Oh, I’ve just realized I never saw this episode when the season was airing because I never saw Ash’s brother. Didn’t realize he was actually featured rather than just referenced.

Uptalk is a feature of Australian speech as much as it is of American speech.

The fuck is a sapio-sexual?!

Oh God, I had a full-body shudder when Dave started talking about rubbing women, and not the good kind.

Oh, humorless Dave. Go away!

Ugh, I hate to defend Libby, but she’s showing a shit ton of restraint at this lunch. I would have a hard time being civil during this conversation.

Well, I guess the whole baptism thing wasn’t such a big stumbling block after all.

You should definitely prepare for the worst when Larissa is around!

Good Lord, Libby. Massage the truth, girl. You don’t have to give the unvarnished truth to the in-laws! She is always spoiling for a fight. So is Andrei, for that matter.

Yep, just Googled. Apparently the odds are 1 in 55 Million! Man, if I had that kind of luck, I’d be pissed if it manifested in natural quints rather than a lottery win.

I didn’t even know it was possible to conceive quints naturally.

Into a slug.

Are...are these two having a mature, supportive conversation? What show am I watching?

“I’ll be a better man,” playing over the intro to Syngin’s segment. Nice job, editors!

But Utah is stunning! Not a state I’d ever live in, but truly gorgeous.

Anytime anyone on this show talks to Asuelu, it’s like they’re talking to a child. So uncomfortable. And Lo is Samoan too, and must speak with Asuelu in their language when cameras aren’t there, but I don’t get the impression that Lo finds him a better conversationalist in their native language.

Man, I don’t understand the Michael and Angela relationship. I think he’s just using her for a green card, but then they have these moments that seem like true affection for one another, and then Angela does something ridiculously trashy and then the cycle starts all over again.

Brittany is ridiculous, but she’s not wrong about the jealousy. That shit ain’t cute.

Yes, we do think you’re an idiot, David.

No, Tom, no! Bad, Tom.

Why does Ed keep making it seem like he hasn’t had sex in 28 years. I can believe that he hasn’t had any long relationships in 28 years, but no hookups at all?

Are her posts over on her Couples’ thread? And/or, care to share the gist here? I’m prepared to be disappointed. No one on this show ever comes out well. It’s why I’m holding back on love for Kenny and Armando.

Asking David to parse those new-fangled Millenial words like AOL and Napster is too much for him.

Oh, eww, I forgot David was on tonight.

In general, I think we probably ascribe a lot more intentional malice to the Duggars than they actually have. Don’t get me wrong, most of their beliefs and views are cruel and abhorrent, but I just don’t think anyone in that family is nearly as calculating or cunning as posters sometimes suspect they are. That being said, my cynical side says Jana is JB’s ace in the hole. The second the show’s ratings drop low enough for the show to be on the cancellation bubble, Jana is going to enter a courtship. It’s guaranteed to boost ratings and keep them on the air for several extra seasons (long enough to see courtship, engagement, wedding, and first baby). Like I said, they’re probably not calculating enough to be intentionally holding Jana back until they need her, so to speak, but I could see them scrambling for a ratings boost however they can if the show is in danger of being canceled and landing on a Jana courtship as their saving grace.
