Mikkayla Appreciation Thread

She has proven nothing, I'm afraid. I have argued my point re: Mikkayla many, many times, I can't be bothered repeating them again.

I don't believe I ever presented my point of view as being factual. Just an opinion.

I like the passive aggressive nature of your rebuttal though, there is a certain, charming naivety about the way you choose to try a belittle me. Thanks for that.

You keep saying mikkayla has created this cool group and misfits, even though it was already decided in the first week there was that division created. You have not come across as saying this as an opinion, but as a fact. But that's my opinion ;)

I don't want you repeating your point, so that's fine, I have read them, and I respect that it's your opinion.

I was not trying to belittle you btw. I would like to clear that up. I was being a smart arse though, repeating what you said. It obviously did not come across that way but I can't help how the structure of words is going to be interpreted over the net. So for that I'm sorry.

There's no doubt the producers are mostly responsible for any divide in the house, but she certainly seems to spend a lot of time pointing it out to the less astute (read: more sheep-like) housemates. Good on her for being manipulative and all that, but she is not as smart as she thinks. My problems with Mikkayla, as you well know, are more to do with the fact that I don't think she's very likable or very intelligent (certainly not as intelligent as she makes herself out to be).

All I can say is she is very lucky to be in a house full of people who aren't very perceptive. I think she's heading for a fall though, and, when it comes, its going to bite her quite hard.

I can see why many don't like her. Tbh, she does bark orders at times and is bossy and does come across as a know it all. So yes they are not the best traits when looking at the surface. But at the same time it makes her a pocket rocket, she adds a charm and cuteness to it. She is direct and doesn't take bullshit. She is small but it is inspiring to see her have the strength of the biggest man. So whilst the qualities you see as bad, for me underneath it I see so much more.
 
It's all about liking Mikkayla here folks. Like like Likey

So let those fingers dial and vote to save her for the fake eviction and see the reaction. I like Mikki more and more I don't care she's bossy. She has to stand up for herself, but she lacks self confidence which compensated by the assertive nature. She doesn't rate herself against the other girls so any little win she can get is going to be good.
She is first to put her hand up for tasks etc and tries hard in all the weekly tasks and showdowns. Her real eviction time will come but lets keep her there longer than the meat heads and fakers because she is good tv , Vote to save Mikki
 
Mikkayla is probably annoying to live with, but I appreciate her low threshold for bullshit. That and some of the comments the other HMs made about her weight were grating as fuck. So she gained weight big fuckity whoop. Who cares if she's a fat ass or not, at least she's not a complete waste of oxygen like Ed.
 
What I don't like is we hear the other HMs complain about her bossiness more often than we even get to see it... If it's such an issue, why aren't people calling her out on it? Ed and Matt should not bitching... Mikkayla's as bossy as you two are as tools.

Do you realise that pretty much since the get go, the "cool group" has been targeting her at any chance they get and despite being saved numerous times, they have nominated her time and time again. And when she won the showdown, there was absolutely no support coming from any of the HM's bar 2 or 3...Dont care how you feel that's just putrid and poor sportsmanship. Lastly I'll point out that while Tahan was on the hotseat thing she said "I'd take Mikkayla...ONLY because I think I can beat you" that is extremely rude and harsh, and essentially is why Mikkayla has nothing to do with her now.

There are many reasons that i can see as to why people won't like her, but to be fair she has copped a lot of shit in there and is for the most part, justified in what she does.

And that is our major point of difference. Where you strength, I see pettiness. Her "charm and cuteness" is just flat-out annoying to me. Each to their own I guess.

Nominations are part of the game I'm affraid. Sure, she might get targeted, but then every housemate gets targeted for various reasons, that is the point after all. The reason she has constantly found herself nominated is due to her attitude. The same could be said for Tahan and Tully. The point is, she clearly is annoying to a lot of the housemates, otherwise she'd find herself nominated a whole lot less.

What Tahan said was her opinion. And to be honest, there is no reason to believe she's not right. It's not disrespectful at all, just a statement that Tahan considers to be fact. At least she was honest about it. She has no reason to believe Mikkayla is at all popular on the outside because she has only faced the public vote once. Tahan on the other hand has faced it and survived many more times. Therefore Tahan is evidently more popular amongst the public than a lot of other housemates. In her mind, it's a simple matter of thinking that surely the Australian public would recognise Mikkayla's bossiness and bitchiness as terribly annoying traits. In a choice, between the two, Tahan feels that she is the more likable person and that has nothing to do with looks or any other such nonsense that Mikkayla continuously brings up.

Remember, we are only being given a snippet of what happens in the house. Who's to say, that given full access to what happens in the house, you wouldn't yourself find Mikkayla annoying and unlikable?
 
There were a couple of times Mikkayla only got up for eviction because of a measly 3 points, which was mainly from Ed. So everyone isn't nominating her every week.

Yea it is part of the game, But it's always the same group nominating her, and in some cases, only one of them nomming her has been enough to see her up.

As for the Tahan comment, you can see it as honest and calling a spade a spade, but what about Mikkayla being on the seat earlier? stating that Tahan and her piss each other off because they are so tight and alike. to follow that with "ONLY because i think i can beat you" ..come on, you gotta see that as a bit harsh lol.

You're right, my opinion on any of the housemates could and probably would be different given more access, but I can only form my opinion on what I see.

Yeah she's just annoying to the boring and self absorbed foursome of Tully, Tahan, Matt and Ed. She seems to get along fine with everyone else.

Yes, a little harsh, but that's hardly a crime. And, perhaps, because they are such good friends (according to Mikkayla) perhaps she felt like she could be honest. Isn't that what friends do?

As for being the same group each week, perhaps that's because the same people are annoyed by her every week. Some people just don't like other people or are annoyed by other people and there is nothing that can change that. Indeed, I'd imagine in the Big Brother house, when you are stuck with these people all the time, relationships are probably only going to get worse, not improve. Those things that annoy you straight away aren't suddenly going to become endearing.
