I know a lot of people that do, I don't despite not being superstitious.
Austin said "do you swear on.... life (didn't hear what he said) James said that then. So it's not like he said it randomly. |

) It feels too much like tempting fate for my liking. The same reason I would never make up something about a loved one as an excuse or to avoid something. I mean like saying I can't attend a function because XXX is ill or such like. Again tempting fate.Quote:
The minute i hear that phase i instantly disbelieve the person. To me its a big indicator the person is not telling the truth. Overcompensation for a lie is how i see it.

you're all very cynical aren't you!
we've heard James speak adoringly of his grandad many times.his letter from home was even from his grandad, so he is fully aware that his grandad is watching him. the way I see it is he was being very honest to Austin and the only way he could convince him of his honesty was to swear on someone's life who Austin was already aware of as a massively important part of his life. |

Does he have a living grandfather, probably not, so then it doesn't apply. I hate when people do it on these reality shows and are clearly lying. Talk about tempting fate.
Of course he has a grandfather....do not be so desperate. |

I felt quite sad for Austin in that moment, it was like the penny was dropping that James may have been using him during the run, which is what some have thought on here. Using as in the sense to get airtime through overly touchy bromance.

Some may call you gullible.
Cynical is what I see far more of on this thread. |

calling everybody cynical sounds like an insult and very judgemental just because people dont share your point of view.
We all judge really don't we? I feel there is an incredible amount of cynicism on here - there are HM's that really aren't nice people in there (that's why they've been included) - when they erupt people will bend over backwards to cite reasons for their behaviour or call 'bad editing' - IMO - it's much simpler than that. Some people aren't nice. |
