What makes you think they're sick?

What makes you ask?

Still going on, but it might be on a loop now.  The most interesting bit was them threatening to Block people for disagreeing.  Poor old Dave Mojo didn't last long.

That's the problem with freedom of speachspeech ~ all well and good if the party line is being followed

I’m afraid that happens on both sides.

What makes you ask?

I asked because the word can have many different meanings and I wanted your definition. Taking the word out of your sentence we are left with "Who the hell do these people think they are." Which suggests to me that you think they are taking it upon themselves to do or say something which they have no right to do.

Describing them as "sick" suggests you think they are in less than perfect health. Do you think they are ill in body or mind perhaps?

It was recommended to us.  It would have been hypocritical to join a conversation about it without at least making the effort to watch it.
Does it not dismay you even slightly that the twins became subjects for scrutiny.  It certainly does me.

I’m surprised you couldn’t work that one out for yourself.

I was just trying to work out exactly what was meant by the use of that word. It sounded a lot like a slur to me, but perhaps I misunderstood.

Oh right, you were hoping Brietta would self incriminate herself.

Personally I think it takes a sick mind to come up with the idea that Gerry transported his dead daughter back to England in his hand luggage as if he were a bush meat smuggler, but that’s just me.

Had I the time or the inclination to define "sick" for you I might give some thought to helping you out but I have neither.

Anyway ~ apart from my syntax ~ what did you think of the performance it seems few were able to suffer for very long?
