Knots
Follow-up to Social Viewing from Bloggle
I can now say that I've seen two episodes of The X-Factor (soon to be three). This shameful admission needs to be seen in the context of being friendly towards my housemates.
The situation I find myself in is this:
Initially I was pretending to like the show but wasn't very good at it, giving the impression that I disliked it.
However such was my difficulty in prentending to like it that my housemates think I'm doing that thing of pretending to dislike something whilst secretly harbouring a love for whatever that thing may be.
Whereas in reality I do actually dislike the X-Factor but am pretending to to do that thing of pretending to dislike the X-Factor whilst secretly harbouring a love for the show in order to justify watching it.
Of course, you have no way of knowing whether I actually really do like the X-Factor but am pretending to dislike it and do that thing of pretending to dislike the X-Factor whilst secretly harbouring a love for the show in order to justify watching it.

…and even if you were, we have no way of knowing whether or not you like doing the thing where you really like the X-Factor but are pretending to dislike it and do that thing of pretending to dislike the X-Factor whilst secretly harbouring a love for the show in order to justify watching it.
Of course, we could always ask.

Tis true. Perhaps I should just have said that my dislike of the show supercedes all pretences.
