MAFS. Thread 8. No spoilers. Shitlids, shitlips and shitstirring

[gonnabeteoubleemma]

Take it away!

It may be that I'm actually so engrossed in reading these threads that in missing key parts! Unlike other seasons, I feel this season that there's a lack of smooth continuity and I'm often thinking - what just happened there ( like the Hannah/ Stephen debacle).
There are contestants I have no idea what they're about. Ross for example.
There were issues with Eve yet it was definitely edited to focus upon Charlie and only with time could we start to detect that Eve was the master manipulator.
The wedding of Nafe and Lacey - it's clear they made the 'pretty' twin go down the aisle first purposely so that Nathan, not the brightest, would react that way.
We get thrown into a couples arguments from almost nowhere and I'm left thinking, again, eh!?

It is different this year. Along with bargain basement contestsnts, it feels like the production team are Year 10s on work experience 🤷‍♀️

Only just watched...need to have a word with myself...am not registered on companies house 🤣

I am hoping for some fireworks tonight....must excuse myself from a work dinner early!

I understand.

I found him quite striking in his Kim Jong Un get up last night,and I know that's not right.

@Tittat50 😭😭😭 whyyyyy

@purplespink I don't understand it either.

I'm scared what might happen if there's a towel only, topless, Shitlid scene at the retreat 🤷‍♀️.

( Tittat50 proceeds to search for CBT practitioners specialising in unhealthy fixations in the perimenopausal population....😬)

@Tittat50 I thought my symptoms were bad enough, and I've had most of 'em.

Surely I wasn't the only one swooning when he said 'like' and ' innit' approximately 50 times in one sentence!

😂

Although to be fair, as the show has gone on, the more I think he's actually okay compared to the rest of the cast.

I agree. Until his more recent personality transplant, he has at least been honest and upfront about what he does and doesn't like.

@Tittat50 it's funny how I've gone from feeling sorry for Polly to feeling sorry for Shitlid 😂

Yes me too! Polly is behaving very much like a school bully.

@JaneJeffer I get my Ollies mixed up all the time when I'm typing and generally go back to edit my Hs and Ps. It doesn't help that they're both nasty pieces of work towards other women.

@Tittat50 I agree BUT I reckon that she was bullied herself and that's why she acts like this.

How have I not clocked this before!? She IS Margot!

Holly mentioned how to is here es was. Somehow I don’t think Holly was totally innocent in her last relationship. When she’s in an argument with someone who’s angry, she gaslights even more. This isn’t how you diffuse a conflict with someone who’s highly strung like Alex.

Holly would make a shit police officer.

And Alex shouldn’t be within 50 feet of Hollys kids.

Alex has what the American military call the “thousand yard stare”.

I think Orson is more complex than we think!

I love the face that he isn't super 'masculine'. The hot tub with a mate and a glass of bubbly, the bathrobe with a cup of tea.

I'd he does get off with Hannah, good for him. She is beautiful, elegant and has very good dress scene. She may also be a bit crazy but I do think she has been very isolated. The other newbies have supportive husband. She has 4kids who has behaved (I think) appallingly.

She is beautiful

Margot had more self awareness 😁

Apart from not knowing why there are sleeves in jackets and having a hot temper, Hannah's been given a shit deal being paired with shitlid4kids.

Wow. You know the season is dry on all fronts when you lot start lusting after Shitlids of the world.

@thenightsky

*I feel very sorry for Casper. He seemed quite angry a few episodes ago and confronted the 'experts'. I can't remember his exact words, but it was along the lines of 'this is my life you're fucking with'.

The latest commitment ceremony showed him looking just defeated and depressed. I wish they'd just release him back to his natural habitat.*

Poor Caspar! He has looked broken since the moment he set eyes on Emma and realised that the love match the ixperts had come up with was his twin sister.

He's had a haunted look plastered on his face ever since, and who can blame him. He didn't sign up for Incest At First Sight.

I am sure that HBO would be more than happy to make Incest at First Sight

@JaneJeffer 🤣 I have really missed the comical looky like images.

4kids does look completely destroyed in clips from the bro's evening.

It's always interesting to imagine how they would behave if paired with someone completely different to who they got. I want to see more of 4kids because Hannah so easily draws attention and 4kids sits back a bit more as the perpetual victim.

I end up feeling sorry for 4kids when I see him and I want to challenge that. Screech Hannah is awful but I see her as someone who is struggling massively with self awareness and impulsivity and the Producers of course love this.

They must now have a question on entry forms asking if applicants have ADHD. You have ADHD? Tick. You have kids ? Tick, we will set you up with someone who does not want kids! 🤦‍♀️

I wonder if in the future we will look back at this in the same way we do with The Jezza Kyle Show.

Lord help anyone who even looks at Shitlid with Polly the Bouncer in the background. She'd put you in a headlock before you'd had chance to utter a word.
