Game over - still bullying & vile
 
Can all those on here who took me (and others) to task for being"too serious" in accusing James, Dee, Edele, Ricci and George of being vile bullies to Gary Busey, because it was only "a game", explain, why then, when the 'game' was over and the show ended, they all continued to slag the poor guy off and humiliated him in front of his wife and family? The ignorance displayed by that fat, guttersnipe, thieving parasite, Truffle Pig Dee Kelly, whilst Gary was being interviewed was shameful, as was the 'sour grapes' sniping by James 'I dance in the closet' Jordan.

The best man won and the right man came second.

Dee needs to shut her big mouth and think why the public voted her out and Gary and Audley in 1st and 2nd place.

This from a woman who stole money from a care home to fund her boyfriends drug habit.

She should look at her own low standards before throwing stones.

Get back in the gutter Dee, it is where you belong.

Patricia4 13-09-2014 09:15 PM

That's where she should be in the gutter.

This forum has been much more vile than any of the housemates. All I've heard for the last 3 weeks is disgusting comments about the housemates that are disliked. Kelly the bad ******, dee the fat sponger, and James the obvious homosexual. It's so easy to be vile behind the safety of your anonymity. All I can conclude is that the majority of you are daily star reading 12 year olds.

Awful I know, totally agree.

To be a part of it is to condone it and my exit is long overdue

"This forum has been much more vile than any of the housemates. All I've heard for the last 3 weeks is disgusting comments about the housemates that are disliked." --- The house-mates in question are disliked by the majority for valid reasons - their vile mistreatment and humiliation as a 'pack', of a defenceless, disabled and benign, solitary old man, as well as the abhorrent character traits they all personally shared; hypocrisy, lying and duplicity, to name a few.

They have been vile. This transcended any 'brinkmanship' or mischievous 'game-playing', it is in their nature. It is 'them', and being so, they have elicited anger and disgust in the majority of people who watched the show. Extreme action be-gets extreme reaction. If, I for one, have been vile and caustic in my comments about these turds, I make no apology, and the fact that they continued to conduct themselves in the same malevolent manner after the show had ended, reinforces my belief that I have nothing to apologise for. Where were their apologies to Gary Busey or Audley?

"It's so easy to be vile behind the safety of your anonymity." --- I only wish that I could have been in the house, because I would have stood up to these bullies, helped protect Gary Busey and supported Audley, and - unlike the vile scum you are defending - I would have repeated anything I have had to say about them to their face.

"All I can conclude is that the majority of you are daily star reading 12 year olds.!" --- I've never bought the Daily Star in my life - but I have a strong feeling it's the rag which Dee Kelley and a few of her cronies in the house might favour.

Those who elect to appear on these type of 'Reality' TV shows, do so for fame, fat fees, and other fortunes. By doing so, they become 'fair game' for those whose participation as viewers, ultimately pay for those 'fat fees'. If they choose to be vile and obnoxious during the time they are 'on show' to the viewing public, then they cannot complain when the viewers who are offended by that vile, obnoxious behaviour, become vile or obnoxious in their reactions. THEY are deserving of it, Gary Busey was not.

This post has been written by me by way of answering the points raised in Chuckyeggs post - it is my opinion, right or wrong, and is not meant to cause offence to any other forum member.

Please tell me then, whether you continued watching CBB14 after the first 4 days , when it became very apparent that the majority of the house were unashamedly ill-treating a disabled, helpless old man? Or did you exit so that you were not a part of it and were therefore not condoning it?

Interesting when viewed from different perspectives. As a Gary fan, I saw a huge number of threads and posts filled with nasty vitriol directed at Gary. It seemed the depths people would go to knew no limits.

I think its a general problem that people can get carried away when they invest so much time into following the show

???? Are you in agreement now? Thank you. :wavey: There is a gulf of difference between merited 'arms length' unpleasantness and ridicule in a critical post of 'celebrities' at large in the big wide world, who have the option of reading that post or not, than the 'hands on' unwarranted callous hostilty, ignorance and bullying of a 70 year old disabled man who is trapped for 3 weeks in the same small house as the perpetrators.

Ultimist 14-09-2014 02:51 AM

As a Gary fan, I've never said he is perfect. I'm sure some of the issues brought up by other housemates had at least *some* truth to them.

However,

I found that in many cases, they were exaggerating, and sometimes outright lying, as when Dee denied calling Gary a bitter old man.

I fully understand that some of Gary's habits may have been hard to live with... but I still say when someone is that age, has had a brain injury and several surgeries, has a profound hearing problem, the best thing you can do for them is CUT THEM SOME SLACK. Life is difficult enough for someone in that condition. They don't need a bunch of heartless, selfish, immature and verbally abusive people getting on their case, ON TOP OF what they already have to deal with on a daily basis.

It's called understanding and compassion, people.

Elderly people sometimes lose control of their bodily functions. It comes with age. YOUR body will deteriorate over time, as well... Everyone's eventually does, and I can bet that at that time, you will want people to be understanding of what you're going through.

Gary took everything people said on board, and tried to meet their requirements. He clearly tried to make improvements once an issue was made clear to him.

Conversely, do you think for one moment that James would try to NOT act so pompous and better than everyone else, if he were asked to do so?

Do you think Dee would take criticism on board and try to change if she were told what was wrong with her? HELL NO.

Do you think "poor little" Leslie could be told all the things he does wrong, and then learn to appreciate the feedback and use it to improve himself?

Gary is MILES ahead of the rest of them, as far as self-awareness goes. And he's humble, not a braggart like the rest of them. He doesn't pretend to be better than the rest of them, but nearly all of them pretend to be better than him.

As I mentioned in another thread, just look at the way he spoke lovely things about all of them, even though they've done nothing but complain about him, call him every name in the book, and slag him off in every way possible. That's the difference between someone with class, and someone who needs to attend a few (classes).

The right person won CBB Summer 2014. If you don't like that fact, there's little you can do, and I'm laughing at you.

No one's going to bully ME.

Interesting thread.This CBB has shown the best and worst human behaviours from some HMs.So its not surprising that some members of this forum could be deemed to have been OTT with things they have posted.

I don't know about you guys but when I start a thread its because I am genuinely interested in getting a response and reading other members reasoned thoughts on the subject and I feel there is a better chance of this happening if we remember that its not what we say but how we present it which counts,not only about the HMs but in our interactions with each other.

I have enjoyed sharing with the vast majority on here and on the very few occasions when this has not been so I ignore.

Also wise words. I think there has been name calling on all sides which can escalate with retaliation. I've always tried to state the truth as I've seen it on the show but I do confess to throwing in some insufferable twats and nasty bitch comments about James and Dee. Sometimes it is hard to contain your temper when behaviour is so bad you can barely believe what you are watching then you come to talk about and someone condones what you find abhorrant. I guess people just need an outlet to vent sometimes.

Well to all the GARY fans I applaud you and I thank you for your comments, I agree totally with everything which has been said. It could have been so different had they treated him as an equal instead of looking down on him.

He had to put up with their adolescent behaviour, I dont suppose he thought he would be in the middle of that. A middleaged man and woman trying their hardest to keep in with the young instead of realising that they had to grow up. Age comes to all and I fear for them (nah I dont really) as they get older.

With Dee I did wonder you know, Denise won her round but she was horrible to the American in there, she turned the others against him, did Dee think she would win by doing the same thing? I detested Denise from that day on she really showed her true colours, she was another one who couldnt grow up gracefully.

I totally agree with you Chucky that is why I left the forums for most of the last week. I couldn't take downright awful comments about some of the housemates specially Edele. I have never in my life left the forums but this time I had to. I adored the series. One of the best. And many of the posters can argue their point about their favourite or least favourite housemates without resorting to horrible sexual innuendo but alas there are always bad apples in the barrel. Oh well onwards and upwards. I have made bad comments myself but never ever as vile as others have . Peace :wavey:

For me, there were a lot of comments that were way over the top against all of the housemates, and it happened on the main BB too. I think we need to have a constant reminder displayed that its only a tv show, meant for some light entertainment

Some posters do tend to and are bound to get carried away during reality shows when they give their support to contestants, see stuff going on, and can't intervene, so it just can get so frustrating and the producers push the right buttons and probably love our reactions, which is why and I can only speak for myself I tend to cut other posters some slack unless I think they are verging into libel territory and try to repond to their posts in as respectful a manner as I can and even try to ingest some humour into posts if I can whilst also trying to get points across about what I interpret about contestants.

We have every right to scrutinise contestants and what we see as going on in that house, but think we just have to realise some posters do get overly emotionally involved in such shows and do realise that themselves, so I don't give others a hard time I hope. It's like a school tiff in the playground and we are all buddies again the following week :D

All I can conclude is that the majority of you are daily star reading 12 year olds.

Poor you having to be witness to all those naughty nasty comments,
about Big Brother housemates on a Big Brother forum.

You should demand that everybody in the all World should never ever say a negative comment about any other human being ever ever again. We can call it the land off make believe.

You'll get over the trauma in time.

I have never in my life left the forums but this time I had to. I adored the series. One of the best. And many of the posters can argue their point about their favourite or least favourite housemates without resorting to horrible sexual innuendo but alas there are always bad apples in the barrel. Oh well onwards and upwards. I have made bad comments myself but never ever as vile as others have . Peace :wavey:

I agree with you and Chucky. I left the forums more than a week ago. More to do with the horrible, nasty comments made to and about other posters. DS was even worse and I have vowed never to return to that site let alone the forums ever again! Peace to you too.

Any BB/CBB forums are all part of the social experiment to me - I agree they can hold loads of unpleasantness sometimes more than you will ever see in the BB house - but it's all part of the same exposure of human nature and response.

However,

I found that in many cases, they were exaggerating, and sometimes outright lying, as when Dee denied calling Gary a bitter old man.

I fully understand that some of Gary's habits may have been hard to live with... but I still say when someone is that age, has had a brain injury and several surgeries, has a profound hearing problem, the best thing you can do for them is CUT THEM SOME SLACK. Life is difficult enough for someone in that condition. They don't need a bunch of heartless, selfish, immature and verbally abusive people getting on their case, ON TOP OF what they already have to deal with on a daily basis.

It's called understanding and compassion, people.

Elderly people sometimes lose control of their bodily functions. It comes with age. YOUR body will deteriorate over time, as well... Everyone's eventually does, and I can bet that at that time, you will want people to be understanding of what you're going through.

Gary took everything people said on board, and tried to meet their requirements. He clearly tried to make improvements once an issue was made clear to him.

Conversely, do you think for one moment that James would try to NOT act so pompous and better than everyone else, if he were asked to do so?

Do you think Dee would take criticism on board and try to change if she were told what was wrong with her? HELL NO.

Do you think "poor little" Leslie could be told all the things he does wrong, and then learn to appreciate the feedback and use it to improve himself?

Gary is MILES ahead of the rest of them, as far as self-awareness goes. And he's humble, not a braggart like the rest of them. He doesn't pretend to be better than the rest of them, but nearly all of them pretend to be better than him.

As I mentioned in another thread, just look at the way he spoke lovely things about all of them, even though they've done nothing but complain about him, call him every name in the book, and slag him off in every way possible. That's the difference between someone with class, and someone who needs to attend a few (classes).

The right person won CBB Summer 2014. If you don't like that fact, there's little you can do, and I'm laughing at you.

No one's going to bully ME.

Very good post. James is undoubtedly a very unpleasant man, although not so young as he clearly sees himself.
