    I don’t see a problem with Rhett getting a “better” cake, photo shoot, and such. It was his first birthday. Lots of people go all out for first birthdays and this was just medium-level at best.

     

    The problem wasn't with Rhett's half-ass birthday party. The problem was that his sisters got cheated, again. If John and Ofjohn can't afford a decent party for each girl, they don't need to spend money on a first birthday party for a kid who won't even remember it. The girls, at least the three older ones, WILL remember.

    I don’t blame anyone for not wanting to interact with Carlin.

    I see it from completely the opposite side, lol. Carlin is so obnoxious, superficial, and narcissistic that I can’t understand why anyone puts up with her at this point. She didn’t even bother to bring gifts for her nieces, yet she flew in for the BIRTHDAY party 😳

    Not that I ever want to defend Carlin in any way, but she does come from a family where her parents admitted that Christmas was low-key or nonexistent because they couldn't afford presents until well after the holiday (and I'm guessing those presents were purchased with a tax refund). I doubt Carlin sees anything wrong with not having birthday or Christmas presents on the actual day, because that is how she was raised. 

    Of course, there is always the distinct possibility that she's just an idiot. Or I'm right on both counts.

    I just got caught up on the Instagram reels, and wow, that party makes me feel even sadder for the girls.

    When Alyssa said they were combining the birthdays and renting a venue, I figured it was going to be somewhere kid-friendly.  FunZone, Dave&Buster's, Chuck E Cheese, SkyZone, etc. That would make sense, because it wouldn't be affordable to host four separate events. I also figured they'd put in a real effort considering the girls had to share a party while Master Rhett got his own. But damn, they ended up with that sad conference room? With no princess themed activities? And the photo booth wasn't even a photo booth, it was someone shooting Polaroids against a balloon backdrop. 

    I'm not familiar with the Orlando suburbs, but I'm assuming a major tourist area must have a bazillion places that specialize in kids parties. I have a hard time believing this is the best they could do. 

    They didn't WANT to do better. Girls are just girls in their cult world -- they exist to do the work and raise the next kids. Rhett got an actual party that he won't remember or care about because he's special, y'all. And now to reiterate my wish that he turns out to be a horrid little shit. 

    "Fairy tale" as a noun is two words, not one. When it's an adjective used to describe a noun, it's hyphenated ("fairy-tale ending"). 

    Carlin needs a fill.

    In our area we don't have inspections but we do have to get a permit after submitting the required info to show the installation of the pool is following the town/city's guidelines.

    Not sure how C&E's area does it, but I'm guessing permits and/or inspections and insurers has not entered their minds. 

    There's not much space left, what with all the deep thoughts they already have. Starbucks Target Chick Fil A clicks clicks what's that smell nail color party party party Starbucks.

    We know he wasn't taking a shower somewhere, since when he turns up he looks like he always looks -- as if he hasn't had one in a week.  I know I need to let it go, but I cannot believe they saddled Susan with him. 

    He looks like he smells. Even on SVU, he looks like he needs a good scrub (I am not volunteering). 

    I always pictured Susan with some clean-cut guy with a mildly boring, non-physical job. Maybe a teacher, engineer, or lawyer.

    Stay tuned for the episode where he gets chased by an army tank! Because this show hadn’t gone downhill enough already. 

    Ironically, Morris v. Tank was one of the less awful episodes from the later years, at least that I remember. At least that episode (per my recollection) didn't consist of St. Abby's high dramatics or Sam and Gates having sex in the hospital or mysteriously reappearing flight nurses. Or brat kids setting fires.

    There’s also the point where Morris just stands there during a mass casualty event and doesn’t do squat to help out. And no one knowing or caring where Romano is. 

    Apparently Morris was too stoned to move!

    I feel like I want to hate watch Freefall in a few episodes. Just to mark the time this show jumped the shark and went down in literal flames.

    Don't miss the part where Chuck is NOT seen on the roof when the helicopter is taking off, but somehow he was not on the chopper or in the elevator, and nobody knew where he was until he arrived in the ER with an intubated patient. Always a mystery -- maybe he was hanging off the roof by his fingertips. 

    Also the part where Abby single-handedly saves Chuck by diagnosing a splenic laceration, intubates him, and gives him a central line, even though she is at that point either a medical student or an intern who failed her multiple-choice boards in medical school. St. Abby for the win! 

    It's one of my favorite sucky-season episodes to snark on because it was so stupidly over the top. Just like Morris smoking weed in the ambulance bay, in plain sight, while on duty. He couldn't even go to his car?

    They couldn’t just join a public pool or country club for the summer?

    Public pool = sluttish heathens or *GASP* people of color, immigrants, LGBTQ+ people. Not sure which a Bates would think is worse. 

    Country club = can't afford it and country club members wouldn't accept these two attention-whoring doofuses and their feral kids

    Lawson is branching out. His stories show a clip of him “singing” The Way You Look Tonight. He’s no Michael Bublé. He really needs to find another “career”.

    Why would he need to do a thing like that?! He's got a cash cow wife who's pregnant with what will be a cash cow baby. Lawson's living on easy street now.

    Little Miles is 2 weeks. I watched a reel (muted) of Josie showing a day in the life of a mom of 3. A good portion of the video was Josie applying make-up. I know there are some folks who won't go to the mailbox without make-up (no judgement), but yikes I just don't get being made up before breakfast is over (or at all), with a 2 week old.

    Well, it's not like she's wasting time reading books or anything. Fundies live the most superficial lives.

    I think Travis’ best bet is to get a job as a studio musician.  

    But then he might have to deal with WOMEN! They might corrupt him since his faith and marriage are so strong!

    She’s probably convinced herself that KJ will babysit. I wouldn’t be surprised if KJ was encouraging Katie to move to Tennessee so Hailey could be with family and participate in all the photo shoots at BSB, lol.

    I think Kelly and Gil put a lot of pressure on Katie to move back to Tennessee because they can't control her in New Jersey.

    I just watched the video. 

    I predict John won't last a month working from home. He had to take care of his kids for a whooping three days and seemed totally over it eight hours in. 

    When the video started, I was laughing at Alyssa telling her audience how tough it is to leave John and the girls. She couldn't get out of there fast enough. That was the happiest and most animated I've seen her in months. I will say, the bond she has with Bill and Jane is very sweet, and that was nice of her to clean the entire house. I'm sorry to say that Bill isn't looking too good. I don't know if they have a visiting nurse or what, but I'm surprised they haven't had to move him to a care home, especially with his worsening dementia. 

    They may not be able to afford assisted living or a nursing home for him. Both of those are damned expensive, and Medicare does not cover it all. There may also be a waiting list for facilities that Medicare does cover.

    I don't follow the Bates all that closely, but is Katie the one that thinks females at the drive thru window flirt with/tempt her husband?  Or is that a different sister?

    If it's Katie, how will she let him commute to Nashville by himself?

     

    I wouldn't be surprised if she commutes to Nashville with him. All those country music harlots, you know. Michael(a) can watch the baby since she won't matter anymore.

    It sounds to me like the site has new moderators who are on a power trip. It said the thread titles are discriminatory, which is absurd. 

    The moderators on that forum have been power-tripping (and playing favorites) for quite some time. Years, even. That includes ignoring their own terms of use. 

    I wonder what the change is now.

    I hang out in the Counting On threads. We are confused too. What we know for sure is they say two of the thread titles "don't meet community standards".

    Hopefully this forum is not next.

    That's bizarre. None of the thread titles are new.

    He's with a company called Globe Life Heritage (I think I got it all).  Low-ranked by the BBB. has to generate his own leads, which explains the run-in at the coffee shop that had No Soliciting signs posted. 

    Yep, that's an MLM. I get recruiting emails from them about once a week despite repeated requests to stop. My second-to-last email response involved some profanity and still didn't stop them from sending another. They're as obnoxious as, well, god-bothering fundies like the Rodriguii.
