Why Is the bed wetting geordie ***** so popular?

[Waynoo]

Surely even fans of geordie shore would get bored of her attention seeking behaviour by now? I dont get her appeal.

[Pincho Paxton]

Well she did a wee on the bed, but don't worry, because you'll see a different side to her soon...

... the other side where the poo comes out! :joker:

[JTM45]

I think her bed-wetting is a rather unpleasant habit but how is she a "*****" exactly ?:bored:
Rather a harsh and un-justified accusation i think!:nono:

[smeagol]

she seems a nice enough person actually . her only downside is the farting burping drinking like a darts player pooing pissing and talking and acting like a skank lol

she could stop all that she'd prob be my fav if she did. dont mind the drinking but the rest is just grose

There is no need to be insulting/passing judgement on the sort of people who might like Charlotte, just stick to discussing the housemates and there will be no problems

everyone passes judgement here on everything, what on earth are you talking about?if these fans are insulted that's up to them. this woman clearly appeals to the dumbed down masses who admire this revolting behaviour and probably replicate it. theres no doubt theres a correlation between this revolting behaviour and workless lazy people with no ambition to work and behave in a decent moral fashion

[Hairyhaggis]

I agree.

I don't know either why she is so poular.
If she was one of my daughters, as a decent parent I'm afraid I would have had a rather Long chat with her about her career choices. The programme Geordie Shore has done her no favours whatsoever. Neither is her actions whilst drunk in the CBB house.

From what we see of the normal, sober Charlotte she is a lovely, pretty,sensitive and quite clever young girl. Why would you want to earn that kind of reputation for yourself? A reputation like that is like mud....it sticks!

It is a rule on the forum not to insult fans of housemates, I would say that referring to a housemates fans as "the dumbed down masses" and "workless lazy people" is insulting

Calling people slags and bigots and racists and so on is fine then and suggesting some people are workless chavs is not? how do you draw the moral line between one and the other? or is it selective depending on someone personal agendas?

In the former case those words are being used about housemates, they are not nice things to say admittedly but housemates are fair game to be insulted, fans of them are not however

[alex_front2]

Charlotte represents alot of slaggy girls, you know the type: drunk, bimbo, fake tan too much make up, extensions, lip liner. Willing to perform a sexual act on a cabbie in exchange for fare home and a kebab. Girls up and down country idolize the likes of Charlotte and will defend her with some flimsy reasoning she's a heroine as she has her own tacky clothing line etc. Men like for same seasons:she seems "easy".

She's just young and immature,It is quite sad that teens probably think she's cool or whatever but she will grow up and cringe at herself when she gets older.She does'nt seem like a bad person tbf.

Must be because her mum passed away, and she uses sex and drink to make herself feel wanted.

Deep down she is a venerable child inside. She also seems to have a nice caring nature.

I don't endorse her wild antics but I do see a nice person. I feel a bit sorry for her, although I shouldn't.

She can't be short of a few quid! :eek: :D

[DanaC]

I think, whilst some of what she does is pretty revolting, a lot of people admire her lack of inhibitions. Lots of people want to let loose more than they do in life. Seeing someone who doesn't feel bound by social convention can be a little thrilling.

[Daffodil]

I think the only thing this girl will walk away from BB with is a reputation as 'The Girl Who Peed The Bed'. I think when she is older she will very much regret this stab at 'fame'. Even now it seems to be the only thing people describe her as. I guess it's a marginal improvement on 'The Girl Who Does Blow-Jobs on The Telly'.

I'm not a massive fan of Carol but i think she was right when she said about Charlotte putting it on, overdoing that whole drunken party girl image.

That night when Mario etc put her to bed - you could see it in her eyes she was not half as drunk as she was making out to be.

Plus she feels the need to advertise herself the whole time "oh look everyone, hey everyone! look look ! I've p****d the bed!"

She did the same thing with punching the cake. Made sure everyone knew and saw that she did it.

It's not natural. It's all very contrived behaviour, designed for attention and too obvious.

Like some drunken "wacky" female David Brent

What's worse, contrived drunk, or real drunk. If you can be a party girl that isn't really drunk you have the best of both worlds. I am a bit like that. I don't drink much, but I have fun with the people that are drunk.

carol is not a nice person lets face it.

Oh yeah that is the best way to enjoy a party and drinking. All the fun without the hangover!

But Charlotte does that whole attention seeking thing which doesn't feel like fun to me. Getting people to carry her to bed, then falling off it etc. We've all been around people like that, physically supporting them while they stagger home after a party and all that. That's not fun in my eyes, it's just physically and mentally draining for the people around them. People like that actually ruin a good night out for others i reckon. Whether it's real or contrived it feels the same - it's no fun when you have to 'deal' with someone - esp if you've had a few yourself and just want to mellow down.

The one main difference between the real and contrived drunk though is the vomit. So contrived drunk wins in that respect!

To be fair, a lot of people who love watching her and are amused by it won't aspire to be the same.

And if they're young enough to be influenced by such behaviour that they might emulate it then they shouldn't be watching BB. Role models are few and far between.

Young girls ARE impressionable though.. And they do watch BB.. They might not aspire to be exactly like her, but they obviously find her behaviour acceptable. Promiscuity becoming more acceptable is to blame for the rise in the number teenage pregnancies and STDs in teenagers

Yeah shes a hetero girl who loves cock, hetero men love fanny so whats with the double standard?

she's not too bad. The pee stuff is absolutely disgusting but overall she is a nice enough girl. There are probably much worse people out there who could be possible role models than her.

A ***** is someone who gets paid for performing a sex act ......Charlotte ( as a fan pointed out the other day ) gets paid for being in Geordie Shore, on this how she had performed sex acts ....I rest my case

[smudgie]

I am liking Charlotte.
Ok she wet the bed, wow...lets hang her for it.

She does and says things on the telly that most people do in private, for me that is her only fault, if indeed it.is a fault.
The girl has a good heart, hopefully she will grow away from her Geordie Shore persona as she gets older and matures a little.

[Josy]

There's a lot worse than Charlotte, she has a good heart and she's not a slag or a ***** just because she speaks about sex a lot fgs and so what if she's had a couple of toilet related accidents she's certainly not the only person her age to have been there.

There is tons of girls and guys her age that go clubbing and end up going home with someone, big deal.

And Chuff that's complete bollocks tbh she doesn't get paid to perform sex acts, she gets paid to be on GS, they go clubbing, days out, trips abroad and so on....dear god the way people twist the truth to suit their own agenda is pathetic, if you don't like her fair enough but theres no need to tell lies.

Got to disagree with you Josy ,she appears on a show ,she gets paid and on this show she has sex and performs sex acts ...no difference

The thing that annoys me most about Charlotte is not so much the wacky drunk girl antics but the fact she has to advertise it so loudly all the time
hey everyone look look look - i've wet meself etc etc

Like everyone is a guest on the Charlotte show

Worse still is how much she plays up to it and deliberately fakes it. Like when Mario etc carried her to bed. You could see in her eyes she wasn't that drunk - as Carol confirmed.

Then when she 'collapsed' in the diary room the next morning. Oh please.

[Videostar]

A lot of people haven't TBF.

[Toy Soldier]

A lot of people haven't TBF.

Yes but then they authoritatively talk about it as if they have, e.g. saying it's "soft porn" in places which is ridiculous. These people have either never seen GS, or have never seen porn.

The absolute most you ever "see" in Geordie Shore is a bit of "cover twitching" or obvious bobbing up and down on nightvision cams like has been shown countless times on Big Brother. Plus, with Charlotte it's always been with just one other person (other GS cast member Gaz) who she clearly had strong feelings for. The last 2 series she's had a boyfriend off the show and hasn't done anything at all.

Almost all of the "sex scenes" (during which you see nothing) on GS now are Gaz and Scott and random girls they pull in clubs, Scott and Holly (the one who was on BOTS) or occasionally Sophie and her long term boyfriend. You basically see them clamber in bed, 3 seconds of covers fumbling, then it cuts to the following morning.

"Soft porn", indeed :rolleyes:

[DanaC]

That could be countered though with good and consistent sex education in schools. At the moment you don't have to specialise in that area to teach it and schools choose whether or not to deliver it at all. Consequently, in the schools that do teach it, many of them are relying on non-specialists to deliver it. Games teachers, geography teachers etc.

Mind you my info on that is a few years out of date. Last time I had any involvement in education at that level, there was a new sex and relationships education curriculum being offered to schools, along with specialist training for the teachers who were going to deliver it. But it was an entirely voluntary scheme. One of the areas of our borough (the one I represented) was a very challenged place. One of the highest rates of teenage conceptions in the region, very high unemployment and NEETs rates and average lifespan around 10 years lower than a few miles down the road. All the indicators.

Of the secondary schools that served the area two were faith schools, one Catholic, one CofE. Neither of those would agree to taking on the sex education curriculum. All the studies seem to show that better sex education reduces teen conceptions, and combining it with it with relationship education reduces abuse and can lead to girls especially, feeling less pressured into sex before they're emotionally ready.

So frustrating.

[mizzy25]

I don't know whey people think shes a Geordie, she certainly doesn't sound like one she sounds like a mackem. On 1st impressions I didn't like hert (I don't watch Geordie shore) then she grew on me a bit, then the whole pretending to be so drunk she wets the bed has put me right off her again.

Omg, my daughters sex education started last year when she was 8... We've actually just been discussing what she learnt today... She's absolutely outraged to have discovered how babies are actually born... And even moreso by the fact that her dad and I must have had sex! Lol.. The look on her face was one of utter disgust! :laugh:

It's not really charlottes attitude to sex that makes me dislike her .. I just find her generally disgusting.. She's crass, rude, loud and just has absolutely no femininity about her.. I have to admit,!o can be quite the party girl at the weekends; I drink a lot, I dance, I sing.. And often make an arse of myself when I'm with my friends, but I Would never act like Charlotte, no matter how much I've had to drink... I don't know if its down to upbringing or if its just a generation thing, but I've never boasted about sexual conquests, given a blowjob in front of other people, never pissed or shat myself, I know when it's inappropriate to swear and I don't do everything I can for a bit of attention.. I just think she's a disgrace... She gives women a bad name :bored:

To be honest I'd look to moderating housemate insults as well next season. Free speech is a wonderful concept in theory but when you extend it to the sort of nameless, faceless lunatics who take over this place during on season it can be a real turn off to everybody else.

If someone can construct a well worded, witty spiel against a housemate they don't like then all the more power to them but the forum is full of just some absolutely horrendous threads by a parade of generic thirty five post douche bags who've made it their sole mission to type a barrage of uncreative, visually ugly threads and posts usually centered around one or two people who they don't like time and time again. JIM IS A SLAG LOOK AT HIM EVERYONE LOOK AT HOW HE POOED IN THE SINK ON DAY 15 DO YOU AGREE WITH HIM? THEN YOU'RE WHATS WRONG WITH BRITAIN HAHAHA.

Something like that. Only stripped of grammar. Something I couldn't bring myself to enact even in mock quotation.

It's got nothing to do with their right to free speech and everything to do with the fact that they are just crap posters who should be swept under the rug for that reason alone. Rhyming 'shore' with '*****' puts you neatly in that bin. Most forums do it. Here you actually have to explicitly break rules to get banned but you can drool on your kneecaps all you want in between.

Put me right off the place it has. Bit of quality control wouldn't go amiss. Bit of a left of field rant I know. Bring it up in the towers or something. Sieg Heil and peace out.

Young girls ARE impressionable though.. And they do watch BB.. They might not aspire to be exactly like her, but they obviously find her behaviour acceptable. Promiscuity becoming more acceptable is to blame for the rise in the number teenage pregnancies and STDs in teenagers

The girls young enough to be impressionable shouldn't be watching.

If they do watch, that's not people like Charlotte's fault, or even BB's fault but their parent's fault.

I would agree with this tbh. I'm hoping the rules get revised for next season as this time round has been awful. I dont see the value in housemate nicknames and such, or one liner insults in every thread. Or the pathetic spam threads we get so often that say not much at all. This year we even had a poster who was hellbent on creating threads everytime a certain housemate moved, but the title would just be an insult, and there was nothing but a . in the OP. Then when they ended up banned for spam, obviously it was put down to bias :bored:

Charlotte seems like a nice lass and all, but I kinda hope she doesn't win. She looks like she's being booked as the obvious winner of the batch, and honestly, there's already been a ton of vulgar housemates win BB (Josie, Sam, etc.)

I've never watched Geordie Shore and from what I've seen of Charlotte,I'm glad I havent,I see nothing exciting about her at all,don't understand the hype tbh.

Charlotte is the next in the production line of personification of modern working class youth culture defiance to follow Jade Goody (rip) and Gazza. Pissed, promiscuous, vomiting, vacuous, lewd and crude but crucially too busy throwing up to question the status quo or wonder why no one from working class Gateshead is being tipped as a future leader. But hey, who needs a profile in the Guardian* when you can live the Geordie Shore lifestyle.

Rather than questioning why all potential Prime Ministers are production line Eton/ St Paul's/ Wycombe Abbey clones and striving to change this, Charlotte is the result of upper and middle class TV executives peddling unchallenging insipid lowest common denominator working class as some sort of paragon of virtue.

"Our Charlotte" is hailed as great working class heroine coz she pisses her pants when " mortal " unlike those posh youths who quietly spend their time getting internships at blue chip corporations or start up tech companies developing aps, or getting work experience at Westminster.

Charlotte is the opiate of the masses to pi $$ ed to challenge the establishment.

..I agree with Stu, the constant attacking of housemates on a very personal level, rather than commenting on behaviour in the house and ridiculous and offensive thread titles has started to spoil people having discussions/debates about housemates as it's just who can insult them more..I know it's meant to be more of a 'free for all' where housemates are concerned but it's got really stupid and inevitably ends with members insulting other members for their opinions..and then they're punished when really these 'hate' threads are encouraging it all...

Im a fan of geordie shore, and ill point out Charlotte is the most popular person in GS and the reason most people watch it.

she is in no way a *****, how can u brand someone thing when u don't event know them? she is a human being ffs.

..I have to admit that I'd never watched Geordie Shore and had a very preconceived opinion of Charlotte before she went into the house just by things I'd read..I was certain I wouldn't like her and am very surprised that I actually do...calling her a '*****' or similar is totally unnecessary..the language/terminology she uses makes me often cringe but if you see beyond that she seems like a nice girl and that to me is more relevant...and I don't think it's any different to when people liked Ron because they could see beyond his racist comments to the positives he was as well....

[Toy Soldier]

That could be countered though with good and consistent sex education in schools. At the moment you don't have to specialise in that area to teach it and schools choose whether or not to deliver it at all. Consequently, in the schools that do teach it, many of them are relying on non-specialists to deliver it. Games teachers, geography teachers etc.

I disagree - it could be countered with good, consistent, open, honest and unembarrassed sex education AT HOME. I.e., parents not copping out and expecting "the system" (which is deeply flawed) to teach their children everything, and who go scarlett at the mere thought of mentioning a peeners or bergina to their children.

Stop blaming schools, stop blaming the media, influences and "role models". The truth is, teenagers and young adults would have a more responsible attitude towards sex if it was demystified and openly discussable at home, and that is what would lead to healthy attitudes and fewer unprotected mistakes that lead to pregnancies or STIs. Sex isn't dirty, sex isn't the problem. The problem is that it's become something so hidden and shameful that our young people don't have the confidence to do it without being drunk - and that's when poor judgement (having sex with random people) and mistakes (lack of / improperly used protection) occur.

Britain is still sexually repressed. Cultures with a more honest, open and less scathing attitudes towards sexuality have fewer teen pregnances and less sexually transmitted infection. This is just fact.

People are just shallow, they let surface things like the way she speaks or her sense of humour become more important than who she actually is as a person - e.g. last night's HL show when she was the ONLY housemate who followed Lauren because she wanted to make sure she didn't feel alone or ganged up on, while the rest cackled in the garden...

Because there are a lot of people who don't use many brain cells and because there is the crowd who uses next to none of course.There's a lot more uneducated chavs around than you think.They spout opinions around like verbal diarrhea usually copying each other as they are too lazy to read up on things on the internet so of course the brainless chavs were always going to have someone who's proud of pissi*g and *****ing as their favourite.

..just slightly off topic..I've noticed that you're transgender and I know that's obviously been discussed in CBB atm with Lauren...I can see that it's been extremely difficult for you in many ways I would imagine..and you're right, there is so much that people in general don't understand..you could make a thread about it to discuss it in the main forum in serious debates section and maybe help people to understand more..?...obviously if it's something you feel you want to do though....

This is absolutely correct - it was Charlotte who noticed and flagged up Courtney's predicament. This definitely shows some level of maturity and the ability to show more than self-awareness. There have been a few little flashes of similar depth from Charlotte. I sense she might have staged the 'drunk' scene in order to fall out of bed in a comical way afterwards. I think she might have heard Carol say she had not had much to drink and that she was acting so she wet the bed to make it look like she had been drunk...

I agree. But: unless you have some kind of magic wand to wave which will stop individual parents being embarrassed / morally disinclined to talk about sex with their teenage children then the problem will persist at a societal level.

The government cannot legislate those family relationships. It can legislate what is taught in school. Studies show that in places with well designed and well taught sex education these problems lessen considerably. That cohort of youngsters are then more likely to become the parents who will teach the next generation about sex and relationships in a less cackhanded way.

..I haven't really seen Charlotte enough to know whether some of the things have been 'staged' or exaggerated, that's possible..but I also think she's not the only person to do that, I think Louie's actions much of the time are played to his celebrity persona. but that slipped a bit when he cried which showed a vulnerability..maybe Carol 'stages' some of her remarks as well in that she has a hard image on Loose Woman so maybe she's 'playing the bitch' because she knows that's what her fans like...if that's true then she hasn't shown another side yet so it's hard to see beyond that...

..most of the HMs in CBB are self-centred and me me me and don't really show much concern for others other than to criticise/bitch about their actions which is why it was so refreshing to see Charlotte show that concern for someone else or even to have observed it in the first place because it shows she's aware of other's feelings around her....

[Kizzy]

I do agree that sex isn't the problem.. Our booze culture is. I don't think any other European country has the alcohol problems we have.

I agree totally with this, and celebrity culture too. If a celeb pisses themselves or exhibits any out of the ordinary behaviour it's deemed fine to mimic that behaviour, however socially unacceptable.
Nobody ever says 'too far' now, anything goes.

[the truth]

the british booze culture is pathetic has been for decades. we claim we are now able to express ourselves and were not repressed anymore. I think that's a big fat lie. we have gone from stiff upper lip to raving junkies....but its all a mask for a nation that is unable to express itself and hides behind booze and drugs. the trouble with the brits is theyre not allowed to express the poetry in their soul

[RodHull]

People who see it as an entertainment show don't care for positive attributes as long as they're entertaining.

Hitler would win if he was a total bitch who hogged the airtime. Its pretty sad.

Godwins Law ftw!!

OT though, she is appealing cause she appeals to the lowest common denominator. The same reason her awful show is popular, people like to watch car crashes or the wreckage they leave, this is the human equivalent. For all people say they like her, they dont give a s**t about her, otherwise they'd see a sad needy little girl trapped into acting like a twat for their entertainment who doesnt want to do it most of the time.

Oh and also for whoever said there is no evidence she is a *****, she gives BJs/has sex on television for other peoples entertainment, Id say that qualifies .

[the truth]

I do think though charlotte has become better looking and I seriously do fancy her now. The big head says I detest everything she stands for but the little head tells me different. who am I to deny biology? Mario definitely wants to bang her bones too, but because of the way she behaves he cant be seen to fancy her on national telly

[flamingGalah!]

I have no idea why she is popular... :conf:

The girl is disgusting, she seems to have become an over the top parody of her former vulgar self & clearly thinks she has to act in such an undignified manner...

And she IS a *****/slut/trollop! She brags about sleeping around & is even happy to do so whilst being filmed! That sounds pretty sluttish to me :nono:

[DanaC]

What makes her hot is that she openly enjoys sex. I think most blokes, when all is said and done, want to have sex with someone who really enjoys a shag.

[the truth]

interesting point she certainly does seem lustful

[Daffodil]

But surely there are a lot of people who are lusty and randy and horny who don't go on about it all the time?

Again, no she doesn't. She had an on/off thing with another GS member and now has a boyfriend off the show. The ONLY GS members who habitually sleep around are two guys - Gary and Scott.

You're staring your preconceptions of the show as if it's fact!

So she has NEVER had sex on Geordie Shore? And she never goes on about cock & shagging blokes?? You will be telling me next that she never pisses or sh*ts herself either...

I watched the first 2 episodes of GS yesterday out of curiosity :blush2:

Its not as bad as I thought it would be (though I have been told it gets worse as the show goes on). Charlotte seems quite likable so far tbh. That Gaz bloke though, what a douche :bored:

I like Geordie Shore for the same bizarre reason that I like Big Brother. They are exactly the same thing! Honestly, BB fans getting on their high horse about any show... It's beyond hypocrisy. The "sex" on GS is no different to, for example, the under the cover shuffle between Ashleigh and Luke S. People seem to have some idea that they explicitly show sex. They don't, they show a couple of seconds of duvets moving and then cut to the next morning.

I was also specifically referencing the notion that she "sleeps around". Whether or not she's had sex in the GS house is irrelevant - its still not sleeping around.

I would also never stoop so low as to call anyone a "vile slut", for any reason, let alone someone so clearly harmless. I'm sick of the bitter, bile-spewing posts on this forum, I really am. It seemed great when I first joined towards the beginning on civilian BB. Now it's completely descended into just another haven for hateful people to wave their placards and brandish their pitchforks. Is there a forum out there, somewhere, with only intelligent, respectful people discussing Big Bro? Is it some well kept secret that someone can PM me about?

I too watch Geordie shore and enjoy it for the same reasons as I enjoy watching BB, I like to observe how they react to certain situations, how their friendships and relationships work out and stuff and they are pretty similar imo.

I also think it's a good thing to see how close they all are to each other and they always look out for the others when one or two of them has drank too much they never leave them on their own, take them home and put them to bed etc.

You never see anything sexual going on really either apart from movement under the covers so in all honesty comparing it to porn is laughable...

The vile slut and ***** comments about Charlotte are over the top and that's my honest opinion, speaking about sex and being open about discussing it does not make someone a slag, sleeping around with numerous different people does and Charlotte hasn't done that...

I dont really see how BB and GS are the same really. GS seems incredibly scripted a lot of the time(and thats only from watching 2 eps :laugh: ). Much like TOWIE

Well I can't speak for the other member that mentioned it but I was meaning I find them similar in they way I get to observe how people strike up relationships when they are living in a house together and how they react to certain situations etc.

I don't know that they're told to - they just understand the situation - that they have to keep it entertaining or no one will watch it, and so they play up to the cameras a bit...

...just like Big Brother. It really is no different. People absolutely worshipped Gina and Dexter for "providing entertainment" even though almost every single thing they did or said was acted, exaggerated, planned, "scripted" in their own heads. The only difference is that on BB the aim is to win a single series of a show, whereas on GS, "winning" is keeping it entertaining enough / themselves popular enough to keep the show going.

They're obviously put in ridiculous situations constantly and their running commentary is scripted to an extent, although they more or less script it themselves, but it is pre-planned. But their individual relationships with each other / who their friends are / who they've fallen out with are as "real" as anything on Big Brother. Probably moreso - as they've known each other for years on and off the show, rather than trying to claim that they "love" or have deep friendships with people they've known for 6 weeks like on BB...

Anyway it's pretty irrelevant... whether you watch / like the show or not, the point stands that the assumptions being made by people who have watched zero or very little of GS about what Charlotte is like or has done over the years are for the mostpart completely inaccurate. She had a few drunken fumbles - which they don't even really show - over the first few series with one guy on the show who treated her like dirt and broke her heart, and then she broke away from him, got a boyfriend who has never appeared on the show, and has done nothing sexual since. Apparently this translates into being "a vile slut who sleeps around on camera".

In fact none of the GS girls have been particularly promiscuous. One has had a boyfriend who does sometimes appear on the show since series 2, another was engaged to one of the other GS members for years and has never done anything sexual with ANYONE else. Then there's Holly... who does sleep around a bit... and has worked her way through the males of GS... but, even she isn't on a par with the two guys who constantly sleep around on the show - which is where I think the preconception that they're all doing it comes from.

I just can't fathom why people are pretending to know what Charlotte is like on GS when they clearly are just making it up off of the top of their heads, based on what they've heard about the show in general?

Big Brothers Target audience is mid-20s, female, middle-aged mums wanting to be in the mid-20s again, slags, and bed wetters ...

everyone passes judgement here on everything, what on earth are you talking about?if these fans are insulted that's up to them. this woman clearly appeals to the dumbed down masses who admire this revolting behaviour and probably replicate it. theres no doubt theres a correlation between this revolting behaviour and workless lazy people with no ambition to work and behave in a decent moral fashion

This.

...Is there a forum out there, somewhere, with only intelligent, respectful people discussing Big Bro? Is it some well kept secret that someone can PM me about?

If there is you certainly wouldn't qualify to join :xyxwave:
