MAFS AUS THREAD 7- This Dahtaar Centre has drunk bogans boganing in their boganic ways. The Warrior's testosterone is on the lock down for fear of Crazy Eyes stealing it away. Elliot is a grower and a shower in the wild.

Petty bogans time!

😂😂 splash out the sav blanc and watch those inner bogans yell!!

Agreed Clint has a mean streak there

Maybe I wasn't giving the programme enough attention and should rewatch..I'll take your word for it that they were out more than usual then!

Yeah and I think Jamie was pretty restrained just calling her rude. I would have called her a Stepford wife or something worse… there’s plenty she could have said back to her but she stuck to the facts. She was rude.

Oh god: this is horrible viewing

theyre all shouting

i cant even follow what the argument is all about

Well I hope Lauren will have to face up to her behaviour on Monday. She can't just opt out as she did with the dinner party.
Don't think Jamie really deserves to be criticised for standing up for herself, and for defending the others. Lauren did insult all of them after all, and thinks she's better than any of them.
I agree with whoever said that Lauren does fancy Eliot and is now regretting how things have turned out. She did her best to turn Veronica against him.

I dont know why Jamie is expecting an apology and pushing pushing pushing for continued arguments

it died down then she pushes back again

i hate scrappy people who expect others to “back them “

not everyone likes conflict

Do you know what it is next week...? Partner swap!

It's going to be absolute carnage I should imagine.

Bring it on!😂

Oh my days, the usual stir it up with partner swap and they’re already a hornets nest!

I can't remember them doing a partner swap last year. Bit of a cheek to do a swap when they reprimanded Billy over a throwaway wife-swap remark to someone who had moved in on his wife.

I wonder who will be put with whom.

OMG. Imagine Lauren and Dave.
Jacqui and Jeff. Oh the possibilities are endless..

I watched it twice (semi-saddo?) and I'd agree with that.

As an aside, I would love to see how much effort the others would be putting in if they'd been paired with Clint.

Jacqui and Jeff has to happen!

I think Lauren put Dave up near the top in the ranking task. I was a bit surprised.

I think the main mistake Jaimie has made is thinking any of these people are her friends. They've known eachother what, 4 weeks? That's not enough time to expect people to stand up for you as your friends. She chose to stand up for what she thinks it's morally right (with a little bit of love for the drama thrown in), but no one owes her any kind of solidarity. She clearly gets attached to people very quickly, as we have seen with Dave, but I think she'd be wise to stay more cautious.
That said, I do like her and I feel sad for her, I just think she needs to be more boundaried.

I remember in the UK partner swap they paired Adam (shitlid) with the Barbie type woman whose name I've forgotten. (She'd had a lot of enhancements and had looked so different before).
They ended up sharing a bed, and it never got mentioned or brought to light! Not that anything happened, but Polly would have gone ballistic and we were all waiting for that.
So anything goes on the partner swaps!

I think her name was Amy, and she was paired with Luke (Gaston!)
Worrying really, how much irrelevant detail I remember about these programmes!

I remember that. Aren’t Amy and Adam in a will they won’t they situation now?

We would all be geniuses otherwise.

I don’t think Jamie was a bully because she shouted. I think her behaviour was bully like because she forced Rhi to back down and agree with her by shouting and influencing the group. That is mean girl behaviour. Jamie can’t stand anyone disagreeing with her and that’s really concerning. If Jamie was male more people would see it.

You are only saying that because none of the voices transpired through the screen. I am picturing there being loads of vocals of various decibels.

We'd give rubbish dinner party.

Maybe I could sling my lemonade over someine. Nor as dramatic as red wine 🍷 🍷 🍷!

"I love people like Jamie though who do stand to for others. It’s so important I think. I still remember times when others stood for me after I received abuse (racism)
and it was such a rare thing to have someone stand by me that I’ll always remember and be grateful."

I think sticking up for an individual is very important. I think that is definitely as it should be.

Delatron "It’s a shame now that Jamie is seen to be a bully. Once you use that word then it’s game over."

I think it's the way she behaved towards Carina and Rhi that was bullying, controlling. I think she could come back from this if she realises that she cannot control how others react to her actions and words.

This was it with me (in reverse).

I didn't think Lauren was a bully or cow or suchlike as she was saying mean things but I think it was coming from a maladaptive mechanism for managing discomfort (in this instance at the girls' night. Definitely not arguing for a St Lauren).

However, Lauren was forced to defend herself.

For Jaime, I couldn't see any need at all for her to force Lauren to account for herself to her, or even contribute if she didn't want to. It was just pushing her because that was what Jaime wanted, regardless of Lauren's point of view or feelings. Plus it was pretty obvious where she stood.

Then tantrumming at various people and singling them because she had an expectation of a certain response and they out they disagreed, with her was a seriously bad look to me, even if her initial intentions were quite good in the setting. She just isn't the moral arbiter she seemed to think she was, and I think needs to grow into her wisdom.

Gah are they still doing that?
