TAKE YOUR VITAMINS
Ms Fits guest posts:
‘Why is everything I like bad for you? Why does your stomach feel strange if you sit at home eating musk sticks for seven hours straight? What’s up with feeling constantly poorly if you drink all day every day? And why have some CRACKPOT LUNATICS IN WHITE COATS DECIDED THAT BIG BROTHER IS BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH???
If I may quote:
‘Psychologists testing viewers who tuned in to the British show for just six hours found alarming side effects in their mental health, including increased levels of anxiety, depression and hostility.
Yet when the same guinea pigs were asked to watch daytime TV as an experimental control, they reported virtually no ill effects.
Glasgow Caledonian University researchers specialising in television-related research, were commissioned to carry out the study by London’s Mail on Sunday newspaper.
The subjects watched Big Brother for two hours a day for three days.’
Four things that are wrong with this study:
They were watching British Big Brother. Which as we all know is getting weird at series 6 stage with militant lesbians and Sudanese refugees.
They watched two hours a day for only three days. Of course they were anxious and hostile. It’s hardly enough time to get to know who everyone is or what their relationship history holds. Have they pashed? Have they had a bitch-fight in the toilet? WHO IS THAT GUY AND WHAT HAPPENED TO HIS HAIR? I’d be anxious too.
They were guinea pigs, for fuck’s sake. LIKE A RODENT-TYPE CREATURE WOULD BE ABLE TO TELL GOOD TELEVISION WHEN HE OR SHE WITNESSED IT.
I refuse to give up my final, immensely satisfying vice. Fuck the scientists. Fuck the lot of them.
Remember! SMS ‘Dean’ to 191010. IMMEDIATELY.

British Big Brother sounds like they've got the right idea. I want to see Australian BB try some of that shit.
Why not put in some assylum seakers and liberal voters, furious lesbians and , raging homos and evangelical christians, loggers and greenies, pornstar wannabes and pornstar wannabes. Cominations we KNOW will be fun. Sex is fine, but wouldn't a violant blood bath be better?
I'm sick to death of our BB contestnats.
It'd be a hell of a lot more interesting than the penis-extended oaf who thinks shit is hilarious, a pig with down syndrome and a margarine coloured wig, a saggy titted bi/lesbian wannabe, girls whose daddy's didn't love them, boys so stupid the only way they'd get laid in the real world was if they were playing blindman's bluff in the nude, fell over, and had it accidently slip into some poor woman/man's moist entrance.

Well the first thing that comes to mind is - they must have a lot better daytime Tv than they do here. Springer/Oprah/Phil, old re-runs, soaps and playschool for 3 days would make me shrivel up & die. Likely they were depressed & anxious because their BB experience was going to end in 3 days, & we all know that you get withdrawals at the end of BB. I enjoy watching weirdos annoying each other and having an element of power over them and this won't stop me.

Don't they get Neighbours during the daytime in the UK?

Oh man, why can't we have lesbians and refugees. Who decided top aussie blokes, hairdressers and 'promotions models' were good television?

Instead of american soaps/talk shows/re-runs we get british ones. And neighbours. At least it makes you hang out for the news at 12.

Now that I think about it, we did have refugees last year. Who was the Kraut that was on BB last year? Mervin, Marlin, or something.
And this year, we've had quite a bit of lesbionic activity, with Miss Piggy's ugly sister (a.k.a. "Christie") and Kate masturbating in the sauna and everywhere else, and the girls touching each others boobs like they didn't have a set of their own (well in Kate's case we can forgive her for being curious).

I can't believe it, my co-worker just bought a car for $18431. Isn't that crazy!
