Christine Brown Woolley: Nacho Sister Wife Anymore
jennblevins replied to Rhondinella's topic in Sister Wives
I dressed up as a suffragette for Halloween one year, and I think that’s pretty much the exact skirt I wore, except it was longer on me. -
Expedition Unknown - General Discussion
jennblevins replied to Meredith Quill's topic in Expedition Unknown
Phil and Jessica have mentioned doing filming recently on social media (as of mid-May), so maybe it’s just not ready yet? -
Well, the Ancient Aliens Live tour has finally found its way to my city, so I’ve purchased tickets. Has anyone here been to one of these? I have no idea what to expect, other than no legroom (according to reviews of the venue).

I live in Washington state and have a two-level counter, as does one of my cousins, so it’s not just a Texas thing. I think it may be an age-of-house thing? It’s clear to me that our kitchen was remodeled about 15 years ago to open it up and put in the two-level counter, and as a result, our kitchen has all of one upper cabinet. I don’t care how much people say they want open kitchens, that’s just not enough storage!

(Bolding mine.) There’s no shame in half-assing a hobby if that’s all you have the time, money, or interest for. There is shame in letting other people support your family while sending all your money on your hobbies … and still sucking at them. Shame on so many levels.

Say What?: Commercials That Made Us Scratch Our Heads
jennblevins replied to Lola16's topic in Commercials
There’s a Hilton commercial that I’ve seen a few times where a family of 5 (2 parents, 3 kids) request but fail to receive connecting rooms at a creepy motel. (“They’re across the courtyard. Well, it’s more of an alley. But nobody’s living in it anymore.”) One of the scenes involves the parents standing in front of their window, gesturing and mouthing “Lock the door” to the kids across the alley, who see but don’t understand the message. a) Did people stop living in the alley because of the rampaging werewolves? If not, why can’t one of the parents go over and tell the kids to lock the door? b) Oldest kid appears to be a teenager. If she’s old enough to stay with her two siblings alone in a motel room overnight, she probably has a cell phone. Just call her! c) Or you could have, you know, told them to lock the door before you split up into your respective rooms … d) Not to mention about a dozen other possible methods of contact (like holding up a sign). Or the fact that you’d think the teenager might have been creeped out enough to already have locked the door. (Or just locked it because that’s what you do.) e) Even before any of these became a problem, wouldn’t most reasonable people decide to spit things up so that each room had a parent in it, if the motel is that creepy? Don’t get me wrong, connecting rooms are great, but there’s no need to exaggerate the ineptitude of your customers to infomercial-like levels in order to demonstrate that! -
Maybe Izzy is getting to the age where Derick actually has memories of doing things with his father at the same age, and thus has been thinking about his father more, hence the name.

I’ve had two different guys try variations of this line on me, and both times it baffled me why they thought saying it would suddenly make me go “Oh, well, in that case, I’m perfectly happy to sit here at home while you go put all your effort into attracting someone else.” The second time, I came thisclose to telling him no one man’s salary could ever keep up with my shopping habit, so he’d surely be okay with my finding another man to fill in where he couldn’t. But I broke up with him instead. Apparently the correct answer would have been to roll with it, and then go on TV?

S04.E05: Do You Have Condoms?

Can’t imagine why they’re having trouble finding women who want to sign up for inclusion in these relationships … -
Josh & Anna Smuggar: A Series of Unfortunate Events
jennblevins replied to maraleia's topic in Counting On
This probably says more about my taste in music than anything about Anna, but ever since Josh got shipped off to Texas, I’ve been picturing her as the woman in the Midnight Special song, showing up (in clothing distinctive enough to be identified by prisoners looking out the window) to pointlessly pester the warden about turning her man loose. I’ll be imagining the “don’t you know who I am?” line as part of this, now, making it even funnier. -
The Lonely Js Club: James, Jackson & Johannah
jennblevins replied to SpaghettiTuesdays's topic in Counting On
I assume Josh didn’t go because either a) they knew he couldn’t hack it and would be revealed as a whiny baby rather than a stoic crown prince, or b) he was busy in some variety of Jesus Jail at the time. JD was probably too busy actually being useful to spend that much time away from the family. No idea about Jed.
