Love Island Thread 6 - I'd rather have a pint of elephant juice thanks...

[TitsInAbsentia]

Look, judge me for going early but I'm down the pub again tomorrow and I need to make sure your commentaries and observations are all being jotted down in an orderly fashion 😂

Be darlings though, and fill up the other one first....

I've just asked DP if I can explore my options.
She's told me to fuck off. The answer is no. Rephrased to can I flirt then. Still no.
Unsurprisingly.😂

No one is a narc on this program not in the clinical sense.

Tasha is a crybaby.

Again @thequeenoftheandals you read my
mind!

I favour Sam Thompson to be the host.

I’m disappointed this year!!! I don’t feel invested in any of them.

askdes from the moral high ground of their arguments, they are just a boring bunch of people.

Tasha is not interesting.

indiyah, I know you all love her but I find her boring

demi, he mumbles and I suspect he’s arrogant but we haven’t seen enough yet. He didn’t apologise nicely to Summer, instead he went in defending himself

Summer, also boring, made worse with the fake American accent

Danica - not boring, not my cup of tea, but at least is a bit sparky

ekin & Davide - I enjoy their silly tantrums and making up. Ekin softens with him. It’s a proper crush.

gem and Luca - I just don’t know anymore. He’s getting irritated by the boring people in there. Gem is keeping them all going.

Paige and Adam, not the real deal at all

deji, a nice guy!!!!!!

I’m contemplating not watching anymore. I feel cheated at the end of each episode like nothing happened and I was tricked, AGAIN!

Let’s have NORMAL people join, yes okay, no one wants to see someone heinously unattractive (that isn’t going to get the ratings up) but please stop with the influencers and the people with many followers. The show will result in blue ticks and verification anyway, let’s give normal people a chance. I’m tired of seeing models, and famous kids, I want to see bricklayers and shop assistants. Normal folk.

Yes! And I want 12 perfect strangers in there at any one time. Jacques has confirmed he already knew Cheyenne (the blonde he cracked on with in CA) from their teenage years, old Instagram comments heavily suggests he already knew Davide, he is Gemma’s ex, Gemma knew of Billy already/is from the same social circle.

Every year it’s the same where so many have met and known each other before and it’s often not even mentioned, makes it feel very set up. I want old school Big Brother type recruiting where they pick people who have applied for the show themselves from all corners of the UK who are totally unconnected

George hasn’t changed his story about what happened. He said on the podcast just after Casa that he touched his dick under the covers.

She not he

I guess we will never know

Still annoyed we never found out whether Anton’s ‘shopkeeper’ girl was in fact the drinks waitress who came into the villa in the 2018 series 😂

Sam Thompson as host is a great shout!

I will be fummin if all our votes are manipulated by production....we really need Tasha to know she's ok, and for Luca and dami to know they aren't - I think Gemma needs to see Luca low on popularity stakes so she can start to think why.

I'm still trying to work out whether Luca is still resentful that Tasha didn't pick him or if he now thinks Tasha and Andrew are 'back together' they are his competition.

Do we find out the vote results tonight?

Probably not! I reckon they will get the text about 10 mins before the end of the episode and then it will get down to those at risk then finish on a cliffhanger

I reckon we'll find bottom boys/girls and then be left hanging, that's the usual form isn't it.

Anyone else notice the music changed during snog, marry, pie, to something less poppy and more chillout/lovey when it was Paiges turn.

You are( hopefully) in a committed relationship IRL. I would hope that your DP would be against you exploring your options
Tasha is a young lady on a show whereby the premise of the show is trying to find someone that you are attracted to , get to the final and win £50k. So it is not comparable to your own situation .
Now , I am the first to admit that Tasha has been flip flopping all over the place . I have found her a bit irritating at times.
However, this does not mean that she deserves to be bullied by a bunch of misogynistic pricks simply because she wasn’t interested in one of them.
Also , it does not mean that she should be slut shamed and criticised on a regular basis.
She has been in the bottom a number of times which may explain why she is a ‘crybaby’. She is probably worried about what she is going to face when she gets out of the villa. I am no shrinking violet, but if I consistently got the lowest votes I would probably cry too.
Disappointing to witness the flippant attitude of some posters when it comes to the bullying and slut shaming of a young woman by a bunch of hypocritical males

Womens Aid on the current levels of toxic behaviour by the boys:

www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-62219716

I voted for Adam, simply because I think he's the least toxic (might have track record as lothario, but he's not a bitch and seems fairly straight in his dealings) and Ekin-Su because I think she's fab - also I think that the 'liar' accusation has been terribly over-egged now. She might not have disclosed a possible minor grope, but neither did Davide disclose everything he got up to. So both or neither

(sick of doble standards)

I'm not having it.
She's in Andrew's ear and head being all sweetness and light, then she was was off at the slightest hint of a six-pack. The lads have quite rightly called her out for it. The public agrees hence her status in the bottom 3. She's oblivious to why!

No-ones slut shaming, it's common knowledge and a joke amongst the whole group. I do think the boys need to drop it now as it is bordering on bullying. They need to leave them alone. Andrew nearly passed out trying to confront the boys.

Love island isn't a program to uphold ideal dating behavior. It's snide by nature.
Reminds me of dating and socializing during my later teens and early 20s.
Trust no-one.😂

The producers need couples for the finals.
So I am sure that they have started working on Luca and Dami’s redemption arc
Dami will start being nice to Indiyah and Luca will apologise to Tasha and Gemma
The audience will expect to ‘forgive’ Luca and Dami’s shitty behaviour.

First look is up.

Oooh. All islanders at risk of being dumped.

As expected looks like it will be a cliffhanger!

They must have known that when they were going to the 'club' that there would be a dumping. This is what happened on previous seasons!

I always think that but no, in they run like lemmings 😂

lemmings 😂😂😂😂😂

Yep cliffhanger here we come! I think the reason we’re not invested in any of the couples is cos they don’t seem invested in each other, in both relationships and friendships, all seems so fake.

Looks like Danica get pied tonight, after she’s opened the salon too poor lass. Deji looks like he calls out Billy’s shit treatment of her. Hope he survives the vote, he seems a good un.

Danica and Deji to win!
