Nighty night!

Oh well

I think Pete is a bully and a crybaby, Jodie is no angel, but she is a victim in this particular situation, Michael is a very weak easily led person, George is a bad politician, Traci is sweet and the voice of reason, and Dennis has a broken willy.

Nothing will change my mind, end of subject, time for bed, I have clients tomorrow

Happy Sleeping all

Work it out for yourself. Goodnight.

She's a crybaby too, just you wouldn't expect it from a man who considers himself so strong.

Pete will see alot of himself in Jodie, and it frightens him.

He's started a Jodie conversation with Michael now.

She has got to him, big time. She hasn't been around for ages!

[Substance]

I did work it out, I wasn't going on about your balls dropping response I was talking about your claim to being mature which is another response from you that shows me your arrogant. =P

Anyways I'm off aswell so good night and thanks for the fun.

Yup, and she's in the wrong there, but Pete should know better at 46.

Like I say, she's no angel at all, and she has to learn.

He started waterworks because he hadn't seen his boyfriend for 7 days, i'd say that was a problem for a grown man, would you not?

Yeah but hes not trying to get sympathy

Don't bet against it.

That crying was for the public.

[Jay]

Possibly, either way, crying over missing someone after 7 days, or crying for the public....people have been telling me he's stronger and better than that.

All the housemates have left people behind, just gotta deal with it, did he expect a phone to the outside world?

Anyway, must really go now

[Milo]

So what is acceptable?
The housemates congratulate what Jodie's been doing,and to tell her she's the best person that ever appeared on Big Brother?
She's playing the victim yet she won't accept she started it all.

But he could be more diplomatic and sensitive.

The thing is Red, he's always been a brutally honest person. He was infamous for that throughout the 80s. People would automatically think that he was asked to do the show because of the cosmetic surgery issue, but I think that was just a bonus for them. It makes a lot more sense when you think about the plethora of media articles linking Boy George with this year's show.

I was shocked initially by the way that he spoke to Rula, but he backed it up, too. And Rula certainly didn't seem to have a problem with it later on. It's much more about the persona than anything else, and once you think about it for a while, it's said in jest more than anything else. The waspish sense of humour takes a little time to get used to, but it's seldom meant in a truly malicious way. So it may not go down very well with some, but it's the reason why he's there in the first place.

You've got to take some of posts with a pinch of salt though.

I am a psychologist/pyschotherapist, whatever you want to call me and I do 'use' Internet areas for research.

I guess i'm quite 'perverse' in that way, enjoying peoples reactions.

It's all good to me, it's not like Jodie or Pete or anyone actually cares what a very small corner of the internet thinks anyway.

If that's the case, then this thread needs a gritting lorry.

I'm sorry, but this is the second time (to my knowledge) that you've made reference to this, and I have to say that I don't believe you for a second. Numerous things give it away; the vocabulary, the complete absence of any professional terminology (everyone drops in a little 'shop talk' from time to time, without even noticing more often than not), the failure to rationalise opinion above the level of petty put-downs, the 'I'm bigger than Dennis' ('my dad's bigger than your dad' in alternative packaging) scenario, etc. And even if it were true, do you think it affords you any kudos here? It really doesn't; not one iota, in fact.

I think 'troll' is the most fitting terminology. You basically slate Jodie in certain topics, and then come into threads like this looking for someone to rile. Tanser is a character all right, and I seldom agree with anything he has to say. But I like him because he's a character. He can infuriate at times, but he means nobody any harm. I'm glad he went to bed when he did, so that nobody had the pleasure of seeing him get into trouble.

And just to correct a little misnomer from earlier in this thread - a sprinkling of smilies fools (every conceivable pun fully intended) nobody.

Okay folks, closing this thread because we're here to talk about the housemates and the show, and not each other.
