Why is it that the guests on 'Come Dine With Me' insist on going snooping around their host's bedroom and underwear drawers???
I know it's for entertainment but that doesn't force them to try on people's underwear and things :eek: [disgust]

Ha, ha! Think Northerner is a Y-Front chap - can't quite envisage him in pink frillies but I bet he HAS got hidden depths. That programme is not something I watch myself but I think I would love that rooting about bit as it brings out the voyeur which is in everyone! I did enjoy a programme that used to be on a few years ago with Dame Edna. Can't remember what it was called but she went into someone's home and literally pulled it to bits. Nothing was sacred - she would empty everything from their bedside drawer to the toaster on to the middle of the floor. It was a real cringe programme but so funny [lol]

The things people do now a days for kicks. Beyond belief
Im sure the draw with all the bills and paperwork in would be much more telling about who they are ;)

Never in my life have I worn a Jock strap. However, pink frillies..........[lol]

If you know it's for entertainment, why are you questioning it?
I guess you are a friend of Joxville's.

It was a rhetorical question; I was merely posting a thread about something which gets to me about the programme.
No, I don't know Joxville.

Do you know the meaning of "rhetorical" Turquoise?
No?
I don't know Joxville either.

Yes, I do. Thank you.
Why exactly are you asking these questions? It was a light-hearted thread. :confused

Would you be fishing for information, Moira?
Yes, I do. Thank you.

Ok, I accept that.
I just wondered why you were posing "rhetorical" questions whilst still looking for an answer.
Would you be fishing for information, Moira?
No of course not Stavro. Why on Earth would I do that?

I was opening a discussion on a subject, not actually asking a question.
Does it really matter that much to you, that you would bother asking such irrelevant questions in the first place?
No? Thank goodness, I'm off to bed!

Thanks to all for their input. :)

Well here we have Turquoise starting a thread, not necessarily a heavy-weight topic such as 'Global Warning Propaganda' or others, but a light-hearted one on a very popular programme. Then along comes the thread police and the person in question downs every comment Turquoise has made with cheeky inverted comma comments at every turn. If you aren't one of the cherished "we can speak whatever trock we want and get a pat on the back at every turn" posting brigade then you get shot down in flames.
Anyway rant over. It has been bugging me for months that some posters get downed at every turn but I think I must have got straight out of bed and onto my soapbox this morning. Off it now, thank you.

Thank you very much indeed - my feelings entirely!!
I hate the belittling that goes on here constantly, where people are made to feel like fools for having bad spelling, grammar, etc. I have seen in the past, so many times, people being made to feel stupid and it turns out they are dyslexic. It needs to stop.
It is bullying, plain and simple.
Cannot understand the need to look through what other folk have - every time come back from the Mainland neighbour arrives as start to unpack car and desperate to see what has been brought back, other folks shopping holds no interest to me personally.
My pal who moved here a couple of years ago (lives about 26 miles away) cannot get over her neighbours offering to hold her keys whist she is away - they openly say to her that they want to have a good scran through her house and with her away they have the chance! Needless to say she does not hand over her keys to the neighbours - leaves them with me as knows I am not interested in looking.
Not only am not interested, would not be so rude as to even think about invading someones personal property and space, that would be equivalent to having a burglar go through everything - the ultimate rape as far as I am concerned.

Me neither Pat, except I'll admit to gawping at other people's trolleys in the supermarket queue!
Slightly OT....last week I had an online food delivery. The driver dumped loads of bags and went off for more, despite my yelling "Hang on! I don't think this can all be mine!"
I'd not ordered that much and started rootling through the bags to see if there were extra items I'd not ordered, to discover it was all part of someone else's order, with stuff like steaks, pineapple and watermelon..... sadly not mine! The only thing we had in common was a packet of oatcakes! :lol:
I've no interest whatsover in looking at other folks' personal things and wouldn't want them looking in my underwear drawer either.:(
I see the org a bit like an underwear drawer of the mind. :eek: We expose more about ourselves on here than we would be likely to do in the supermarket. Does'nt stop us loooking though. Nosey sods. :Razz

Have just picked up this thread again and cannot believe the arrogance of this post. Not content with previously trying to score points on the thread originator, this person then has the audacity to try and close the thread because she has finished with it. A glance at the threads would tell you that most of them are simply conversation pieces and not to be taken seriously so I can only assume that there is an underlying reason for this bad-tempered strop. I hope that new orgers won't be dissuaded from participating in discussion for fear of being ridiculed by people who should know better.
