I think it says a lot, too, that one of the reasons she supposedly doesn't want to contact her family because she thinks they'll believe that she's faking.
They know she’s faking and she implied she doesn’t call them, or they don’t accept her calls, for that very reason. I can only imagine how many calls from the hospital they have received over the past decade. They are done indulging that aspect of her nonsense.
It’s a shame we will probably never get any information about Vicky, except from Vicky. I think her interactions IRL are limited to her parents, and people paid to deal with her - medical staff, NYU staff, etc…
I’ve found it very suspicious that with all the mentions of roommates over the years none have ever popped up on her Twitter, this thread, etc… When someone makes a minor spectacle of themselves on SM you usually have people who got caught up in their BS IRL crop up to sound off. It’s a shame her brother doesn’t drop by the thread.
Given how disassociated and almost anonymous roommates can be in NYC, esp among NYU students, I don’t discount the idea she has had many roommates. In her favor is the fact many NYU roommates could be foreign, ignore her and have zero curiosity about stinky girl in her room 24/7.
I barely knew several roommates I had in NYC but that was because nobody was ever at home except to sleep or shower. Maybe things have radically changed but absolutely nobody stayed in their tiny, stifling, little rooms unless they were asleep. The idea of someone staying in their apt bedroom for days is bizarre and I’d think they died (but would ignore it unless a terrible smell emerged)
Vicky must be a totally friendless, munchie shut-in in the big apple for mysterious reasons.
If I had any digital video or animation talents I’d do a two minute video called Sexless in the City about Vicky. The fat trust fund Pooner neet in a power chair who has no friends, no job and never leaves her apartment unless it’s to try and get a hospital to admit her. You’d have exciting episodes like, the ten day bowel cleanse for a colonoscopy, the saga of losing condiments bedsheets and how big the bedside trash mountain gets before a cleaning service is called in. It really would be the perfect Zoomer update/rebrand for the series.
