You cannot say "home economics is always high on their list of priorities". It's not oversensitivity, it's intolerance to stereotyping whether wrapped in the guise of a compliment or overtly insulting. other such ridiculous statements for different groups, to put this in context include "they're aggressive", "they're all good at running", "they're all good at maths", "they can't drive", and "they can all do kung-fu".
I hope your intention isn't to offend, but when things you say are highlighted as offensive, maybe you should sit back and think about why someone else has taken the time to highlight this instead of immediately complaining about the development of society and yearning for "the good old days where a little bit of racism was ok!"

Becky showed herself to be a gready selfish and very nasty piece of work overall while doing that.

Agreed. It's a nightmare adding up when someone is barking at you. You can lose concentration very easily and have to start again.

Whenever foods involved Becky turns into a monster.

But you wrote:

Who is the
Quote:

their

refering to? If not a whole entire race of people that you have attributed to having the exact same characteristics?
How else can a logical person respond if not with offence? Let alone an Asian female who isn't Carol Vorderman like in her approach to maths!!!
Just because you think it and want to write it doesn't make it inoffensive.
It is in its entirety offensive.
A suggestion. An apology would be graceful and acknowledgement that you understand the offence

If I have offended i opologise but nothing i said was meant as a dig or a racial comment.

Thanks Sam.

Anyone that struggles with adding 200 and 143 together is pulling a stroke or has a hidden agenda.

If Deana cant count, she is the first well schooled Asian girl I have seen with that affliction. Home economics is always high on their list of priorities. Is she playing the game so cleverly we cant see it again or is it a real problem for her, i dont know but it looks strange to me that she actually volunteered to do something knowing she would look bad at,that dosent sound like Deana, she would normally not let that flaw in her make up be seen so as not to bring her into disrepute.

Are we seeing the real deana or once again a fantastic stratagist at work.

Oh. My. Days.

As long as you weren't offended kazanne, then I guess everything's fine. I'm still happy Sam's given it consideration. Good on him/her.

I think we can all agree Becky is in the wrong here. I can't believe what a nasty piece of work she's turning out to be!

Daniel if you read what I have posted I said that someone else had said (3rd party info)....quote....''Afro carribbean people that have done time are still gangsters''....unquote.

The statement was made as past tence, ie all AC people that have DONE TIME. Not that all AC people have done time. I am not suggesting that all black AC people are gangsters and have been to jail, I simply said that OTHER people thought that an AC person that HAD DONE TIME was still a gangster.

Firstly I wasnt suggesting it i was reporting something that was said 3rd party and it was you that read it wrong not me that wrote it wrong. It is similar to someone saying that it is unaceptable to use the N word and then have to sit back and be accused of calling someone an N person. Reporting 3rd party and stating facts are 2 different levels.

Becky is just being cranky because she's hungry and fat

WTF???

If Deana was doing such a **** job in her eyes why didn't she take over then?

She hardly gave herself time to breath after rattling off all the sweet luxuries she wanted added to the list! No wonder Deana was having trouble!

Please don't defend someone who is a downright rude and obnoxious bully and is clearly impatient at people who struggle when they're under pressure.

She even mocked her 'so-called BFF's writing, telling him straight to his face that his writing is untidy and he needs to do it better.

Obvious choice for her, when clearly nobody was doing it the way she was demanding it to be done, was to do it herself. However, that's not her style... she'd rather sit there like Lady Muck and dish out demands and criticisms and huff and puff to make them feel like idiots!

She should stop admiring herself in the mirror and take a good hard long look at herself on the outside as well as the inside because it's nothing to be proud of!

Can't stand the vile women!

Kate! · 19-07-2012, 10:02 AM

She was vile in last nights show, full true colours emerging. Shouted across at Ashleigh telling her what to do, and then commented that Ashleigh was stupid. She's so full of herself and thinks she's really popular now. Horrible person.

Look I'm not that fond of Deana either and at times agree that she may be putting on more of an act in there of being the quiet, reserved and just not understood HM - hey, it worked for Aaron (although I would put Aaron way above Deana every and any day!).

You can be excellent and excel at anything, but be put into a situation where you feel pressured, bullied and made to feel like an idiot then anyone can crumble at doing the simplest of things.

Give Deana a break. Becky is an industrial strength b*tch and thrives off making people underneath her (who she knows she can walk over) feel like ****.

Was Scott deliberately writing badly to wind Becky up as well then?

Razor · 19-07-2012, 10:18 AM

Becky is a self centred greedy pig.

I think I might be "some" of those people.

What is the racial thing?
What is the platform on which one may vent? Vent what? Why venting and not sharing?

...... and how is the fat thing equivalent

? Would it be like equating a physical characteristic with mental ones?

Livia · 19-07-2012, 11:18 AM

Becky is just awful. What was all that crap she ordered? Why wasn't anyone saying... hang on, aren't we getting anything with any kind of nutritional value? She eats like a pig and some people still expect everyone to pussy-foot around the fact that she's grossly obese.

As for Deana's adding up... just because she's well-educated doesn't mean to say she will be good at maths. I have a first from a top uni and I really struggle with maths, it's my weakest subject. No one is good at everything.
