I was just watching Danny and Chiara hiding a bottle of wine, and then Roddy and Chiara hiding
beer in the HOH room. What do you think they would
say if amy and Mar did that? Do you think anyone will say anything?

Well when they do it's okay, but when Amy does it she's being selfish.

I think they are totally justified. There seems to be a certain someone who can't stop at just one and will drink everyone's share if given the chance.

Given the history of some HG's taking more than their share...I don't blame them for making sure noone takes their share...they are not taking anyone else's other than those that know what is going on.

Missy..the problem is that Amy takes more than her share...that I believe is selfish.

Aren't most of them selfish? Think Josh wanting to cook all of the food at the luau..... Josh wanting to be the first to eat the Mexican dinner, even though he has been eating hearty all week. Gerry getting up early in the am for leftovers. Not to mention everyone backstabbing and closet fighting to get $500,000? The game is a game - it's all about being selfish. IMHO, Amy has been singled out for it - even though everyone is. Mom's don't leave their kids for three months unless there is something in it for them - selfish! People don't leave their jobs hanging, unless they are ultimately trying to win the money - selfish! Every human being, including dear Jason is selfish in his or her own way - it's human nature.

I don't think the bottle of wine under chiara's
bed is just her share.

The difference there Kapow is that they are given only a limited amount of food and drinks that is supposed to be divided amoungst all of them Could you imagine a person on survivor eating more than their share of food, and what it would do to them in the game. Well in this game getting along with people is about the perception that you give the other HG's. She has shown herself to be selfish when it comes to ddrinking... from the very first night in the trees when she popped that beer open.

I like Amy a lot, but I'd probably hide a bottle of wine from her too if I lived with her in that situation. I don't like Chiara at all, but I think she's planning on sharing that bottle with other guests rather than drinking the majority of it herself.

Tippet..you are right..it's Danielle's, Josh's, Roddy's,Erics...Lisa's..etc.. and most of them are aware that it is there as she has told them... Since we have not seen any of the others take more than their share...how can you assume that this is what they will do.

Again..they have done this because another HG has regularly taken more than their share and it's not like they can just go to the store and get more...

Perhaps they realize that Amy *may* have a drinking problem and are trying to help her not embarrass herself further.

I hear ya Keiffer. I understand what you are saying. However, shouldn't the other HG's confront her at the time of the misbehavior rather than waiting until she has taken their share and complaining behind her back? Seems like if it was me and I wanted a glass or two of my share of wine, I would say so. I feel like the other hg's waited until she took their share (which she may have done thinking they did not want it since they did not say anything) to trash her about it. Sure - no one should take more than their share, but if it not clear about "shares" and giving away shares, how is one to tell? Especially a youngster like Amy who has only been legal for a while and still thinks a fun night out is drinking? Please know that I am not trying to excuse her behavior - just trying to present another angle. Add into that that Miss Amy is used to getting things her way - no excuse again, but a life pattern to take into consideration before trashing her.

Tippet.. how do you know that Amy hasn't already done that? Maybe there were 4 bottles of wine to begin with..

Come on Kapow I hear what you are saying about no excuses, but you are trying to justify, or lessen the probelm. Just like last night people saying that Marcellas should have stopped Amy from drinking so much at dinner, and now talking about how HG's should stop her before she does something bad. Sound like Minority Report. They should not have to be in a situation were they ahve to anticipate what Amy is going to do, and stop her from doing it to imrove her placement in the game.

What - Maybe they want some Alcohol for themselves. Would you give it up with the drinking problem thing already?

LOL Ryan...are you kidding...what else would there be talk talk about.

Ryan they are all closet alkies fars I'm concerned. Hiding booze for themselves from the others just shows they are selfish. I'm glad I turned my feeds off last night. Sickos

No Keiffer, all I am saying is that drinking is Amy's demon for now. Hopefully she will outgrow it. She may not and have a lifetime of fighting it. If so, i am sorry for her. However, it does look like she was set up early on by other hg's to play her as the "drunk".

Marcellus has no obligation for stopping her drinking at dinner - that is her choice. My take is that she knew she was going and decided to live it up in her way. She is the only one with control over her behavior. Nothing I said indicated that anyone but Amy was responsible for her behavior. However - I do feel that some of the other hg's may have given Amy "silient assent" to their share of alchohol by not drinking it. She may have seen it there and decided that if they were not going to drink it, she would. We all know that from time to time hg's lose the food in their house to BB elves until after competitions.

As to your comment about Minority Report - you are talking to the wrong person. I believe each person holds responsibility for his or her own behavior.

I agree with Kapow's first post....why are they all so passive-aggressive? If I wanted a drink I would say," Hey Amy, can you save me a glass please? Thanks."


And as far as everyone telling Marcellas to not have let her drink so much, he's not her babysitter and none of them should be either. She's a grown adult and needs to learn her own lessons, but some never learn.

Hiding liquor is traditionally something an alcoholic does. When I saw the title of this thread, I assumed Amy was doing it. How sad that the other players are doing it. I guess many in the house are desperate for their booze!

Agreed Miz, I felt that the other hg's were baiting her with their alcohol. Regardless, they seem to have won. So, Miss Amy will never be hungry again! (not that she was, that just seemed fitting!) LOL

Maybe they are just hiding it from Amy because they feel she doesn't need anymore booze. They do all seem to think she has a problem...it wouldn't be the first time one roommate (or roommates) hid booze from another roommate "for their own good".

I'm not saying that IS their motive, just throwing that out as a possibility, since I haven't read where anyone has actually heard the reasoning behind the mystery of hidden hootch.
