Sweet Fellowship: Duggars and Friends (aka the Bates Family and Other Featured Families Thread)

[Westiepeach]

And yet another grifted meal…

[BradandJanet]

Isn't a Not-Nurie (Kaylee?) rumored to have a sweet (male) friend whose father has a church in Mississippi?

How I hate the word precious thanks to Jillzilla.

[sheshark]

Pizza along with dear friends.  I like my pizza along with salad and a Cabernet. 

[GeeGolly]

I hope JillR is still photo dumping, or she better get her precious ass moving and go home. Hurricane Ida is coming and will be hitting Mississippi.

And to any in its path, be safe.

[Absolom]

They're home.  David has already afternoon preached at COVID Baptist.  She's about two weeks behind in the photo dumping.

COVID Baptist 🤣🤣🤣 snorts

I hope so. The more kids that get away from Jill the better.

Yep. The grandson of the pastor of the church they visited. On their trip out to pizza with the family, they only showed that (Kaylee) went with them. No other of their kids were shows. That just adds to the rumor! 

They were home in Ohio at least by Aug 14th. As pointed out above, the posts are now over 2 weeks behind. They visited the church in Mississippi on Aug 11. 

[iwantcookies]

Hope Kaylee was allowed to eat at the pizza place.

 

[crazy8s]

if there is a courting in the works Jilly is dragging out every single vacation thing before announcing it.

we have yet to hear from Timbits about his long, long drive back to ohio, then pics of the newington room and where she placed the items from magnolia and the grandfather clock, then an update of how happy she is to be back in the simple county life among the Amish, with some pics and video.

Maybe after that (and Kaylee) might get a courtship announcement if there is one to be made.

Maybe Timbot and MAMA will go on double date with Kaylee and her new beau. 
 

Poor Timbot and Phillipbot no wives for them anytime soon, or ever.

 

At least the girls will be married off one by one.

Y'all might remember Olivia Collingsworth. The Collingsworth have four children. They tour and sing. Olivia is the youngest and she was thought a candidate for a Duggar or Bates boy. (She has light red hair.) 

Olivia Collingsworth is engaged. Her fiance is rich. He has a college degree and a job and his family is rumored to be old money. 

Olivia herself I believe is well-educated and her family is smaller than most. She's also a Methodist although her family likes to call themselves generically Christian. 

[iwantcookies]

Look at her left arm/hand. It’s huge compared to the right arm. 

 

its probably a photoshop fail

Shocking isn't it  that she would choose someone with a job, college degree and family with money when she could have set her sights on a Duggar or Bates! I guess there is just no accounting for taste as my grandmother would say.

Yes. I'm eager to see how "the Amish" are coming along with the Victorian-Rustic Newington Room. However, there must be photos of the Rods' singing their way back to Ohio yet to dump. I hope they include cowbell videos. Jill didn't spend a month hauling that ironing board and those out-of-tune bells around  if not to share with her "fans." 

No celebration of Kaylee until Nurthan's issue has been born, visited, and plastered all over social media. Jill has priorities.

Nothing funny about hurricanes though. Be safe, all of you!

Several of the Bates boys, including that one, look like someone put a hand on top of their head, a hand under their chin, and smooshed all their features together. Or their granddaddy was a bulldog. 

Major LOL at the bad Photoshop/poor choice of angles that resulted in Esther's man-hand. 

I wonder if the MedicCorps poseurs will be headed to Louisiana tomorrow, with Lawson's AirPods in place.

I predict that Jill R is going to struggle for awhile coming to terms with her taste of “the good life” - she spent time in a waterfront home, relaxing and recreating, then visited Magnolia where decorations are more expensive than thrift stores, and who knows what else.

The free $$ from the government let her experience what so many of us work hard to afford/enjoy. Now she might understand what earthly delights can be, and she’ll struggle with wanting it again, and again. She’s seen how the other half live...

Thank you for putting into words what I have found creepy about Gill’s looks.

Nathan left with the chopper this morning. Both Kelly and Esther waxed rhapsodic about his exploits. 🙄

And then it will be time for Nurie’s baby, and we’ll never hear about anything else ever again unless Jill herself gets pregnant.

Someone explain to me how the HELL a low-level fundie, wannabe relief worker managed to get a helicopter. Unless you mean it's a Fisher-Price one and he drove to Louisiana with it strapped into the passenger seat next to him. 

This one seems appropriate for the MedicCorps poseurs. https://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-Imaginext-City-Helicopter-Medic/dp/B00EC0XXBM/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1H4YRO9NTNZCG&dchild=1&keywords=fisher+price+helicopter&qid=1630296149&sprefix=fisher+price+gel%2Caps%2C186&sr=8-3

I love the carefully staged photoshoot at Target.  I wonder what the store staff thought of it, especially with none of them wearing masks.

[BitterApple]

Yay, another prop for the oatmeal-and-weeds Instagram aesthetic.

Btw, what happened to their dog? I know she went to a six-week training program, but shouldn't that have been up by now? It feels like it's been forever since they ditched her dropped her off.

I'm actually looking forward to this pregnancy. The competition between Erin and Carlin is going to be vicious. Sure, Erin has the "miracle" baby angle, but Carlin is trendier and much better at working the social media algorithms. My money's on her for the attention-whoring win.

[3 is enough]

She announced very early.  In early July she took a negative test and talked about it on their weekly YouTube vlog.  Going to be a long pregnancy.

What about her slinky bridesmaid's dress for Katie's wedding?  She should have a bump by then, and, as I recall, the dress would not accommodate much of a bump.

Was that negative test just in July? I thought it was a couple of months ago. 

And yeah, it's time to bring Izzy home. IF they bring her home. Enthusiastic puppy and newborn baby don't seem like a good match in that tiny house. Of course, poor Izzy has probably had all her enthusiasm shocked out of her. ☹️ That won't stop Carvan from rehoming her.

[iwantcookies]

Carlin crew is boooriiing. Their Target photoshop is ridiculous and uninspired. Next.

I assumed at first that this was what she was going to call the room that the Amish have been diligently working on while she and the family were spreading Covid and ear-shattering harmonies all over the lower half of the contiguous United States.

Oh my gosh, I am SO sorry that I made fun of the oatmeal/weeds combo.  Please, do NOT let this become a thing.  I don't want to have to walk by a photographer and a weirdly color-coordinated family posing in the aisles when I just want to pick up my Honey Nut Cheerios and get out of there.  I also hope they put back every single thing they had in that cart...this is just beyond stupid.  Tell me this is not a trend.

Also, baby names for a Boy Nurthan: Jillson, Jilliam, Jilltopher, Jillothy, Jillathan.

I'm praying this isn't a trend as well. Retail work is hard enough. The last thing employees need is a bunch of asshole "Influencers" leaving carts full of crap all over the store once they're done with their photoshoots.

Schadenfreude would be idiots like Carlin and Erin having to work retail to make ends meet -- and I sincerely hope they get faced with self-entitled spoiled princesses who think making a giant mess in a store is no big deal. 

Carlin's level of self-obsession and showing off is embarrassing, and I'm not even related to her.
