Personally I am a pompous bore who abhors uneducated people who don't know the difference between a roll model (whatever that is) and a role model.
Not everyone has the capacity to express themselves as well as you do; my brother is dyslexic, not academically gifted and not the most eloquent person I've ever met in my life but that doesn't preclude him from being one of the sweetest, most well rounded and good hearted people I know.
I wasn't aware the purpose of big brother was to find 'roll models' [sic], the very nature of the program and the people it attracts makes that nigh on impossible imo, but so far Brian has come across as a likeable, amiable, benign influence in the house, something the show needs more of.
If his worst character trait displayed so far is a limited vocabulary then I think he's doing pretty well.
