I.e. much the same as hatred of Justin Bieber.

Do you hang pictures of him on the inside of your wardrobe too?

No, they're on the outside!

(Not bothered about JB one way or the other actually).

But, I will bet that the great majority of those who dislike Jedward also dislike Justin Bieber.

I like Jedward but this is a weak argument. I find it very hard to believe that that's the reason why people don't like Jedward. As much as I like them, I can see why people would find them annoying.

Are you suggesting that's the only reason I like them?

See, this is why I love Niamh

she at least views things from different perspectives. Anybody who can't see why many would find them annoying must be seriously obsessed or deluded.

Jedward are rich, everybody is envious of them...blah blah blah!

change the effing record ffs. I can tell you for a 1000% fact Im not remotely jealous. Just pissed off that theyve hijacked a favourite show of mine and made it a total kiddy snoozefest.

And I can say hand on heart that I can't remember watching one single show theyve been in since XF. If they guest on a show I just dont watch.

InOne · 29-08-2011, 04:01 PM

Whenever Jedward fans can't think of owt to say they always go on about money and how we're "jealous"

It's a stupid argument and proves you defending them for the sake of defending them

They seem asexual to me

Why can noone ever dislike someone without being jealous?

Its a ridiculous argument that pops up year after year. Except usually its 'everyone who dislikes *insert random pretty but bitchy girls name here* is jealous'

YES! Pisses me off almost as much as "You only like *Insert Irish persons name here* because they're Irish."

Indeed.

And all the, for example 'all welsh people must vote for glyn'

As if people vote based just on where they come from. And if they do, its sad
