Big Brother ITV2 - Thread 3

[TellingBone]

Previous thread starters appear to be taking a break so here we go

Completely agree with all of that. ^

Rochelle's behaviour was awful last night. The constant peck peck pecking at poor Yasmin, about her weight and size was horrific. 'Scoff scoff scoff, what a bloater you are, I bet you eat all the kids meals at school, munch munch munch, be careful getting on that bed it's about to cave beneath your weight you fat hippo!'

Yasmin hooting with laughter, as you said, is a coping mechanism, because nobody, I mean NOBODY is going to be OK with this. One thoughtless comment is a bit shitty, but sometimes people don't think before they speak... But a tirade like that, with all the shit Rochelle was firing at Yasmin, and the 'shoving food in your face' motions, then banging on about the bed about to break because of her weight, was 100% bullying.

What is wrong with her? Is this some kind of way to get her face on TV, or is she really as nasty as this in real life? I can't imagine talking to anyone like that. WTF is wrong with her?!

I'm not worried 😂
Lynx is insanely attractive, and I think Omar is just jealous. Rihanna does go a bit doe eyed around Lynx.
If Omar was a red flag, Rochelle or some of the others would be commenting. Yasmin isn't a fool, and she didn't express any concern about Omar to Rihanna.

Agree with all of this.

Re Omar I was reserving judgement, but the way he grabbed Rihanna and forced kisses on her has got me agreeing that there is definitely something very questionable about his behaviour and words. And what’s with that weird hairline? I can’t make it out.

Tinky Winky is growing on me.

I didn't know that term either. Though it does seem to fit Rhianna.

That’s spot on. Frankie gave it out first. Rihanna responded in kind. He misheard and has over indulged his paranoia. This will come back to bite Frankie on the arse. He’s one of the dullest housemates in a long time. Prick.

I don't like either of them tbh.

Frankie is over sensitive and boring and Rhianna is vapid and boring.

I think Rochelle is setting herself up as a pound shop Katie Hopkins. She sees Yasmine's weight as self-inflicted, and therefore Rochelle is free to make whatever comment she pleases about it with no consequences.

And Omar. Omg, urgh. Definitely Andrew Tate fanboy. R should definitely wake up and smell the coffee. No amount of attention, media or otherwise, after BB ends is worth this awful showmance

I'm wondering if BB will address Rochelle's comments towards Yasmin.
It was 100% bullying because she did not let up.
Even after Lynx "rescued" Yasmin, (he said I thought you needed to get away from Rochelle), and they went into the bedroom with all the others, Rochelle followed them in and made the bed breaking "jokes".
Philip even said That's not funking nice.
I don't funking like that myself, i dont like that".

Oh it looks like my messaging does not like me swearing 😂

Anyway, meant to say funny how Rochelle didn't come out with the fat comments when the GC was around.

Yes that's a good point about Rochelle/GC. It's a very unpleasant side of Rochelle to pick on somebody she sees as lower in the pecking order. I expect she'll wake up to herself at some point and do the grovelling one to one apology we've seen previously.

Anyway, I came here to post about Twinks. I was reflecting that over many years people have railed against being labelled, put into boxes; yet it seems to be the SM trend now to do exactly that. It's wrong. Also what business is it of hers what anyone's sexual preferences are? Maybe they want to be private. I hope she goes.

Which brings me to Frankie and his never-ending quest to seem interesting, engender drama around himself. It's not working. And now he's downright lied to turn people against Rhianna. Nope.

Rochelle is just awful, that horrible, scowling look on her face and the nasty words that come out is vile.
Much rather Jasmine's loveliness, pretty face and voluptuous..ness than a meanness and flat arse!

I was really excited about the GC going in, still love some of the phrases from last time she went in. However it was really disappointing, no drama at all although I do agree with a PP that it may have had an impact on the housemates. I’m sorry I did laugh at Rochelle saying about Yasmin stealing the kids packed lunches but I do think she went to far, just kept going on and on, especially about the bed.
I really want Frankie out, so boring. Harry came alive a bit when he talked about the justice system which was good to see.

What did you think was funny about Rochelle attacking Yasmin about her weight?

Someone will have a quiet word with Rochelle, she will apologise with a couple of tears thrown in. Yasmine will
be expected to carry on being Miss Jolly and take no offence.

In my adult life, I’ve ranged from a size 8-18. I’ve met many Rochelle types. I bet she has always been very slim. Whether through genetics, exercise or restrictive eating. Or a combination of all three. She lacks the intelligence and empathy to understand that not everyone has been dealt the same hand as she was. Her comments last night and in the beginning towards Millie show us all exactly what Rochelle thinks.

The fact that Rochelle wouldn’t have dared say anything like that to Gemma tells us that she knows it’s wrong. She targets younger women with less status. She’s a nasty bully.

After last night… Yasmin for the win.

I'm also uncomfortable with Rochelle's "jokes" about Yasmin's weight.

It's great that Yasmin can laugh them off. But it's still not right to joke about something so personal unless - possibly - you are best friends going back years and know your friend has no sensitivity around the subject.

Still - it makes Yasmin look good and Rochelle look bad so hopefully this will help me get the result I want - Yasmin for the win!

Yes @Ohcrap082024 I have been between a size 8 and a size 22 over the years (currently a 16,) and have had this same kind of shit too. Mocking and deriding my weight, my fat arse, how the floor is shaking as I walk. Etc...... And half the time when I wasn't even that big.....

In a job I was in, in the early 1990s, I was 9 stone 7 (at 5 ft 4) and a size 10-12 at the time (would be an 8-10 now.) I had a 25" waist.

I worked with a girl 2-3 years younger than me who was 5 ft 1, and 7 stone, a size 8, and had a 21" waist. She has a friend who was a couple of inches taller than her, but also very slim/7 and a half stone.. For some reason, she (the first girl not her friend) felt the need to keep making fat jokes aimed at me. I started the job in the March, and around 2-3 months in she started on me....

'Oooooh, Typewriters, the chair nearly buckled beneath your weight then!' and 'You have more Chins that the Chinese telephone directory' and 'eating again, fatsnack, you don't wanna get any bigger hahahahah!' And as I was walked past her she'd sing 'hey fatty bum bum, sweet sugar dumpling,' and 'ain't gonna bump no more with no big fat woman!' and said things like 'make sure you turn sideways through the doorway or you'll not get through!' and 'Typewriters needs to get the the copy room, get a crane to carry her!' Then she howled with laughter at how 'funny' she was. Her friend was just like.... 😐and looked a bit uncomfortable, but never said anything. I said nothing either and was like 🙄

After the 10th comment in about 2-3 weeks, I said 'have I upset you Gaynor?' she was like 'what....? No, why?' and looked really puzzled. I said 'all the fat comments, and the singing about fat people, and you need a crane type comments.' She said 'oh for goodness sake, chill the fuck out, I'm obviously only joking!'

tl;dr, it turned out that she was jealous of me, because one of the blokes there who she had a crush on liked me, and wanted to ask me out, and she was so annoyed, that she decided to seriously neg me. She wasn't sorry and said I was a big baby getting all huffy. Long story short, I told her if she carried on, I would report her for bullying. She was like I just said 'no, I'm not having you insult my weight every single time I walk past. I'm fucking sick of it. It's not funny.' She hardly spoke to me after that, and fortunately, she moved departments a month or so after. Good riddance too.

But yeah, nasty, and not the only time this kind of thing happened.

Rochelle is flat out bullying Yasmin. She is vile.

As has been said though @Twiglets1 I think Yasmin's 'laughing' is forced. No way can anyone find this funny: a tirade of insults and verbal abuse about their weight and size.

Yasmin did talk about it in the diary room though and said she has a dark sense of humour and finds Rochelle's comments funny.

Hmmm yeah she did. I don't believe her though. Her face (and her eyes) told a different story. I don't believe anyone would be OK with a constant barrage of insults and jibes about their weight, least of all on national television.

JMO.

I know she said that she found Roachelle's comments funny, but I think she was putting on a coping-mechanism front.

Well, we'll see.

Either way Rochelle shouldn't be doing it.

Eurgh

Just watched last nights episode

Frankie, Rhianna, Omar and Rochelle 🤢🤮

When, oh when, is Frankie going to announce his bisexuality??

Nobody believes that though. It’s a defence mechanism.

As hes leaving? Thing is its nobodies business but he made it a big thing going in
