Love Island 2018

Tbh I still have no fcuking idea how this show works. Is someone going tomorrow? My telly went blink half way through. Who wants to buy me a new telly? Did Dr.Dolittledates manage to score? He gives me a concussion just looking at him

the overarching feeling i get from this show is that i don't like any of these people and I don't think i could under any circumstances. i can't even say I'm watching ironically. it's pure masochism.

First time love island watcher here and I think I’m a bit hooked already. I’ve read this thread from page 1.

Firstly, I love the nicknames. Eeyore and Dr Doolittledates are keepers (the nicknames not the people) though I do like eeyore in the eye candy stakes and I love the sound of his voice even though I’m not listening to what he’s saying.

Btw, what does ghosting mean?

Oh and I think Hayley might be a goner unless Jack saves her.

Dr death seems to have Stockholm syndrome for Samira.

Adam will choose Rosie.

Wes Laura.

Eeyore Kendall

Niall Georgia

So that leaves Jack. Unless Dani mucks it up tomorrow she should be fine.

Which means bye bye Sour Scouse!!

That's exactly how I think it'll go & I'm going to enjoy every minute of seeing that sourpuss Hayley getting booted off. (think I'm way too invested in this show :eek:)

Yeah - as there's more lads than girls the lads get to choose in the recoupling and then the girl that doesn't get picked gets the boot!! Cannot wait!!

You get coupled up or you get fvcked out. They will throw in another guy next week which will mean the girls have the decision.

It’s so simple yet so effective. I love it.

And of course he didn’t! The guy has about as much hope of scoring in there as I do with you :pac:

Ghosting is blocking someone from on all social media and mobile phone so the person on the receiving end cannot get in touch with the perpetrator.

It is quite common nowadays.

So it’s like in the olden days when someone rang the house phone or called to the door and you told whoever else was in to say you wasn’t there?

I’ve been guilty of that in my time and I’ve had it done to me too. No biggie. Why is it such a bad thing to do now though?

My experience is they don’t block you just ignore ur texts and phone calls but then the ghoster gets in contact again weeks later, such sad f*ckers.

Maybe I'm just evil but I don't see the big deal about this "ghosting" thing or the story about Doctor Strange.

So a big article about how after 4 dates he stopped seeing and speaking to a girl because she wouldn't put out. Obviously didn't like her enough to be patient (haha classic Medical puns) and was after one thing only, but who cares? Like you don't have to put out for him, but he doesn't have to stick around the same time. Bit of an arse but look. Don't get the outrage online over it really.

Also this "ghosting" craic. Somebody blocks someone from social media from talking to them. Again maybe a bit of an arse move but is it really something to be that outraged with?

Anyway, tonight, better have a full on fight. They're too tame so far. Adam for as much as I dislike him will surely provide us some entertainment.

I have used it if someone was pestering me or wouldn't take ''no '' for an answer.

So it is no big deal .. whoever went to the tabloids with the story was probably a desperado whom he couldn't shake off.

Get them hooked to the booze and cigs again. Let it get wild!

Sorry I can't remember who, but somebody asked why would Doctor Strange go on this show, and a reply was to become next Doctor Phil.

Well a friend said surely this would ruin his career and I then thought of the above comment and was thinking there he clearly wants to get famous off this and get his own E4/BBC3 style trash documentary series. The sort of ones that deal with overweight people trying to get fit, bizarre conditions or plastic surgery. Something along those lines.

Surely has to be his main goal....and love too obviously.

He's so painfully awkward on screen that there's about as much chance of that happening as there is of him getting laid on there. He's hopeless. Every conversation he has is just 100% cringe. He's surely a goner next week unless Samira is stuck and throws him a bone for saving her.

I feel like the producers know he is being discussed and will therefore try keep him in..maybe that was their thinking with the solicitor...assuming they'd get on. I think they'll try keep him. I hope So,he's the definition of car crash tv. Him creeping over his shoulder watching them kiss was just gas.

Yeah he wants to be a tv doc and reckons love island will be his platform to get onto TV

The 27-year-old has left the hospital wards behind him as he is pursuing his dream of becoming a part time medic, part time TV doctor.

Incidentally I read an article on the daily abyss dailymail the other day, and a lot of the 'personalities' from last years' series have pocketed a chunk of change since appearing on the show... if I find the article I'll add it

Edit: Here's the article


Also..
The Love Island 2018 contestants will get paid just £2.80 an hour to be on the show.... Link
