big brother 09

[jaycad]

i knew something was niggling away in the back of my mind-then the suddenly the realisation (just like when you look at your bank statement and think 'oh,i've got a bit more than i thought',buy something you don't need and then realise you forgot about the council tax on the 6th!!) BIG BASTARD BROTHER!!! oh how we shall all be 'entertained' for the next few months by people who say 'i am who i am and i'm not changing for no one!' with their dyed pink hair/wacky dress sense/amusing catchphrase!! no-one can escape this abyss of 'eye plague',it will ruin summer,I AM GOING TO TRY AND BURN CH4 OUT OF MY TV WITH A PETROL SOAKED LIT COTTON BUD AND NOT BUY A BLOODY NEWSPAPER FOR THE NEXT 2 MONTHS!!! I BLOODY HATE THIS BRAIN MUSH!!!!!!

Good job my remote has a large off switch .... it's so much easier to remove programmes quickly from my TV screen.

This is where the dividend of not having a TV pays off - big time!



I don't have to hear about any of these people that I don't know (or would even want to know), doing inane things I don't care about, being thrust into my consciousness and told THIS IS ENTERTAINMENT!!!



The most exposure I'll get is the odd headline on the Telegraph website (easily avoidable) or the odd waffle on Wake Up To Wogan (bemused cutting remarks at best - well bemused to me 'cos I won't know who they're talking about).



£142.50 not well spent!

unfortunately i don't have an OFF switch for the daily star readers at work who will talk about BB during my lunch break-even seeing the BB headlines on other peoples newspapers is enough to set me off!!

i wish i had your willpower! unfortunately i have got myself into the routine where i have to have the TV on all night or i won't sleep! before 24hr TV i used to put on a video tape of 'haunted honeymoon' and wake up and rewind it every 2hrs -now i leave the news on but now they'll show excerps from BB! aaggghhh i bloody hate it!!

The only bits I like are when you are in on your own during the day or something and someone has left the livefeed on. Sometimes you get someone eating a bowl of cereal or something for absolutely ages and it is really loud in the mike and it is sort of compelling because they are not just eating a bowl of cereal, the cogs are whirring and there are these tiny things going on you couldn't get away with being that bold in watching otherwise. I watched it once and the person clearly worked themselves up in to a state of near terror during the course of this about something and then calmed herself down and carried on.

ive no intention to watch a second of this ,some older series that i briefly watched to see what the fuss was about had tasks that seemed to be designed to cause conflict amongst contestants .



one good thing about this site is nobody seems to be a big brother fan ,or moron as the word used to be known .

And I strongly advise people to avoid going to get thier hair cut at his time!



Aside from those atroshious magazines with the latest BB contestants (sadly, the stars of the future!), they try and temp you to read while you wait because they are behind, you will get asked `so who do you think will win this BB? And` What do you think of so and so (some idiot!)?When you tell them you never watch it and have never heard of who they are talking about, they will give you the run down!



Then the whole salon will join in and discuss each sado...opps contestant in detail and who hates who!



Haircuts? Get your other half to do it for now, or the kids, or the bloody milkman! Its not worth it!

I most definitely will NOT be watching this bull****....

Honestly, what sort of society is growing up thats thinks this is entertainment

This is not "entertainment", its just boring filth.....



"If there is hope it lies in the proles. If they could become conscious of their own strength, they would have no need to conspire. History does not matter to them"



By the way are we at war with Eurasia or Oceania this week........

Are they really the stars of the future? Leeds Library Service (otherwise known as my employers) occasionally buy biographies of these people - rush released, no doubt, while enough people can actually remember who they are - and they invariably stay on the shelves unread.



I wonder how many BB 'stars' are actually at all well-know now. The bloke who won the first series still has a TV career, but that's because he had real-world skills and was able to do DIY programmes.



Famous for 15 minutes, forgotten forever.

Well yes I know what you mean, I didn`t say it quite right, I think what I meant was that, well, put it this way, in my opinion the stars of the future are numskulls who come and go, that seems to be the pattern of entertainment these days. So, yes, famous for 15 minutes but thats the way our t.v personalities will be from now on I fear. Untalented and in mass production.

there was a centre spread in one of the crap newspapers under the heading 'where are they now?' and i'm happy to say i didn't have a clue who the majority were and most of them were back to their 9-5 jobs-albeit at a slightly higher level! (i was only reading through the crap paper because i grafitti them in a really immature fashion if anyone leaves them within my reach at work!!)

[faginsgirl]

Oh come on! When you see the what they`re going to be doing this time you won`t want to miss it! I believe I will am going to be an avid viewer!



What`s more, we can join in at home too!
