Default An unimpressive gang

The presence of two or three individiuals with a modicum of resourcefulness and wit notwithstanding, the majority of the house's residents are, sadly, uninspired and slow of wit. Conversations are largely as sterile as a scorched earth landscape, the tattoo-sporting males are reminiscent of downmarket caricartures of Ray Bradbury's "The illustrated man" and even the backstabbers and schemers are remarkably inept at the only skill in which they will ever have a hope of achieving mediocrity. It makes one think fondly ob BB1's "Nasty Nick" who, by the standards of this lackwitted fraternity of weasels and bootlickers was a master of the trade and could lay claim to a moderately healthy complement of functioning brain cells. He should be feted to this day, rather than being denounced by the BB fundamentalists.
Most of this year's housemastes are uninspired and unentertaining, but if past BBs offer a meaningful guideline, one of them will, probably, gain the house crown or lay claim to reputational immortality. After all, housemates remembred to this day are the ghastly Nadia Almada, Nicky Graham and Jade Goody. Dysfunctional beings, one and all.

This has been pretty true almost every year.

But, no doubt that it's probably worse this year because they have to be so guarded and careful about what they say. One wrong word will unleash the wrath of the language police.
