Enjoy!

Jayne proceeds to describe herself: "I'm fun-loving, energetic, bubbly, outgoing, scary, sexy…I give a good argument!" This is a great example of how scouring the lonely hearts ads can go very awry; if you read Jayne's account of herself, you wouldn't expect to turn up outside the cinema, clutching a rose, to find an eerie hybrid of Lizzie Bardsley, Waynetta Slob and Attila the Hun.

It's funny how she thinks Jayne has an ego though. Maybe it's because I see Jayne as the female David Brent that i don't view her delusional idea of herself as this hilarious entertainer as being about 'ego' at all. I just think 'good on her'. I dont really understand the mind of someone who wants to see people like her/Brent get their ego thwarted. Dont they realise why they're like that in the first place? Cant condone bullying, sorry. That would tear her to pieces. She's funny. She has to stay because that double act line was class. I love when people second-guess how the BB audience perceives them...and get it wrong.
Having said that - is she really delusional? She gets alot of sex in Slough right and i imagine she has a lot of friends? So why should she think of herself as being anything less than she does? Of course if she pulls she'll think she's attractive. Again, good on her.
er...yes you can.
I like that.
She's spot on about Richard too, I admit I'm feeling a bit ambivalent toward him following last night's show, but he is genuinely funny (unlike Jayne).
In a nutshell. Can this woman read an autocue? She should be presenting BBLB.
makes me laugh when stupid people inform me they hate Richard as "he's the biggest game player in there". Because Big Brother is a game. Like there's any other reason to be cooped up in a glasshouse with a bunch of simpletons in 36-degree heat with no food, no hot water, no newspapers, no music and the daily toil of chatting to Mikey.
Edit: Oops beaten to it by the lovely Clover.
Last night's show was designed to make you feel that way! Blatant editing.
And Russell begging us to keep Jayne in too! I was shocked at the skinny fella.
Dent is spot on. Richard is awful and slimy in many ways, but he adds a touch of humour and kindness to the house.
Everyone should read this; this is exactly why I am a Richard fan.
Genius, and spot on

Thanks, miss granger.
I'll be sad if Richard leaves tonight. He's an annoying git at times; smug, repetitive, loves to press people's buttons and watch them explode, but one of the only housemates with a modicum of intellect and spark.
I like the way he's kept his eye on the prize, kept his marbles (mostly) and been able to eloquently nail how he feels about people in the diary room. "I'd like to check behind Imogen's ears to find the drill holes," said Richard once, "to see where they performed the lobotomy." This week Imogen wandered from the bathroom moaning: "I've 'ad to 'ave a cold shower. It's freezing." "Oh, don't worry, they're good for you," said Richard, deadpan, "Good for cellulite."

I'd like to see the back of Jayne as she makes me despair about the state of Britain. Jayne's loud, assertive and belligerent, trampling over everyone in her path. You can't fully knock her down; but I like seeing egos like Jayne's temporarily knocked down, even though it's just for five seconds until she pops back up like an evil Weeble.
Lol
So farewell, Rich, if you've signed your own death warrant by displeasing Michael. Remember: he is love, love is God; ergo, Michael is God. Good luck, Dickie, you've made me smirk a lot over the last 60,000 words. And if I see you on Old Compton Street, unlike Michael, I won't just walk on by.
Nooo! Richard hasn't gone yet! Don't say that!
I too aren't a Richard fan but find him very funny and find Michael a complete weirdo. He should definatley be running a cult church, it would suit him
<choking on me baguette!!:D:D>
One thing I disagree about is Michael not being homophobic because he's gay! I think he does hate gays ergo he hates himself!
Hopefully Richard is not going anywhere he is staying to annoy Mikey, Imogen & Michael and to get ready for Ash to come and say how she really is pleased he didn't go! He can watch Glyn turn his evil eye further on to Mikey. Spirol will Spiral out of control and Jennie will decide Richard is a father figure and fight his corner.
Next week I think they will all be up. :eek:
I know, loved that!
The quote not you choking!
