[Meri Brown and her Wet Bar of Tears]

"Boss up"? "This shit is personal"????

More "tough talk" from the Queen of crumpling up in tears.

Christine dumped her waste of skin husband who does not value her. It hurt, and I'm sure it was terrifying at times, but she finally said,  "I'm worth more than this. You can't treat me like this anymore." and did something about it.

There was no handsome millionaire, REAL OR IMAGINED, to rescue her. She did it on her own.

Christine is the real "Strong Woman/Boss Babe/Loving Herself" person you pathetically pretend to be while hiding behind your social media account, Meri.

And she did it all without your support, because you told her she should look at the mountains, and buy into Sunk Cost Fallacy.

So sit the fuck down.

I hate this clip because it makes me have to agree with Kody, a universally disliked douchebag who I despise.

But he is not wrong. He was pretty much dead on about everything.

Meri refuses to admit this now, she was a “victim”. And Meri, “friends” don’t say “baby, baby, baby” and use the words “I love you” on hundreds of voicemails. 

Meri is in serious denial. She will never come clean until she can admit it to herself. 

So true. I don't suck bananas for friends, or scratch their names into my skin. This kind of denial of any responsibility endears Meri to NO ONE.

A relationship with Kody is off the table, but Meri might still have had a chance to save some other family relationships, if she had been willing to make amends, but you can't make amends for something you refuse to even admit doing in the first place.

Instead of admitting anything, she doubled down on her entire family by parading a string of the catfisher's "other victims" before them...a very, very poor strategy, because all it did was point out to everyone that these other victims, LIKE MERI, were in love with someone they thought was a man named Sam Cooper.

Yes, it's sad that anyone like the catfish preys on lonely people, but all Meri did by bringing those victims around was point out to her entire family (and viewers) that those victims were SINGLE LADIES who were looking for love online - and that Meri was, as well.

I'm so sick of her lame "just a friend" excuse. Nobody does all the things Meri did with fake Sammy with someone who is just a friend.

It almost seems like it'd be kinder to Meri to literally tell her you don't want her to live on  your property (assuming they ever do build there) and to just cut her off from the family completely?

I do agree that there may be SOME thing he could do to put more of an "end" to this (I don't really know what that would be, though....).

As far "his" property, though, Meri's name is on some of that land. Kody doesn't have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of...so he's used these ladies' money to purchase that land. I don't think he CAN keep any of them away from that property, as it is not completely his.

What he should have done is live within his and Robyn's means, so they can be alone all the time like they want, but because he's a moron and a user with big dreams, he probably got these ladies he no longer wants to put their money into buying that land, which means he can't tell them to just get lost and not live out there with him and Hot Pants.

I just wanna know what terrible thing she did to ruin intimacy. If it wasn’t the catfish entirely and if it occurred before that, what on earth was it? 

I agree, I would love to know this too. And we'll probably never find out, because my guess is this is complete bullshit.

I'd just like to hear Kody try to come up with a story.

I dislike Meri, I think she's obnoxious and hard to get along with and all that...I don't doubt that she could do plenty to kill a relationship, but I think we all know what happened during this "around 10 years ago" timeframe they're hinting at.

Robyn. Robyn happened.

Robyn demanded that he stop sleeping with his other wives. I think it's as simple as that.

But I'd love to hear what kind of fanciful lie Kody might come up with to keep that from being known.

People aren't as stupid as you think, Kody...we can all see that Christine "murdered your intimacy" and Meri also committed some unforgiveable sin, right at the time you wanted to start boinking someone new and supposedly hotter, you horny asshole.

"I don't think that's enough for anybody, but everybody makes their choices," Kody concludes. 

 

As if he's not also making a choice to... not do anything about an untenable situation.

I don't exactly disagree...but what can he do?

I don't see how he can be any more clear in regards to Meri. He has gone farther in this Tell All clip than he ever has before, even describing what a future Coyote Pass scenario would look like. A sad, "check in on her once in awhile like she's a burden or obligation" situation.

He's been quite clear for quite some time that he NEVER intends to have any kind of romantic relationship with her. Not just "I don't want to right now", he's been more direct than that, he has said NEVER.

This is not like Christine's situation where he tried to be a weasel and just not tell her he was never going to have a romantic relationship with her again, and would even go spend the night at her house but play "too tired", he's flat out telling Meri on national TV that he wants nothing to do with her other than to "look in on her" once in awhile.

I'm not one to defend Kody, I cannot stand the pig, but he can't throw Meri out of Arizona. They have a child together, so it would be a poor decision for him to stop speaking to Meri altogether. If she chooses to stick around even after being legally divorced and cut out of the rotation and told it will never, never happen, I'm not sure what else he can do, short of filing a restraining order.

To me the person who keeps this shit going is Robyn. Kody's not the one inviting Meri over for Thanksgiving or to see the kids, that's Robyn's doing. She wants Meri (and the others) there so she can rub it in that she has everything they want. Evil bitch.

Wow, Meri has packed on the pounds in the last couple of years and it shows no signs of stopping.  

I hear ya. I don't know why, but it really shows in this clip to me - I noticed it more than I have all season. Sitting on that couch, she looked like she had a teeny tiny head atop a giant body.

She bears no resemblance to the phony, plastic, filtered pictures she posts on SM.

Exactly. Many people can live happily without sex but it has to be mutual and normally they still have affection towards each other with hugs and kisses and touch. He is asking her to stay in a loveless marriage and that is something very different 

Agree.

He is trying to equate his asshattery to normal, caring couples who have made a decision TOGETHER, for whatever reason.

1. It's not a mutual decision, Christine is clearly not on board - they never even had a conversation.

2. With most couples, both are giving up the physical relationship. 

This fuckwad is giving up nothing, only Christine is expected to give it up! He's still going to the Scottsdale Victoria's Secret to buy crotchless panties and pasties for Typhoid Robyn.

I loathe this vile excuse of a man.

And this is what I always come back to when it comes to Meri. If she had been truthful about the catfish thing, I believe that the vast majority of people would have sympathized with and supported her.

I would have. 

I am absolutely not okay with the way Kody treats his wives. I do not doubt for a minute that he was going ga-ga over Robyn at that time, and doing awful, insensitive, horrible, hurtful things to Meri. I suspect their sex life came to a halt, or was so sparse as to be almost non-existent, and even before this truth bomb from Christine came out, I could easily imagine that Kody is the kind of lying weasel who wouldn't come right out and tell you he's not going to be having sex with you anymore, he'd lie and just be "tired" on his nights at your house...because he's a cowardly dirtbag. And then Mariah goes off to college and his "nights" at her house became even fewer and farther between, because he really was only coming by to see his daughter once in awhile.

While doing all of that he shoves his new relationship with his younger, thinner wife in your face and makes some new babies to boot.

After going through all of that, I would have totally understood if Meri said "I f*cked up. I was rilly rilly hurt and rejected by the only guy I've ever dated or been intimate with, and I let myself be talked into a divorce, believing it would only be on paper but it turned out to be much more than that, and because I was horribly upset I f*cked up and had an emotional affair. It wasn't right, I shouldn't have done it no matter what wrongs Kody has done, and I'm sorry I embarrassed all my kids."

Holy buckets would I feel differently if that's how Meri had been.

But instead she lies her muppet mouth off, telling all of us viewers that basically she was just searching the internet for at risk youth and accidentally ended up having a platonic friendship with Jake from State Farm, and shockingly it turned out to be a catfish! A catfish who "scared" her into leaving all those voicemails and taking those banana pics.

Nope. That is so insulting to every viewer's intelligence. Meri doesn't get to piss down my back and tell me it's raining.

Above all else, I cannot stand liars, and Meri is nothing but a big fat liar.

[S16.E10: The Beginning of the End]

He told Christine there are people who have marriages like this?

Another of your half-truths, Kody, you lying sack of shit. People who have non-intimate marriages do so with MUTUAL CONSENT and most likely DISCUSS that this is something they will BOTH be okay with. They don't just stop sleeping with their wives, continue banging other women, and not bother to even tell their partner that this is the deal now. Clearly Christine just realized over time that she should stop hoping for intimacy to happen, because this coward didn't even have the balls to tell her. It sounds like it went on for quite awhile before she finally got up the nerve to ask him if it was just never going to happen again.

I really, really hope there is some justice in the world and someday someone that he wants tells him they just aren't attracted to him anymore and there will be no more boinking...oh, and that he can just like it or lump it.

I hate this arrogant bastard with the fire of a thousand suns.

[Season 16 Live Chat Thead]

We're being punked.

There's no way Kody reads books....😆

[Season 16 Live Chat Thead]

Kody, the fact that you are surprised by any of this just shows what an egotistical bastard you are.

[Season 16 Live Chat Thead]

Blame whatever you want, but you exposed the whole family because you had to have an outside employee coming in every day, Typhoid Robyn.

[Season 16 Live Chat Thead]

There's adult children at Robyn's house - wow, Janelle actually said it!

[Janelle Brown: Smarter Than Your Average Brown (Maybe)]

Just my opinion, but I think Janelle wants a non-romantic friendship with Kody, and she's also always been great at sticking her head in the sand.

I think she tells the kids "Oh just forget what Dad said, he was just angry", goes back to sticking her head in the sand, and waits for her next al fresco marshmallow roast with the asshole. After an hour or two with him, she's ready for him to hit the road again.

This is all she needs.

The only time problems arise is when he tries to boss her around, and even then it's not that big of a problem to Janelle...she just does whatever she wants and hopes it'll all blow over. And because Kody has the attention span of a gnat, it usually does.

The big problem in the future is when the money and show are gone, Meri will split, Robyn will drop him like a hot potato, and Janelle will be saddled with him full time. THAT is not what she wants at all...a broken, crying Kody who has lost the love of his life, bothering her all the time. She better learn how to tow that RV around herself, so she can ghost his dumb ass.

He's adorable!!!

Which one? 😉

The way he keeps calling his new kitty his "son" and loves him so much, I am finding them both very adorable.

My nephew just did the same thing...bought a house and immediately adopted a dog. 😁 

It's pretty hard to beat the cynicism and sarcasm out of me, but this is the kind of thing that does it.

[Spoiler, Speculation and Social Media]

What a sad clip.

The slimy bastard sure didn't mind using her body enough times to saddle her with six of his children though, did he.

I could not have lived with myself if I'd bought it new, because then I'd be contributing to the Victoria's Secret fund.

I don't mind wasting money on clothes for myself, but I'll be damned if I'm buying crotchless panties for Robyn!

The last thing Meri should be doing is tucking her hair back in order to show off that she has 90 year old man ears. 🤮

If I were Ysabel, when Kody found those boxes in Christine's garage, they would have read "Kody's Shoes ROGAINE", "Kody's Clothes VIAGRA", and "Kody's Books PENIS ENLARGEMENT EQUIPMENT".

If Kody's older kids need any more proof that it isn't all in their heads that Robyn is the favorite, they should watch the scene in this episode where he comes back to Robyn's house after being gone.

He opens up his coat so Skankarella can crawl right in 🤮. With the other moms he's like an awkward, stiff-armed 13 yr old at a middle school dance.

I hope Christine gets massive amounts of therapy - she's going to need it. Kody is a fucking monster.

You're lucky your stuff's in the garage in boxes, Kody.

How many years has it supposedly been the last season?

Bingo.

Doesn't really matter how much they are NOT living polygamy...I bet it's a financial decision only. If TLC can sell episodes of none of these people speaking to each other or spending any time at all together, they will.

As long as people watch, and it turns a buck, I think it'll keep going. 

Even if it's 5 old people in 2050 in separate nursing homes who haven't seen each other in years!
