General acceptance lol
Well it's better than Corporal punishment and all this going round in circles has given me a Major headache.

Not too sure where Im going with this, so I'll stop now before I make a 'mess' of my army related reply.

At ease soldier.

If there were unanimity, and general acceptance, there would be no discussion. Nor any point in one.

Not 100% sure but my recollection is that he said 'Not sure what you mean by genuine, BB...'

In any case, no, I disagree re your conclusion, either way. Even if he said "What does genuine mean?" it would still be a reasonable query in the context of being asked to name the 'least genuine' HM, since 'genuine' is subjective, open to interpretation and inevitably influenced by who a HM likes and dislikes.
In terms of the semantics in that question , i don't think so but i can still see your point and respect the way you see it.

I understand your point very well, I simply take a different position which you are failing to acknowledge..
Again, whatever helps you sleep better at night.

The hypothetical question needed participation and slice of effort to really consider and answer the question, unfortunately you weren't willing to even entertain the question. Veri, even though she/he strongly disagreed with me, at least took the time to attempt to answer it whilst outlining the issues she/he had with the question.

This back and forth is getting slightly old and stale. Let's agree to disagree, stop wasting each other's time and energy.

But when that 'possibility' is used to explain actions/words with no foundation then it's pointless. Every HM will have a 'something'' that could be used as a 'possible explanation'.

Another possible explanation is that the people who tend to be HM's are a rather self centered lot and if something doesn't directly involve or refer to them then they just aren't interested.
Yes, this makes perfect sense. Some personality subsets are probably more attracted to going through a long haul to be a HM, whether that's by what we might think of as the 'traditional' route, or by sucking up to / hanging with the right Zelebs in the hope of getting on to BB.
So you get the 'anal' types - and I mean that most sincerely folks - probably Joel, Jack and even Nick fall into this; then there are the D for dunce Dannies who see "fame" as a 'career' choice.
Either way, they are all very focused on their own little selfish planet and will blank anything such as general knowledge that does not appear to have an immediate benefit.
Only the 'anals' with natural intelligence or perhaps determined prep/ boarding school masters pick up anything else along the way.

This may be an unpopular and controversial opinion but in 13 years since Jade Goody was on BB, I think society has gone nuts and over board in over-diagnosing folks.

If someone seems like they have some defect in their behaviour or learning and knowledge skills people are quick to throw a label on it. I also think it's the protection that disorders provide, with a disorder you're no longer entirely accountable for your actions or inaction and there's less pressure and no condemnation to improve yourself. I'm not saying that this disorder don't exist but I do think a number of people are falsely jumping on the bandwagon to excuse their shortcomings.

All of the above . Marc was simply a major gameplayer but got his tactics wrong .
Mark merely fell foul of the vote to evict system. The nonentities nominated him and the lemmings evicted him

Easy done, stop claiming I am raging against a tide of fact as opposed to opinion and all will be well.

I appreciate it may be tough for some people to grasp (who knows- perhaps they are dyslexic) but it's not really a debate is it when the main points I have made have been totally ignored, and yet you still post stuff at me. It's meant to be a 2 way thing.

We kinda failed at the first hurdle

As you might say- LOL.
Loosely translated, "you refuse to agree with me, and I don't like it".
