Well Big Brother certainly isn't anything to laugh at. It's morally corrupting and fast-food television of the very worst kind.

Well that's a good start, anyway. Now you just need to break the addiction.

it's not an addiction.
it's not like I watch it every day, maybe I watch the show every few days to see how things are progressing.
and the eviction shows.

[Cobalt]

Your house is filled with 70% idiots, 25% okay people and 5% good people

I'm jealous

[Cobalt]

The only really okay thing about it is the task they got this week. Which is friggin' awesome and has potential for funnies. Our housemates had to ignore the obvious. This included... (I stole this from the site, "the dog" refers to Ollie, the housemates were given a labrador puppy to train to be a blind dog, Terri's the oldest of the house at 52, Terrence is an intruder at 51 to give her someone around her age, Nobbi was sentenced to live out his BB days in a commy van and Cherry is a male intruder that is rather full of himself)

"‘Ignore the obvious’ seems like a pretty easy instruction, right? Wrong! With family members randomly appearing about the place and gorillas dropping in for a dance, how does one act nonplussed when faced with a surprise?

Apparently not too well! The Housemates aren’t doing a very good job of this week’s task and really, can you blame them? Check out what distractions have crossed their path thus far!

THE FLATULENCE

Burping and farting noises erupted in the Bedroom yesterday morning but nobody seemed to notice – Housemates were too busy sleeping. Or (and perhaps more disturbingly) they are used to hearing the sound of flatulence while in bed.

Big Brother: 0 Housemates: 1

THE FOAM

After being woken up the sound of a marching band, the Housemates trudged out of bed to find that their entire living space had been flooded with foam.

“Mate,” Cherry sighed, rolling up his trackie dacks before wading through the bubbles.

Terri combusted into giggles and then returned to bed, her entire body reverberating with laughter. Terrence followed suit, the two oldies proceeding to crack each other up.

Ben went to investigate. “What is it Ben?” Brigitte called from bed. The Head Boy observed the mountains of foam and then muttered, “Nothing.”

“Are you right Cherry?” Terri shouted between fits of giggles. “F**k.” Cherry groaned. This sent Terri into fresh fits of laughter. The Sexy Surfer, however, failed to see what all the fuss was about.

Big Brother: 1 Housemates: 1

THE SHOWER

Cherry wasn’t having a good morning. In the shower he was shocked to find that the water turned bright red. But rather than ignore it, Cherry lapped it up – even tasting the red mixture: “It tastes like red cordial.”

Big Brother: 2 Housemates: 1

THE WRAP

The Backyard’s been lucky enough to receive two makeovers thus far – one in silver foil and the other in pink plastic. The trees, the fence, the cows, the table have all been re-decorated. The Housemates were successful here until Nobbi had the bright idea of using the foil (which they weren’t supposed to notice) as a makeshift costume to create a knight-style war.

Big Brother: 3 Housemates: 1

THE MARCHING BAND

Nobbi and Terri were healing wounds in the Backyard when – low and behold – the Bullseye Door opened to reveal a full-piece marching band.

“Ignore it! Ignore it! Ignore it! Ignore it! Ignore it!” Terri screamed at Nobbi with unbridled passion. “Anyway Terri …” Nobbi continued, unconvincingly. “Yeah we were talking …” Terri talked. But found it hard to keep up the idle chatter, opting to rush to the bedroom to ‘ignore’ the band. Again, she found this difficult. “There is nothing happening in the Backyard,” she offered meekly.

Taking his cue from Terri, Ben wandered out into the Garden to catch the tail-end of the procession.

Terri returned to Nobbi, “The dog’s not in his bed. Where’s the dog?”

“I don’t know Terri,” Nobbi laughed. “The band took it.”

Big Brother: 4 Housemates: 1

THE FREE CASH

But the ‘ignoring’ isn’t all trombones and flag-twirling. There has been one very serious temptation. The kitchen bench has been covered in $100 notes that sing to the tune of $2000! The figure was enough to sway the Italian Princess.

Pocketing the cash, she gave her reasons to her BB for the sneaky snatch, "It kinda makes me look greedy and immoral ... or the smartest person here." Bianca admitted that she didn't really consider the HMs: "I don't care what they think." she said. "It's a substantial amount of money ... to leave it lying there seems idiotic to me. There's really no major catches except that we fail [the task]."

Big Brother: 4 Housemates: 1"

There was also a part where some of the housemate's family members appearances would randomly appear in the house. Also,

"Highland fling

HMs fail to ignore the obvious.

Alice and Brigitte prepare a cheese and nibbles platter for everyone and take it outside for everyone around the spa area. Renee whispers something in to Nobbi's ear. Nobbi bursts out with laughter. No one knows what they were talking about and they don't divulge any information. Just then a bagpipe player walks in to the garden with 2 traditional scottish dancers doing the highland fling. The rest of the HMs don't even try to ignore it and actually join in dancing along. "We've stuffed up now," Rory says. "We've had gone fun though eh," Terri says through laughter."

This is an awesome task
they so suck at this

They are clever idiots

If they were idiotic idiots they wouldn't know how to apply to get onto the show in the first place
