![]() It doesn't bother me that much - I didn't even like Lateysha. I'm more depressed, to be honest, by this board tonight. Usually, DS is interesting when something like this happens; when the original concept gets a major erosion. Because that's what this is. A MAJOR deviation from the concept. So much has changed. We're allowed to discuss that. The utter hypocrisy of DS being up to high doh because Chelsea was evicted other than by the public; followed by a stark contrast of utter jubilation at Lateysha's BB demise should make for an interesting conversation, no? wow just wow. DS isn't a group acting on mass. Maybe some are hypocritical, maybe we all are at times but as for the recent evictions I didn't actually want either to go but would have cheered if it had been Jackson, Alex or Ryan so am I hypocritical for that By the way I can only speak for myself but assume everyone has their reasons for rejoicing and for disliking.

You didn't really expect anything else did you. This is a forum has change so much. The nastiness I have seen building over the last few years is shocking. I hardly post now as I just can't be bothered to waste my energy on nasty spiteful people. There use to be fun threads and forum members you could have a fun bit of banter with. No its all about how some is a slag whore fat ugly etc etc and people really seem to take great pleasure in it. No one in that house is that bad this year they all seem like quite alright people. But there has been so much nastiness directed at them I just don't understand it |

It WAS unfair - the whole annihilation thing is unfair.
But as I accept that Chelsea went - although it was unfair... I am happy about Lateysha going - although it was unfair. |

It's LOVELY compared to what it was. |

I don't like this annihilation rubbish and you're right, it is harsh.
At the same time though, i don't think she should have been in there at all. If she had stayed, she would have won, there is no doubt about it. She had an unfair advantage at the start because she already has a massive following. It's a mess because of how the show is now, the people in charge are the ones to blame. |

I'm a genuine BB fan, well I was in the past and I still like keeping up with the show so I think I still qualify...
To qualify as a "genuine BB fan" you have to loath Channel 5 for all their 'meddling' and remember Channel 4 with wistful fondness, you have to have campaigned against (ie, whinged online about) the loss of Live Feed and use the lack of LF as an absence of evidence that somehow validates whatever point you want to make, you have to be vociferous to the exclusion of logic, and you have to channel a lifetime's worth of anger and frustration with your own life and the wider world and project it onto any HM that even looks a bit like someone you once met that turned out to be a pr*ck. And so on.Did I miss anything?

Usually I'd agree - in fact, earlier in this series I contributed to a thread saying it had calmed down. But the reaction to Lateysha's eviction tonight has really shocked me. Extremely nasty tone tonight. Hopefully once people have a chance to sleep on it they might reconsider.
If Lateysha had been a bit graceful about it all, if she hadn't MILKED the single mother stuff, if she hadn't have acted in such an entitled way, I would have felt that it was a shame that she went. However she pulled every cheap shot in the book, and was unbearably confident in her minions and her huge following (that shouldn't have allowed her even IN civilian BB) that the reaction is understandable, as it revealed what it was ALL about for her. Not that it wasn't unfair, it was, but well, nothing we can do about that. |

Mind you, I'd be the first to admit that I don't like twists until they go my way. Then I'm, for the most part, quite ok with them. Every cloud... I make no apologies for enjoying a 'reality' TV show. Unfair twists, warts and all. It's usually (hopefully!) not a reflection on my good character.

Those who live by the sword, die by the sword. If she was only a threat in terms of being the likely winner I don't think she'd have been picked, but she had also been the ringleader in a lot of situations, none of them particularly laudable.
In the past the Big Brother process has rewarded underhandedness and bitching. This goes to show that you have to at least try to get on with the HMs you don't particularly like if you want to win. Lateysha made the age-old mistake of thinking people who aren't your friends don't matter. |

Since when was BB about fairness. Think that thoroughly got thrown out the window when it moved over to Ch5.
And it was unfair to the rest that she was even a housemate to begin with. With being on a reality TV show already. |

But anyway I had all but given up on this year, don't really care that much about any of them, don't hate them or anything, I'm just meh...I'm not crowing about Lateyshas exit and I wish her well, she'll do alright out of her time in BB anyway, I'm sure.
I do agree that it was unfair on Lateysha and Chelsea, but hey, that's BB's fault not the viewers and thy're not the first to be shafted by BB. All this 'we decide' is rubbish and the voters haven't been in control for some years TBH. It's totally manipulated by BB and I've accpeted that now so all I want is to be entertained and I loved the show tonight. That's why I liked what Jason did, his actions made me want to watch and that's all I'm looking for in BB now, I gave up investing in individual housemates ages ago, but hey... that's just me. |

BB make and change rules all the time. That's the game like it or not. Jason pressed the button and evicted a HM. Not unfair. She's no more deserving than anyone else.

There was ALWAYS that.
And there has been a lot of humour on the board this year. This forum is dying has been dying for years. Every year there are less and less post of any real interest just slagging off housemates to max. I will say that today when no-one was sure who was going that was a fun time speculating |

now it seems you read a thread and it just pure slagging off no humour. just calling people fat whore slut slags it goes on and on Yes it was unfair how both Chelsea and Lateysha have gone this week but I have seen worse, for instance, the year when Connor took a case full of money for being vile, nasty and a real plonker! That's just one instance but there have been others! |

Exactly this, Lateyshas biggest problem was thinking she was bigger than the show and had everything her own way for too long! We saw her clique bow down to her and anybody like Andy or Jason who they didn't like got a hard time, even Laura and Evelyn to a degree. Lateysha even said in the dr the other day that she looked on Laura, Evelyn, Jayne and Andy as the weaker people of the house, basically they were cannon fodder and could leave for all she cared! She even smirked when she knew Chelsea was being evicted! I much prefer for us the voters have a say who goes but I do think that a lot of people thought Lateysha got her comeuppance tonight!
As far as I'm concerned, well done Jason, you stirred it up big style 👏 👍 |

It's unfair to Andrea Leadsom for getting tons of grief for suggestions she should win as she's a mother.. but it seems to be OK for Lateysha
