You've got to laugh!
Alex makes an innocuous statement or acts in a fairly straightforward way and his supporters somehow interpret it as an act of selflessness or heroism. At the same time Johnny's supporters manage to see it as treachery or shit stirring.

The truth is that they are both fairly ordinary people - therefore having plenty of good and bad points - who both act in a reasonable manner the majority of the time. If the first casualty of war is truth, then the first casualty of Big Brother discussion boards is a sense of proportion. |

Re: Re: You've got to laugh!
it is a well known fact (i think) that people find someone to dislike, then find reasons to dislike them afterwards.
So if you like Alex then he can do no wrong, whereas Jonny haters will be making a meal out of everything little thing he does |

If we hadn't lost our sense of proportion, to some degree, we'd probably not even by watching what is only a television show after all!
Jack suspended his sense of proportion: temporarily. |

Well I like them both, so don't really listen (read) any of it... Much better that way!
