Yes

No I do have a slightly rebellious streak, much worse when I was younger...That's part of the reason why I like Siavash he has turned the show on it's head, and glad that he has, whatever happens on Friday.

for 99 times out of a hundred the answer is Yes.

I answered 'no'- am generally law abiding, (clean CRB check!) but I am TERRIBLE at being 'told what to do.'

Sticking to all the rules could lead to a very dull and limited life.
Good judgment is required. Many rules are there for very good reasons obviously.
But it would be rather blinkered to never bend or break a rule.
(The law of the land is a different matter I think.)

I would never in a million years describe my 61 year old life as having been very dull and limited.

Depends.......

No I don't stick to rules, except where the inland Revenue & Vat peeps are involved.

I wouldn't break the law but can't stand officialdom in the broader sense, don't like being controlled, which is why I'd never going anywhere near anything like wanting to be in BB. Have never understood why anyone would want to go in there

Lol, I'm more of a rebel about some things than may be assumed heehee

I would stick to the rules in a game, or a sport, or competition.

And, obviously, the law!

David breaks other rules, like fashion rules.

Rules??? WTF BB has gone soft this year In past series, HMs would have been kicked out for less??? George Orwell will be turning in his grave.

You've got a lappy & one of them Dongle's ain't ya

I will stick to the rules to a certain point at which point woe betide anyone that gets in my way

Mainly, yes.

the majority of people stick to the rules, especially the law and order rules. but when it comes to a stickler for all rules then no the ones that carry a lesser offence are the ones that are often bent or broken.

Using the example of the BB house then the producers that make up the rules are not enforcing them themselves so this gives the green light for those with a rebellious streak to break them, they know they are not punished in a court of law and they wont carry a criminal record for their crimes.

people like David who says he abides by rules are usually the ones exploited in their work place.

It depends on what the rules were.

most of the time Yes, but as LL said it depends

I stick to the important ones

I abide by the law and if I am playing a game, by the rules of that game (except when I am losing, then all bets are off)

People who are a stickler for the rules evetually come un-stuck.

Take Rodrigo for example, i'm sure the rules don't allow for housemates to open fire exits and run about in the camera run. Or allow hm's to throw bottles in peoples faces.

Of course, then I can snaffle a few hundred if I am losing.

first of all, pointing out something that happened to Siavash and his father that led to a very long falling out is unfair being that we do not know all the details.

what if their fight is over an arranged marriage? what if Siavash's father wanted him to marry his cousin (many removed, of course) which happens a LOT in their culture? And what if Siavash rebelled and said NO? Would you blame him?

Rules are set by man. And those that set the rules have their own intentions. They might not always fall in line with your own thinking and especially, with everything happening in your life day to day.

Life is tough, things are thrown at you/me all the time. You have to do what's right for YOU -- not for 'the man'.

furthermore, honestly, DAIVD is one of the dumbest HMs ever on BB.

for him to prove that he'd jump no matter what, for BB if asked, was cringe-worthy.

HOW PATHETIC is he? He would!! He'd throw his own mother under the bus if told to do so. He's just proved that with his line of 'thinking'.

Funny thing is, he doesn't know HOW TO THINK. He's THAT dumb (and he can't even see it.)

Just for an instance do you think he was just referring to playing the game. Afterall that was what they were all supposed to be doing.
The point of BB is to obey the unseen authourity.

If I think the rules or laws make sense, then of course I`ll go along with them.

But if they don`t make sense to me or are made up by morons, they can go poke themselves.

Sometimes I`ll go along with the rules `tongue in cheek` just to keep the morons happy - depends how I feel.

No i do not. David is as dumb as a bag of bricks. He would do anything for fear of being disliked, fired from a job, banned, anything.

He tried to prove his worth by justifying his stance of principles just to rub it in the face of a man that was threatening him. In this case, the threat was Siavash's attempt to get everyone up for nomination.

David is a laugh. Not a funny one, though. a joke.

I have been rebellious when I was young and I do like that in a person but not in a way it affects others, I take it we are talking BB here yes it is fine to break the rules but not when you are thinking of yourself like Siavash does with disregard for others no it is not fine, and then keep doing it knowing others will be punished and you get off scott free all it does is show the person up for what they are completely and utterly selfish.
