On another note: Do people still visit tanning salons? Hello, skin cancer and premature wrinkling!!!

I go to the tanner, and I'm a sun baby too.

Off topic, a thought just occurred to me when someone mentioned Jeff upthread. I wonder if the producers saw how we (the older ladies) oohh and ahh over Jeff and Randy so that's why they're on there a lot more than Leah's mom and step dad are featured. Eye candy for the older crowd? Just a thought.

I joined twitter yesterday just so I could follow these girls and going through Jenelle's twitter what pops up? A time hop post of Nathan's damn nipple. Ewww, that guy is skeevy as heck.

I did come across this article that states Corey is using Leah's prescription drug use in court to gain custody, but I wouldn't be surprised if there's illicit drug use going on too that we just don't know about yet.

I liked AND quoted because you are totally awesome.

 

And to MKAY (or to whomever posted the link to the tanning beds) those tanning beds are all sorts of gaudy looking rocket ships, aren't they?  I've never tanned a day in my life, but aren't they usually plain white?

[Mkay]

 You know Leah, she can't have the simple, basic$ 2,000 tanning beds.  I'm sure they were some kind of rocket ship, fly to the moon and  back cheeto toned tanning beds for 8,000.  But for whatever reason her tanning salon never opened.  That was the summer of 2013.

 

Edited because I found one online.  http://suntanasupply.com/usedbeds.htm    Make: SUN ERGOLINE

I read, and I think it was in Kail's book when she was giving the reader an idea of scenes that were reenacted, that the scene you are talking about between Leah and Cory mentioned above was in fact a reenactment which might be a reason for no emotions.

No, not at all. 

[GreatKazu]

Of course not, because Cory has to show his emotions. He must show his heart on his sleeve in order for him to have a valid reason for being hurt for the pain Leah caused. Cory shows more emotion than that thing that lays around in her bed all damn day with her nipple-baring guy. How dare Cory not show crocodile tears on camera! Pfft.

Please, please, please send that to Leah's Twitter page.

 

 

 

Cory has not elaborated on Leah's "lifestyle" and the way she's raising the kids.  I gotta respect him for that.  I think that's pretty mature on his part.  I don't think that's something that Adam, or even Jo would do.

Actually, Jo, like Cory, doesn't go there. Neither of those two sell stories or bash their exes to the media. In fact, both have refrained from putting info out there. Jo has defended Kail.  Jo has an ex who has it out for him because he chose not to resume a relationship with her. Kail can act like she has changed, but in fact, that slithering snake is still there. Kail and Leah are always going to their social media pages to vent, complain and take stabs at their exes in one way or another. Both of them have sold their souls to the devil with all of their interviews to all the tabloids, websites and of course, Kail with her book. It's all about the mighty dollar! Why go establish a career when it is easy to just bash the fathers of their children and get paid for it? They have their adoring fans and viewers who will side with them no matter what, stroking their huge egos.

"...not her first time at the rodeo." That was a good one! And if you think about it, Cory and Leah's relationship was strained from the start because of their premature "bonding" in the physical sense without even knowing much about each other. Didn't Leah get pregnant within the first month or so of dating Cory? So, really, they probably should never have gotten married at all.

Yet, if the welfare of the children was top priority, then ideally all efforts probably should have been made - by both Cory and Leah - to change their destructive ways, to work through their differences and to raise their girls together in the healthiest environment they possibly could create.

I think Cory was mature in giving Leah a second chance after that dalliance with Robbie, but his passive-aggressive approach to punish her for the deed is what I think delivered the coup de grace in that marriage. I can vividly recall Leah's persistence in attempting to coax a response from Cory. Maybe it was due to editing, but Cory seemed chronically absent emotionally from Leah. Doesn't anyone remember Leah trying to generate some sort of verbal exchange with him only to have Cory respond in grunts or mumbles? At some point in filming producers resorted to adding subtitles for those scenes. I believe Cory had plans to end the marriage shortly after hearing of the Leah/Robby thing.

In short, I am not disputing Leah's inadequacies as a person or as a mother (she's not perfect, clearly). And I am not saying the marriage should have lasted -- it never should have happened at all, obviously -- I just don't side with Cory in his objective to "out" Leah by implying his situation is superior in terms of raising the twins.

My understanding was that Leah got pregnant from a one night stand with Corey... She just got incredibly lucky he stuck around... But feel free to correct me if I'm wrong I haven't seen her 16 and pregnant in forever.

[zenme]

leighroda, I believe you're right. She met him at a party after she and Robbie supposedly broke up, and she and Corey had sex in his truck that night resulting in the twins. Yeah. I'd say she's lucky he stuck around.

[lumpy narwhale]

her constant complaining about being overwhelmed with the girlses on camera is certainly not going to do leah any favors if the judge in their custody case sees any of it in evidence.

I mostly remember Corey having moved on from Cheating Fiasco #1 and Leah making him a reconciliation dinner and a card.  I think she wooed him back with promises of having his family back together under one roof which was obviously appealing to them both.  She knew who Corey was when she decided she wanted him back.  She knew that he was a quiet guy who wasn't the kind to serenade her in the streets or ramble on about his feelings for her.  I think it would be unfair of her to hold that against him, much more unfair then it would be for him to hold the Robbie thing against her, which for the record, I don't remember him doing.

 

I also don't think Corey is unemotional.  He's cried probably more than any other guy I've ever seen on the Teen Mom shows, and with good reason between Ali's issues and Leah's nonsense.  I wouldn't say he's passive aggressive either.  Corey strikes me as very much what you see is what you get.  He lays out his position clearly:  we can't afford the paint, I need a truck to get to work more than we need a new house right now, I don't want Ali to only use the wheelchair and stop using her legs.  What he isn't so good at in my opinion is asking for more information.  I think when Leah was explaining the deal with the wheelchair, Corey really thought Ali would be using it all the time but when Jeff explained she would be using it to GET to the playground not AT the playground, it was like the light went on and he didn't have any more objections.

 

Once they married, I also remember a tired Corey coming home from work and Leah nagging him that he didn't help with the dishes and stuff.  Even Lee and Dawn had to remind her that was her job since Corey's was working at the water department.  I remember how Corey said that Jeremy must have had something good because Leah was doing laundry, which means she must have not been doing much of it while she was married to him.  We saw her mad at him because he wouldn't call off work to go to little appointments so he could save his leave time for the ones where they were trying to get a diagnosis for Ali.  And of course, there was the how dare he watch porn and not have sex with her when he was tired from work.  In short, all through the marriage it seemed like Leah thought Corey could do nothing right.  This is the man that Leah wanted back so badly?  I'd sit there and be quiet, too.  And then after putting up with all of this, he has has to go through Cheating Fiasco #2 only this time at her bachelorette party!  What's funny to me is even with all I just wrote, I have never seen Corey hit Leah in the face with bacon, yell at her, cuss her, and tell her not to cry like Jeremy does.  Karma?

 

I think Corey would be superior at raising the kids.  Maybe 50/50 would be ideal, but I don't think Leah's parenting is superior to Corey's.  I've seen zero evidence that it is.  I think the kids are calmer at his house and better fed.  I don't have much more to go on because it's a TV show, but it's more than I can say for Leah.

Holy light bulb in my head....

 

In light of all we're seeing unfold between Leah and Cory and the custody issue, I just realized that perhaps one of the concerns Cory had about getting a wheelchair was because he suspected Leah might just plop Ali into it first thing in the morning and then leave her in it all day to make it less "stressful" for her.

 

I'm also wondering if that's the reason Leah's in such a goddamned hurry for Cory to somehow circumvent all the usual protocol with an insurance company for approval and make this wheelchair miraculously appear...to relieve her of the "stress" of having to supervise one less child walking around.  

 

See, I hate it when I go there without any proof but after reading all the walks down Teen Mom Memory Lane in the past few pages of this thread and remembering just how godawful lazy Leah is, now I'm wondering if there was more than meets the eye about the whole wheelchair situation.

[ghoulina]

You may be right, Persnickety. I don't know that Leah would put Ali in it ALL the time. Ali is pretty willful and independent. But Leah is also super lazy, IMO. I can see Corey being concerned that Leah would overuse it. I still don't think he would go so far as to deny her access to one based on that, but I never thought his concerns about total dependence on the wheelchair were unfounded. 

 

Also, I may be going to hell, but I think Leah has some type of mental disorder where she gets off on the attention and sympathy she garners from having a child with a disability. I can see her wanting the chair not just for Ali, but so it's even more obvious how put upon this saint of a mother is.

It's call Manchausen by Proxy Snydrome.    I've often thought she has it.  I've also thought the same thing about the wheelchair. 

[SPLAIN]

I too mentioned the possibility that Leah wanted the wheelchair simply to ease her burden. I will give Leah the benefit of the doubt that she was concerned with the pain Goggles was in. It isn't easy to watch one's child be in pain and to be denied the use of something that can help relieve their pain.

 

With me nursing my own pain right now, I see that MTV has a mini-marathon going on right now. In the episode titled "What You See Is What You Get" there is an exchange between Germy and Leah where he mentions his dislike of the texting that goes on between Cory and her. Later, Cory and Leah have a discussion with no kids and no spouses around. Cory asks Leah how it is to have Jeremy home. He is referencing the whole matter of Leah wanting Jeremy in town instead of going out-of-town.  Leah must complain a lot to Cory. No wonder he wants to relieve her of all of this stress she is under.  This is what transpired:

 

Cory:  (referencing caring for the girls) "It's easier with him [Germy] home." 

 

Leah: "I'm used to taking care of them on my own anyways."

Now, she does it on her own. No help from no one. She is used to taking care of them? So, what is all that complaining she was saying on camera in every episode and obviously texting and calling Cory about?

 

The discussion of co-parenting is brought up and Cory mentions how Miranda deals with everything well. Leah then says, "Jeremy has issues with me communicating with you." She goes on to say Germy shouldn't be jealous, but he is. Leah rattles on about how she reminds Germy that she must communicate with the father of her kids no matter what.

 

The next scene shows Leah, Germy and Cory at the girls' tumbling class. When they leave, Leah confronts Germy in the truck WITH THE GIRLSES IN THE BACK SEAT, about how she hates Jeremy "ganging up with Cory". The conversation is Leah feels Germy is siding with Cory on things he says to make Leah feel bad while then talking behind his back by saying things such as "Cory is stupid."  Germy than states he is, "uncomfortable with things." Leah then says to Germy how he just doesn't like her talking to Cory at all.

 

The next scene shows Germy and Leah at home where she mentions the feeling of being alone, how Germy puts his work as a priority, he shuts her down, and Germy doesn't show her any feelings. She then says, "I only want YOU when you are gone."

 

Now, I think that was the root of all of this co-parenting going down hill.

 

Leah and Cory were working as a team. Germy is jealous. She accuses Germy of siding with Cory, but Germy's intentions are false. Now, we have Leah siding with Germy, talking smack about Cory every chance she gets, it is as if she is trying to assure Germy there is nothing for him to be jealous of and in order to assure him of that, she has now made Cory to be this god-awful father. I think Leah has been manipulated by Germy and in order to appease him, she now has to show him how Cory is at fault for everything and that she is on "Germy's side".  Now, isn't this the same thing Leah accused Germy of doing to Cory? Germy siding with Cory only to piss off Leah because of his insecurities? Leah is now siding with Germy to piss off Cory because of Germy's insecurities.

I also thought Leah enjoyed trying to pit Cory against Germy, whining to Cory about Germy's perceived shortcomings and then whining to Germy about Cory's perceived shortcomings.  

 

Sometimes I thought she had illusions of grandeur, playing out in her scheming little head a scene in which Cory and Germy would thrown down for the love of the fair maiden.  *snort*

 

I also got a vibe a lot of her texting to Cory was being done perhaps to antagonize Miranda as well.

 

If only she exerted half as much energy into finding something constructive to do with her free time rather than texting, she might have actually been able to make one of her "business" ideas work.

 

Well, okay, probably not the Mary Kay, but maybe the tanning salon, nursing school, cosmetology, or one of her other misadventures.  

[SPLAIN]

That is Leah's problem. One of them, anyways. Leah needs to stop talking to everyone about other people while trying to paint herself as the innocent victim.

 

I too got the feeling all of that texting was to piss off Miranda. That whole mess at the reunion when Leah supposedly let the cat out of the bag about Cory cheating on Miranda, was again to piss off Miranda, but I also felt Leah was trying to break up Cory's relationship because he chose Miranda and not her.  Leah then mentions to Germy that Cory wanted his family back. Why would she say that to her husband and then act surprised that he is jealous? With her track record of cheating on her husband, it isn't far-fetched to understand why Germy felt threatened and took his feelings to the strip bar.

 

Cory wanting his family back was taken out of context by Leah. Cory mentioned in that same episode that "divorce sucks" because he is not with his girls as much as he would like to be. He said being with them on weekends wasn't enough, but it is what it is and he deals with it. Leah turned that comment around to make it sound like Cory wanted HER when all he wanted was his family - his girls.

I don't think that's exactly right; Munchausen is when a disease is created or faked for attention.  Ali definitely has real deficits, but Leah is certainly glorying in the attention she gets as the mother of a sick child.

I researched it some more and you're correct that it's not exactly right.  As much as I dislike Leah, I can't imagine her doing some of the things I read about.  Maybe she'll get a new syndrome named after her.  She'd love that.

[lovesnark]

I love it when the planets align and shit just drops into your lap! I have the TV on and am listening to the marathon while I do other stuff. A very dear friend who happens to be an RN of 40+ years came over. I was completely shocked that she was familiar with this show and even more floored when she told me that Jenelle is wasting her time and money going to school to be a MA. She's been in the field forever and has done the interviewing and hiring for a lot of doc's offices. She said that no matter how good someone's grades were and no matter how well the interview went, an extensive background check is done on every applicant and any criminal history boots them out of the running for the job, whether it was for drugs, DV, theft or whatever.  She said that some docs won't even hire someone with a long list of traffic violations because it implies they have a problem following rules.

 

So, that helps answer some of our questions about Jenelle's choice of school. And, I discovered I have a very unexpected comrade to snark with.

Good to know I'm not the only one. But I always thought Manchausen by Proxy was when the parent was intentionally MAKING the child ill, in order to garner sympathy?

 

ETA - ooops! Looks like that was already cleared up. Yea, I definitely don't see Leah going so far as to harm her child, but I do think she likes being the victim.

lovesnark, to me it's just so typical of Jenelle to enroll in a field that she doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of being hired in. That's just her. She's so deluded and ass-backwards with every choice she makes in her life. Her history of drug use has been well documented both on the show and within the courts. So a doctor is going to hire her and leave her within reach of a prescription pad? Yeah, not going to happen.

Can you imagine Jenelle greeting a patient and taking a history? She'd walk into the waiting room and in her monotone, dead voice say 'John Smith? Dude, yer next.' Then, she'd tell him that she's freakin exhausted from workin this freakin job 20 hours a week and really needs to freakin lay down, like now.

[fliptopbox]

I think things vary from state to state, but I have had no issue with getting jobs at doctors' offices where I live and I have a DUI from 10+ years ago on my record. But I am not an RN, which is a field where I do know that matters. As an MA it hasn't, and I have submitted my consent for numerous background checks to large medical facilities. If it would have been an issue I'm sure I would have been notified.

 

Although I am sure with a laundry list of drug charges like Jenelle has there's no way in hell any medical facility would let her go behind the scenes. Her becoming an MA is a total waste of time and money, although I am sure her school would never admit that. They'll just smile and nod to keep getting those tuition checks.

[rhofmovalley]

Then she'd yell "leave me aloooonnnneeee!!!!" when the doctor or office staff tells her to stop napping on the patient exam tables or scrounging for drugs and get her ass back to work.

[fliptopbox]

Where does Jenelle find these lawyers? I swear they all look like total n00bs, in crappy shopping center offices. Nothing official about them in the least. The few times I have needed to see a lawyer I felt like I was in the presence of a competent professional with an actual education. Not so from these folks.

[ChristmasJones]

Janelle doesn't strike me as someone who could maintain stable employment, regardless of the field. She just doesn't have the work ethic, the motivation. She is impulsive and would likely quit any time her boss told her what to do.

 

I wonder what she'll be doing five years from now, as she doesn't pick dependable guys like Leah and Kail seem to do, and she also doesn't seem to have what it takes to provide for herself.

[rhofmovalley]

Why the H does Chelsea talk to Aubree in a baby voice???  AUBREE doesn't use a baby voice, she has that awesome husky voice.  So if Chelsea's trying to "talk down" to Aubree's level, well, she's talking years below Aubree's level IMO.

 

Drives me nuts...

[fliptopbox]

I'm sure that Jenelle and Kaiser will be back at Barb's making everyones' lives miserable as soon as she and Nipples break up. Once the TM2 train is gone she'll probably find herself with another loser guy, possibly knocked up again. I wouldn't be surprised to learn she's returned to her drug habit either. As far as her ability to make money, who knows. All I can hope is that Barb cuts her off at some point.

Why the H does Chelsea talk to Aubree in a baby voice???  AUBREE doesn't use a baby voice, she has that awesome husky voice.  So if Chelsea's trying to "talk down" to Aubree's level, well, she's talking years below Aubree's level IMO.

 

Drives me nuts...

 

It's sadly not only to Aubree.  

 

She's using that voice with increasing frequency with her friends and co-workers/clients as well.  

 

I gather you missed her baby-talk spiel about her "pretty kitty"?  

 

I'm still trying to bleach my ears after hearing THAT come out of her mouth, made even more disturbing by the baby talk voice.

 

*shudder*

lovesnark, to me it's just so typical of Jenelle to enroll in a field that she doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of being hired in. That's just her.

 

Didn't she attempt to get a job at a daycare once??? She is simply delusional. 

 

Then she'd yell "leave me aloooonnnneeee!!!!" when the doctor or office staff tells her to stop napping on the patient exam tables or scrounging for drugs and get her ass back to work.

 

And when the work gets too overwhelming, she'll tell the office manager - "My feelings for this place have dropped" and walk out.

I vaguely remember Jenelle's job interview at the daycare. She had about as much enthusiasm as a wet sponge. Her only skills were half assedly parenting her own kid. The lady who interviewed her is probably watching now and thinking "Thank GOD! We TOTALLY dodged a bullet there!"

How perfect. Just what he needs!

Hopefully his next job pays big money with all the child support he'll be needing to pay.

If someone will hold him down, I'll be more than happy to snip his equipment.

I'm a farm girl and have castrated all sorts of little boy farm animals. I also volunteer every week at a cat spay/neuter clinic. Between the two of us, I'm sure we could figure a vasectomy out. After all, we're not removing anything, just a little snip and tie.

PLEASE someone castrate this man!!  A vasectomy is too good for him!!  And since he obviously cannot wear a condom, I wonder how many STDs he has that he's passing along from chick to chick to chick?

[RedKoolAide]

I'm not even shocked. He's a loser.

[Persnickety1]

It's just mind boggling, isn't it?

 

I mean, Chelsea was just 16 years old when she was with him and got pregnant.  "Young and dumb," as the saying goes.

 

But now?  These are grown-assed women apparently standing in line to not only have sex with this chucklefuck but unprotected sex, risking not only disease but pregnancy...With a complete douche king who has a reputation all over social media and on the show for being a crappy, uninvolved parent, who, if I'm not mistaken, didn't even want to pay child support for Aubree until he was forced to.

 

I don't get it.  Putting aside the fact I've always found the dude totally fugly, he has the personality of a used condom, is always in and out of trouble with the law, and has the maturity of a 12-year-old at best.  

 

Is it really that desolate in that area, where a shithead like Adam is something to strive for?  Is he the only man not suffering from erectile dysfunction in that town and hence the only one who can provided the hot beef injection?  Is it something in the water supply making these women inexplicably attracted to his sorry ass?  Does he have mystical powers to attract local women to him apparently in droves?

 

I just don't get it.  Maybe some of them are just enjoying the second-hand "pseudo-celebrity" status but...to be saddled with this jackhole for the rest of your life by having a child with him?  It just defies all logic and reason.

Nooooo. I knew it was coming. But still.....nooooo. I'm totally down with starting a fund to snip his junk.

I would be if I thought it would actually be used for that. Instead he'd probably use it for beer money.

[GreatKazu]

Chelsea called this one. Is anyone really shocked?

 

Next season's storylines...Kail fights for more custody time while dealing with the stress of school. Jenelle and Nathan fight about Kaiser while hoping to regain custody of Jace. Jenelle and Barb argue. Leah struggles with daily living and fights with Cory. Jeremy and Leah fight over financial problems. Chelsea finds out some news about Adam.

 

It's the same ol' shit season after season, except now there are more babies added to the mix. Fuck!

Oh we wouldn't give him a choice. =)

Adam got another woman pregnant? He is about to have 3 kids with 3 different women. (That we know of). That is crazy! Who are these people? I agree with the poster who mentioned that you can kind of feel for Chelsea. She was a dumb, sheltered teenager from a small town and five years ago Adam didn't look quite so much like an STD filled hobo. Now? Who are these women having sex with this guy? I've said this before and I'll say it again: I'm a responsible, nice woman working, volunteering, and studying for my MA, I like baseball, the beach, and Hitchcock films. I have no criminal record and I use the Oxford comma. I have not been on a date in probably a year. Adam seems to find brain damaged people to have sex with everywhere he goes!

I think Leah pushed for the wheel chair because she was raised to be a quick fix type of person. Seriously, her whole family seems pretty much like dumb white trash with a big "working the system" attitude. I'm sure the wheel chair seemed like a fix to Leah and she got so mad at Corey because I think she grew up in home where she saw adults game the system to get what they want so she didn't understand why Corey wasn't just playing his insurance company to get what she wanted (I'm not saying it makes actual sense, just that it made sense to her). Corey's family seems a little bit better educated and stable and to have more of a slow and steady wins the race attitude so he naturally gravitated toward solutions like therapy that fit into that mind set. Truth be told, Ali probably needs both. People to help her do the long, consistent, boring therapy that doesn't yield big shinny rests and someone who's willing to nag the insurance company into giving her the fanciest new equipment available. BUT Corey is not in denial and it pisses me off every time Leah says that. People disagreeing with Leah are not in denial. She pulled the same shit when they were married. If you disagree with her you're in denial about it.

Vermillion has a population of around 11,000 and Sioux Falls has a population of around 160,000.  There are plenty of great guys here in SD, Adumb just doesn't happen to be one of them.  

 

I'll be visiting both Vermillion and Sioux Falls a couple times in the next few weeks.  I hope Adumb really is in jail so the streets will be safe.  I wouldn't mind a Chelsea, Randy, or Aubree siting though.
