Default the gombe analogy

I thought this was quite interesting.in the sixies jane goodall a primatologist done a study if apes in the gombe nation park,originaly there was one troop of chimps all living happily together eating drinking an playing (hms first week)eventualy they split into north and south troops)b-block luxury bedroom)for reasons i cant say because it will take ages.anyway,over the next few years(weeks in hm terms)the north troop(b-block)systamaticaly picked of the south troop one by one(luxury bedroom) until ther was none of them left,therby taking over the whole area and the vital food supples i now its an analogy but its a bit to close to home,what do you think?

Wow! That was a thinker. But what basically is happening is that they were all living happily in Week 1, then split into teams, then B-Block team picks off the Luxury Bedroom team? Is that what this is saying?

Yeh makes sense.. but they aren't going to be killing them for food resources!

Similar to a Lord of the Flies theme that always seems to run through BB too - whether it's the "plastics" versus the "real" housemates or Heaven versus Hell. It's human nature for any group of people to divide eventually and align themselves with whichever group will benefit them most.

Can just see Rex as Jack in LOTF. Spolit, controlling little rich boy with a sadistic streak. And Darnell as his psycho side-kick.
