Yeah, maybe it does not matter to Meri, but she sure let us all know in the most snottiest way! She sure gets an attitude when she doesn't like someone's opinion to a question she asks. Why ask Christine what she thinks if she doesn't care what she thinks?

Maybe Meri could have pitched in a little and helped with that.....oh, wait...never mind....

This all day long!

Yes! It's great how Meri is so 'respectful of maddie's wishes' and just 'aw-shucks' shrugs her way around the foyer then leaves, but how about actually doing something useful for a change? Maybe tidy up the wrecked living room or kitchen? Start a breakfast casserole for the morning? Reassure some of the kids? Fuck you, Meri! You selfish, self-centered jerk. Go home to your wet bar.

I liked how they were all there supporting her the whole time and rooting her on. That was nice. Plus it reminded me of my labor and deliveries :)

And if I may be a bit shallow...Robyn .... OOFAH!.... What the hell? She hit the wall, hard.

Yes! Forgot about Annie! Oh I bet Christine is pissed! I'm actually learning from Christine, when someone is going down in flames (Meri, no rotation/ sexy time from Kody, no money from Kody) you can afford to look magnanimous, as if she's being protective of Meri and defending her from kody's meanness. As if. Well played Christine, too bad Meri's got your number and knows what you're doing, hence the seething ' I really don't care what Christine thinks', said through clenched teeth.

My contractions actually had a TASTE, like a sourness. I had back labor with the first, but the second almost fell out! Lol!

My husband and I were joking that had this been happening in real time, it would be funny to swoop in and buy that dump out from under her. (Making the 'gee, ain't I a devil?' Meri face)

I know, right?? Lol lol lol! We all know where we stand around here by now ;) about the face relax comment he made, that was vintage asshat Kody, but nobody was listening to him at that point so it actually made me laugh---at him., actually it always makes me laugh when everyone is actively ignoring his blathering.

I think Meri didn't know whether she was getting the family money until the moment Kody actually said she wasn't at the family meeting. Then Meri suddenly 'knew who Kody was' again, and turned back into a bitch and Christine almost peed herself with relief and got all hammy in her act of chiding Kody for 'being mean' to Meri. When Meri called everyone over, fresh off their trip to see the haunted house, I believe she was under the delusion that Kody was going to ignore the weddings they just paid for, the kids going into college, the possible back surgery for his other kid, and hand over family cash so Meri's ma can also live in a giant house..alone. When reality hit that he wasn't, Meri suddenly didn't care what Christine thought or whether she had her support. Meri. also, I think Meri paid for her haunted house by having her mom sell her place and put money towards it from the sale. P.s. As far as Kody 'being mean' to poow widdle Mewi, I would have been a hell of a lot meaner. This bitch has balls the size of Utah!

And they're all afraid to tell her that. The open, honest truth, to her face. Meri was all giddy at first because she thought Kody was going to go in on it with her. Then when he told her she's doing it alone, suddenly she 'knows who he is'. Btw, Christine acting all upset that Kody was being mean to Meri was just that, an act. Christine FLOVED that Kody told Meri no to investing fambly money in that haunted hose. She didn't fool me for a second. Then when Christine says she's not onboard with Meri's scheme, Meri says 'I don't care what they think'!...then why call them all over to your giant house to discuss it???? Meri is the worst and getting even more terrible every episode. And don't tell me, let me guess....Meri didn't live tweet today because of...insert excuse here....

Oh I actually did! I was in labor for 3 solid days with my first. The first day the hospital sent me home because I wasn't dilated enough--I was at 4, more than maddie when she was in active labor--I went home, took a hot shower and slept for about 4 hours. Got up walked on a treadmill while listening to Howard stern, went back to the hospital for the rest of it. Saving that one for tomorrow. Only so many plygs I can take in 1 night. :)

I did too, I 'got it' for second...too bad the after-labor euphoria doesn't usually last amongst the adults for very long...

And please don't all think I am insane, and I'll probably delete this post in the morning when I come to my senses, but I would want Kody in the delivery room with me!!! Lololololol (ducking) i know I know I know! He's a befuddled jackass usually, but damn, he knows what he's doing I think. And he seems really into it, not in a weirdo, pervy way, but in a way that seems very touching...like he really just loves to see babies come into the world. In the end, the whole thing seemed like a very joyous celebration, that really would bond a family together after such a grueling ordeal. Everyone seemed to be laboring together. Well, almost everyone. Meri is just such a dark cloud hovering about with her awkward shrugs and shifty eyes and really strange mouth that gets stranger every episode, (I swear, it goes from one ear to the other like a muppet) Aside from her strange presence, I think they rocked tonight. I'm sure I'll be back to snarking on them next week :)

Omg, I can't believe I just cried on Sister Wives! Lol Lol that was a pretty insane labor and the two girls huddled by the door in the end, with their big round eyes, as everyone on the other side of the door were all shouting and cooing and sighing with relief and joy as a precious new baby was finally born, was really pretty awesome :). I can't stop tearing like a big schmuck!

Pleasure to meet you too, Jodybug! :) I love Veda-the ultimate villain that finally got what she had coming to her...that's what I'm always waiting for -and ALWAYS disappointed because I never get- the Reality villain's comeuppance. It never happens. Maybe that's actually the true 'Reality',... sadly, in the real world, the bad guys aren't always punished. I watch all the Real Housewives shows. I like them all for different reasons. I've always liked to watch Sister Wives for their duplicity. They are all so full of shit and are trying so hard to portray a fake, happy lifestyle, when in reality, the women hate each other. I like watching for the cracks. I guess I'm waiting for the melt down from one of them...I got one sort of during the catfish scandal. I like when the fake reality they try so hard to present is shattered by truth, and narcissistic fame whores have to face who they really are, and I think all reality show participants are deeply narcissistic-well, maybe not Lisa Vanderfabulous ;) That's why I liked this show. The dysfunction was front and center and barely suppressed...especially with the Snowdens. I could watch their sick mind games with each other and their attempts at cultural elitism and pretensions all day long :) It amuses me! Lol I hope they come back. I couldn't fast-forward past the family with the 2 wives and the non-pregnancy fast enough. Beyond dull and boring--that is until the villain Melina popped in! See? Again with the villain! Lol :) keep posting Jodybug! It's so fun to read real in depth analysis about terrible people. :) (Btw, I'm in the marketing and media field, and your take on these shows is spot on). There's a new one starting up tonight about 3 more wives and a guy...

Google BPD. I've had this toxicity in my life for years and can smell it coming a mile away. :(

No thoughts. You thought and said it all! Lol great post! Thank you!! Write more! Lol at the risk of sounding like a creepy creeper, what other shows do u watch and post about? I like your insight and psychological interpretations. Which is one of the reasons I watch reality drek. No matter how fake it is, or producer-driven, there is usually reality there in the emotions and reactions and motivations. If you know how to look for it. And I agree with your interpretations about the villains. They're usually more important than the 'heroes'. They usually elicit more emotions from the viewer. Therefore we are more invested in watching their every move.

That statement right there was so bizarre! What does that even mean? Can she not be both? Is it one or the other?? What the hell is he babbling about? Also his 'look', his, ahem, hairstyle. It's horrible. It's not working, he doesn't see himself in the mirror? He should be sporting a buzz cut now.

Very well written! Yes, yes and yes!

Good grief! I felt emotional when seeing those x-Rays, and I didn't see the kid grow up for the last 15 years! WTF is wrong with Janelle? She's constantly proudly proclaiming how 'analytical' she is and how funny she thinks it is that she's so detached. She even said it again during the baby shower, how she really doesn't feel anything about the baby yet. We get it Janelle. You want to fill a certain roll and have people think of you in a certain way. But I think she's just trying to make people think she's so smart. She's a bore.

I can sit outside and watch them shuffle their broken down jalopies all day long. Then watch kody climb a ladder and string his stupid lights for the finale.

Meri is waiting to be rescued. Well keep waitin', Meri, it ain't happening.

We should all pitch in and buy it. Then take turns living in it like a time share! Lol lol. We can all sit in front of the windows and watch them live... Like on safari. Lol lol lol I know, I know, I'll see myself out :) the thought is so ludicrous, I cracked myself up!
