They would have to pay ME to see any one of them.

Sad to think that there are actually sycophants who pant for the privilege.

I'd like to see the number of sycophants who have paid out $ for each of them

Christine had over 200 reviews, last time I checked. Presumably not everyone leaves a review. Kody had about 14.

Kody doesn’t care. Move on !

[Cetacean]

Why does she post this nonsense?  It makes no sense.  Is it supposed to make us think she's strong and independent or something?  Because there is plenty of evidence to the contrary that's been splashed on TV and SM.  

Give it up, loser.

[Sasha888]

Meri is exhausting to even watch on tv and follow on this board - it's no wonder people avoid her in real life.

I guess today's mood is bitter and vengeful.

You're all over the map, girl! It's this bitter nonsense, or it's "strong woman", or it's lonely and tearful, or super happy with my LuLaFriends, or determined to get Kody back no matter how many times he publicly rejects you...I mean, yikes.

Time to talk to a real therapist, and I don't mean Nancy.

Vacation from what?  Has the B&B been inundated with guests? 

These non-working people and their frequent vacations make me nuts.  Try working 50 weeks of the year and getting a big 14 days off.  The longest I ever had, working 45 straight years full time, was 3 weeks.

Apparently shilling has its perks.  Who knew.

You've got me beat.  The longest break I got from 24+ years in my last job was two weeks.  

Yeah, the Brown Clowns live large and vacation larger.  Is Meri headed to Disneyland again, I suppose?  Nah, probably going to see Snowflake.

In the time Meri spent putting up all her Christmas tchotche's throughout the inn, she could have taken down the wallpaper in the living room and painted it. Also, I wonder if she has looked under all the very dated carpet to see the condition of the floors. Given the age of the house I would think there would be hardwoods at least in the main living areas. Even if not in perfect condition, ripping out the carpet and exposing wood floors could be a huge improvement.

I will give Mykelti ten dollars, but not for a video. I want a written message because I want to see her attempt to spell things.

I am double liking this!

A fan points out that Meri Brown is acting completely different (desperate) on the show than she does on IG (strong and happy) and it pisses Meri off (because it is TRUE):

I wonder if this means Meri is vaccinated.  Here in Portland (Lake Oswego is akin to a suburb) you have to show your vaccination card to eat indoors.

And I am totally good with that.

[deirdra]

Is she indoors or outdoors on a patio with tenting over it?

Perhaps Blair's husband took the photo and applied the anti-brown-tooth & skinny filter.

What a lovely.....empty..... place to vacation..... Guess it's fitting for an empty nester-divorced woman who desperately wants to escape her empty house and empty life, full of empty and meaningless expressions, her empty bank account and empty parcel of land on CP.....

I somehow doubt Meri’s bank account is empty. She has been hustling and conning people into joining LLR to sell cheaply made garbage. Meri is pretty high up in that world and probably makes enough of her own $$. 

Kinda funny that Meri takes issue with being called “desperate”, even though her actions on the show indicate otherwise—like being happy Kody wants to talk to her about anything at all. That’s. SO. Desperate.

Meri posted a short video on IG of herself mouthing someone else's words about how the best time to start your own business is before you're ready or something like that, blah blah blah....I see this is a thing on TikTok and I don't really get it and I pretty much need everyone to get off my lawn, especially Meri and her platitudes.  The water in my hose will be ice-cold this time of year too, just saying.

It’s incredibly predatory and common in MLMs. Almost happened to me—I use Rodan + Fields and my person kept pressuring me to buy the business kit. And pressuring. And pressuring. And saying “you’ll never do it if you keep thinking you’re not ready”. 

I got so mad I stopped ordering the product for a while. I love the products, hate the pressure. I do not want to sell the products, just use them.  It’s expensive anyways and the last thing I want to do *ever* is pressure people into spending money they don’t have much of.

She may not be financially broke, but she is morally bankrupt making a living from a predatory company and emotionally zeroed out if she remains in a situation where she is no longer wanted simply to keep her image before prospective customers and minions.

With all the other comments focusing on the Pyramid Schemes of MLM, the only thing Blair could think to comment on was her hair, LOL!

50% of new businesses go bankrupt.

Typical MLM propaganda - "sorry that they have done that to themselves". Blame the victim.

[DakotaJustice]

Mary Kay is absolutely an MLM scam.  Check out pinktruth.com. 

Overpriced products, frontloading inventory, encouraging signups over sales...

[Kellyee]

Meri is successful at Lularoe because she started with a large audience of people who.watch the show. The average person has a much harder time making any profit with MLM. It would be like me going on Cameo. Same for Christine and Janelle with Plexus. Statistics on MLM don't lie.

I want to know where Meri is spending Christmas and whether Kody is only seeing Robyn again this year. Meri posted nothing on Thanksgiving, which really makes me wonder what has been happening.

What a terribly cruel thing for her to say. I know she believes it because she's indoctrinated, but it's still horrible to say about victims of her scam. (Yes, I think she and people like her are complicit. There is no ethical way to make money from an MLM. You're either the scammer or the scammed.)

[Rabbit Hutch]

The strongest women i know don't have to go round posting vapid platitudes, Meri. They just are, and they just do.  🙄

[xwordfanatik]

Leave it to Meri to post a lot of bullshit that means nothing.  Why can't she see herself the way we do?  (That'll be the day!)

There's a name for that type of behavior: Toxic Positivity. If you complain or aren't successful, it is because you didn't try hard enough. Kody uses the same tactic to gas light Christine and Janelle. 

Honestly, I think Kody and Meri two peas in a very messed up pod. They're both toxic in the same manipulative way.

Well, there is a reason that Utah and MLM go hand in hand. This exact line of thinking is built into the Mormon doctrine.  If you are unhappy in your life, it is your fault for not being close enough to god.  Pray until you are happy. Period. Just switch a few words around and you aren't successful in your "business"? You're fault, work harder.

And then like the church, you are encouraged to immerse yourself into the MLM, surround yourself with only other MLM people and then continue to police each other until all are brainwashed and become the worker bees of the whole thing.

At this point Meri needs deprogramming more than therapy.

Quote "I'm not negotiating my value with anyone. I'm worth it!"  

This is by far the dumbest quote I have ever seen!   It would be a perfect fit for someone offering his/her services in the escort industry.... at least, that's the first thing that crossed my mind. And of all the wives, it had to be Meri who posted this. The only one who would stop at nothing to get that worthless piece of a husband back even if that means humiliating and/or selling herself.

On a more serious note; no strong, independent and confident woman will ever say something like that about herself.  Simply because these women won't negotiate, they'll manage their own  life just fine😉

OMFG Meri. ANYONE who needs to keep reminding the world how “worthy” they are on SM has *major* insecurity issues and is not as comfortable in their skin as they want to come across.

I know a couple people like this and their social media is constant fishing for compliments and support. It’s a mix of bragging and strong this, strong that. Deep down, however, the person is so unsure of themselves they need those comments to boost their esteem. It gets so bad sometimes I have to snooze them. 

I might have empathy for Meri if she hadn’t been such a selfish, lying, manipulative bitch-face over the last decade. Instead, every time she posts this shit I’m laughing because she’s showing her weakness. 

[iwantcookies]

Go play with the banana Meri. It loves you unconditionally 😂.

[LilyD]

Leave - those- poor - bananas - alone - pleaseeee!!!😖🙃😜

[Sasha888]

Meri's not going to "negotiate her value" with anyone, but what she WILL do is get on TV every Sunday night and publicly beg for any scrap of attention from a man who is completely repulsed by her and wants nothing to do with her.

Did you feel you were standing up for yourself and your "worth" in last night's episode, Meri? You know, the one where you tearfully told all of us that you followed Robyn and Kody's several pages long list of rules for seven months, and for your trouble you were finally offered, in front of all of us, the humiliating consolation prize of a "play date"? During which Kody will, of course, be absent, because he can't stand you?

Bitch, please.

[Granny58]

I don't follow this thread so perhaps this has already been mentioned.  I watched a video last night that is recent (unlike the show) which claimed that Meri has left too.   Also, that she has a new man.   If so, I just want to say YAY!
