  1. To all the Texas posters: Y'all stay dry and off the roads until this line of storms passes thru your area...I know the DFW metroplex was hard hit. Houston is about to "get it". Let us all know how you are.

    Maybe because it does not scream FUNDY. Besides jean skirts, what is it that they do to their clothes that frumps them up so much?

    Because everyone knows what Fundy misery fashion looks like. They can be spotted in a gaggle over a mile away. Nobody else wears that type of denim skirts much anymore, and there is the countenance framing, hot mess of banana curls and hair fried by too many hot tools.  Feet are typically shod in busted flip flops or cross training shoes bought at Goodwill.

    Probably used for hanging laundry that doesn't go in the dryer.

    If they aren't completely covered in dust bunnies...it would defeat the purpose of washing their clothes and would also warp the strings and frame with the moisture

    You don't go to Vicky's if you want to be properly fitted.  Those are sales women not trained bra fitters.  Nordstrom, however, will get you in the right size of a truly good bra.  She looks like she may have gone somewhere that actually does fit bras.

    Depends where you live, I guess. My BFF who lives in NC took her very difficult to fit niece to Vicky's and got her a great fit.

  5. I imagine the very idea of living with the Duggars would make most people choose rehab instead. Listening to the helium voice of Xanaxia and watching her being mauled by Boob -- just that alone would send me running for the hills.

    Besides, Tyler's mom would have likely been too much of a negative influence and too hard for Boob to control. 

    Cousin Famy was regarded as a bad influence for far less.

    Just occurred to me that "and Tyler" maybe should be added to the Howler topic?

  6. Nope. Jill is a frumpy, dumpy, pilly pile of rags with an ill-fitting bra underneath. I'm sure Jinger is the first and only one in that family to get a proper fitting bra.  Hopefully Diana kindly took her aside and took her to a lingerie shop or VS to be properly fitted. I just don't think after all the modesty rules and hang ups, that any female Duggar was even aware such services were available.

    Remember the SYTTD epi  where Michelle wouldn't allow any of the dress fitters to measure her or help her into a garment, because modesty?

  7. Poor Josie looks like one of those old creepy wax dolls. Those horrid pigtails did her no favors. A pink (or any other color) cap with flowers would have made her look so much better.

    You can see just how delicate she was.

  8. I live in Houston where bread goes moldy if left on counter in its wrapper for more than 48 hours .

    I wouldn't put the maple syrup in the fridge or olive oil. My British family members would leave out butter. My precious grandma, RIP, was born in 1916 and had some crazy ideas about what should and shouldn't go in the fridge. My siblings and I couldn't find the potato chips we'd purchased, and we asked grandma where they were. "I put the crisps in the fridge", she announced, thinking she'd done the right thing.

    "Good Lord, Grandma! You put the roast in the pantry, but crisps go in the fridge? If anything needs to go in the fridge, it's that roast! It's a wonder you don't have botulism!", I shrieked incredulously. 

    Back in the day, the larder was on the outside wall to preserve food by keeping it cool. I guess old habits die hard, but we all still have a laugh 30 years later.  She's been gone since 2001, and I still miss her.

  9. I don't think I'd trust a Fundy to do a Brazilian wax at home. That is not a DIY and best left to the professionals. It might be regarded as "too worldly" or immodest, so maybe Fundy hoo-ha's are safe from wannabe beauticians.

    Anyway, once they get wind of it, the craze will be long passé.

    I hear it's already beginning to fall out of favor. My own personal opinion is that a woman should do it for HER if she so chooses. As far as men are concerned, a pirate should be grateful for whatever treasure he gets to plunder.

    Swimsuit and lingerie models, and certain "entertainers" have to do it. Funny how the sight of a pube or areola on a female breast has everyone..."clutching their pearls".
