26 Answers
Ive mentioned the mistreatment of Mikey before - particulary from nicole..
I just cant believe what im hearing to be honest with you - i can almost feel myself wanting to shout at the TV.
They actually disgust me. I cant believe they can be so arrogant and rude.

Mikey is a complete and utter a*sehole.
He's blind ffs, and insisting on being in the task is jeopardising it for the rest of them - he was prancing around at the back of a group like a demented spastic.
This bloke makes me want to vomit - I can't stand the way he talks (shouts), I can't stand the way he eats (I can't see my own mouth, yet I manage to eat without getting my food smeared all around my chops), I can't stand his frightening smile, I can't stand the way he touches food that he expects other people to eat - he is just an all round nasty piece of work.
And I couldn't give a monkey's that he's blind, if he had spoken to my girlfriend like that I would have found it very hard not to give him a smack.
The thing that is really getting on my nerves is that people are scared to nominate him just because he is a disabled, which is worrying because it means he's probably going to win.
And whilst you may moan about Rex and Nicole, at least they are prepared to have a go back at him - so in that respect they are treating him more like somebody who doesn't have a disibility than the rest of them.
Effing 'orrible creepy cretin.

I dont agree on using the words spastic to describe anyone flip flop. I dont like Mikey but he has every right to do the tasks, that is what BB is all about, if he was saying I cant do it, I cant do it and moaning then people would dislike him even more for going into there with a disability and not doing it. He is giving his all. But I do agree without the blindness I find him quite rude. And if he wins it will just be because he is blind.
okay fair enough but it must not be nice to be excluded from every task, he has been unable to do virtually any task thus far.
I realise that people have issues about mikey sloppiness, this is because the blindness makes him overly tactile and he replaces his sight with touch, smell and taste. as he lives in a world of blackness he cannot see others, when sighted people eat they are aware of social etiquette in eye contact and mirroring behaviours.
my son has severe sensory issues, he can see but relies heavily on his sense of smell and touch, he finds looking at things very painful.
I went on too long but I just wanted to clarify that some people are not deliberatly sloppy

Yes, he does have every right to do the tasks - but as he is at an obvious disability to do the tasks, he should have the grace to decide not to do them for fear of jeopardising the rest of the group.
If they fail because of his disability, then he has been extremely selfish - they stand a far far better chance of succeeding without him, and should they succeed without him he would still have the benefit of the luxury shopping budget.
Irrespective of whether people find it discriminatory or not, the fact remains that pretty much all of the tasks require sight - a sense that he no longer possesses - and therefore his participation runs the risk of screwing it up for the rest of them. I find this extremely selfish.
If there was a housemate with no legs and there was a task to hop up and down on one leg, that housemate wouldn't be able to do the task - as far as I can tell, the Thriller task is pretty much the same thing. At one point last night he was facing the wrong way fer christ's sake.
He's an idiot.

Flip -Flop everyone is entitled to their own opinion of housemates, which is fine, and to be honest Mikey has peeved me in the past but you talk of passing the task as if its a life or death situation. Its just a task!
Do you not think that BB would take into account the fact that Mikey may not be able to keep up or keep in time with others due to his disability? Are you aware that he is blind and not brain dead or paralysed? Tasks are marked on the whole event not just the final performance.
What he said to Nicole was spot on and the reason why Rex said nothing is because he knew Mikey was right. Tyhe fact that you would resort to violence just beacuse some said your high maintenance girlfriend was up her own @rse, just shows what sort of person you are. Do you think hitting a blind person is fair?

Flip Flop you discust me.
Sounds like you are prejudice about disabled people. Why shouldn't he be in the task? it was for housmates & he is one? you are the ar$ehole idiot ffs.
Nicorex having a go back, you've got this wrong too, they always start it (nilole decided to speak to mikey like a 4yr old from word go) to which mikey defends himself and puts his very viable points to them. How dare she tell mikey he's doing it wrong when she too was doing it wrong.
The housemates haven't voted him out because they like him.
You sound like the kind of person creap who would make my skin crawl.. eeuukkk u r discusting.

Im no big fan of mikeys but the reality is that rachel taking time to show mikey the moves was all that was needed by task master rex.
his and his girlfriends lack of acknowledging the problems mikey has is down to their ignorance and lack of empathy.
whilst he is a member of the house he should be allowed to try to participate with the tasks, big brother will give some allowances for mikeys additional needs.
flipflop, there is no need to regard him as subnormal because he has difficulties that you find difficult to comprehend.

I can understand how some might be angry at how Rex and Nicole treated Mikey last night but the thing is Rex asked Mikey HOW he should teach him which i thought was a fair question!
Did Mikey want him to just tell him the dance moves or physically show him by moving him round like a puppet.
The thing is if these people haven't been around a blind person before then they won't know how to treat him will they? And also Mikey isn't scared about speaking up about most things so why cant he just say to someone 'Show me like this..'
I think sometimes Mikey's pig headedness about being able to do things when it is obvious he cant (remember the icing incident in the cake task) puts people off helping him.
I know it would put me off is he kept insisting he could do it.
