that also explains the last 10 years (or more!) of pop music...

Re: The anti-Big Brother 6 thread

i managed to miss it and glad i have, even celebrity love island and the farm i despise all this reality tv, why would anyone want to watch a bunch of people do practically nothing but be put in to an area and be given 'time alone' or stupid tasks.

arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh...

Re: The anti-Big Brother 6 thread

I've decided to take the difficult step of unsubscribing from this thread ... seeing as it appears to be frequented by closet BB watchers, rather than those who indulge openly over in the other thread ... :p: :D

TBH I cannot be bothered with BB to such an extreme degree that I don't want to talk about it at all - not even about how tiresome it has become. So I'm off. :)

Well it's week 6 and for some reason, it has not been so bad this year. Not in terms of entertainment, but in trying to avoid it.

I have managed to ignore it without any trouble. Other years, everywhere I seem to go, it was there. From people talking about it at work to it being mentioned on the radio.

Unless I have just become immune to it.

Anyways...it has been better this year. :)

Can I develop a anti big brother weapon, it is constructed of a giant jet plane, with 500gallons of highly flammable petroleum, and me throwing a petrol lighter ontop the "house" while they are in it.

Re: The anti-Big Brother 6 thread

Is this heap of steaming **** that passes as entertainment in some people's eyes over yet?

Has it finally been cancelled along with all the other 'reality' TV shows as people have finally realised what a load of b******s they all are and stopped watching?
