Instead of speaking, hubby probably just writes things down on blue cards.

No Whoopie and for much of the show only one person was speaking at a time. Joy went down the table to let everyone have input. Once when Sunny was talking and both MMM & Paula started talking on top of her, Joy said "ONE AT A TIME"! But I think it was MMM who took that as meaning it was her turn again.

That was hilarious, like Sarah Palin saying she read books but couldn't name a single one. I suspect MMM's gets what she calls her "very smart" husband to write the blue cards for her and she knows nothing unless it is on a little blue card. I wonder what would happen if Sunny snatched MMM's cards so she had to use her own brain on the show,

Janelle Brown: Smarter Than Your Average Brown (Maybe)
deirdra replied to Rhondinella's topic in Sister Wives
She probably thinks it is fancy because the plate IS fancier than a mason jar. I've been making things with chia seeds for 3 years, but with real food at home, not overpriced overpackaged stuff full of preservatives and neon-coloured dyes. -
Indeed. "Cacophony" is what we hear whenever Meghan talks over someone else. Preacher voices & cadences don't engage me, they lull my brain to sleep so I cannot absorb the full message.

Whenever I see people dyeing their hair different shades of not-found-in-nature reds, browns & blacks every few weeks, I wonder if they are trying to find themselves. They always seem to pick colours that look cheap and don't work with their skin-tones as if it is their intention to look as harsh and freakish as possible; you'd think by now one of them might have picked a nice colour by chance. Marrying and popping out babies before they really know who they are and what they want from life will probably lead to disaster.

Janelle Brown: Smarter Than Your Average Brown (Maybe)
deirdra replied to Rhondinella's topic in Sister Wives
I love to snark and read other peoples' snarks online. It helps to get it out of my system so I can focus on being more positive IRL. Janelle does not understand that people who really want help do not need whiney "health coaches". Her whining and excuses will just inspire whining, excuses for cheating and failure in her "clients". -

Mason jars are great because you can store, freeze, reheat, reuse and eat out of them and not have a second dish/glass to wash. Because they are heat tempered they are much harder to break than most glasses and they do not stain or leach BPAs etc like plastic containers. When most of the kids are around, Janelle probably does not have much room in the dishwasher. But I hate the feel of the screwtop ribs on my lips, so I make things with less water so they can be eaten like pudding with a parfait spoon. -
With capital losses on things like investments, you cannot deduct more than your income taxes (i.e. you may owe $0 net in taxes, but you don't get money back) and can spread losses over 3 years, so I suspect it is something similar for small "businesses". Deducting lots of car trips to cool cities and cruises, when your business is mainly online, would surely draw the attention of a tax auditor, especially in year 3. And her "assets" are the overpriced LuLuNo crap hanging in her "office", which is probably not worth the discounted price she paid for it.

I would have preferred a 4-person panel, with Ana, not Paula, who was talking over everyone else plus during her own ample time. Some schools forbid shirts with words or logos to avoid anyone being offended or labelling their child (and logo shirts cost a lot more, basically saying "I'm rich"). I don't like the C, P & N words, but Ana is correct about Brits & Aussies using it all the time (as do the French) so Canadians are used to hearing it. It is used to refer to a person behaving like a dick, jerk or a-hole, like Ivanka. Sam & writers probably thought of it as the feminist hipster version of "dick" and OK for a woman to use about a woman in a situation that had nothing to do with sex or body parts. Now she knows better than to use words that will distract from the point she is trying to make.

And what's going on with Aspyn's abdomen?

Christine Brown Woolley: Nacho Sister Wife Anymore
deirdra replied to Rhondinella's topic in Sister Wives
Is the "Seriously" supposed to imply that Mrs. Blackman was not expected to be the best teacher for Truly? -
Does the current building even have a second floor? All I remember were first floor bedrooms all with doors to the outside.

I just watched a John McCain bio on HBO and her half-sister Sidney mentioned that she (Sidney) is super liberal but enjoys discussions with her father. That is probably because he listens to other peoples' opinions and works on bipartisan compromises. Sidney didn't mention Meggie, but we know Meggie doesn't listen or converse, she just reads her talking points, which doesn't go over well at the dinner table.

I didn't mind hearing Jed's points of view, but she did the same fast-talking and interrupting others that Meghan does and I notice that Paula does it too more now than when she was on regularly.

Next time MMM cuts off Sunny or Joy, they should mimick her nasal whiney voice saying "I'm still talking. I'm still talking. I'm still talking", using up more time so that nobody can talk. In real conversations everyone gets to talk and nobody reads cards written by her husband in a monotone that would be sleep-inducing if not for the high volume of screeching.

I was surprised MMM didn't start her women's issues statement with "As a woman ..." Did she graduate at the bottom of her Art History class? Those dead presidents' portraits were gawdawful. For someone who was not following the Royal Wedding, she sure spent a lot of time worrying about what the presidents' portraits saw on TV and what her mother's wedding party was up to on Instagram.

I've never liked Bethenny (beginning with her putting on her 4-yr old's shirt & shorts to advertise her skinny booze mixers), but if she is raising money for PR, good on her. Much of PR still doesn't have electricity and the average American is not aware of it. In addition to being short-waisted, MMM is also short (1.55 m or <5'1"), so I can believe she wears a 14 in Marquesa vanity sizing. If she were 5'4-6", yes, she'd be a size 18-22.

On May 15th MM's hands were pinky-purple but her face neck and chest had yellow makeup, probably to hide her usual flush when screeching, but she didn't get riled up enough to need it (for a change).

My sister went to Yale 40 years ago and her friend was stopped by local police for running late to class while black, which made him even later. Nothing has changed except now it is all recorded.

Someone needs to put a shock collar on Meghan and give Joy the button to push whenever MM starts screeching or talking over someone else who is trying to make a point.

The alcoholic/pills sister looks like an obese turtle when she retracts her head/chin into her neck. She thinks she knows it all, but Phil and the audience have her number.

Is Fiona (from Shrek) a nickname for Huckasanders? Elsa has a degree in Art History, not Political Science, and being the daughter of a Senator does not mean she is "in politics" or a "political analyst". I'm fine with her calling herself a "pundint", as she pronounces it. The second "n" negates the pundit part, and in the real world "pundit" is a term others use to describe a person, not one you use to describe yourself, a lot like "expert".

It is also ridiculous that MM thinks she is speaking for all Republicans, because Nicole & Ana don't follow the party line 100%, nor do they have husbands who provide them with stacks of cue cards full of out-of-context statistics. Elsa's entire head, neck and arms went red when Sunny mentioned her journalism degree. Did the twit not bother to read up on her co-panelists' bios before taking the job? What a twit! It was nice to have Joy, Sunny & Whoopi call her out for a change but now MM will scream that the entire panel and producers are conspiring against her. MM should re-watch the show to see that it was she herself that started it all.

That perfectly describes her. She keeps talking without taking breaths so that nobody can get a word in edgewise and just digs herself into a deeper hole.
