Does it bother you that poeple Americanise our Big Brother
 

Examples.

Calling our series "Season".

Calling the housemates "Houseguests".

For some reason it really irritates me. BB is a British institution and should keep its identity. The editing has already gone down the American route so lets not over do things.

Whats next calling trousers pants, pavements sidewalks or rubbish trash?

So vote does it annoy you or not?

i put no

No doesn't bother me at all. Think you're just being pedantic

Nope, couldn care less tbh

Another insult hurled by a member of staff.

Great example.

How is pedantic an insult?

Who does this? If it's about american members on here that's just what they call it over there so no it doesn't bother me.

can i ask what pedantic means

Being called petty is an insult.

Nah its british members.

Even Cowell/Barlow on X Factor do it.

It just annoys me for some reason lol.

Houseguests would surely be people from the outside world who come in for a task rather than the resident housemates.

Can't say I've noticed anyone using those terms tbh

:crazy:

He didn't call you petty though, he called you pedantic - which isn't an insult.

And no, it doesn't bother me. I don't care what other people call it. I call it "series" and "housemate" and for BBUS I say "season" and "houseguest" because that's what they're referred to.

Couldnt care less

Means the same thing.

Ooh another insult?

Yes. It really does. Alot.
It's like '****** up and learn our terminology if you're going to claim to be a fan of our series.' Happens alot on YouTube when people say things like 'I think that guy Aaron should be eliminated, he just doesn't contribute much like the other houseguests this season.'

****** off.

EXACTLY! lol thanks.

I know it shouldnt but even on im a celeb and X Factor aswell when they call the people voted off "evictees" gets on my tits. Evictee is Big Brother termonology, doesnt make sense anywhere else.

And fyi, you're complaining about people "Americanizing" our Big Brother (which I don't think many people do) but yet you've Americanised the title of this thread. Oops.

It doesn't mean the same thing, it means meticulous, don't make something out of nothing.

How is this title americanized? :/

are you going out with young Pat?

Have a burger , on the house

Because the British spelling is Americanised.

Americanized is American.

Watch yourself next time you want to create a point.
