to be ‘reasonable’ about. You said it’s not about anyone just to cover yourself. It was clearly about my comment which I told you was a joke. I apologise to anyone who took offence, but it was genuinely meant with no malice at all.

    Jesus Gizmo relax :)
    No need for the drama "I'm leaving the thread" etc.
    No one is taking pot shots at you. Through out the thread there have been jokes about sexuality and gender, I have addressed the ones I thought were a tad shady. Most of them were grand and a laugh and wouldnt be offensive.
    No need for the indignation.

    Take part and enjoy your two cents the same as anyone

    I don't wish to stir the pot here but I genuinely don't see how a joke about a transsexual can be construed as homophobic.

    I didn't laugh at the joke (it was a tad in bad taste) but certainly didn't take offence.

    Either way can we not make it such a huge issue please?

    I enjoy the craic in here. If you don't enjoy a joke just scan on past it.

    All together now .... Kumbye Ah My Lord....

    Let It Go ...

    Seriously , can't keep track of the house , let alone the thread !
    We all have opinions,thoughts , but I don't think anyone on the thread is being deliberately malicious or homophobic tbh .

    Can we not just return to b!tching and the like:D

    I think I've put up homophobic comments on here, it's not like I'm being serious, it's ' joking ' I do the same with 'Straight' people..... People shouldn't take offense at the least little thing.

    Thats exactly my point if anyone cares to have a look back.
    It wasnt a hanging crime....the jokes were a bit shady and slightly in bad taste.
    Perfectly acceptable given the subject matter to say if you fell it is so imo.
    Doesnt deflect from the thread unless you anyone wants to make a HUGE issue of it.
    All to do with the debate :)

    Tbh, its such a tough issue (and Im no fan of India at all and her over dramatising and bandstanding on it) but I can only speak for myself and say that given the theme of the series, which is empowerment of women, it does have its sensitivities. Some jokes around it (sexuallity)can just seem off colour :)

    Thanks kittensmittens, I appreciate you taking the time to say that. I just think this series is gonna be tricky in here, knowing what to say and what not to say. It’s ridiculous, you can’t say anything these days. So, without being a drama queen, I’m out. Enjoy folks!
    Omg. Sorry. Been through it before twice. It's crazy. Even the first post I put up this season. Got a serious pm about it. There are other brilliant cbb sites in UK that are not so PCBRIGADE PROTECTED SNOWFLAKE . That you would enjoy. I'm on them myself after the pm I got after my first hi to my Irish cbb friends.

    I'm the same Colly. I'm of the mindset that deliberately leaving a cohort of society out of the joke due to percieved sensitivities is more discriminating than anything else. I'll treat them the same as I would any other and I know if I had trans mates I would probably rip the plss in good spirits like I do all my other friends. It's all in good humour and Gizmo we know there was no malice in your comment!
    Goodnight errdybody! :)

    All right Dave,no need to kick off.

    Sounds a bit similar to shart for me. That name would be more apt for Ashley I think after her story about the couch and the unpleasantness


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,178 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    I've never like Shane but thinking about it he may very well take no bull from Ann.

    Shane Lynch or Shane Drag?

    Will cute Tony the Pony make an appearance, I think there is a song link somewhere :P

    Rebecca Vardy [on BBOTS] has made a mess of her looks. I really admired her on IACGMOOH, but tonight I wouldn't recognise her only that her name was announced and somebody mentioned her on this thread. She has changed her hair colour, her face and her skin colour. If she intends going "on the run", she'll get away. LOL!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,908 ✭✭✭TallGlass


    Have we got our own 'Big Boards.IE House', more drama in here than the show itself.

    There's a few sensitive sallys here, people need to chill oush!

    It's only a bit of a laugh, janey mackers!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,980 ✭✭✭wyrn


    I thought some of the stuff said earlier was a little bit in bad taste. I never once said anything was homophobic. If I thought something had seriously crossed the line, I would have reported it to the mods.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,266 ✭✭✭CollyFlower


    Anyone else think Wayan Sleep is really this guy...looking for a second chance..

    India keeps going on about it, she gets bored when the conversation isn’t about her being transgender. She’s the one making a big deal of it. There have been plenty other transgender people go on this show and they haven’t gone on about it half as much as she has.

    Ah Ive tried to be nice and reasonable Gizmo..nothing condescending in the above. Lets leave it there as it sounds like you are spoiling for a row about something you think is said but isnt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,980 ✭✭✭wyrn


    Anna, congrats on reaching 10K. I wish you could celebrate with Tony the pony, this will have to do instead.
