Thank God the viewing public don't fall for the disability...

[thisisme2008]

I'm so glad that the general viewing public haven't fallen for Mikey's disability as a reason to like him. The general consensus seems to be that he isn't liked, and I think that it's good that he is actually being seen for the pillock he is.

I think that Mario thought because Mikey's blind, he'll stick with him, because he thinks Mikey will win because he's blind (perhaps this has occurred in past series? Shilpa Shetty and Pete?). I think Mario saw the opportunity and thinks he'll stay because he's the friend of the blind man. But he won't... Or I don't think he will...

Agree? Disagree?

Couldn't agree more, has Sara also started to use this thinking to become more popular?

Sara is a idiot for using Mikey.

:wavey:Mikey is just a housemate in my opinion whether he has a disability or not i still would dislike him!
:mad:
get him out!:nono:

[facethemusic]

Yeah I agree, the way he acts has NOTHING to do with being blind.

So anyone who likes Mikey in the house is using him, and anyone who likes Mikey outside of the house is "falling for his disability". Can a blind person not just be liked or disliked, without bringing their disability into it?

I strongly disagree...and I don't even really like Mikey. Kinda mediocre.

No i didn't say that, but often people think 'oh i'll vote for him because he's got a disadvantage' (and don't say that doesn't happen because as much as i wish it didn't, it does, i.e. Shilpa Shetty, i wanted her to win from day one, but people of speculate she got a lot of votes because of the whole incident, which might be quite accurate.). The point I'm making is that he should be liked/disliked without his disability being a factor, but it IS a factor, as little as i like it. i don't like him, but i'm glad that he isn't liked because he is a thoroughly nasty piece of work. I was worried that a lot of people might just like him because he's blind. But they don't. So they obviously see him for what he is.

The public have seen that he's one of the biggest bitches in there, the only problem is will the other housemates nominate him?
