What does everyone see in Priya

Cute sequence of events you've got going there, perhaps Priyanka should TIME TRAVEL back to "THE OTHER WEEK" (probably a MONTH ago) and not "throw her under a bus".

Talking shit again I see. Hardly surprising.

Quick to call out Davids faults from previous weeks.

Basically all Priwankas fans are cut because david does not let her get away with such bullshit manipulation in this game and when he acts on it they bring out the feminism card. Reverse the tides and it is all hunky dory.[DOUBLEPOST=1415669704][/DOUBLEPOST]

Priya nominated almost everybody that week; it's survival, as she said. If we are going to time-travel, Skye nominated Priya early on. So they're even. Even Stevens, to be mature about it. I very much doubt either of them would care.

Obviously 'having your back' means different things to different people, but they're not twelve year old besties.

What do you call having your back in a game like this then? Strange logic

If Priya made such a big deal about David doing it to Ryan though then surely she herself considers nominating your friend to be one of the cardinal sins in the house. If she didn't think it was a big deal she wouldn't have made a deal about David putting Ryan up.

Don't get me wrong, I have no issue with Priya nominating Skye...but to then run around talking shit and starting rumours about another HM nominating their friend is a bit rich.

I loved what Priya did when she, Leo, Travis and Cat were in the sanctuary. When they got their ramen noodles (case of 6)...greedy Leo wanted to claim the 2 remaining ones

Wrong.

It was Travis that said Leo could have them. Leo didn't say was claiming them.

Besides which, surely the fact that he didn't negates her infallibility. ;)
 
If you like David because you believe he is the best strategist- he ain't. He truly believes that he is the Psychological Houdini of the household. All he does is flip his lid alot and be annoying as all hell. He needs to get back in his shell already.
 
I think the problem with Priya for a lot of people is that her personality, strategy and general behaviour in the house is very subtle. Only certain types of audiences fully understand her intentions - the rest just dismiss her as either boring or a bitchy gossip.

Unlike Tim Dormer last year, Priya - while she is very openly analytical of the house and its dynamics - does not explicitly verbalise her strategy to Big Brother or other housemates. Hence, people have speculated about her friendships and interactions - and we need multi-faceted housemates like that who will evoke some type of thinking.

She has a very different approach. I think a lot of Priya's fans would know what I mean by this. This is why we find her so compelling - we always want to know more about her mind, and how she interacts with certain people. Even Priya's humour is subtle - none of it is calculated at all.

So when people ask "Why is Priya still here", I'd say that is why. With people like Aisha and Cat - while they may have had basic opinions and verbalised their true thoughts (You can take them at face value) - that kind of makes them less intriguing. Priya is truly a strategic woman. Even more so strategic than Dave - everyone in the house can basically tell what his intentions are (He is allied with Ryan, and is against Skye/Priya), but Priya is not as clear cut as him. So yea--I think an understanding of Priya as a game player is somewhat complex, hence why a lot of people dismiss her as overrated.
 
Humour is subtle? She is about as funny as aids. Possibly the most insignificant housemate of the last few years.

I don't think this is a fair thing to say. I say there's a lot of people here who are perceptive and can fully understand what she's doing but still aren't fans of it or her. Different strokes and all that. I don't really like the logic that anyone that isn't a fan of Priya just can't understand her.

Thank you. :rolleyes:

Speaking only for myself, she's not over my head. I actually just don't think she's subtle at all.

There is literally no logical reason for you to consider her an abomination. You've never known her to do anything truly bad. I wouldn't be surprised to find that your reasons for viewing Priya in such a negative light are rooted in racism or other prejudices, because there's nothing she's done that would warrant so much hate. If you think she's boring, fine; if you don't like that she can be manipulative or that she's 'playing the game', ok fine, that could be a reason not to like her; but to really hate her requires a much stronger reason.

Strike a nerve. Pretty tough taking the moral high ground on a forum about one throw away word that means fuck all in my context. Playing the race card. How original.

Well if you're not going to take ownership or responsibility of anything you say then eventually people will stop bothering to try to converse with you. :rolleyes:
