@ callme this is a serious question - does she have a big heart to you because you already know her? How does she treat a stranger on the street?

Very fair question, and the truth is I can't say for sure. She is friendly and has time for people even if there isn't an immediate gain for her for doing so. She is very blunt and tells it how it is (nothing new there), but she is kind hearted and I have seen her listen attentively and give advice thoughtful advice to people she has only just met... I guess it's hard to assess how she is to strangers as I am not one, and how friendly is anyone to these random people??

I remember years ago I would often see her and her girlfriend at the time going to a local plaza and playing with all the local kids... she is such a natural with kids, I can't imagine her not being a mother some day. That is a different issue, but related... I think it shows her big heart that she would volunteer her time to playing with kids and really enjoy doing so.
 
Tell me about it. If we could vote to evict I'd vote so many times to ensure I wouldn't have to endure witnessing anymore of her tantrums on tv.

So you want and think everyone should fit the same mold?
We should all act in a pre defined manner when dealing with stress?
Who defines the parameters of such a thing?

Tully is acting the way a normal person would when faced with loss of liberty

Loss of liberty? I did read your heartfelt post about prison. I can understand the angst and sadness at the loss of liberty there. Although, you know, there was a crime committed and all. And you were put there against your will. As a punishment.

But comparing the BB House with all the mod cons, freedom to walk around at will, company, etc to being in prison is a pretty silly thing to do.

She's not lost her liberty! She won a spot on a show that thousands and thousands of people would give a leg to be on. And she's whining and crying and lumbering around like Lurch.

Like I've said before, I do hope she pulls it together. But if she doesn't, I don't see her lasting very long.

There are two men. One is an an abusive tool and he gets his finger copped off. One is a nice guy and he also gets his finger chopped off. Who is going to feel the most pain?

What a load of shyte, I don't care how they look, they could look like a bag of shit but if they are entertaining me as a viewer I will like them.

At the start I don't like Tahan because she complained because she lost her clothes etc.

At least Tahan had the guts to finish the ice bath challenge. Tahan has turned it around & decided to go with the flow. (that may change, but at least she has made an effort.)

Tully hasn't made any effort to change, it just crying & whining & that isn't entertaining.

So you are against strong women who arent afraid to show emotion?

Initially people were supporting Tully for being a strong, honest woman (eg standing up to Tim) in the first few days. The ones that are hating on her now are doing so due her more recent behaviours.

Tahan initially seemed to attract a lot of negativity for the plastic 'I can't live without my hairdryer' pouting, but she has now built a following as she has shown an intelligent, perceptive and strategic mind (although I don't like her).

intelligent? She judges people on their weight and looks. Intelligent people dont do that

Okay, but did you read the rest of my post? Likening the BB house to prison is laughable.

She knew what she was in for. She needs to HTFU.

Yeah I know! They'd get so much more money off us if it was vote to evict. Last year particularly I would have voted way more times than just towards the end.

...I understand every BB series needs a villian and it is quite clear they have chosen Tully as this...

Not in a million years. BBAU is a politically correct show ergo a lesbian girl/woman/female will never be chosen to be the villain by the producers. If anything, she will be supported through edits and many other little tricks to go deep or even win the competition.
 
Tully is a stirrer, faking sympathy and a confessional tone in order to be nosy.

'I'm just checking to see if you're all right. 'Cos it's only going to get worse.'

Yeh, thanks for that.

Why does tully walk like she's holding two invisible suitcases? her arms barely swing while she is walking. It's like the weird women from the seinfeld episode whom Elaine suggested to that she should swing her arms a little when she walks around the office so that people wouldn't ridicule her.

on another note how familiar do these descriptions sound?

http://calgaryautism.com/characteristics.htm
Characteristics of autism

-Laughs, cries or throws a tantrum for no apparent reason.
-Resists change in the environment (people, places, objects).
-An emotional incident can determine the mood for the day - emotions can pass very suddenly or are drawn out for a long period of time.
-Becomes overwhelmed with too much verbal direction.
-Tends to either tune out or break down when being reprimanded.
-Calmed by external stimulation - soothing sound, brushing, rotating object, constant pressure (hammock, rolled in a blanket).
-May need to be left alone to release tension and frustration

Of course many of these characteristics and sensory issues can vary from person to person.

As a teacher of special needs kids I can generally pick children/adults who have autism and aspergers just from observing simple interactions.

I can safely say that Tully does NOT have Autism.

People are hating on Tully because she isnt your typical hot girl.

Tahan has acted like a right twat but gets away with it because the plastic weirdo is seen as hot.

I think you're insulting your favourite HM with this comment moreso than anyone else has in this thread. I've honestly not felt at all that dislike for Tully comes from that sort of place, it's purely what we've seen on tv and you could argue that Heidi can't get away with much because she's the stereotypical big loud girl we've had so much over the years and seemingly have a low threshold for. If Heidi was acting as bad as Tully has been I bet you this thread would be double the amount of pages.

I think the biggest thing that disturbs me is her constant hugging and touching of people and making sure they feel she's their super best friend and she'll use this to make others feel outcasted from her inner circle. Then she furthers their alienation from the main group by planting negative seeds in other hm's about this person, we saw this with constant remarks about Mik and this week it's Rohan and I would like to see her stay in the house because it is interesting to watch but it also feels very much like a high school complex that has stayed with her for far too long.
