***Titter Tis***   OH is not allowed to comment on BB cos I know he is only doing it to try and join in with me......but I don't try and join in  with his football and all other sports under the SKY!!!!!!!! 

Possibly. I don't know any (straight) men in real life who watch it. Before I found the forum I would share my views with some of the school run mums, my gay friends and my hairdresser. 

Mr. Cosi doesn't understand it at all.  Whereas I understand the off side rule. 

I think he's just jellus.

True Prom.....Just had a think about it......just cos my OH tries to placate/annoy me, by trying to  sound interested in BB, does'nt mean that you should'nt come out......my OH is itching to come out, but..............It gets on me nerves when he keeps asking for an update........I don't ask him about "The Offside*, or whatever its called rule do I?.....no.....

hahaha same here. I understand (and enjoy) some of my old man's stuff but he has no interest whatsoever about Celebs and Wannabe celebs. He finds it insipid, which is what I find appealing about really. I've never had to over analyse BB.

Syd..!  You mean you actually let him in the same room when BB's on?

I throw everyone out of the kitchen, get my favourite seat, drip feed myself with coffee (and fags) and LOCK the door.  If anyone's hungry or thirsty - tough!

Can't be doing with any distractions or chit chat.

Oh, and I make him answer any phone calls...

Suzy

PS.  I'm only horrible for an hour.  Once the show's over I revert to Mrs. Nicey Housewife.

***Rolls eyeballs*** he has to walk past me in the kitchen to retire......I often have to smile sweetly while BB is on and hope he is to tired or does'nt notice it is on.........annoys the bliddy hell out of me when he takes a sudden interest on eviction night and talks through it asking me who will go.......

Or asks me who might win..........Just so he can place a bet.....***rolls eyes***

Cosi  It was always something to sit down to with a cold glass of something for me. I'm more of a highlights rather than a live feed person and it wasn't until I joined the forum that I saw just how much I was missing. The forum was good for filling in the blanks and having a little banter.

So much hate for men who like BB on this thread. I might have to phone Ofcom, if they haven't closed down since BB went off the air.

I don't hate men  Prom.....I just hate being interupted when watching BB......OH hates it when I butt in when watching football, or turn the results on before he has seen the match....... 

Well I like BB and football and they happen at diffrent times of the year Don't know why the op would call other male BB fans losers though when he likes it himself why not just say nothing if not brave enough to admit it. After all he effectivly called himself a loser

I have to admit I have never confessed to LUTting to my mates but both my male and female friends know I like BB. I just don't think they would get it if I told them not only did I watch it I typed it out as I did.

I have to say I don't know why anyone would want to do that either - unless they were insomniacs or something...

You are a people watcher neil......nothing wrong with that....if you enjoy it (as I do) carry on watching and Luting xxx

Couldn't do live feed for too long, Suze but I do love the highlights show - and the thread that comes with   I rely on other FM's to fill in the blanks as well.  They're a patient lot is all I can say.

And Neil's just reminded me how handy the LUT is at times too

Right, I must away to my pit and catch up on the sky+.  Night all. x

Funny thing is I am up till 4 or 5 am every night so I guess you could say I am but it is more fun than it sounds.

Because they can, and because we peeps that need sleep in the early hours, appreciate waking up and reading the posts of those that stayed awake..................

I didn't call other male BB fans losers at all, just stated how it's stigmatic for men to actually admit they like BB. Seriously, learn to read.

Read a book

Nite nite Cosmo.....xx

Em I can read fine you posted

"I posted too saying BB? OMG what a loser, then went back to C4 to post unspeakably insulting comments aimed at my least favourite HM at the time "

So did you or did you not post saying BB? OMG what a loser?

Do that too..and a newspaper, and a recipe, and my stars!.....

To be fair, on football forums I read, often if someone posts about cricket, golf or rugby, they'll get a few comments of the nature "Who gives a f**** about [cricket/golf/rugby] it's a poofs' game". 

Football forums are the last place to mention BB, as it's seen as a bit effeminate by the more knuckle dragging Danny Dyer wannabes who pride themselves in machismo and misogyny.  Football forums are definitely the worst for adolescent trolling and troll baiting.  

I never post on but I do lurk on Norwich City's "Wrath of the Barclay" forum, and that really is full of adolescents calling each other the 'c' word and posters baiting each other.  However, sometimes the banter can be quite witty or insightful.

I have to say, Prom, I don't know why you felt the need to slate someone for no other reason than to be down with the board.  Be your own man! Like you are on here!

As for BB, football forums are a knuckle draggers' magnet.  You can bet quite a few of those posters who slagged off the poster who mentioned BB, were BB viewers themselves.

Of course I did, I was on a football forum. Mate, you're embarrassing yourself here. Go back and read my original post again.

Knitting?

Maybe a little embroidery? 

BB's the least of my worries  

I think Prom was being lighthearted.. as in not overly serious. Well thats how i picked it up anyway *shrugs*

Anyway, you lot have woke me up..i might have to read a book to get back to sleep.

LOL, I thought it was hilarious. You don't see the irony in that then? And yes I'm fully aware that some of those whom protesteth doth protest too much to me it was just highly amusing. Ironic and sarcastic.

I'm amazed that escaped you.

Can knit and embroider....

YAWN!

Infectious. 

I am worried Syd.... you need a hobby....

What about flower arranging?

Ok fair enough, I got that bit wrong and misinterpreted your motivations.  It did escape me.

As for the skeleton in the closet, not really, I know blokes who like to chat about BB and hate football and vice versa and those who like both - although usually feel more comfortable about liking football than BB.

One time in a previous job I remember a senior manager, on hearing that I watched BB, take the trouble to walk around the tables to explain to me why BB was for the brain-dead.  It was really water off a duck's back, but it did amuse me that some people (usually blokes) take such pride in absolutely hating BB and imagine that it's an intellectual badge of honour to do so.

No I like making pink floppy teddies........

Not that it matters but you tell me I can't read and you never called them losers. Yet when I point you to the part where you did, I am embarrassing myself. I never said you did it here. But why do it on a football forum why not simpley say nothing.

To be fair, I do not think that the viewers are intellectually challenged - we know this from the people on here. But I have to laugh when the people that say this, then happily admit in the next breath to watching every soap on the TV.

I HATE soap operas  but wouldn't even presume to make a remark about the intellect of folk that watch them religiously.

We all do things that relax us in different ways.,..

I kind of agree neil3842, might as well say nothing, unless you're in a trolling mood.

 Neil - he was taking the mickey out of himself... the whole thread is light hearted, On the football forum it was probably the same.
