ME

Where's the connection

Wow I love the overuse of the word phobia


Unique!

10 different phobias are mentioned, out of the 19 housemates that are mentioned here.

I never quite understood Rebecca's sense of smell fact. Is it that everything smells like vinegar to her now or is vinegar the only thing she's able to smell??

Does this include fake crying?

I took it as vinegar is the only thing she can smell

We should ask him! Hey Raph, is this true?
