I don't agree with it, but it's all over Facebook.
Most people seem to think it's bullying.

Oh that's no surprise Vanessa .
Facebook has some of the most awful and toxic people imaginable.
I avoid even looking on it.
Gross.

I'm surprised at how many people think it's bullying.
Didn't they see Mickey and Jojo hugging at the end?

He probably didn’t even know who was hugging him .. he may have put on a smiley face to cover any embarrassment - at being made to look so foolish

Yeah, but apart from your friends it's ok, right?

It’s not bullying because she clearly isn’t hoping to harm or intimidate him with a little dress-up.

If you wanted to drive the ‘Jo Jo is mean to the homophobic man who implied he’d tie her up to change her sexuality’ train - I think an ‘unkind prank’ would be the last stop. But even that is a stretch.

See your take on what happened a few days ago is quite ridiculous so we will never agree on this point .

Tell me you would be happy if that was your old father being made to look ridiculous

I await your reply …

Its not bullying...it was a bit mean imo. Its clear he struggles with issues, onset of dementia maybe or just taken too many whacks to the head. Its like watching the behaviour of the great Mohammad Ali in his later years. Personally I would not have done it...I would have felt like a mean girl but maybe she wants to be mean girl if she still harbours what he did the other day.
However, he took it really well and found it funny so fair play to him.

Or maybe she just knew he would ok with it, like he thought when he said what he said about her.

I’m thinking pure unadulterated malice or simple and satisfying revenge whilst getting even more screen time

They have grown very fond of each other. You can see them chatting and having a laugh on the live feed.

Pure unadulterated malice? Seriously?
You are given JoJo far too much credit there and it's a little over the top to say pure malice. That's worse than saying it was bullying behaviour. He found it funny....what's the problem?

Maybe....they seem to have bonded now.

He could also be playing the buffoon? He could have tasked himself to play a role just to pass the time

Shame on Big Brother!
Mickey is 72 years old,as mentioned before,with mental health problems, memory problems and balance problems, sue to his long career as a boxer,as we all witnessed. For him to be subjected to the same tasks as the the younger ,healthier contestants was disgusting,in particular, giving him only the worst seafood ever to eat, and subjecting him to very little food. Withholding food from a person, is deemed cruelty, especially a 72 year old man. Because of his age and health issues, he should have been giving the same privileges as Trisha. I'm not saying that Trisha didn't deserve a private room,of course she did, but Mickey should have too. His age and health and mental problems were never even considered. Big brothers treatment of Mickey is disgusting ,bordering on cruelty. His housemates tolerance of him wasn't much better. He is an old man, with mental problems,of course he is going to come out with some phrases that in this day and age are intolerable to some people,( Because anything offends anybody these days, we've turned into a bunch of lightweights.) . Mickey is old school, and he's an old school flirt,. If anyone has ever worked in a nursing home, they would know that elderly men are notorious flirts, a sad way to regain their youth,and of course he doesn't know about how to refer to certain people or what to call them in polite society now, as he hasn't been a part of society for so long,so people should be patient with him, like they are they're grandparents . In no way should Mickey be punished for being a mentally ill old man. He's a legend,treat him the way he deserves to be treated with respect.

So I am not allowed to share a deadly serious opinion on something seen on a reality show without being mocked by a MODERATOR.

Is that where we are at now


We all see and experience events quite differently ..

I watch all these youtube clips showing people having accidents , clearly getting hurt and I cringe and my heart sinks , my stomach churns … other people think the clips are absolutely hilarious
