Primetimer really needs to add a barf face emoji for this one.

Yuck!!! Kootie is so worried about COVID that he forgot the real threat of West Nile Virus. https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/arizona-science/2021/10/19/west-nile-virus-human-vaccine-mosquitos-arizona/6093560001/

Tragic. A friend of mine, her 17 year old son who suffered for five years with severe depression was denied admission in May 2020 for inpatient psychiatric treatment. Despite his severe symptoms and 2 recent suicide attempts, he was sent home for his parents to deal with his severe condition. No in-person visits with psychiatrist. Why? His condition was non essential. COVID was more important. In June 2020, 3 weeks after denied admission, he hanged himself in his bedroom. He died because he was refused treatment because of nonsensical restrictions. I'm happy Ysabel is able to get the help she needs. Of course her surgery is essential and no one should judge otherwise.

Wow!! I have not seen or heard anything from the Browns that would justify a felonious assault against them. I also think it's wrong to wish severe illness or death on any of them. Sure, they are a bunch of idiots and worthy of snark, but not violence. As for Janelle dealing with COVID, it is highly likely she would do just fine. The average person who dies of COVID is over 80 years old and has at least 4 comorbidies. I know many purple in worse shape than Janelle who had no significant problems with the virus. I wish them all well when they, as we all will, catch the virus.

Okay. But would you eat the penis soup Evelyn's sisters served Cory on 90 day finance?

Interesting question. In Arizona, adultery is a misdemeanor as to both the cheating spouse and the person with whom he cheats. However, under Arizona law, adultery can only be prosecuted on the complaint of the noncheating spouse. So, bottom line, Robin holds all the cards and has Kody by the 🏀⚽️🏈🎱⚾️🏐. By that I mean, in the event of divorce of the legal union, she could try to get a leg up in a property settlement or custody by charging Kody, Meri, Christine and Janelle with adultery. Don't think she wouldn't try.

That's what I was wondering. Would the city or County even allow greenhouses there to block the view? Would greenhouses even work in that climate over 7500 feet and averaging over 120 inches of snow a year? Flagstaff doesn't seem the optimal place for a greenhouse. She didn't grow shit in Utah or Vegas and those were better growing climates , I think. Janelle is a fraud. No interest in growing squat.

Exactly. I'm married 32 years. Without great sex, what's the point? That and the intimate, close friendship. I can hire someone to do the chores. Poor Christine has none if that. Kody doesn't even help with the chores.

My dad's 80 with COPD and heart problems and even if I had full blown case of raging COVID, he would have given me a big hug and kiss and gone with me to the hospital. Why.? Because that's how loving parents act. Life is too short. COVID be damned.

^^^ This 100% ^^^

Yeah, I know. I was attempting to make fun of Christine, not to explore the finer points of social security. She likely will have too much in resources to qualify for SSI at 65 either. But there are work arounds and being the grifter she is she will likely figure out how to qualify. I don't want to give her any tips, however.

Really? Wow! In the last 6 months I have only worn a mask about 10 to 15 times and that includes time vacationing on the beach in California where things are supposedly more strict than Arizona. Last month when we were in Flagstaff no one was wearing a mask, except waiters at one restaurant.

SSI provides basic income to people who, due to disability, CANNOT work. It's not for those who DON'T WANT TO work or have no skills. Being a ditz is not a qualifying disability. Sorry Christine.

You got me. How could I forget the sisterwife's closet? That reminds me. Flagstaff is very expensive. My son and his 3 roommates pay $3400/month for 1600 sq. ft. apartment in Flagstaff. It's crap, not luxury. How in the hell can they afford 4 homes, even the rentals, and large acreage? They must have sources beyond the closet, various MLM schemes, printed legging sales,, the show, the B&B. But what? Inquiring minds want to know.

All of these things were "protocols" Kody and Robin made up. None of these things existed in Flagstaff, Arizona. The governor did close restaurants, salons, gyms, etc. for a few weeks or months. By August everything was open. No mask requirements ever, but some businesses did recommend them. Social distancing was not really a thing after May 2020. There were quarantines in jails and similar places, but outside of institutions no quarantine required. Young people like Gabe keep the country running so people like Robin could hide from reality in her closet. Who do they think prepared their food deliveries? Gabe is absolutely right, Kody/Robin rules had nothing to do with COVID. Either they wanted an excuse to avoid the family or they have severe anxiety disorder.

I really don't think Gabe is a "kid acting out." He is an adult college student with a job, a girlfriend and a life. He should not have to sit at home in isolation week after week, month after month, waiting for the rare occasion when Kody stops by for 5 or 10 minutes to say "hi." I'm glad Gabe sees Kody for who he is. His honesty will serve him well in life.

My son goes to NAU where Gabe goes. Last year all classes except labs were remote. This year all is back to normal. During the remote year, students didn't go to class but that doesn't mean they didn't socialize. They did. My son says the parties were actually larger and more frequent than pre-COVID years. They needed to be together for mental health reasons. He says everyone, he knows thousands of students, got COVID, slight fever for a day to two, mild flu symptoms. No one was hospitalized or died. No one. We personally know two teens , not NAU students, who took their lives because adequate mental health services were not available in Phoenix. They did of loneliness and lost hope. This was Gabe's experience in Flagstaff and at NAU with COVID and why I think he believes Kody's "protocols" are not really about COVID.

So did Hayley. Forever a bridesmaid indeed.

Fur sure, fur sure.

In addition to having no sense of humor, unlike Jake who is hilarious and doesn't take himself too seriously, Haley has no concept of how to act in an adult relationship. I believe Haley is around 27. She says she's been single for seven years. If my math is right, she's basically never had an actual adult relationship. I feel bad Jake has to put up with her immaturity. I think Jake was in this to find a solid long term relationship, not spend 8 weeks with a spoiled, humorless child.

Arizona is a community property state. Thus, Robin and Kody each have an undivided one half interest in the community assets. If Kody dies intestate and Robin survives, Robin gets her half of the community and Kody's half. If Robin predeceases Kody, when Kody dies intestate the assets would be divided among the children per stripes. He's probably dead broke, so the whole discussion is moot. Christine needs to enroll in community college and gets some job skills so she can support herself. I don't think Christine is a bad person. She's not lazy. She's just beaten down by polygamy. As she observes the older children in their monogamous relationships, she realizes polygamy does not work for her. She should get out while she can and find a man that loves her and only her. A man who will hold her and make sweet love to her without thinking of another woman. That's monogamy and that's what she wants.

Kody looks like he has a nice new bouncy perm. If it's "safe" to go to the salon for three hours, he can damn well spend a few minutes with his offspring, all of them.

They area all liars. There are no precaution issues in Flagstaff. Since August or before, schools open, restaurants open, gyms open. I was dining indoors in Flagstaff in June. Absolutely no reason whatsoever not to have fambly gatherings, unless of course you don't want to see your fambly. No excuse for road side anniversary and birthday dinners. COVID gives Kodick an excuse for being a crappy father, that's it.

I bet they were above the radar just enough to collect nice big stimulus checks for themselves and Kody`s spawn.

It's our 32nd in May. If my husband takes me to a rest area off I-17, you will hear about it in the news. I only need one married woman on the jury who will understand my actions were justified. (Is that why the show is titled "Can I light you up?")
