Why did Pete give a photo of Spiral to Richard? It seems to me that he was enjoying making poor old Spiral uncomfortable.

Spiral plays practical jokes but does it for a laugh rather than to make an individual feel bad or look foolish.

Thats double standards. If Spiral has a liscence to 'play practical jokes' then surely the other HM's also do.
The thing spiral and mikey did with susie - swapping the draws - if she hadn't reacted so well to it - there could've been a chance she felt bad and looked foolish. But good on Susie for reacting so well. :laugh:

Nah,they were just having a laugh with him,IMO although i don't know of the photo incident that you mention, I'm liking all three at the moment. Spirals growing on me,I dont want him to go just yet. :wink:

It was 100% a joke. No bullying at all involved. Did you watch it live by the way or just see the edited highlights?

Erm,personally I don't think she reacted that well...:sad: she acted very strange,especially in the garden, and didnt react by laughing with them,but instead put herself up on a pedestal as if everyone was foolish. Still not liking Susie unfortunately :bored:

Nowhere - had she acted all ditzy and silly like they wanted her to react well.. she would've looked foolish.
She completely turned it around to create awkwardness within spiral and mikey and the joke was on them cos she didn't react the way that they wanted her to. :hugesmile:

Stella did you watch it live and see the jokes that spiral did and why Pete and Rich decided to play one on Spiral? or just see the highlights and what they decided to show people.

True. Her mad laugh kinda made her look a bit insane lol, but yeah i suppose your right. Still though..I'll be voting Susie and Imogen out (I always say that,but i never actually vote :tongue::spin2:)

everyone sees poeple different you know and i ment that sprial must feel uncomfortable and richard thinks nothing of it

Lauren

Just as Spiral thinks nothing of his practical jokes?

GlitterEyes
25-07-2006, 01:03 AM
Spiral was also laughing about it if you watched it on the live feed he was happily playing along:bigsmile:

25-07-2006, 01:03 AM
look, your gonna defend rich until the end so there's no point in this or is there

GlitterEyes
25-07-2006, 01:04 AM
Did you watch all of it live stella?

Lauren
25-07-2006, 01:05 AM
We're having a discussion miss79stella. I'm simply giving you my opinion on the matter. Had you watched the live feed you would have seen that Spiral thought it was very funny. There is no use speculating how he could have felt, because you saw he was laughing.
The same could not be said for Spirals joke on Susie which she did not take as being funny. She would have also felt uncomfortable.

You are going to defend Spiral until the end.

GlitterEyes
25-07-2006, 01:06 AM
It annoys me people start a subject then don't stick around to debate it.:bored:

Lauren
25-07-2006, 01:09 AM
When their argument has no substance they come up with some excuse like "Well you're so and so's fan so your argument doesn't even count" and then leave. Both me and GlitterEyes are debating this in a mature manner stella, so you might aswell stick around so we understand your point?

GlitterEyes
25-07-2006, 01:10 AM
I was looking forward to a good old debate on this aswell because it was all fun pratical jokes and if they seen it live they would of known Spiral was also playing jokes and Pete and Rich decided to play one back.

Nowhere
25-07-2006, 01:11 AM
What exactly happened??

Lauren
25-07-2006, 01:12 AM
Me too. You can tell people who had watched JUST the main show from a mile off. Ok I understand people may not watch the live feed, but after watching the main show they should not make definitive statements without all the context.

GlitterEyes
25-07-2006, 01:17 AM
All the housemates had been playing different jokes on each other with alot of it being Mikey and Spiral on others and Pete and Rich took note of that and decided to play that he fancies Spiral so in the friendship present thing he got a framed photo of spiral. Pete picked this as Richards present and they were all joking about it Mikey and Spiral played a joke on Glyn and Rich stuck up for Glyn and decided to put the pranks on them.

I think alot didn't get shown because we had that 8pm timeslot rather than later.

People who saw it live will of seen that it was all playful and fun but the poeple who only saw the highlights only saw a small fraction of what happened.

look you seem like a really huge bb fan to me, i only watch the highlights because i go to work and look after 2 kids, so get of my case, like i wrote poeple do see other people different you know

Right, well it sounds lighthearted to me, doesn't sound like anyone was offended...? :puzzled:

Lauren
25-07-2006, 01:20 AM
I wasn't on your case. Like I mentioned I understand not all people watch the live feed. I was just saying no need to make definitive points with only the backing of the main show.

GlitterEyes
25-07-2006, 01:22 AM
Yeah the main show is unfortunetly what alot of people only get to see which is what annoys me because they edit it so much it has huge influence on people who just watch it. Thats why forums are great because if you do just watch the main show you will be updated by what actually happened by people who watch it live.:bouncy:

Nowhere
25-07-2006, 01:24 AM
I don't watch that much of the live feed myself,purely because of the sound cuts...:bored::rolleyes:

Surprisingly enough, so does 99.99% of people. Not just you.

Come on everyone lets not get personal. We all watch a different amount of hours tv so some will be more aware than others as to what actually happens.

yeah that is one thing which does get annoying at times, the sound cuts are the same old ones aswell, they need some new sounds lol.

Lauren
25-07-2006, 01:29 AM
Ok sorry stella. I wasn't referring to your amount of TV watched. I was simply commenting on how many people can only fit in to watch the main show which means the main show has much power of the viewing audience. I wasn't making a personal attack on you.

Omg i know! I don't see why they cut the sound most of the time, the HM are only talking about something trivial like favourite foods etc.

I think in the house all jokes could be seen as bullying BUT the fact that all housemates at some point were all joining in and having a laugh with it makes it ok. Spiral was also laughing at it and joining in back so it was just his turn to get a joke. I think people need to take the jokes if they give them out aswell.

GlitterEyes
25-07-2006, 01:33 AM
That was 1 good thing about Nikki she was quite easy to lip read when she was in the house so the sound cuts were ok when she was speaking lol.

I think it's hilarious, and not bullying. Spiral is a sex-pest and Richard teasing him is what he deserves!

His constant harrassment of Aisleyne, last night's HL show was just so creepy what he said in the DR and then to her face.

I'll check it out on the repeat on E4 this afternoon. I'm sure he is no worse than Mikey.... just more in your face.

I thought that Glyn's England shirt was very good and funny. He took it in good sport.

Spiral's picture was a no how embarrassing for him, but really funny. Give him credit he stood up and admitted they had got him good.

It was a good joke, but they did drag it on a bit after its best before date.

This incident in no way constitutes bullying. How could anyone think it would?

Only a homophobe would be annoyed by this jape. I think Spiral was struggling with it.

Edwin
25-07-2006, 11:59 AM
Felt kinda sorry for Spiral, all this stuff is childish and unoriginal if you ask me.

I don't mind them with the picture, but when they kept going on at him in the garden, it just got annoying and went too far.

albie
25-07-2006, 12:17 PM
Because they recognised a bit of trouble he has with it. It's cyclical.

Jimbobwalton
25-07-2006, 12:18 PM
Or because they enjoyed making someone uncomfortable. it was taken too far in my view.

albie
25-07-2006, 12:54 PM
They can only make him uncomfortable if he is a bit homophobic to start with. All chavs should get this treatment.

If he'd joined in and said something like 'You're not man enough for me, Rich. I like them with hair.' instead of cringing, then it wouldn't have gone on.

All men do this pretend gay thing.

25-07-2006, 04:18 PM
I dont see whats wrong with Spiral cringing with Richard having a photo of him, I think most people would. I think it was a harmless joke though, but then Richard did what he does best and took it further, trying to provoke

So if someone had a photo of you in a heart shaped frame, you wouldn't feel embarrassed. I don't find that homophobic, he would have been just as freaked out if Susie had got the same present. And it's scraping the barrels calling him homophobic over a photo.

After Mikey and Spiral's ghost joke Spiral can't be looking for sympathy now.
