But I bet any dish Jill makes can make the regional "garbage plate" somehow look .... worse. (FWIW, I love me a garbage plate when visiting Rochester!)

I can vouch for this in the dumbest way. I listed a jacket for sale on ebay a few years ago, i think the listing title was "CLASSIC POLO RALPH LAUREN...." and my dumb ass didn't notice that I'd typed "VLASSIC POLO..." until it sold. I reached out to the buyer to make sure they understood that ZERO pickles were involved lol. (ebay negative feedback is no joke 😂) She laughed and said that interaction made her purchase so much better - and that she hadn't noticed my mistake either.

Before even spending a dime on transportation, etc, she LEAVES for the trip in at least $500 in debt. And that's including her Dollar Tree hair extensions and thrifted sparkly apparel.

I was literally applauding while reading this. She cannot miss a single grifting moment, no matter how inappropriate. Jill, the phrase is "There is a time and place for everything" not "Every thing is the right time and place!" Just when I feel Jill's shittiness has plateaued, we're reminded of how there is no limit to how far low she will go.

Jill making this dinner is like a crossover of Chopped and Worst Cooks in America. One where she goes home first because she's just so personally insufferable.

(when you can HEAR a post instead of reading it lol)

Yeah Jill doesn't supervise, she just barks orders and yells "smile! i'm filming!" and probably has one of the girls take pictures of her manhandling food in various stages of prep. David probably sits in his chair and decides on whatever SEVERELY MANLY activities they boys (and boys only) will take part in later.

Yeah Jill wouldn't last five minutes at the bins. LOL. The ones in my area are pretty tame, but I've been to the ones in Denver and Los Angeles and it is NOT for the faint of heart! if she did go, i'm sure we'd have gotten a video of some soul saving that absolutely did not happen.

This would be a great time to let Renee expand her earring empire and have a big sale. Can't reinvest what $$ you don't make though, I guess. Of course this would involve Jill actually knowing her children and their actual interests. Okay nevermind.

I'm sorry, Jill, but #11? "Strive to learn to have complete self discipline over your flesh"? So why bother with your performative mahhhhdesty? If the men around you aren't actively trying to control themselves, maybe surround yourself with better men and then you would find yourself able to wear weather- and activity-appropriate apparel. I am perfectly happy in my little heathen world where I can wear pants and no makeup - and drink a glass of wine and eat all the cheetos I want - but thanks Jill.

I really enjoyed Last Bite Hotel! I liked that the camp and the gimmicks were limited to the host (who was perfectly cast in that role) and they let the chefs cook what they know. Nini and Byron were really fun to watch play the game.

Yeah how's that "RESET" going, Jill???

I'm laughing because at MANY points in my retail career, I had to "hem" pants using the tagging gun like this. I always check pants before I put them in the washer or put them up on Poshmark/eBay to sell. You can make fun of me for it because yes it can look ridiculous, that's fine, but sometimes you just gotta do what ya gotta do LOL Can't believe Jill is selling clothes on Etsy because a known aggravation with sellers is the crazy fees on that platform. I would venture to guess she doesn't weigh anything either and just guesses at weights and leaves any overage to be paid by the buyer at delivery.

I think the "only 1 left" is an etsy thing and not a jill thing. i haven't sold on etsy on a hot minute (once sellers loaded up on aliexpress and temu, i peaced out) but I don't recall having the option to add that manually. i see it on shops where the sellers are very passive, can't imagine they'd care enough to add that themselves. it's possibly an etsy default line that pops up when inventory gets under a certain number - even if the initial quantity is only one. i'm happy to be wrong if other experienced etsy sellers can chime in!

Cinnamon will live at the bottom of her purse with her phone.

Renee's purple sweater dress (?) is from Target's kid's line Art Class. I'm sure Jill thinks it's a flex that her grown daughters can still wear kids size clothing. Feed your kids, Jill.

That was a tough watch. You could hear the nervousness in the girls' voices, as if something terrible was waiting if they didn't recite their lines perfectly (there probably was something terrible waiting). Zero individual thoughts in that entire video. Everyone is "so excited" (multiple times!) and everyone is "so sweet". Jill's SOTDRT needs a thesaurus introduced to the curriculum.

Maybe one of her downline also sells Bomb Party jewelry and she did a product trade lol Plexus is not legal tender, Jill.

David: Please define "Tarry" and use it in a completely new sentence. We'll wait.

The real unfortunate thing is that Samuel simply doesn't know any better. He has no idea that they're both 100 shades of batshit crazy. ALL HE KNOWS is batshit crazy so to him, that's normal. Goddamn these kids are screwed. Fuck you, Jill.

In my mind, Tessie and Renee are having "we gotta get TF outta here, this is some bullshit" conversations when Mahmo and the others aren't around. This is my contribution to Rod Lore Fanfic.

@crazy8s again, i want to express how thankful i am that you are our RodFamily Historian. I'd forgotten all about the anniversary trips! They'll probably go back to their same place where Jill marvels over a hot tub and she jumps in a freezing cold pool that's been closed for a month.

Kinda says something about their faith if they have to work to "strengthen" it every night.

LOL i've done this before, too. I called my *actual* dentist and said "imma be late...." So embarrassing. Thanks for the info on Hallie's post - whew, i'm not crazy. I don't follow any of the Rod-iverse on socials, just here and reddit. Solid chance I just need to consume less Rod content overall though lol

I know the reddit sub has a lot more of a "No, but seriously, Don't touch the poo! This time we mean it!" push lately, and I don't think this counts as reposted content - but did anyone catch the post w Hallie's tiktok (maybe an instagram story?)? She said something like "I used to think y'all were crazy and over the top but ... I GET IT, now I GET IT. I'm LIVING it." or something like that. I could be crazy, it could be lack of sleep, it could be peri making me crazy. I'm pretty sure I didn't make that up though. The only reason I'm posting this is because I had a totally made up moment today where I insisted I had a dentist appointment and when I got there, they said "no ma'am, you haven't been to this practice since 2015" and I'm hoping that was the only moment...
