[Kody Brown: Part-Time Father, Full-Time Asshat]

Where did Kody get the expression about circling the donkey?  At least I found a dictionary entry for “beer and skittles.”

And in a preview, he accuses Christine of "playing games."  WTF does he call his gaming of Meri in hinting he'd reconcile with her?

You are right, Joan.  He's playing a dangling carrot game to keep Meri hanging on, for her money, and keeping up the plyg myth we all know is a big fat LIE.  Sobbyn wants Meri around, to play her own game.  

The trifecta of toxic people=Kootie + Sobbyn + Meri.  

If Meri is around for anything but filming, I would be shocked. 

[S17.E14: Which Wife is Next?]

@Yeah No mentioned Meri playing the long game.  If that is the case, I think it is because she promised her mom that she would stay “married” to Kody forever. 
If Kody was never in love with Meri, I would bet he was in lust with her for those first few years in a way he never was with Janelle  and Christine. 
I have heard the beer and skittles expression meaning great enjoyment or something really easy to do. Not sure what beer does to skittles except maybe dissolve the coating.  Is skittles being used to are a euphemism for something else?

I'm glad I never have company stay over for that reason.  I still have a few bottles of  leftover wines in the fridge.  But I been battling a cough for over a month now and taking medicine.  So it's best I don't drink right now.  🤕

It was just our DIL and son who brought the last items from the house we just sold. We downsized from 3200 sq feet to 1800 so it seemed full with 4 people. 🤣🤣

I finally saw the whole episode at 11:30 and used the FF button thru commercials and teasers. I really need a “slap” button on my phone when I watch these idiots.

I can't believe Kody told his sons they wouldn't be welcome for Christmas unless they apologized.  Apologize for what?  Stating that Robyn was most likely behind the covid protocols?  For wanting a relationship with him?

where did Janelle’s family end up last Christmas?  I am so confused by the timeline 

[S17.E14: Which Wife is Next?]

I cannot watch because we only have one tv and our son is visiting and is watching a movie with his dad. At least I can see it later from the dvr. 
 

[Small Talk: The Polygamous Cul-de-Sac]

Ok, I am here. I can’t watch because son and husband are watching a movie on the only tv so I was counting on participating in the live chat which I thought might be hopping. 
p.s.   I had too much wine. Hope I can stay awake. 

[S17.E13: Coronapocalypse]

I have a house full of relatives and cannot watch tonight and I don’t stream.  Do we not have a live chat??  
p.s. I may have had too much wine

Guessing the Flagstaff kids don't include Daytinaroranbreanna or solnari

For Savannah, Gabe, and Garrison??? 3 each for her boys and 2 each for Janelle and Savannah

I thought they made the statement before season 16 started - timed perfectly to promote the season?

It was November 2, 2021.  Happy birthday present to me 🎉🎂🎈

Katie-Joy, the human tabloid, and the online tabloids get much of their info from here, Redditt and their own imaginations. WE are their sources.

Katie spent at least a decade obsessed with the Duggars. She claimed to have all these inside sources, yet I think of 100s of the breaking news she spewed, she maybe broke one story and was dead wrong on many of her stories and lucky on the rest. She now claims to have a source inside the jail Josh Duggar resides in.

We all have a better record of getting it right than Without a Crystal Ball's Katie-Joy.

I would think all the reports are based on the same “source.”  If true, there was probably a clause in her contract that she couldn’t announce it until either the last minute of the final episode of this season or as soon as the episode is ended. 
I do want Christine and Janelle to write that book. Maybe with a chapter by the kids included.

What stunt did she pull with the retreat?

I think it means advertising it for $6000 and then filling it with non-paying Lularoe down liners. I have been wondering if the original price was a publicity stunt to get it noticed more on social media than if she had offered it for $600 which would have been a lot more reasonable.   If so, it probably worked because I saw several items about it.

Don't know who was singink or the origins of the song but I learned that one about 80 years ago at the United Church of Canada. The verse went something like:

Jesus wants me for a sunbeam, to shine on him each day.

In every way try to please him, at home, at school, at play.

A sunbeam, a sunbeam, I'll be a sunbeam for him.

In the next episode , Christine was  singing with her girls so I wondered if one of them also sang the sunbeam song which I had never heard before.

Yes The Sun is not a reliable source of information. Don't put a lot of store in this.

it described them both as Utah-based, but Janelle is still in Flagstaff as far as we know. So that seems like sloppy reporting and I will discount most of the rest of it.  
I would expect her to stay “married” until Savannah graduates, but a girl can hope.

Robyn is going to end up hurting herself with the fake tears   She’s gonna pop something in her face     My face hurts just watching it   ( but i do have a broken orbital bone  )

I cannot believe she is too stupid to buy a menthol tear stick and rub it on a hankie. If she is too cheap, she could use onion juice. Then lightly dab under eye and let the tears roll. 😢😭

Kody was being chocked by his hoodie, I hate when that happens. 

But do you hate it when it happens to Kody?  Inquiring minds want to know.

was it an outward and visible sign of how he really feels toward Christine for leaving since it happened as he passed her old house?

But, Meri brags about all those friends outside the family who love her soooo much and fill her cup!!! That’s all she needs!! 

* sarcasm disclaimer 😂 

Dead.  🤣🤣🤣
so far her friends are even less interesting than Leon.  Meri is boring.

Meri Brown upset that Kody doesn’t want to work on things with her and doesn’t want to be in any kind of relationship with her anymore: 

https://www.today.com/popculture/tv/sister-wives-meri-brown-kody-relationship-disturbing-rcna60442

There’s no fixing this. What. Is. Meri. Still. Doing. There. But like a barnacle, her plans are to “stay” 10 15 20 years (her words). And it can’t be the money — Christine has been filming and she’s left.

If Kody wants her gone he’s gonna have to scream at her to get out. He might as well, he’s unhinged about everything else. I wish he would and just get it over with. 

Yes, Christine is still filming but she has her children, Janelle’s children as well as Janelle with whom she can interact and film. Meri just has Leon and Audrey. I think she likes being on tv.

For $6000 I would expect champagne and escargot.  Also silver plate flatware if not sterling and decent china. And I prefer to be served at table.  Can you tell I belong to a FB group called Beautiful Table Settings🤣

weird, just got a notice from Shipt app about cookies while I looked at her ice cream bar

I am re-watching the move from Lehigh to LV, and there is background music with someone singing about being a sunbeam for Jesus. Does anyone know who is singking?   I am watching on demand and I think they cut off the credits. Each episode is about 25 minutes without the long commercials and the stuff they repeat during the originals

She may be realizing that the other wives leave the show and their income go, plus she then has to deal with her five kids and Kody prob in a smaller house with no help. She’s on the cusp of too told to rein him in with another baby. Prob afraid if he seeks another wife she’ll be stuck in a tiny rental being treated the way she did the previous wives. Although I wouldn’t wish Kody and this mess on anyone, I’d almost pay to see a manipulative 20 year old, it would have to be a mail order bride type, come after her throne and take it.

I think the last thing Kody wants is more children with either Robyn —almost too old—-or another wife, but I wouldn’t put it past him to bring in #5 if he thought it would keep the TLC $$ coming in.
