Churchhoney June 15, 2015 Share June 15, 2015 (edited) I have a confession to make: I have a denim skirt, well actually it's a skort and it's above the knees. (NIKE!) Ummm can I wear it or should I sew a panel on the bottom? Did you say "skort?" Sorry. You'll need to wear a long skirt over that. Also -- apparently you weren't paying attention in the JTTH nondefrauding couture seminar. See Mr. Gothard in his office. Edited June 15, 2015 by Churchhoney 6 Link to comment
Cherrio June 15, 2015 Share June 15, 2015 "Countenance", Cherrio. COUN-TE-NANCE. You know... Like PER-PEN-DI-CU-LAR. And yes, Dill, I believe prairie dresses would be appropriate but you have to do that perm thing BEFORE you leave or you'll stink up the bus even worse. Please remember the leggings UNDER the prairie dress. Bonus points if you can locate your blouse with the ENORMOUS square collar. (You may have to launder if you've worn it recently...hehe) Ok, ok......I promise to "porpoise" myself to remember countenance. 3 Link to comment

I have a lead stomach, and can't even THINK how to respond to cake milkshakes and dill pickles in the same sentence. Are you pregnant?Also, I think it's actually more acceptable if the leggings DO NOT match the dress. If the dress is an "official" Duggarish prairie ensemble, and reaches the ankles, you probably can forego the leggings as long as you don't flop your legs over your head like Josie. Did you find the blouse with the lovely pointy collar out to your shoulders? I've just had official word from Mr. Gothard: you may leave the leggings off IF you find (and wear) the blouse. I really shouldn't make fun of the blouses; in the 80's, that was pretty chic. (Along with crunchy hair, and I had that going on too!) Link to comment

Don't wear any clothing made out of printed materials, though, especially the leggings, or the blouses. Printed materials are "eye traps," so you'd be defrauding poor helpless men no matter how many other layers you had on. (I swear that this "prints are eye traps" thing is in the ATI materials somewhere. 3 Link to comment

Happyfatchick June 16, 2015 Share June 16, 2015 Yesterday, I actually hoofed my way through that God-awful Duggar thing where they were building the house. (PER-PEN-DIC-U-LAR). No idea why, but I did it. Something smacked me on the way by, but I didn't stop it or really believe I'd SEEN it, and that nobody else had mentioned it. Far into this clip, they're talking about the buddies and jurisdictions, etc., and there's a clip of Jana feeding a baby. Am I SERIOUSLY the only person who caught this??? I didn't really, but there was SOMETHING about this scene that bothered me. So here it is, like that kids magazine in a doctor's office: WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE??? https://www.dropbox.com/sc/bx6duxtn56cd2vk/AAACz8fR3onp513wZgZqn54Ca This.just.BLOWS.MY.MIND. On the other hand, I'm a relative newbie and you probably discussed this to death before I was around. If so, sorry. If not, ENJOY!!! Link to comment
frenchtoast June 16, 2015 Share June 16, 2015 It's canned peas, not baby food. Straight from the can, not heated up, too. Canned peas are gross enough, but cold canned peas is most likely worse. 4 Link to comment

lookeyloo June 16, 2015 Share June 16, 2015 The canned peas look just like the "container" my mother used for our vegetables. Red meat (because my father demanded it) , salad consisting of lettuce, tomato, cucumber and onion, and a can, yes a can of vegetables, drained, and can on table. We have come to the conclusion that she spent most of her life clinically depressed and didn't even like (or eat) most of what she served. So I am happy with peas straight from the can, as long as they are room temp. And beets, and corn and green beans...well, you get the idea. As soon as I got married I banned cans on the table. 3 Link to comment

Yeah, I noticed that too! Probably because it was a vegetable it was deemed healthy! Perhaps if the Duggars had any kind of a clue about proper nurtrition they wouldn't have to coat their countenance in so much acne hiding makeup! Link to comment

Happyfatchick June 17, 2015 Share June 17, 2015 (edited) cmr2014, on 16 Jun 2015 - 9:37 PM, said: When I was very very little (4-5), I occasionally had a nightmare where I was being chased by a man in a mask wearing a black cape (a bit like the Hamburgler). I mention this because we are hard-wired to want to be able to tell the good guys from the bad guys. We want to believe that we could identify a child molester (e.g. creepy guy in raincoat hanging around the park), but we really can't. * * * * * * I copied this from an excellent post by cmr2014 just a bit ago on another thread, and it's not funny. But it reminds me of something (because everything reminds me of something...) I was in a Bible study group with a bunch of young marrieds like myself in the early 70's. One night, during a very serious sharing time in the group, we were talking about things that frightened us. Frightened us as children, frightened us as adults. Scary, scary world. This one guy starts talking, and he's sharing from his heart (almost crying, really) about the "cardboard monster" he was afraid of as a child. The cardboard monster (his description) was this huge round piece of cardboard on a stick, and it comes to life. (I pictured a huge round flat lollipop. On a stick). It gets flat up against the house, and it slides under windows and GETS little children in their SLEEP!!! He was TERRIFIED of the cardboard monster. Of course, because we were a serious and caring group, we all sat there looking at his stricken face and there was total stunned silence for about 30 seconds. And then... simultaneously ALL burst into hysterical laughter. I laughed so hard, I hurt myself!!! People were doubled over, crying with laughter. He never cracked a smile. I'm not sure he ever came back to sharing time, either though. Oopsie! Edited June 17, 2015 by Happyfatchick 1 Link to comment
Love2dance June 17, 2015 Share June 17, 2015 Happyfatchick, as a very young child (about 3-6) I was terrified to go to sleep because I would see huge hamburgers, the size of a large blanket, crawling up my walls to the ceiling. They weren't even after me, but I was so scared I would see them that I left the light on until I fell asleep. Maybe something about the shape makes it a common night terror? It seems silly now, but I was terribly frightened. I forgot about that until I read your post. OK, so now you can laugh! :) (Maybe should be in Small Talk thread?) 1 Link to comment

No aspersions to Ms. Gyllenhaal, but she tends to wear dowdy clothes. Adrian Brody us too old to play Derrick, but perhaps an up & coming actor with his build/looks. And those two fame whores from some scripted realiry show. I can't remember their names, but they're married. She's Heidi or Holly & has had like 9 plastic surgeries in one day b4 she was 25. They can be Ben & Jessa. 1 Link to comment
