  1. You are missing the point. She speaks "KODY"! Obviously a very rare and valuable talent.
  2. Yanno, for my Dad's funeral, I dressed for the occasion - that being how he and I would be dressed for a day together. It had nothing to do with cameras, or what other people wore or what they thought of my choice. Jeans, flannel shirt, hiking boots. The moment was for Dad and me. And that's how I wanted to remember it and him. So I don't have any problem with Tony and sneakers and a baseball cap. Hey. He showed up. 'Nuff said.
  3. I am sorry to welcome Janelle to 'the club'. Not many of us are in the position to have that folded flag handed to us. It is a moment seared into memory for all time. I will never forget the face of the young Sargeant who knelt before me and handed me that flag that covered my father.
  4. I dunno. It's always fun and games until someone gets hurt. It has been a sport to mock Robyn and Kody - and hell. They derserve it! But they didn't deserve this. Mine is a military family. Over the years we have lost a number of brethren-in-arms. The stunned disbelief. the burning, stabbing, smothering overwhelming grief - no, I wouldn't wish these things on even the cartoonish asshole we see as Kody Brown. I fervently hope he, that all the family, gets the help they need right now. I can't kick a man - or woman - when they're down. Hunter, my fellow Airman, hug your Mama. I am the mother of a Soldier, one who has been a lot of places and seen a lot of thiings (160th Night Stalker for 14 years). I know what your mother has felt/feared in her heart for years now. Hug your Mama - - you understand why. Let them be as they need to be, for now. Let them attend or not, sit wherever. For us, it really is nothing. For them, it may well mean everything.
  5. Why is it unfair? Why should a felony charge mean a life of guaranteed poverty? Yeah, Duggar did some Sh!tAzz things. But I can't help but notice that, while certain politicians, sports figures and Hollywood darlings have done same/worse, Duggar is held in greater contempt and hatred. And the only apparent difference is the Duggars' Christian faith (flawed as their practice might be). It makes me wonder.
  6. He'll learn to deal with it. As all children learn to deal with their limitations and differences. IF the adults in their lives don't f@ck them up. But I think the Roloffs are up to the challenge. I can empathize with their misgivings and wanting to delay the discomfort as long as possible. Who wants to see their kids hurting?
  7. She could be hooked up on 'The Other Way'. After all, she's SUCH a seasoned world traveler!
  8. I've been an owner and trainer of dogs for over half a century. I don't see that Tori did anything wrong with tying the dog out for a while. He certainly wasn't abused. Just smelly. Okay, let the beatings commence........
  9. I would have paid good money to see Glen and Angie hand Whitney reservation paperwork for the local Holiday Inn, with a STRONG suggestion that she go park it there for a coupld of days so they could get acquainted.
  10. Oh, most definitely intensive therapy for the kid. For Mommy Dearest, I'd prefer permanent incarceration for the most horrific child abuse ever. And documented!
  11. Well, at least one of them has a plan that just might work
  12. Brandon is stupid. Mary is calculating, manipulative and desperate.
  13. My husband and I are both retired military. Served during the timespan of Vietnam through Desert Storm including the Cold War. We laughed at Brandon from the get-go. Boy, you share a warm bed with that "sweet young thing"....she OWNS you! For her "honor", doncha know. We saw that happen oh, so many times. And if the pee-stick says "Congratulations!", it's Game Over. Seems some things have not changed all that much over the years. We'll be sure to tune in, just to see how 'Harry Potter' works his magic over this situation. Very popular item for sweet "vulnerable" girls wanting a ticket to the US.
  14. In this one instance, on this topic, I wholeheartedly agree with Kody. At least he has something right.
  15. Well, there you do have a valid point. However, Robyn could have just hung back until the names were drawn (or whatever method of choosing was finished ), and then gotten involved, perhaps to gain insight as to what might be desireable gifts. Other than that, she should have just butted out.
  16. Well, marriage is much more than just bouncing and staining the mattress. What if a wife is sick or injured or just very upset. Does the "rotation" grind on regardless? What if a child is sick....or needs major surgery......oh, wait. I guess we know the answers to those questions, don't we.
  17. I would expect more mastery of the English language, especially use of punctuation, from a perfectionist Harvard student like Jazz.
  18. Of course not! Any weight loss will be attributed to Whitney's mighty strength of will, athletic prowess and a heart-warming promise to her departed mother. Got to have some sort of story line, yanno.
  19. Why wouldn't he? It's the best way to impress gun safety rules, it's a rewarding skill to master, and it's just plain fun!
  20. Well, she justifies her eating choices with the "facts" that chasing a toddler and lifting two kids is "hard work and exercise". Most of us just consider those activities "Motherhood" and not an excuse to indulge in...whatever. We've seen what she eats and craves.
  21. I am wondering, are these variants in requirements similar to those of the Amish? Some ordnungs are very strict, and others more permissive - are various Muslim communities the same in this regard? Regardless, she is being a stubborn brat about the whole thing.
