Default Did he say 'sea of cretins'?
When talking in the DR about performing in front of the audience outside?

I missed what he said properly, can anyone confirm or correct?

Another Ben supporter showing his colours and why he connects with the arrogant tosser.

I am starting to think that our choice of HMs says a lot about our own natures.

Does anyone actually know?

Just that it seems all the Ben supporters seem to have a very low opinion of, and look down on, the 'masses'.

I wondered if that was part of why they connected to him.

No i like him cause he is a bumbling fool, i'm not a posh tory if that is what you mean?

I don't look down on the masses but it certainly seems the majority of the BB eviction audience are morons. Apologies if you go or something, well not apologies but i don't mean to offend anyone.

I am sure calling the majority of the followers that bother to go and support BB live 'morons' won't be taken as offensive. Why would it?

But nah, I don't go myself.

I don't think many people on the forum go. And yes i do think it is a bit extreme going all that way to boo someone or make a sign that says "get sunshine out". Seems a bit silly to me and i'm not an elitist looking down on the masses, they're is more of them than me so i'm in the minority and i'm in an equal position to them as a viewer so it is fair.

They're a BB audience, they're hardly going to be the scholarly, rational and mature type.
