I have to say (and I've said it here many times) that I'm two faced!

I can say stuff about people that is quite spiteful and a minute later talk to them like they're my best mate.

So some of the stuff that people on BB have been saying behind other peoples backs has made me question my own "horrible side". In fact my friend wholeheartedly agreed with me when I said that if I was in that house I would be shown up to be a complete and utter bitch!!

I think I'm going to try and be more tolerant of others ... of course it doesn't help that I'm cursed with an observational nature!

I wouldn't say I was a bully (cos I'm not at all) but I am two faced and some of what has been called bullying on this show is really two facedness (ie. Jo and Danielle either muttering under their breath or having a private nasty convo about others).

Would you agree that what you don't know about what others are saying behind your back can't hurt you? Or would you say that if you can't say it to their face don't say it at all?

yeah, im guilty of something that wouldnt show me in a good light .... mainly the way i sl*g off my colleague to anyone who will listen.

She is irritating and annoying, and we will never be best friends .... but i shouldnt really talk about her behind her back.

I dont know if ill change though - cos she is THAT irritating.

I think thats the only bad thing i do though.

Same here, Bonnie and Dol. It makes me kind of uncomfortable to criticise someone for being two faced when I know Ive done it myself in the past.

I doubt anyone on here could say they havent though. It seems to be a human trait that is particularly unpleasant and that everyone does.

Yes, I suppose it does seem a bit hypocritical of me to post things about the housemates when I have guilty of being two-faced and saying things behind people's backs. ANd I have been guilty of following the crowd and doing things that I later regretted.

I think it is a human nature thing though, I mean no-one is perfect are they?

To be honest some of the things that Jade & co said in the house is a mirror of today's society.

In Victorian times people paid to have a laugh at lunatics in asylums for entertainment. We don't do that today, instead we pay to watch Big Brother. The trouble is if things get a bit uncomfortable there's an outcry and one of the players, in this case Jade, gets pilloried. I think that what's being missed here is that the whole thing including the public outrage is all part of the bizarre way people need to be entertained these days.

Put a dimwitted gob****e like Jade in a house, add a couple of like-minded trailer trashettes, throw in a spoilt indian princess, and what else do you expect? The programme makers know it, the performers don't care, they're being paid obscene amounts, and the public love it. Until it get's a bit too uncomfortable and a scapegoat has to be found.

Jade isn't the guilty one here, it's Endemol and the viewers. And as far as The godawful Davina goes - in most eviction programs she's there gurning and grimacing, rubbing her hands in glee as we see replays of contestants bickering, encouraging the crowd to bay for blood, all part of the show! Suddenly things get touchy, there are calls for the show to be taken off, suddenly Lady D gets all sanctimonious and puts Jade through the mill (to cries of 'Bravo!')

All a load of hypocritical shiite.

I have said it before in here and I will say it again - and I heard it elsewhere do i am not being pompous.

what other people say about you is none of your business.

keep close to that statement in life and you will not go far wrong.

I am not two faced but I can be confrontational and shout at people! I am not a bully though and would not gang up on anyone. :sly:
