I'll have a season of Big Brother thanks...

Low fat, no fat, full cream, high calcium, high protein, soy, light, skim, Omega 3, high calcium with Vitamin D and folate or extra dollop?

I just want Big Brother that tastes like OG Big Brother...

This season is marketed as OG Big Brother... And only 2% similar...

That's gold! Love it!

So accurate.

Excuse me? Speaking from experience as someone who struggles with burnout, daytime fatigue, excessive sleeping, and insomnia when being screened for Sleep Apnea testing asking about snoring is a near instantaneous question. She snores, also weight is a contributing factor for Sleep Apnea. No one here is trying to diagnose her, it’s speculation and there’s a massive difference between the two. For one speculation doesn’t require a medical license also in this case it does no harm. Seems to me like you just want to belabour a ridiculous point… Run along now

What questions are asked during diagnosis are irrelevant to my point. My point is that we can't assume she has sleep apnea because duagnosis is a specialist process undertaken by medical professionals, not armchair experts. I already agreed that we can speculate, and other people can question or critique your speculation and opinions. You guys seem to have an issue with that, including saying I have 'contempt' for her simply for saying her actions are not fair on others, and literally putting words in my mouth that I didn't say. So yeah, I'm going to belabour the point when you do that.

I watched the epiosde late last night (long after it had aired) and I have only just now caught up on the forums. Some good comments and assessments in here.

I am wondering if BB will fail them on this task because the staff, who are supposed to not have luxury, have been drinking secretly stashed coffee and eating Tim Tams. It would be intersting if that does happen, and then we can watch Coco (and Bruce who's "in the know" about the stashed coffee) denying it or trying to explain it away. I suppose we'll have to wait and see what transpires ...

I wonder if they'll just pass them for this week and whatever next week is so they can get the prize money up to $200K at least. It would look pretty underwhelming to award the winner any less.

People in Queensland haven’t learned to stay off social media during daylight savings yet? Lol

They don't understand how we can make the sun stay in the air for an extra hour, what makes you think they can understand staying off social media for an hour?

10K can go a long way if used wisely... think; nice overseas holiday, good used car, major dental work, new household furniture, pay down debts, etc.

I don't think Vinnie needs to spend it on dental work. He already looks like he has veneers they're so perfect.

Ok I'm just jealous.

I actually quite liked this episode and task. The music and editing style really is killing this show though. Sometimes it’s easy to see around and other times it’s painful. We didn’t need another recap half way through.

Too much is omitted which we’d actually have time for without “previously…” segments and excessive transitions. I don’t have any real Avid experience but could cut these episodes better than this.

Colin is still vile. I feel dumb after listening to him. “Blessington” ? Smh.

Is it safe to assume all rules are out of the window this year? Blatant noms talk in this ep.

I think, forgive me if I am wrong (and do let me know - I was also confused but arrived at this assumption ), but that was not really a recap, but following linear time; the housemates had to dress back into civies for the nomination results and they wanted to show us Abiolas meltdown after being saved. Then I assume that they went back to the hotel task?

(via the live stream)
Emily just orbits around Allana non-stop like a lost puppy dog, Coco thinks the sun shines out of Allana's arse, and now Abiola's become another loyal servant of Allana after she saved her from eviction (giving Allana foot massages, etc.).

Allana's like a witch building her army of minions, and subtly planting seeds of doubt in everybody’s mind through casual conversations. Masterful manipulator.

Such Allanealousy

it’s just we don’t have time for crap.

Yep yet the current production want to waste 10 minutes on the house saying good morning to each other every episode. The pacing remains so off balance.

1) No, it isn't a specialist process. You know nothing about it, and have plucked some facts off google to back up your preposterous stance.
2) The word contempt was a general term covering both you and your buddy. (I would say "lazy toad" displays contempt.) But the fact you are so doggedly (woof) insistent that she cannot possibly have sleep apnea, and nobody could possibly know if she might - and if she did it would have come up in tests pre-season by production (as if) and yet is a very serious specialist diagnosis simultaneousy! - suggests you view her as merely lazy. Which suggests contempt.
3) Bitch, please. You began belabouring the point on page 11 of this thread and have hammered away with a variety of word salad ever since.

Popping you back on ignore in 5,4,3,2,1.
