I live in Brisbane and I listened to the Ben segment this morning. They asked him about Apple, and [MENTION=35181]Mrs Butterface[/MENTION] wont be surprised to hear he basically asked for the items he didn't have. The hosts made fun of him for that. They then talked about the costume, and they all thought it looked more like a tomato [MENTION=34018]littlebear[/MENTION].
haha you know me too well! He's absolutely shameless. I'm only going to refer to him from now on as The Hustler.
 
I did give Tully a pass because I believed it wasn't her intention to get together with Drew in that way and it was just a true love sort of thing that she had no control over (being honest, I am rethinking my opinion now because of the way I see her behaving now, I'm not sure, so my opinion is in flux right now) . Being over emotional is irritating but at the same time she was being herself, showing her honest feelings (I value honesty). I thought Tully was caring and intelligent (and I still do).
And Drew? Not a scumbag even though Tully was in a relationship? Obviously that's not my opinion, but on that same basis, I find it hard to apply totally different standards to Ed. He tried to tell Jade that it wouldn't work...more than once. He's inarticulate and she was as single-minded as you in her pursuit of Ed. Like Tully and Drew, they were playing something out in public and there was never going to be a good outcome for Ed or Jade. As others have said before, it seems odd to be defending a housemate I barely thought about, but I think your double standards are showing.
 
I still don't get it. You may be the only person here who seems to hate a housemate. Ed could save a family from a burning building and you'd say he lit the fire. For someone who is so rational about most things, your unrelenting digs at Ed are weird. (Sorry...)


My thoughts exactly.
 
And Drew? Not a scumbag even though Tully was in a relationship? I think he restrained himself even though he wanted to go to the next level. He left the decision on the matter up to Tully because she was the one in a relationship entering the house.

He's inarticulate and she was as single-minded as you in her pursuit of Ed. Drew's inarticulate ? I don't think that.

IMO it is clear that Ed didn't want any relationship with Jade but didn't have the balls to nip it in the bud, and then used Jade to try to stay in the house when his poor gameplay had failed him so miserably. The constant covering up, lies and using of Jade to stay in the house are the things that make me not like Ed.
Drew was honest and open, he tried to get along with everyone, he didn't try to force Tully into anything, even if he wanted it, so no I don't see Drew as a scumbag at all.
 
Oooh you're quick tonight ;) The show has been over for weeks and Ed is still copping it...
He is not alone and I think he's coping admirably. The bigger question is why any of the groups stalking the subject/s of their disapproval continue to hound any of the housemates...It's begging for someone to say, 'Get a life'. Happily it seems that Ed and most of the others are simply getting on with theirs.

I was saying Ed was inarticulate, not Drew. As if I, who is so openly one-eyed would ever criticise Drew.
 
We're all guilty of it to some extent with one or other of the HMs. I take little issue with Ben in part for the reasons you mention here, but also because when he was funny, he was very very funny (second only to Boog on MY laugh meter).

You've hit the nail on the donkey...;)

Okay....I get it. You do not like Ed at all....fine, I understand that. But you are so nasty about anything to do with him and have snide comments to make every time his name is mentioned or a picture of him appears . That, I don't understand. You seem to have taken his role on the show very personally and I find that a bit over the top.
I don't post much (not much fun being an Ed fan ) but I have been lurking to catch up on news because I don;t have twitter or instagram.

I don't his poor character (it isn't just his role on the show) and I don't comment every time he is mentioned. I don't know what you would like about him, maybe you think he is attractive physically?
