Laura007 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 in yesterdays paper ther was nothing but big brother this and big brother that. YAWN. well i have found a fantastic way of saying what i think about big brother without even uttering a word. the poop tray is freshly lined with all the wannabe z list celebs that were on big brother!!!! i am now feeling very satisfied and smug. as you can probably tell im not a fan of the tv show, and yes, i dont get out much to find putting newspaper in the poop tray satisfying!! my whinge is now over, thank you for reading. toodloo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I love it!!! When we have newspapers (not that often, sadly). I search them for pictures of Posh and Becks and do the same thing!! Makes you feel good, doesn't it! I can't stand Big Brother either - definitely a good candidate for a dousing of chicken poo anyday! Good one, Laura!!

Popcorn Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Yes..good idea....reminds me of the time when Lesley said I should get myself in the Daily Mail for the ''me and my chooks'' story they were doing, then she could line her poo tray with me (only because the hens would feel relaxed in my company though eh Lesley?! (oh, has Lesley gone on jollies now?)) Thankfully BB has now ended, unfortuanlty it will probably be replaced with something equally as dull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KateB Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I think I must just be stupid because I just 'don't get' Big Brother - why, oh why, would anyone want to sit on their sofa watching several odd balls sitting on their sofa?? Just don't get it - must be getting old.... Don't get newspapers very often but I agree - great material for pooping on.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Well, they say everyone's a Voyeur (is that the correct spelling?) but if you find yourself sat on your sofa, watching someone sitting on their sofa....it's time to get a hobby and find some fulfillment (spelling again?) They all say they go on the show to find themselves. Now - that's the bit I don't get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 They all say they go on the show to find themselves I wish they loose themselves and soon can't stand it. Sorry to any fans just a matter of personal choices, it's not for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I agree with all of the above, didn't watch any of this years BB, don't even know who won in the end. And just how long was that show on for on friday? The children watched it, and everytime I went into the living room it was still on. I gave up and packed them both to bed before it actually finished . It did occur to me that the only BB I ever watched was series 1, caught a bit of series 2 but got rapidly bored with it, never watched it since. Is it a coincidence that series 1 included chickens I don't know when, or why, they got rid of the chickens, but they don't seem to have them any more. Shame. I'd much rather watch chickens scratching around than a bunch of no-hopers sitting around all day arguing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Well, Kate, just incase you need this bit of useless information (and I'm sure you won't) it was Anthony that won. That's about all I do know. I also watched the first one, and I was amazed at the lengths people went to for a bit of money. Didn't one guy pretend to be a newly-wed and then pretend they'd had a car accident where he tragically lost his pretend wife.....gosh, he must have had real trouble finding himself! Maybe he should take a leaf out of Trish's book and take up knitting thongs. Endless entertainment (sorry to bring knickers into the thread again ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Thanks for that Gina, even if I haven't got a clue about who Anthony is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lyndz Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Heya Im afraid to say I watched this big brother and got quite addicted . just thought id mention they had ducks in there on day and the housemates had to round them up like sheep etc. im glad its finished though because now i can spend more time playing with the extremously cheeky new puppy tilly ( who got quite a scare from mabel when mabel charged at her because she barked at them!)

Popcorn Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 There's just no scaring a determind chook is there! Glad you have unglued yourself from BB Lyndz! At least you probably found some comfort in the fact you were 'well rounded' in comparison! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I love anything to do with big brother....honestly, or television per se..you see, we don't have one! So, we can cut all conversations starting with; "Did you see...." stone dead with: "nope!".... Marvellous! Its amazing how many people we have met who can't talk about anything other than tv! Try it, go on, I dare you! Switch it off for a week: You'd be amazed at what you do instead!!
