Why should anyone care whether people laugh with or at him? The point is he makes people laugh, and whether Ben appreciates being laughed at is irrelevant - its up to Ben to entertain us and so far he's doing a great job. No doubt he wouldn't appreciate the obsessive lascivious speculation about his sexuality, and/or the mindless class hatred of some of the idiots on this forum either, but that's all part and parcel of the BB experience.

A fact for you, when Ben was punished for discussing nominations with Sunshine and JJ I came on here and defended him asking why were SS and JJ not punished too. I'll point you to the appropriate threads if you want. You've made far more assumptions about me than I've ever done about you. That's interesting, don t you think?
During his exchange with the tree Ben did not even crack a smile. I remember it quite vividly as this was the main reason why I started to go off him. He should have at least seen the absurdity of the situation as Shabby and Keeva had a few days earlier. I sat dumb founded with how serious he was throughout the whole exchange, at one point telling the tree to shut up but never seeing the absurdity of a talking tree. I did not laugh as then I would have been laughing at his stupidity and I believe those who laughed were laughing indeed at him which I dont not think Ben would appreciate.
