I see no 'solid foundation' to your argument either! In the end - it comes down to opinion - what you believe!!

If you want to believe Marcus's intentions were so honourable - then go ahead - I for one most certainly DON'T!

And that is an opinion formed on the basis of observing his previous behaviour for the last two months!! Don't trust the man one little bit!!!

Cigerettes are a commodity, like food and tea bags.
If the smokers said they'll give extra portions of alcohol to the non smokers than it'll be fair but if it's for all HM why not take them? Whatever the motives.
Sophie was in the wrong for whistleblowing when it didn't concern her.
And lime do you feel a big man for calling out a spelling mistake or did you not get the gist?

I don't think the smokers in there would consider the cigarettes a 'luxury' item! Smoking is an addiction - with potential withdrawal symptoms!! Not life threatening - but unpleasant!

If David took a bit of butter - they weren't going to starve were they - don't be so dramatic!!

As I suspected - predictable response - not very interesting!!

As I am female & 5' 3 I most certainly do not feel like a big man.
As already pointed out ,ciggies belonged to all HM so it did concern Sophie

Than Sophie should have taken a pack if she was blessed with foresight.
And feeling like a big bad shouldn't be taken literally

Why should Sophie haven taken something that did not belong to her??

If you are insinuating that i feel like "A big bad " then I can assure you I am not.

What part of "equal shares" do you not understand? All items given to the housemates after succesful completion of the shopping task were for all housemates, not some.

If a housemate wants to smoke the fags, that's their privilege. If a housemates wants to use them for barter, then DITTO.

Simples

Didn't the cigerettes belong to all the HMs?
If the smokers paid for them fair enough but they didn't ergo it was a free for all.
And "a big bad" or not it's not nice to pull up people's grammar, it might come back and bite you on the rear.

It's hardly " equal shares" if one HM has taken something out of circulation.
All items are given to the housemates after successful completion of the shopping task were for all housemates,not some.

If a housemate wants to use them for barter,then DITTO.


So if David was to take some food out or circulation (hide it away) and then use it at a later stage to barter for ciggies that would be OK or would he be called a thief ??

I find Sophie more irratating everyday she sounds pissed up and cranky, on live feed last night i could'nt stand her voice much more, just shut up you annoying thick bitch

I really hate her

YES YES YES.They belonged to ALL housemates not Marcus.
To be honest, I didn't notice spelling mistake:blush:

I just do not see a gist/jist in this situation.

I just see Marcus wanting to be in control

Marcus didn't take anything out of circulation. The smokers would have still smoked the fags. They just might have had to swap say "Frosties" for them.

As for Fatty taking food out of "circulation" then I have to agree with you there. The food would have headed in a general direction of fatty's cavernous girth, not used as barter for ciggies. In that circumstance, then yes; Fatty would have consumed more than his fair share at the expense of all other housemeates.

Clearly not the same as Marcus retaining the fags for use later, as barter.

If you watched the live feed you would know! It's obvious you didn't. :cheer2:

If David took food from the party spread than he is entitled to do with it what he wants, I wouldn't call him a thief.
I didn't realise the smokers left all cigerettes at the party when they left, if they didn't than surely Marcus is allowed.
And I apologise, I thought you were correcting someones spelling.

Got better things to do than stay up all night to watch bb!!
I need my sleep!

Whatever you say - you don't and can't know his intentions!

There is no way he could prove his intentions! You just take him at his word! I don't! Simple as!!

VERY true ,he slated David who he THOUGHT had taken something yet he is a PROVEN thief it will be his downfall thank God !! hes up on Monday

I CAN and WILL call him a THEIF ,the cigarettes were for the smokers ,Mucus is not SMOKER he is a THEIF !! but he will be up on Monday now

I must have missed Big Brother saying that

You probably do miss a lot with that 77 - social interactions can be quite tough :pat: neve mind

lol
That was the best you can do?

i hate Marcus

Why can't he take them, they were for everyone. So what if he is going to use them to trade with. That's just the way life is, get with the program people! Look after number one like everyone eles does in that house.

And who stipulated this?

You?

:shrug:

He has been CAUGHT red handed

Personally i think Marcus was out of order last night, what right has he got or anybody to hide cigs, to give to people when feel its the right time, its like a mother/father doing that with kids with sweets, i've said from day 1 the guy is a total control freak, i've been proved right.
