I don't think I have ever gotten upset about anyone saying negative things about tahan, unless it's in a completely disrespectful over the top way. In fact I know I swallow my pride and agree when she does wrong and have always done so. In fact, i agreed that I'm glad she hadn't won, and that she does need maturing when you said it. actually, just yesterday or the day before when tahan was being talked about here about her tweet responses, i agreed that she was not doing herself favours and also said that she isn't as savvy and insightful in approaching social media, so I'm not sure why you would think id bet upset by it. So if you want to post something negative about her, then you can, this is not an appreciation thread after all.
I didn't mean it like there was anything wrong with your response to criticism to her. I know you're very reasonable.
I meant it like I don't like saying bad things about her because I genuinely like you and I wouldn't want to upset you in any way. We both know we can post whatever we want, but it still doesn't mean I like doing it.
Heh. I really should just quit while I'm behind...
Tim a plain Jane? What the actual f*%k?
Did you see her wallpaper ? lol holy fish fanny batman
never fear I am NOT going to post the latest pair of pjs!! (I am boycotting pictures of Ben in his pjs because I'm just over him altogether now ... and only posted the above because I hadn't realised he'd be at the Arias until now ...
so far Jade, Tim and Ben definitely going ... Rose between 2 Thorns ...
Can't wait to see Tim's costume though!
now I really AM going to bed!!!

Oh lol. Well just so you know, I'm ok with being upset with what you have to say about tahan, I'd be upset more and annoyed that I made you feel you have some kind if obligation to behave around me. Tahan is a bitch, you and I know this lol. I was and am annoyed that you didn't freely say what you want about her because of your loyalty. Don't do jades friends in the house who can't express what they really think

Did you or [MENTION=31088]Insomniac[/MENTION] think she might be a guy? I read some of the other tweets and coupled with the wallpaper, I'm leaning towards a male…not that that makes any real difference I suppose. I feel old too.makes me feel old .. soo old .... I just cant imagine anyone really thinking that is a good idea!?

Ahaha don't worry. It's not like I have some deep hatred for her that I'm not letting out. It's more like if she does something that bugs me (which I won't lie - she has been quite a bit since the end of the show) I'll just think carefully about how I express it so it doesn't come across as too offensive. No big deal

I'll try not to hold back in future though

Oops double post.
I guess what I'm trying to say is to try not to let one interaction colour your view of everyone in here. Or not even of that person necessarily because really I haven't seen anything linger as they used to in other threads during the show. Everyone just seems to say their piece and move on so I can only assume that what they said was as much of a lazy cheap shot as some of the passive aggressive said tonight in the JA thread. It makes me quite sad that both you and [MENTION=31088]Insomniac[/MENTION] have said that you don't feel wanted here mainly because the point you made about discussing everything and anything is what makes me love you both from months ago. We didn't just gush about Jade when I was one of her biggest fans, or argue about her when I went off her, or chat about her again when she won me over after Ed left the house and now that she's out of it. We discussed all of the HMs and that's how it should be in here.Thanks for that. I really do appreciate your response even though it's kinda hard not to take that as some people's intentions when we have actually been told to piss off or "get back to our own thread"...especially when Jade wasn't even being discussed. I think it effected people like myself and [MENTION=31088]Insomniac[/MENTION] the most because just weeks ago we were discussing everything and anything with everyone and now we're suddenly getting told to go away. It's a weird feeling.
Just as an aside, I get what you mean with your last point. I know I'm starting to avoid saying what I really think about certain HMs more and more. I'm very careful about what I say about Tully or Drully here, I watch what I say about Ed in the JA thread because there's a few new users who are big Ed fans on there, I don't like saying negative things about Tahan because I don't want Sweet_Geek to get upset, etc. I don't think anyone likes having to tiptoe, but at the end of the day someone is always going to get offended unfortunately.
Edit - never mind - I get what you meant now.
But yeah, I definitely understand about the feeling of having to self-censor in here. Especially if you know someone you adore is a fan of a particular HM and your opinion might irk them. It's strange, no? Especially since we're all really strangers and yet concerned about hurting someone's feelings? I find myself not posting about Jade and Ed - even much of anything positive because it keeps getting miscontrued (although you did have my back last time when I was on kindy duty that day so thank you!!) and I can't do the 8 posts explaining myself for every one thing I say because other than the other night, even Ed hasn't done anything to warrant a negative comment from me if I were posting freely - and there you are afraid to post about others. So we're both hooped! It really shouldn't be like that because just personally, some of the negative comments about Tim for example I not only often agree with but they give me reason to think so I can only assume they'd do the same for fans of other HMs and beyond that, the whole point of being on a forum is to share our opinions especially as this isn't nor ever was an appreciation thread. Maybe we just need an understood disclaimer that just because we might not like what a HM says/does/wears/whatever at one particular moment that doesn't mean we detest them and it's especially not intended as a dig at the people we know on here are big fans of that HM. Then again maybe that's just easy for me to say as I like so many bloody HMs now I've got myself covered that someone will post something nice about at least one of them on any given day haha
Just stick around girl. xo

Good!
On a side note, don't take offence if I come with a sword and shield to fight for tahans honour

Who am I kidding- ill be agreeing that her obnoxious behaviour is stupid, but for a reason I can't explain, ill probably state that I still like this girl. I have to smh at my own judgements sometimes
It's this one. Not sure who'll be there though.Does anyone know anything about the HM Christmas party?
Just see this tweet to Ben [MENTION=29257]Ben[/MENTION]FromBrisbane please tell me you'll be at the BBAU Xmas party on sat nighy

I thought maybe Tahan would be there but it's hard to tell from this as I don't think she'd be flying out after.
Tahan Lew Oh thank you gorgeous! I will let you know when I am in brissy next! I am on the GC this coming weekend at dreamworld but that is only for the day then I am back in Melbourne xx
She really just needs Tully or even better an unbiased 3rd party media pro to sit her down and explain the ins and outs of social media. My boss always makes people working on our stuff sign a thing with two conditions (amongst many stupid other ones lol) that basically says: 1. If you Google yourself and even worse click links, you're allowed one chance to cry/complain about it. After that = No sympathy. 2. You do not sledge a peer publicly.Good!

I don't really think she was doing #2 in so much as she has just been trying to say "hey, I'm not the big baddie that I've been portrayed to be and they're not all innocent angels" but there are ways to achieve that result without coming across negatively. She's a young girl... she'll learn.

That sounds like fun ... For $150' there would better be a decent bar
Forgot to say - I'm really curious what's going to come out of this: "Nine Network Director Of Development Adrian Swift said there had been more companies interested in Tahan Lew-Fatt than any other housemate "by far"."
She hasn't done anything other than Ch 9 stuff yet like several of the others have and hasn't even been involved in the whole promoting clothes, etc thing. Even the Hooker Ball - even though I admit I was shocked before I posted it - I realised after that it fit perfectly in her wanting to go home to visit her family. David obviously has experience with all of that so I wonder if she's keeping mum and not doing the stuff the other HMs have because she has something in the works.

Normally I would love to agree, but tahan is not someone who can stay quiet. Unfortunately, i think she would speak her mind even with a team helping her. She is one of those people. But I can agree (thankfully- because I need an excuse to defend her lol), that maybe she can learn the art of how to get better results.
I don't think it is #2 either. She just lacks expressing herself with a filter. Actually,no. She sucks big time at expressing herself. I do hope she learns very quickly though- girl has potential with her deals she was apparently offered.there is only so much times she can say she is being misunderstood.tully aced this side of it to gain back some respect.
