The only hope to 20-something's wanting to prove to the rest of the country that their ego is bigger than everyone else's, in order to bring fame and fortune to their otherwise hopeless lives (with the exception of Pop Idol and X-Factor). In the big brother house, the problems occur when these people realise they are not being noticed and, as a result, have to make a point of this by shouting, screaming, wailing, yelling and getting as drunk as possible in order to try and convince people they are 'really entertaining'. As a result, the public decides to vote them out, meaning that when they face eviction they begin to make out they had already planned to walk out anyway, and that they felt that they had already had enough of living with people they just don't get on with.
Big brother is portrayed as a reality tv show when, in reality, it is not. Free food, free drinks (including alcohol), shelter, no need to work, housemates you don't like (but still want to f***) and regular silly tasks 24 hours of the day does not sound like reality, unless of course you are an art student at the University of Birmingham. The only time you really feel you are seeing reality is on eviction night, when the housemate faces their partner and finally remembers "oh shit, i wish i didn't do that" and you get a look from their partner that says "you're in for it. just wait 'til we get home..."

Day 22, 4.02am in the big brother house. After a day of arguing about chicken, the housemates have finally gone to bed.

Pretty much government since the Cold War has begun. Yet, contrary to democrat/liberal belief George Bush isn't the only one who has done wiretapping because other notable Democrat presidents that have illegally wiretapped are Jimmey Carter and Bill Clinton.
Guy 1: Hey, Vincent Foster was totally killed by Big Brother.
Guy 2: Ya, Clinton sure wanted to screw that dude up but Bush is letting me get full cavity searched at the airport.

1. The panoptical force of civil design and engineering that facilitates the proliferation of its own systematically reinforced ideological dogma both overtly and surreptitiously into every conceivable facet of the cognitive and behavioral patterns of the population over which it presides
2. The character in the novel '1984' from which the term is derived
3. Colloquial term for one's older male sibling
4. A shitty TV show

1. Be careful, dude. Big brother is watching.
2. Nobody heard what Big Brother
was saying. It was merely a few words of encouragement restoring
confidence by the fact of being spoken.
3. My big brother is here to pick me up. Act natural.
4. I like to watch Big Brother cause they stupid on that show.

The one who by not being is and by not knowing knows and that, by not being or knowing, lives as the primal cause of everything and the final cause of nothing.

1. Typically with lower-case initials, one's older sibling of the male sex.
2. Figurehead of the totalitarian government of the superstate of Oceania in George Orwell's final and most famous novel, 1984. Not an "actual" person in the world of the novel, rather a generic middle-aged male face staring out of countless posters, telescreens and so on. The accompanying legend reminds anyone present, "Big Brother is Watching You." Projects an image of the government as omnipresent, omniscient, and allegedly benign. Shortened to an affectionate "B.B." in the novel in colloquial speech, and in the daily ritual of the Two Minute Hate.
3. Figurative description of intrusive government or bureaucracy.
4. At least one television series of the genre known as "reality TV", in which an assorted group of people are obliged for a time to live together in a house being watched through cameras that broadcast their lives together to the watching public. Such a series is typically held as a competition where the public or a smaller group may vote a member out of the house at regular intervals, with a reasonably large cash prize awaiting the resident who stays longest.

Fred is Jeremy's big brother.
(Final line of novel): He loved Big Brother.
Big Brother is watching us again, so get your tax forms in on time.
I hope that harridan Jemima is voted out of the season of Big Brother as soon as possible.
