MAFS AUS Thread 6: Christmas Glazed Ham and all the purple nipply trimmings are giving us the ick, as is Dick. We’re just here for The Bullshit Investigators and mission impossible gamboles….. (NO SPOILERS)

[browneyes77]

Gambole = Brummie word for Forward Roll.

Just in case anyone was wondering…..🤣

Tori is so easily swayed.

She’s either gullible and deluded or this is absolutely some marketing pact.

What drugs is he on?

Is Jack going to dip his wick to keep Tori under his thumb?

"Seal the deal and get Tori over the line". Romance at its most heartfelt...

Do you think he has a major bet on getting his bride through to final vows?

Did he give her a black rose . Am I missing something ? It's nasty

Oh i get it now 🤣

'Diamonds'
Ohhhh Tori
Where is the strong boss-babe?
I feel that he's going to put a paper bag over her head and then shag her

Well that just answers my question.

The answer is yes 🙄😂

Jack see the whole thing as a game. He wants to get to the end

FFS. She thinks it’s because he fancies her.

🤢

Well now I think not one single couple is gonna make it past final vows.

😫

Not sure if I'm starting to see a pattern with a lot of the male entitled behaviour, lack of self reflection or willingness to do any work on themselves to sort traumas and the terrible news over the weekend. I know Aus is progressive in many ways, but globally we are seeing a huge issue with incel men, and I can see the stems of it in a lot of the men on MAFs this year. It's worrying when they are not called out, as a previous poster said, because they have become normalised in that culture/environment.

Think you've got a point @KitKatChunki, none of the men are demonstrating enlightened views, I don't care how pretty they are, I wouldn't want to spend time with any of these guys.

I like Ridge. I work in mental health and he reminds me of several of my colleagues. I suspect he has quite a bit more depth underneath his joking around.

I'm watching it a bit behind and Jack has just said he eats 6 CANS OF TUNA A DAY! All this time he's actually had mercury toxicity and we all thought he was just a psychopath

Once Tori and Jack split she's in serious danger of walking into another abusive relationship. She's not seeing any bright neon orange flags. Zero. I don't know what makes her think she's a strong independent woman. Because she isn't. She has no self respect by accepting someone like jack as a partner.

Even when she says she's doubting their relationship she doesn't look like someone seriously questioning and evaluating things (hello Lucinda). More like she's going to ignore this red flag by tomorrow also just because jack's made her breakfast or something. It's sad to watch.

Don't get my started on Sara. What was this performance on the boat? Looks like she coached Tim into saying 'emotional cheating' rather than 'cheating'. Why did she end up as the poor crying victim again that needed comforting? He obviously still can't address anything with her.

Funny how she thought the most challenging moment has been to in tim. Obviously he couldn't pull her up on it or she's have escalated completely again. He's the Andi in this relationship, always in fear of the next outburst.

I really like Ridge too @FriendofDorothy he's very mature when he needs to be

Yeah Ridge is ok. I still get the sense though he doesn't get how serious it is when a child is involved and how could he. He's very immature though.

I'm sure I read that you shouldn't have more than 2 cans a week max due to build up of mercury that your body retains.

Ridge is lovely, the whole deece frat boy persona seems to come out when he feels insecure, when he has to put on a performance. He is a little treasure, who is very emotionally intelligent for his age.
I'm not Tori's biggest fan, but can we put Jack's mean gal pals in the bin with Chelsea girl's friends from MAFS UK? The girl with the bleached grey hair was determined to dislike Tori and should hang her head as an anti-feminist.
If Tim can't forgive Sara he shouldn't sleep with her. Either forgive and move on or leave.

Didn't Jade throw shade at Ridge for living with his parents? She lives with hers! Neither seem that mature really...

What happened in the last five mins, after the final ad break?
My 4 app on the TV and phone cut it off and sent me straight to Made in Chelsea!

When they very first introduced Jack they showed him at home with just stacks of tuna and rice in his drawers, so that's not a new thing, it just weirdly hasn't been mentioned since.

I might change my mind, but for now I think I am actually team Sara for tonight. Agree or not, he decided to accept her apology and move on. But he then wanted to discuss it all over again after his friend brought it up, and again on the boat. I know it seems like she's reverted to shutting him down again but I can understand where she's coming from. I don't think they'll last anyway. He's got doubts he won't shake off.

Yes I’ve read that too 6 cans is ridiculous.
