What have you learned about yourself from BB this year?

I ALWAYS learn that I should be kinder in how I deal with and interpret other people - and that I may gradually forget that till halfway through the following year's season...!!! (BB is bad for most, but important life nutrients for me..)

Also - again, every season - but that you can have a general, quite sure, dislike for someone at the start, and then wtf find you really were / are too hasty with initial impressions...

I LOVE that changing opinion, that moment when you realise well after it's happened that you actually totally changed your opinion on someone, through learning about / seeing them in all their best and worst moments, and the way they handle them.

Trav seemed totally the antithesis of me at the start, and it turns out despite his obvious dimness, he's really quite a lovely, KIND, all-inclusive, thoughtful person.. That's actually pretty impressive, for someone who appeared at first glance like a stereotypical boofhead, who would - I kinda assumed - be casually racist, homophobic, and insensitive in a bad way.. (he can be insensitive, but he means well) It made me take notice when Jason came out and said something similar - and gradually following that we've seen his (Trav's) slightly mad lack of inhibitions in his affectionate love-ins.. his reactions to others' problems - kind and thoughtful again.. His reactions to others' good luck - happy for them without having an instant of jealousy or resentment. That I can get on board with..! (or should!)

I also wrote off Ryan at a certain point, and nothing could change that.. but the longer it's gone, I've seen he's actually not a bad guy, and quite genuine and thoughtful and well-meaning...

I also see each season people I expect I'll love, that lose it when things go down for them. Like nice - but adversity shows a bad side. And then I realise what a bad look that is, and that that's how I look sometimes when I get grumpy or woe-is-me... Sandra and others...

It's not just about how great you are when things are going well - it's how you take it when you're heavily nommed.! Or after a fight..

But all-up who you are actually is the combo of all our good and bad - and nothing- moments. For me what I learn - is that just because I'm GREAT, at times, and peeps say it (then); that when I'm tired or grumpy or bitchy - well that counts as well. I gotta stop handing in a note for my bad moments. That wasn't 'wasn't me' - that WAS (a part of) me..! You are not 'who you are' at your best; the job isn't done; you are who you are when all your best and worst and in-between is weighed up.

That's what makes BB a special thing. We see people in all their moments beyond what they want us to see!
 
That BB isn't the same without BBB, and that I love GIFS!

welcome to the forum!
 
I have learned that you can buy a GoPro Camera and a drone for under $2000.
But if you try to fly it over the BB house, they will call the police.
But if you calmly explain that there are NO LIVE FEEDS AT ALL and you were just trying to help people out, the police will let you go.djphantom.jpg
 
I have learnt:
  • how to use Photoshop
  • that there are some people who cannot be reasoned with
  • I shouldn't judge a book by its cover

  • I have learnt that BBB can keep me watching a program long after I may have given up watching.
  • I have also learnt how to be less lurker and more chatter.
  • I have learnt that lurking a lot can make you feel like you know people even if you don't/haven't chatted to them directly, and you can miss a poster you never really interacted with
  • That I like dot points! :p

And bats are dropping from the sky in this heat. And I have a NZ friend arriving here in an hour, and she'll not cope. AND I have a new swimming pool which has blown over budget, and is SO CLOSE to being finished, but still not able to be swam in, and it's 38 degrees tomorrow. And my aforementioned NZ friend loves a drink so expect I'll have to lady wrestle her from jumping in the dirty water tomorrow, until the pool company cleans it SWIM READY mid next week. #firstworldproblems #exceptthebats #globalwarmingscary

It's 1 degree celcius here, and I'm in need of a new pair of shoes.

i learned that waking up in the middle of the night and seeing less than 30 alerts under my name at this forum, (be they "likes" or "quotes" or "direct conversation e-mails" )affected my time in my house because i couldn't ejaculate.
i hated myself for not starting enough likeable threads or posting witty enough stuff that would get me 31+ likes etc
So 6pm to Midnight i would rack my brain for fresh insights & interesting rhetoric that would get me the minimum amount of adulation & recognition that my willy needed to function.
I soon discovered that liking others' posts incessantly, where i thought they were crap posts or almost as good as my magnificent ones etc, that it would shame others into auto_clicking my spectacular contributions
One morning, after an eviction show where i like every comment on every forum topic in every forum category, i awoke to 214 alerts !
It was also the first time since watching the pamela anderson porn video 20 years ago that my nuts just exploded WITHOUT any hands or lips or block of soft cheese coaxing them to orgaZm !
This non stop spunkfest continued for 45 to 55mins, by which time i was booked into the local sperm bank to donate what The Guiness Book people confirmed was the BIGGEST SINGLE DONATION in baby-batter love custard - silky seed HISTORY !!
The average load at sperm donation centre yields the better part of $11 plus a sandwich and glass of cordial
After i emptied my love truncheon's white pearly diamonds, i was awarded a cheque that saw me pay off the mortgage, install a swimming pool AND have enough $$ to ensure that Priya was saved from certain eviction!!
So i learned that i am a peacock and need my feathers viewed, ogled, envied & continually spruiked as the prettiest.
I also learned that no one can spell as perfecktly as i does.
And no one has won as much $$$ on evictees
And i learned that a troll can have a heart; so long as it is the heart of any loser that tries to match wits with me; or cum loads
Either/or.
