When that picture got posted, I thought the Mike Reed look-a-like was actually in my pc and was busting out by headbutting his way out of the monitor screen. I actually let out a 'gnyaaaaargh' and tried to steer my mouse toawards the cross in the corner, before the laptop I'm using tried to struggle with the image. The processor started to click frantically, like a miniature engine. *KKKkkKKkKkkkKkKKkkKKkKKKK*

Yep, I'm currently taking back everything I said about being disppointed in Kemal...
 
Posted by MiscellaneousFiles (Member # 60) on :
 
If you look up the term "harshed boner" in the Encyclopaedia BigBrothera, you would see a picture of Max-Well after hearing Camel's jibe.

Apparently he refered to Saskia as his "girlfriend" yesterday. Oh LOL with me.
 
Posted by MiscellaneousFiles (Member # 60) on :
 
Another of Camel's rather cutting comments was his mention of a "magazine deal" which obviously hit a vein. Max barely seemed to notice, but Saskia kept bringing it up...

"Magazine deal? What? Er... what do you mean?"

After he'd left the room, leaving TheSaskwell together on the bed, she said something along the lines of:

"Magazine deal? Stupid boy. What's he on about?"

...which seemed odd, because she's not normally inclined to disguise how much she likes publicity (what with all the fretting that "everyone who gets kicked out in Week 5 is forgotten"). Then again, that was her speaking to Team Saskia, so I suppose she's probably be a bit more open about it. Still voting Maxwell to go, though.

I'd like to see Kemal beat Maxwell's face in. Smash his tiny fucking teeth out of his slack, leering gob. Punch him and punch him and punch him until he was barely conscious then rape his bloody, toothless gumhole.

I'm finding out. It's not Heat so it must be one of these other magazines that tell lies. It's not the worst of crimes though. It's easy to adopt an accent, especially if people dopn't undertsand you so well and you have to (like in Kansas, roll your R's more). It's not like he said he was poor either.
 
Posted by New Way Of Decay (Member # 106) on :
 
It's a magazine called "New!" a self titled 'official Big brother magazine'

I assume it will have a name change in later years to 'That magazine thats been around a bit' which is slightly less zesty, of course.

Hah - someone left a copy of that at work, which lead to loads of baffled scientists leafing through it muttering but...I don’t understand...who is that...etc. On guy was particularly impressed with that thing where they have a photo and then enlarge a section of the photo to show the presence/absence of a wedding ring, holding of hands etc. Then he turned the page and was treated to a helpful close up of the implant scars underneath Jade Goody's breasts as she leaned over a sun bed.

The most puzzling thing was that it was about 80 pages long, and comes out weekly!

Or possibly it's the crushing weight of a wet Monday morning, expelling the last ounces of creativity and chattiness from our weary bodies.

But, for what it's worth, I think the temporary migration showed a somewhat arrogant attitude.

Makosi's always had something of a scattershot approach though, hasn't she? In the early days I remember her coming on to Science and Anthony to various degrees. I will own that a scattershot approach which could include Maxwell is probably a little to broad... although in order to keep liking her I'm going to pretend she was doing it purely to annoy Saskia, who will almost certainly be watching.

Fuhwuhweewuhalso, I had a poke around on the ‘lith and it’s guilty of the same chate and in-japes as here. I guess, they just have a lot of people who are really into the things they are into, so they write a lot more content.

Oh hand on, this is Holland, under sea level - we're fucked.

It's kind of hard to be a general discussion forum.

On the BB side of life did anyone catch what exactly Anthony was trying to say to Craig when he muttered drunkenly "I think Maxwell is more adjucted to as he works in Top Shop" as I was lost as a lost man can be ??

Yeah I was confused too, as he's supposed to be an engineer isn't he? The only thing I can think of, is that a guy I worked with last year was an engineer in retail and what he said he did all day was drive to the locations and fix the electronic tills.
 
Posted by H1ppychick (Member # 529) on :
 
To paraphrase Anthony's drunken mumblings - "I've never had a gayer for a mate before - I don't even have birds for mates as I always end up trying to shag them. Maxwell's more comfortable around gayers cos he works in a gayer's type of job (fashion)"

[Confused]

From the BB website:

quote:
23 year old Anthony is a 70s dancer from Newcastle
And we all know that MALE DANCERS are in no way at all gay. They'd never let a gayer be a dancer, there's a code.

quote:
works as a 70s dancer called Chico Importante from Puerto Rico and works with Scottish dance troupe Boogie Express.

Umm, need I say more ?

quote:
Anthony lives with his mother
Hmmmnn.

quote:
his grandmother irons his "pulling outfit" which she sprays with holy water
And also:

quote:
The trainee hairdresser's mum, Annette, was shocked when reporters revealed that her son was about to briefly become one of the most famous people in Britain.

She said: "I thought he had gone off on a dancing job in Scotland as he normally does."

So to sum up, he lives with his mum, he's a trainee hairdresser and a dancer who calls himself 'Chico Importante'.

And he thinks there are more gays working in Top Shop than in his chosen lines of work ? Why doesn't he just come out and suck Craig off, I think we all know a Craig, Anthony, Derek and Kemal four way choo choo train of bumsex is coming up very, very soon.

I think Anthony is just one of those sad little straight boys who lives with thier mum. You know, the type who will always use the phrase, "My mum does it like this", on his girlfriend, who will go to her friends and tell them that "I can change him"

Face it girls, if he's over 21 and has never lived away from home, you will have to be as good as his mum.

I did feel sorry for Craig, unrequited love is a bitter pill. But then I remembered his whiney voice, so fuck him.

Kemal is the typical, all talk no action. Most likely never had sex, with anyone except Malibu Barbie and Ken.

But it is the most entertaining BB yet, as I think they are all so vile they deserve eachother

"Yeah, hi...Mikee? Yeah, hi. I've just been looking at the recent Big Brother thread and I saw some of your comments.

Well see, what it is, is that we've had a lot of feedback from the comments you made, well one in particular. Oh you don't remember? Well not to worry. All it boils down to is that we've had a lot of interest in people joining.

Yeah I know, great isn't it? Well, to help us out, as you know you've been so forthcoming with suggestions, we'd like you to wear a uniform to help out with the task of joining everbody up. The first 20 members are going to meet up with you in person tommorow. Yes. Tommorow. I thought you'd be overjoyed. Well look, I'm busy here photoshopping a pair of Death Stars to Makosis face to punctuate her googley eyes. So we'll courier your clobber over from the seamstress and you're to meet the first 20 tommorow. Oh didn't I say? By the Thames. A shipping company. That's right it would be the docks. Excellent.

Yes, generally called "internalised homophobia". Here's a summary on Wikipedia.

Edited to remove nascent discussion about the above, which is pretty pointless in this context.

We certainly can. Myself, I'm expressing ennui at what I've read as a variant on the rather tired old Blue Oyster Club 'you'll get butt-fucked by predatory homosexuals which is the worst thing in the wooorld' thing. Of course, it's very possible that I've missed a more in-jokey subtext of the sailors/XXL stuff, in which case I apologise for seeing tedious borderline homophobia where none exists.

(Off-topic, have you ever been to XXL? It's really rather jolly, and renowned as one of London's most attitude-free clubs. They used to have 'take your mama' nights, when all these big beary gayers would invite their mothers along...)

Craig's sexuality is complex, equal parts intriguing and irritating. He's avoided making any definitive statements, and it's difficult to know why. He makes oblique reference to situations on the outside of the House which mean he can't talk as freely as he'd like to, but I can't help but wonder whether these are largely in his own head. His whispering to Maxwell and Saskia under the sheet, for example, wherein he stated that his parents didn't know he's gay (or did he say bi?) sits rather oddly with his previously complaint, in the first couple of days, that he's not gay but gets fed up with his parents constantly asking if he is.

His response to Sam's "camp" comment was disproportionate too. It's difficult to imagine that someone with Craig's voice and mannerisms working in a profession traditionally choc-a-bloc with gay men would be unused to people assuming he's other-than-heterosexual. Why the overreaction to "camp", then?

Craig seems quite inexperienced, sexually, and appears happier 'rough-housing' with straight boys than anything else; it's difficult to know whether this is because he desperately wants to be straight himself or whether it's related to his masochistic streak. He's certainly very keen on the idea of being a hardcore submissive. I think that's partly to do with his need to be babied, looked after, cared for. His idealised sexual experience (as voiced to Maxwell last night) was essentially him being utterly passive, while the other party undressed him, handcuffed him to a bed, blindfolded him, fed him, for fuck's sake. How infantilist is that?

His sexuality's a convoluted one, in the sense that it's apparently more defined by wanting to be a slave/servant/infant/object than anything else. By comparison, the stuff most people think of as 'sex' (sucking, fucking) seem to interest him little if at all. I do think he wants to be a slave etc. to males, though, so in that sense his could be said to be homosexual.

I'm quite surprised the hetboys have been so tolerant of Craig. It strikes me that their relationship with him is slightly anachronistic: it's the sort of straight/queer dynamic one might's seen 50 years ago, rather than today; Craig would certainly have thrived in all-male environments...

Yes you have, it was meant for a wider audience,I chose The BOC as I thought it was a better known "gay" bar than say, the Colherne. (although I found out about that in the Stranglers' song "Hanging Around").
I hoped that others on here would google it and find out, but thought it might have passed them by, thus killing a not-very-good-at-all joke.

I have been a few times, but I worked in the East End at a couple of "Clinics" where it had the nick name "STD" due to the alarming rate of STDs passed on in the Back Room (I saw 6 men with syph in one week, index case- XXL)


So I have a rather off kilter view of these things, I'm not homophobic, not at all, not even internally. I'm in a good, stable relationship, almost 15 years now.I wish other men that I see in my Gay mens clinic were a bit more honest, about thier relationships but that goes for both straight and gay. I do wonder how many of the partners realise they are in "open relationships".

Indeed. On a related note, have you been to see Matthew Todd's Blowing Whistles? It's pretty good on the whole "open relationship" thang.

Thas interesting indeed and I'm sure it's no coincidence. They seem to be so non-commital to show Craigs sexuality in any direct way other than lots of hints and contradictions. That's got to be planned, shirley?

It it were planned, wouldn't they have ommitted the comment in the first place? I agree that Craig's nebulous sexuality is likely one of the strands Endemol might've envisaged evolving within the House, but I suspect they're reacting to events as much as much as planning them.

I suspect Craig's never going to be explicit about his sexuality, and will develop into one of those faintly seedy forty/fiftysomething men who hang around boxing/athletic clubs, offering massages and 'practice wrestles'. While spending his weekends at Mummy Hazel's strapped up in an oversized cot, sucking on a giant cock-shaped dummy and shitting his nappy.

It's possible, but I'd say it's unlikely. He just doesn't act like a straightforwardly gay male whose sole reason for concealing it is a financial one; there really is something old-school about his apparently rather naive attraction to straight boys. The above theories are only as convoluted as Craig himself...

All very interesting, but frankly not bitchy enough. May I inject some girly hissing by saying 'just what is with that Orlaith, getting off with everyone in the pool then coming over all ice queen'? Hmm, girlfriend?

And what's with Vanessa, telling BB what had happened? Like BB doesn't have 745 cameras trained on the housemates' every pube.

And Science... 'ya get me'? Frankly, no. Enunciate, and try to have a point.

Yes, that all seemed a trifle pointless, didn't it? Then again, Vanessa did voluntarily claim to be the "wackiest and craziest" housemate, demonstrating an astounding lack of both irony and self-awareness.

She's the housemate equivalent of polystyrene.

I don't often have such hatred for people, but I think that I despise mediocrity so much that I would like to hurl Vanessa off a cliff for just being so fucking unimportant. Her chief contributions to life appear to be eating the food that no-one else has room for and TALKING IN HER FUCKING VOICE.

Actually, I looked back at that and wondered who elses voice she would talk in.

I've finally settled on a mix of one of The Fat Slags from Viz comic and Seth Green in Party Animal.

Dear Big brother,

I know anthony is muscley, but how is it possible his sperm is so muscley it could swim through water, into Makosis twat and become a child in three days?

In theory, right... You can spurt into an Olympic sized pool and your tadpolls could impregnate a wimmen on the other side of said pool.

Ofcourse, that's assuming that said pool is filled with fanny juice so that the man-torpedeos wouldn't die from chlorine or harsh pH levels.

Makosi strikes me incredibly dim for being a nurse... Wait... NHS nurse... Now I get it!

I assumed that Anfony and MyCosie had fucked. I know he said they hadn't, but he didn't seem to remember much of what had happened. And from her reaction, it sounds like there was more to it than a bit of a fumble and some super swimming spunky spurts. If that were the case, then couldn't Orlaith (Orla? Ola?) also be harbouring a microGeord? And Craig? He seems fucked-enough-up by his issues already. I hate to think what pregnancy would do to him.
 
Posted by Ganesh (Member # 685) on :
 
Well, I guess particularly viscous spunk could float around in those little gloopy strings for at least a few seconds before being denatured. And, as yet, the jury's out on whether Anthony actually did stick his Geordienob in Makosi's ladygarden: he can't remember, and she's high on melodrama.

But yes, one would expect Makosi to be aware that the morning after pill might be a tad more useful than a pregnancy testing kit at this point.

I think MyCosie had some moral or religious objection to taking the up-to-seventy-two-hours-after pill.

I watched BBLB today, I know I was gambling with my sanity, a holiday rep suggested Kemal would like a new age holiday because of his chanting. Colour me stupid but I thought this was a religious excercise for him.

They did have a not so nice Anecdote of the Day from Eugene from Eugene. Cue Silence-Cue close up of Euge's quivering lip. Now that's black comedy.

I just want to cuddle him and send him to social skills school really.

Not enti-i-irely sure. It'd depend on the chanting, I guess; with fantastical understatement, he describes himself as "unorthodox Muslim" but is also interested in Buddhism, and has done some nam-yo-renge-kyoing while in the House. So, uh, who knows?

[tone bothered]OMFG Maxwell/Anthony/Craig are talking out Craig's Anthony obssesion.[/bothered]

It all started with Craig asking Anthony to move his hand so he could see if he was wearing underwear- "I can see it I know".

Craig- Do you honestly in your heart of hearts believe I fancy you.
Anthony-No
Maxwell-You'd take what you could get though wouldn't you Craig?
Craig-I'm sick I'd go for you though Anthony.(joking)

Many a true thing said in jest though and Craig does think he's sick sadly.
Well okay he is sick (Butterfly in microwave) but just not in the way he thinks.

*From the Manchester Evening News:

quote:
Craig has spent his time in the house making tea for Anthony and Maxwell, and has been the butt of many laddish pranks, but seems quite happy in this role.

In fact the hairdresser from Norfolk has said he wants to live with the pair after the show has finished so he could look after them properly.

"I'd be like the gimp," said Craig. "I'd be allowed out of my box every now and then!"

Let us think here…

Week six: Ma-Cozy may or may not have had a bunk up with the dwarfish Geordie thick stick I guess we’ll never know.

NOW she says she might be pregnant.

Perhaps, and this is just a theory here but perhaps Ma-Cosine was already pregnant when she entered the house, she’s not slimmer of the year and wouldn’t look pregnant for a good three or maybe even four months.
She claims a bunk up with Anthony, she’d probably liked that claimed bunk up to have taken place in week four but didn’t get the chance due to the separation of the two groups at the time thanks to Saskia, but now Saskia is gone week six is as good as..

Now, who’s going to vote out a pregnant woman ? And even if they do vote her out, the amount of press attention and money spinning that can be wrought from 8 more months of BB pregnancy should set her up for a while, they won’t deport her if she’s pregnant either, think of the press furor if they tried to (Let’s not forget she’s breached her visa).

Thick as a stick dumpling Anthony is so dumb that he’ll buy whatever she says, and unless someone can get her to do a DNA match test then the baby just came a little early whenever it pops out..

Nobody can do maths these days after all and 4 weeks either way is 'normal'.

That’s a serious game plan to go into the house with.

Now Ma-Cozier is one hell of a game player and I suspect that this might just be part of the plan she’s had from the beginning.

Anyone care to comment ? Am I mad or might that be true ?

It sounds about right to me in terms of a pre-meditatedgameplan, but the scary thing is that no-one will shout 'bollix' at her testament. It's like thickos delight in that fucking house. I don't want Tea-cosy to win. I don't :cry:
She's nonsense in physical form.
 
Posted by Ganesh (Member # 685) on :
 
I think it's more likely that she isn't pregnant, but may carry on the charade for the reasons described above, finally claiming she's 'lost the baby' a week or so after exiting the House.

Classic statement last night giving evidence that they are now desensitised to the camera.

Makosi: ...but I won't tell the father.

LOL - let's just hope Anfony doesn't read Heat.

Anyway, can you imagine his eviction interview with Daviner, if MyCosie successfully keeps this matter from him in the mean time.

"Congratulations, Anfony!"

"Aye! I don't do so bad, like."

"You're gonna be a daddy!"

The only thing that could compel me to switch BB6 back on again would be Maxwell having his intestines sucked out by the pool filter, forcing him to chew through his own guts in order to save himself from drowning.

I'm not entirely sure how I feel about Craig being voted out you know into the general population maybe Endemol could be a dear and blast him onto some uninhabited planetoid or just leave him in stasis floating in cold dark space instead?

When he's been on the piss

Science is

Hardly the biz

A crapper

Rapper

Possibly

Could be

Crappest of them all

Cheers, Endemol

It's slightly perturbing

Not to say disturbing

To hear him talking

With Eugene gawking

At his borderline autistic clang associations

Verbal masturbations

Like this

(Piece of piss)

That are compellingly shit

Now he's trying to see the tit(s)

On Vanessa

Who's making a mess o'

Her previous claim

That Craig was the same

As every other member of Team Saskia

I ask ya!

She's up his arse

Like a corpse in a hearse

And all the while

Science asks Makosi if she fancies it doggy-style

(I think

I've had too much to drink

It's odd

But at this precise moment, Science is my GOD)

Freestyling?

I'm smiling

I'm becoming increasingly fond

Of Science, even though he reminds me of Crap Freestyling Woman out of 3 Non Blonde(s)

It's pretty rich

That Craig, who was previously Maxwell and Anthony's bitch

Is suddenly in with the "peasant"

It's unpleasant

How quickly his loyalties change

But probably not that strange

That he's kissing up to Science The Pimp

Given that he's a smeggy little gimp

Eugene's hard to rhyme, it's true

And I'm new

To this freestyling stuff

It's tough

Er than it seems

Craig dreams

Of Maxwell's departing butt

But

Despite being a masochistic little gimp-queen

He's not sad enough to fancy Eugene

Science is gonna regret

Letting himself get

This pissed

And having dissed

Derek to such an extent

The bent

Tory

Will doubtless get to hear the story.

Maxwell excelled himself in the final - best bit was when all the ex-housemates were seated except him, as he was doing some sort of 'loveable cockney monkey dance' and Saskia, having seen the approaching tv camera, tugged at his leg to make him sit.

You could just tell from her expression that she was counting down the seconds till she can trade him in for a Closer "Maxwell wasn't man enough" tell-all.

From Popbitch:
Spotted: Saskia and Maxwell eating burgers in total silence, Macdonald's, Surbiton last Saturday night.

I hope it is like that from them one long excruciatingly uncomfortable silence.
