Laughing AT or WITH the twins? - The X Factor

The Lost Boy · 09-11-2009, 16:42

AT because they are an insult to music and wouldn't be out of place in a circus stood next to the bearded lady. You use the time they are on stage to empty your bladder.

or

WITH becasue they know how carp they are and don't take themselves too seriously and are just there for a laugh.

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????

jon_ellacott · 09-11-2009, 16:43

Sorry but AT!

kenda11 · 09-11-2009, 16:44

at...but i spend the time they're on with my hands over my eyes...rocking and going"aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh"

Glorfindel · 09-11-2009, 16:45

WITH!

They know they're not very good. I know they're not very good. My desk lamp knows they're not very good.

But...they make it work. They're endearingly shambolic and enthusiastic.

xTonix · 09-11-2009, 16:45

I'm crying

I don't laugh with or at them, they just annoy me, they maybe nice guys but I am just sick of them being there now, it was funny the first time, maybe the 2nd, but now it's beyoud a joke.

Unigal07 · 09-11-2009, 16:45

Unfortunately, "at" them. I shouldn', but then they shouldn't be in a "singing competition" (Simon's words, not mine). I'd like them in BGT.

xenosys · 09-11-2009, 16:46

Mainly AT to be honest, but you couldn't help but laugh when they were bobbing up and down in that car last weekend.

MissMatch · 09-11-2009, 16:50

I'm laughing WITH them. They want people to find them funny and entertaining and it's working.

Lizzy11268 · 09-11-2009, 16:56

With them all the way. Why not? They are funny lovely people. Not many of those around, better make the most of the ones we find!

Strictly_Irish · 09-11-2009, 16:58

With, of course.

Anyone laughing AT them is clueless.

GetMeOuttaHere · 09-11-2009, 17:02

Neither as I can see its win for everyone. Even those that get voted off against the lads. If the contestants that are voted off are that talented someone somewhere will spot them and want to offer them work.

I laugh AT them, but I also feel sorry for them because they are manipulated by General Zod for cash purposes.

ballyclark · 09-11-2009, 17:13

After last night I have some sympathy for them.

Cowell pretty much humiliated them, albeit in a backhanded way.

Syntax Error · 09-11-2009, 17:23

If I was Jedward's father, I'd pull them out of the show, because they are being manipulated & the only winner will be General Zod.

spendleb · 09-11-2009, 17:36

Cringing maybe ?? Certainly not laughing......

Malc London · 09-11-2009, 17:40

Not even laughing AT them any more.

Be chucking things AT them soon.

rivercity_rules · 09-11-2009, 18:02

With, they are my main source of entertainment on this entertainment show.

If the show was really about new artists being discovered and not about entertainment, the only original song ever performed by a contestant would NOT be Chico Time.

No, it's Touch My Bum

Kapellmeister · 09-11-2009, 18:06

Neither. Have never laughed with them or at them. They don't entertain me in the slightest and they never, ever have done.

Daewos · 09-11-2009, 18:06

Started with, now at - stretched the joke too far - just embarassing to watch, knowing that they are there for all the wrong reasons. Like the weird acts they insist on having on BGT - not there because they have a chance to win, but because everyone will talk about them next day, and not in a good way.

jackee-spyker · 09-11-2009, 18:15

I must admit i have only just started watching this and those two lads looked seriously peed off when it was announced they were through, i think they went in for a joke and are amazed at how far they have got, wouldn't suprise me if they were two brothers playing a part and ripped that silly hair off at the end and shouted "Its all a joke, we proved it".

Am i the only person who imagines Cowell is secretly giggling to himself at how guillable people are for ringing these rip off phoneline things? Nobody vote and lets see how smiley the little nose wipe is then.
