MSG!! I LOVE MSG!! Meow.
 

And yet carbonara and ofe-onugbu aren’t cooked with MSG. You will not even bake banana bread with MSG.

…I did find that a very uncomfortable/upsetting type watch…annoying for them all yes with the volume level …but that was beyond…

…even just looking at the still/the paused image there…how unsettled she looks is …quite upsetting…

…I didn’t quite understand the meow bit at the end…whether she was saying…‘you’re all being catty and horrid, please stop…it’s upsetting me…’…

…they did show great catty and bitchy determination though in the face of such difficulty…:laugh:…credit to their devotion to continue…

I think it was Lily's way of showing she agreed and understood, rather than just saying so.

…yeah, you’re probably correct, I can see that now…but I think that I had completely closed down by then in watching because it had been a long day and it was just….a lot/too much to be able to apply thought to…

It’s time for her to go.

That was so irritating to watch, i can't imagine what it's like being trapped in there with her

…but is it, though…I think that she has a fairly big fan base from the Live show reaction throughout the season…it ain’t over until the chocolate lady screams….as they say…

Yeah, I think she’ll be first out. She has a lot more haters. In a VTS she’d be safe. Luckily for us it’s VTE.

Imagine how much she’d ramp it up in the final week too. All we’ll see is her screaming every night. I don’t want to watch that.

…you gave Lily to me as a sweepstake and I’ve had to champion her all season and say…no, no it’s not a problem, what is wrong with those moany and whinging housemates saying she’s annoying…you’ve got a lot to answer for, mister…you owe me big time…BIG TIME…

what are you on about?

she is talking about Chinese food

…it was actually quite upsetting to see her so…unsettled…

This is the first time I've not liked her. She's very worrying. I fear for her mental health almost. She needs to go. She's lost herself the win in my book. Others deserve it more.

Me neither, if it had gone on much longer last night I would have switched channel until she stopped

You are so two faced! Vile!

:dog:

I feel viciously attacked

:joker:

I don't get it though really... The world excuses Ali's behaviour because she has the shield of having mild autistic traits because of her ADHD, but everyone hates Lily when she shows far more extreme behaviours because of her...

Has she ever said what she actually has going on?

Ali's face at the end cracks me up.

i think she was highlighting the effect that additives have on your body. I didn't really get the meow though :laugh: 🐯

…(…I think that it feels like…)…a struggle with self discipline, she may have been more ‘enabled’ by reassurances that it’s all acceptable, rather than being given focus and structure because we all know that’s what is best responded to, in terms of someone learning about their own selves but also in having awareness of others around you and how your own behaviour etc, impacts them…plus, she’s said that she’s very much within her own group and not had experiences of social situations/more diverse group situations…I would say that she herself struggles with that and the group dynamics and really is at a loss at how to express it/her own frustrations…but you’re completely right, it’s all about how behaviour impacts others/the group, no matter what contributes are…

…I think as Baz said…the meows were how she expressed agreement to what was being said…one meow was equivalent to yes, yes…:laugh:…I mean, on a meow scale…?…no matter how difficult her outburst was to watch…?….much less difficult and awkward than George and Rula…

A series highlight

Yes
then she can cry.



It will be a good experience
for this 20-year-old Lady

it's very similar to "i'm cooking an egg for the very first time"

…it’s more similar to …how many decibels to crack an egg…?…plus to burst a group of human eardrums…it will become an iconic moment, I know that…and hopefully the housemate’s hearing capabilities will survive enough damage to be able to re-watch those iconic moments for much time to come…

I just get the impression that it's deeper than that.

Not attempting to diagnose her but it just feels that she has something going on... Her uncontrolled episodes just feel deeper than just a lack of self discipline.

I am surprised that it hasn't been talked about in these terms more. Maybe if she openly spoke about it all it would have been.

I think she was just jealous Ali and Nathan are hanging out and like a small child tried to get attention

it was rather pathetic to witness

She's just a big Sam Kinison fan and was doing an impression

…it feels like a rotating circle, really…to speak about any of how she deals with frustrations and emotions etc…she would, I think…have to see it as a struggle…?…but I agree with what was said on the Live show last night..it feels as though she’s been more enveloped in a blanket of enabling…/…a no, no just carry on being yourself etc…when actually, it doesn’t feel to me, that she’s happy within herself in how she seems to struggle…it’s not about being critical or cruel or blunt or whatever term, it’s about helping her to understand as well because I doubt she does…she releases in the way she does because it’s all she knows…?…but doesn’t seem to actually visibly show any release…she still looks ‘tormented’ with those frustrations to me…

I’m a bit confused
Are you saying that’s a real reaction and not someone faking it for the camera

You think Chinese food is the only type that can use MSG?

No but that is what this thread is about - Lily works in a Chinese restaurant

I agree that's def where Lily has heard of it.

Not speaking for Ammi but I personally think it is real yes.

Annoying, but real.
