There's nothing wrong with her getting involved in fun and games but not at anyone's expense.

You think we should applaud her joining in being a bully?

He's stalking around the house like a wounded bear seemingly too afraid to do or say anything in case the other HMs attack him. You'd think he was some shy, retiring librarian rather than a stand up comic with over 40 years experience of appearing in working men's clubs, etc. He could rip that lot to shreds if he chose too.

Interesting too that BB seem to be jumping on the bandwagon with the addition of the melancholy backing track on that clip, viewer manipulation at it's finest.”

Well thought out argument.

I couldn't disagree more.

My opinion really doesn't matter. I was making a comment about Karma.

Because I know someone will come back and slate me for not responding to your question I will -- I would be annoyed about the noise and do my best to sleep. I'd be an adult and talk to them in the morning and if it continued I'd be the noisiest witch in town every couple of hours through the night. It worked when we had some problems with noise in student accommodation and I'm sure it'd work there too.

But I still say if Karma's doing any biting, it's nipping at Jim.

Luisa is taking the piss out of Jim and Linda is laughing.

That's exactly what Jim does for a living.

When you're in a house that size with that many people it's often at peoples expense. As has been noted on here, this is something that has gone on in the house for years and it's not going to stop.

Jim was first to wake up today, and his immediate reaction was to be as loud as possible. Is this a man who needs an audience, perhaps? When nobody else stirred, he went off to make himself a cup of tea, but soon enough he was back in the bedroom making a noise.

Luisa was next, and she was very quick to tidy the area around her bed. Tidy place, tidy mind? She was straight over to Linda and guess who they were talking about immediately. Jim, of course. "He’s so smarmy and childish," hissed Luisa, "and he’s not even that famous." Some would argue that hosting several primetime TV shows trumps finishing second in The Apprentice, but not our Luisa.”

If I saw bullying of any kind in this show I'd happily answer that. People throw that word around in here like mad and by continuing to do that it's being watered down and meaningless.

You don't need to 'never mind' because I did answer.

I dislike the way people immediately scream bully when there has been an occasional set to, but the way Jim is being continually targeted by certain hms I think it has become just that.

They are like a gang of school girls who pick their victim and make their lives intolerable.

You asked if Luisa and Linda were acting in a reasonable manner, I'd have to say in the context of being in the BB house they were.

It is a tradition that HMs lark about in the bedroom late at night and those that want to go to sleep have to suck it up. Likewise it's a 14 year tradition that the bedroom door always squeeks and no-one ever oils the hinges.

Not ideal I'd agree but it is what it is.

Rewatch it again, that cow Luisa starts as soon as he walks through the bedroom screaming 'Its the grim reaper'

You must think the same of Casey too since Lee managed to get a bit of a campaign going on about her that was nothing but a pack of lies.

I'm sorry, but Jim is not being bullied. The definition of bullying is based on the person being bullied as being smaller or weaker. I don't see where Jim is either of those things.

Happy to disagree. My daughter tried to commit suicide when she was a teenager because she was bullied. It's not a word I am prepared to use without the situation truly warranting it.

What an infantile reaction to infantile behaviour. Poor Victim

They could all negotiate and agree a time at which the bedroom is to be kept quiet and every one who wants to stay up should move to another room. It is silly to tell people to go to bed at a certain time too. Why does he prefer to whinge and moan rather than deal with situations if he is not passive aggressive?”

They were certainly in the wrong. He'd hardly be able to play the victim if he behaved like an adult and discussed anything sensibly, not in his nature. Passive aggression doesn't work that way..

It must eat Luisa and Linda up inside that Jim is not retaliating because mark my words that is what they want. They want to break him.

You do not have to be smaller or weaker to be bullied, influence can also be used, and that is what we are seeing with the ganging up, it has nothing to do with him being a man either, men can be bullied by women too.

I personally couldn't give a toss about these Nolans, there was one talented one in my opinion and she lost her life to cancer, the two that are constantly ramming themselves down our throats, Colleen and this one, need to just disappear gracefully, neither of them has aged well and this is my opinion.”

If I were you I'd start trying to get that changed then because there are a whole lot of mental health care professionals who obviously aren't clued up. I am assuming you are aware that 'weaker' applies to either physically or mentally.

Also, I am well aware bullying does not exist as an act from and to specific sexes.

So as I was twice the weight and taller than the woman screaming at me and bullying every day at work I was not being bullied ? doesn't work that way some smaller people can very much be bullies especially if a gang of them get together. Tribunals luckily recognise that BTW as do or law courts.
