Is that poor child running on a track in her stocking feet with her toe sticking out? I am speechless.

Interestingly, I've been reading a book on how people misinterpret the Bible by looking at it via today's standards rather than focusing on the actual lives that people led back when the books were written. There is a chapter where women are told to dress modestly. But, remember, back 2000 years ago, there were no skintight clothes, every woman, even the ladies of the night, wore loose fitting robes that covered them from neck to ankles and usually with a veil, to boot. Religious beliefs weren't a major factor, that is how they all dressed. No reason for St. Paul to be preaching about the styles, there was only one style for everyone..
This is interesting; can I ask what book?

Isn't Jill the tallest of the Duggar girls? Maybe she was self-conscious about it.

I’ve known people who’ve repurposed old household items in their gardens and it was charming. This... is not. It looks like they upended a kitchen stool and buried it for that one sad plant to grow on.

"Golf."
Subtitle: "Look at my hairly manly legs. Aren't they fabulous? It's from years of high-level soccer. I played soccer, you know - could've gone pro. I was that good. Still am, but I've chosen to pursue a life of wisdom and faith, along with with the occasional organic, grass-fed cheeseburger washed down with a hand-dipped milkshake from Pretention and Sprinkles - 'cause you gotta keep things chill, amirite?"
Pretention and Sprinkles is my new favorite faux brand name. I want it on a shirt!

I’m quite sure that’s an amber teething necklace. There’s a fair amount of arguing going on in the comments about them regarding effectiveness, danger, etc.

I just don't get what's in this for the Nakatsus. Jim Bob and Jed! seem to be punching way above their weight here.

Yes but I don't remember the actual Mulan Rouge version being that bad. I couldn't enjoy the dance because I was so distracted by the song. It sounded like this should have been used during Villains night. There have been lots of bad singing in DWTS but not so much that I couldn't concentrate on the dancing.
The Moulin Rouge version is by Jose Feliciano and Ewan McGregor and is a weird reimagining of the original song, but it works in the context of the movie. It’s also a popular choice for skating routines. That cover last night was just distractingly horrible; I think it genuinely might be the worst thing I’ve ever heard on the show.

My first thought was that it looks like Jonestown! Presumably not what she was going for.
That's exactly what I thought. 😞

Jesse is back as host. The judges are Nancy, Duff and Carla. I guess Lorraine either chose not to return or maybe had travel restrictions.
Lorraine lives in London so I'm guessing travel restrictions.

What the hell were Hawayak/Baker skating to in the Free Dance? You cannot convince me that is an actual arrangement of Heart of Glass; they were just playing two songs at the same time. It was so distracting I could now really pay attention to the skating.
Also, her costume looks like her partner was skating with bloody hands and smeared the blood all over her waist.
Heh. I loved it; I thought it was amazing.

Johnny Weir has a big advantage because skaters have a track record of winning the mirrorball trophy

I think that’s a common thought but really only Kristi, Meryl and Adam won. Evan, Charlie, Nancy and Mirai all got knocked out at various stages and Dorothy quit. (I’m not even counting Tonya.) Am I forgetting anybody?
I did think Johnny would be a bit better than he seems to be right now, it’s kind of like he’s not sure how to make his feet move gracefully on the floor or something and is too much in his head about it. I hope he gets over that.

I don't know why this is the detail that bothers me out of all of this, but in the baseball hat pic, why do both their hats say Justin? Shouldn't one of them be Claire? Hers if it's a cutesy self reference or his if it's a wearing each other's names thing?

Is it just me or does that mini-golf course look extra sad? No windmills or tunnels or castles or anything?

As much as I like Duff(and dislike Buddy), I cannot help but remember the decorating show that was on last year...can't remember the name but it was set in Texas and it was a husband and wife team. She made some of the most beautiful cakes I had ever seen and her cakes were cakes!!!! They did make a tasting cake also so they had enough cake to serve. Can anyone remember the name of the show? I was truly hoping they would be back this year!
I think you’re thinking of Natalie Sideserf, who is on Duff’s team this season. Her show was Texas Cake House. -
I thought it was a little odd that the theme seemed to be generic amusement park with no actual references to Knott’s included at all. Duff’s bison at least had the little 100, but nothing else. I was waiting for jams & jellies, chicken dinners, miners, stagecoaches.

I feel like the weird meter got cranked up a few notches this season.
I used to really like Alton Brown on Good Eats and that show where he rode a motorcycle across the country but he's become so mean over the past few years I don't enjoy watching him anymore.

In the 4th pizza picture, did they bring their own bottles of soda to the restaurant?

Considering how prevalent eating disorders are in this sport having (dieting app) Noom as a prominent sponsor seems a little tone-deaf to me.

Ugh. Brooke was my favorite. I’m surprised no one (adult or kid) suggested that she use a food processor for the carrots.

If the boys are not going to daycare or day camp (HA!), why would their sippy cups need to be labeled with both their first and last names for home use?
Church nursery maybe?

Gymnastics
in 2021 Olympic Games
Bridget & John were speculating that in addition to the no one-touch warm up, the very cold temperature in the arena might be having an affect on the athletes. A full crowd would have warmed it up some.
