Default The 'whale' comments
Okay, so I am probably guilty of this in the past as well, but why is it okay for people to use weight to bash housemates? Everyone understands that it is unhealthy being overweight, but calling Wolfy and the Twins whales and such over and over again is getting on my nerves. And it happens every year with an overweight housemates (Becky, etc.) It is just a cheap shot and shows the immaturity and uncreative of the poster using the word.

There are real reasons to dislike Wolfy and the Twins and people should not bring their weight into it.

Fatness is the last human trait we're allowed to make fun of without being put into prison.

It's childish and shallow, and ultimately makes you a disgusting person.

Are you refering to when Wolfy shouted to one of the twins... run fatty run?

Its annoying, same comments happen every year regarding weight and looks. Says more about the poster than the housemate in my opinion.

Josie was ****ing irritating but the comments she got was disgusting, funnily enough shes probably more attractive than half of those that felt the need to use such insults.

I generally agree and think that people are childish for picking on HMs about their weight.

However, I can sort of understand it much more when people go on about Wolfys weight, because SHE made it such a big issue herself.

I've only noticed this from one person. And that person was a Conor fan, so I don't take much notice.

It's funny, because the people who make these comments, are utterly tragic as well.

one of the many reasons to dislike her. She was obviously hypocritical there

doesn't mean it's cool just to slag off her weight when it doesn't factor in many of her other unlikable moments

a better question is why are the overweight ones such awful people? becky wolfy twins
is it cause they are just greedy by nature which makes them such nasty pigs or do they have a hangup with the world and thats why. does make me wonder .
they are fair game if they act the way they do. cause they are always the first to make a issue out of it.

hopefully one day they will put a fat one in who is actually nice and fun not a total beep then weight wont ever be a issue

One is worse than the rest, true. And I am still surprised he/she hasn't been banned a week or so ago
