ED Forum = Reality Entertainment

[Michael Palaeologus]

There has been much discussion about the horrors of Big Brother - a bunch of disparate people who row, bicker, flirt, fornicate, talk nonsense, chat about trivia, get drunk,throw up, keep chickens, grow veg, have philosophical debates, compare existentialist angst ..... AND we do all of this in public.

Isn's that us? Are we not Big Brother writ large? Do we not disport ourselves in public, strutting and preening to general adoration or scorn?

Are we not that which horrifies us?

*puts on Welsh accent*

I likes blinken I do.

[bignumber5]

Unless there's a room in the lounge somewhere that i've missed, just how much fornicating goes on here?!?

[Brendan]

Hmmmm, Does the Administrator type in Geordie?

[Michael Palaeologus]

BN5 - that is the next level of initiation in the "Other Forum"

[SeanMacGabhann]

Reasons this place isn't BB (and all the better for it)

1) No cash prize

2) No "fame". For 15 seconds. And even that is of the Heat variety. * shudders *

3) No producers messing with our heads

4) No general script behind the scenes with a vague direction of how things will turn out

5) Intelligent conversation happens on here. Sometimes

6) No. F***ing. Davina. McCall

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Wow, Sean, I'd never have guessed Miss McCall was your fantasy.

[Brendan]

Now I haven?t watched BB in a good few years but if that is how low they have stooped then they truly have scraped through the bottom of the barrel.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Y'see PGC - intelligent wordplay. I like it.

You know, I kind of knew what she meant when she said that...

To add to what SeanMac said, we didn't audition and we weren't selected by a casting team specifically to annoy each other.

It's just happy coincidence that we do!

day 756 in the lounge

DM is flirting

Macroban is showing his pictures of ED 100 years ago.

Louisa has said something controversial.

A new contestant said..'there are too many kids in pubs round here'.... and the existing forumites yawned collectively.

HonaloochieB posted on the song game thread.

Tillie Trotter added a line to a limerick.

For todays task, the forumites must construct a picture of James Nesbitt using only punctuation marks.

Who goes?

you decide

[citizenED]

You mean this isn't Big Brother and there's NOT a cash prize - bollocks, I'm off....

[Moos]

You see, this thread (especially mightyroar and Citizen) has made me laugh out loud, which is more than BB has ever managed to do.

Sean the Turkey said:

1) No cash prize - PAH! LOTS OF MONEY TO BE MADE THROUGH WANTED, OFFERED AND RECOMMENDATIONS

2) No "fame". For 15 seconds. And even that is of the Heat variety. YES THERE IS, WE ARE ON A PUBLIC FORUM, OUR RAVINGS ARE READ BY THOUSANDS ALL OVER THE WORLD AND WE HAVE PICTURES COURTESY OF ANDREW

3) No producers messing with our heads ADMINISTRATOR - ALL OF THEM

4) No general script behind the scenes with a vague direction of how things will turn out ADMINISTRATOR, ALL OF THEM

5) Intelligent conversation happens on here. Sometimes NOT EVERY DISCUSSION ON BB IS ABSOLUTE COBBLERS, AS ON THE FORUM

6) No Davina McCall. MOOS? SURELY?

[SeanMacGabhann]

I am.... now going to check Michael Palaeologus's freezer for frozen body parts....

(did I miss/forget the turkey reference?)

[Michael Palaeologus]

:))

[Moos]

Why am I Davina?

[SeanMacGabhann]

s'ok hon - you're not. I've had a word with the Bad Man

[Moos]

Fanks, Mr. Mac. But I was more curious than outraged.

[Michael Palaeologus]

or ... AnnaJ

[Moos]

Pretty sure I'm not Annaj either..

[Michael Palaeologus]

Princess Diana? In happier times, not now, obviously

[annaj]

Absolutely Moos. I'm fairly certain I'm annaj.

I'm lost Michael, what about me?

Are you suggesting I'm Davina?

If so, I must correct you I'm clearly Angelina Jolie, although I notice the mirror thread has gone strangely quiet since I posted that...

[Michael Palaeologus]

Tsk, Scientists! Always want a logical answer... :))

[Bellenden Belle]

Can I play Davina please?

Surely Moos and AnnaJ are the sexy voices in the diary room...authoritative but a little cheeky too.

But what I really want to know is whether there is a Big Mouthed Russell Brand lurking on the forum?
