Crispgate?!
 

Would someone please clarify for me whether those crisps were actually Sunshine's instead of having pizza? If so, why did so many people give her a hard time? Does anyone else think that Nathan, Ife, Keeva etc were really rude? If they were my crisps I'd really tell them where to go.... :nono:

I didn't see it but by all accounts my judgement is that they were out of line.

would someone also clarify why people put "gate" on things

I dont understand

watergate

According to Wikipedia -

'The suffix -gate derives from the Watergate scandal of the United States in the early 1970s, which resulted in the resignation of U.S. President Richard Nixon. Note that Watergate does not meet the -gate construction rule, as the scandal was named after the Watergate complex in Washington, D.C.; the complex itself was named after the "Water Gate" area where symphony orchestra concerts were staged on the Potomac River between 1935 and 1965'

:sleep::sleep::sleep:

Sill doesnt make sense why they put "gate" after everything

As far as i understood it last night, they all got crisps and pizza as a eviction night treat but sunshine left hers for later (although picked off the veg off the pizza) - shabby and caoimhe asked if they could have either the pizza or the crisps, initally sunshine said no but under pressure she eventually said they could have the pizza but she wanted the crisps for a crisp sambo when they got some bread!

i personally thought they were way out of order!

Since the water gate scandal of the 70s "gate" has been used as a suffix to express a scandal or high drama event!

As a Vegan ONLY Sundance got 1 packet of crisps with her name on them and wanted to save them until their was bread for a crisp sandwich!

There is no need to aggressively respond I did point out that i wasn't certain by saying as far as i know!

Either way they were out of order in suggesting she was wrong not to give them the crisps!

Sunshine got crisps because the others got pizza, it was her treat. They didn't give her a treat at first which was equivalent to the pizzas the other HMs got. Sunshine has already shared some of the vegan pizza she got as I understand. The other HMs are just greedy, they ate well enough last night anyway.

And all this was really just to try to get a controversy up before nominations on Monday. The usual tactics are question her about her name or her vegan diet to isolate her, so that's what the bitches were doing.

Tell me what was aggresive, I won't respond again, mate. The capitals were to emphasize the fact that they were Vegan crisps.

But that will be the last time I respond!:conf:

Hold on a mo Scumshine pal ,she got pizza AND crisps

Yeah I don't get this either

She's already shared the pizza. It's not like she gets very much for her to eat from the shopping list either.

It has been going on since Nixon lost his job!! BTW Nixon was an American President!:dance:

Yeah it sounds like they were very unreasonable. Who were they anyway? Which housemates went all mardy at Sunshine?



:laugh2:

Oh right...

Scabby and Co. plus everyone else except Ben!! lol Maybe St. David of Pontypridd was another exception!

Shabby, Caoimhe and Nathan mainly - although then the b*tching started and all the girls agreed with shabby and caoimhe but most the boys were jokingly at it but she then took this personally too.. but to be fair they carried on the jokiness a bit too long!

What so Mario and Steve were layin' into her as well?

Ife has dropped rapidly in my estimation after this. She almost broke free from those two cruel bitches, but she's just ruined it now. Sorry, but the girl has lost any respect I ever had for her, sheeps don't warrant respect.

No. It was mainly Caoimhe, Shabby, Ife, Josie and Nathan.

In fact, Mario actually said, "I like you for who you are, I don't care if you give me crisps" last night :)

When did Mario ever lay into anyone, and steve was probably already snoring!:elephant:

Her CHOICE ,she CHOOSES to be vegan so should not be treat as a special case

I was just asking that cos' one of the responses implied that everyone other than Ben and Dave layed into her.

Anyway the people who layed into her all don't like her that much, for no specific reason. Just puttin' that out there.

And hey, so what JJ was layin' into her? Really? I personally don't think he'd be that bothered by this, and Jelly says it was mainly Shabs, Camomile, Ife, Josie and Nathan... and when JJ is truly bothered by somethin' he really gets goin'. So I can't imagine him really goin' on about this yet still being overshadowed by them five. Thus, just making a judgement that maybe JJ is innoncent in this particular event as well, but nobody has clarified this.

Seriously though, how can there be so few people who layed into her? I mean it was nothing. Would so many of the other 11 housemates all lay into her over something so petty?

And the others CHOOSE not to be vegan. If they chose that lifestyle, they would get the same menu as Sunshine, and wouldn't need to guilt trip her out of her food. Works both ways :)

So 13 .........THIRTEEN hm8s should eat the same as ONE loonie? get real love

Well, watergate was a big drama, so people use "gate" i.e "crispgate" to refer to something as a drama as well. :)

Hope that helps.

Aplertinator: Other than Shabby, Caoimhe, Nathan, Ife and Josie the rest were more lighthearted mocking the others for laying into Sunshine to cheer her up.... but imo it went on a bit too long, to the point where Ben and Mario were getting involved too!

Mario sucks up to whoever he is around. JJ I think is playing a big game.

But then what you're saying is that even if there's less food for Rachael because she's vegan and therefore can't what the others are eating, that she should go without food because the others who have more options in what they eat simply decide to eat the only food in the house she can have.

Why's that fair?.

This is BB ,you eat what your given and be thankful for it

They'd go mental if they had to eat the same stuff she gets! lol (with the exception of CRISPS especially when they are labelled SUNSHINE in large letters!):joker:

I think we've lost the point somewhat. If all the housemates had been given crisps and everyone scoffed there's apart from say, Shabby, who saved them I bet she wouldn't share them because they were her crisps. It makes no difference if Sunshine is vegan or not.

It seems like they are intimidating her into sharing - not nice. The clip of Ife telling her to open them is really horrible. And Keeva - what a cow.

I actually feel really sorry for Sunshine. What a selfish bunch - they only care about themselves.

I think Sunshines entitled to her crisps.

Being a vegan is akin to being a loonie? Hmm, it looks like it's you who needs to get real.

Darling :)

Yep. As you said, "her" crisps. They've belittled her non stop for two weeks, and expect HER food?

Well she was totally bullied into giving them up!

Shes a vegan AND a loonie all wrapped up in one ugly bundle
