Tough crowd!  She's wearing modern shoes with closed toes, pants, and a shirt that literally calls back to her family's ridiculous rules and there are still 35 things wrong with what she's doing.

Apparently the guy in the picture wrote comments on the post? from FB:
 

"Good coffee is always better when  enjoyed with great company."    

The guy in the photo, Matt wrote: "Imagine if I never met the broski."  Jeremy replied: "Not an enjoyable thought."    I hope Cade doesn't find out about this new bromance.

what a couple douches! Broski? 😆😆😆

Wait Matt actually said that.  He's quoting/paraphrasing "Magine if I never met the broskies." Drake (rapper/R & B/ mega music star) and the song God's Plan (by Drake).  God's Plan was the #1 song of 2018 according to Billboard. Drake is not a "Christian" artist like Kanye. The song was #1 including all genres.

Do I remember correctly that this free housing situation was temporary, as in six months?

RFP may be shining on and hitting up Rich Dude Jr. to put a word in Rich Dude’s ear about a longer term freebie.

Would you put it past RFP for even a split second?

Six months is up around January. So yeah, stare into Matt's eyes and hope for an extension from Mommy and Daddy.

They’re due for a really high-maintenance baby next time. For the kid’s sake, I can only hope it’s photogenic or Datty will gift it to dear friends.

Oh, trust me, it's coming. My brother's first son was an angel. Hardly cried, could sit on an airplane for ten hours with no complaint, adapted well to whatever was around him. Baby #2 was an absolute terror. Jingle's freewheeling coffee shop days will be over before long.

I am actively cheering the fall of the Duggar empire, but I also am not married to one of them. (Praise Jesus, Hallelujah, Amen). 

That being said, HE is married to one. I think Jinger is happy to have some distance from her family, but I really doubt she is pleased at the news filtering out of Arkansas. In fact, I am sure it is really upsetting to her, especially if implicates relatives other than Josh. So, if Jeremy had anything resembling basic decency toward his wife, he'd keep his opinions about his in-laws and their legal woes to himself and just privately gloat and keep any glee to himself.

Sigh.

Alas, he has nothing at all related to basic decency towards his wife or anyone other than himself. Maybe a smidge for FeliciTee at the moment. All the guy knows how to do is gloat, so he should get a fountain pen and a pocket square and go gloat in the corner!

Oh for sure. I am just baffled by the narrative a lot of people have in which Jeremy is somehow seen as better than his in-laws. He's really not. His beliefs are just as odious, and his character flaws are just as nasty in their own way.

I am hoping to see the empire crumble, but this could get ugly in ways that are not fun to watch.

Haha Well, he tries, but personally, his looks do nothing for me (I find him downright goofy-looking at times), and I find his fashion style sort of off-putting. Though I readily admit that is all personal preference. He certainly does try to look spiffy while being as big of an asshole as the in-laws he thinks he is better than.

The Duggar bar for style is very, very, very low so Jeremy can easily beat it.  I do see the goofy-looking sometimes, but I find him moderately attractive most of the time.

Hehe The Duggar style bar is so low!

Jeremy's rabbity teeth bother me. I actually thought he was better-looking when he and Jinger first got together, and he seemed to look less preppy in general. Still not my type, but I didn't really notice the rabbity teeth then. I also think he is one of those guys who needs facial hair. The pictures I have seen of him clean-shaven in general (to me) look worse than when he has some stubble. 

Oh, I didn't see this at first in your one comment, but yes, @Suzn, I totally agree this has the potential to get nasty in a way that might be uncomfortable to watch, let alone to experience. I guess that's why his decision to like that comment baffles me so much. 

I sincerely hope whatever the scandal is isn't sexual in nature for the sake of any potential victims. But also because I think that would likely be a devastating trip down memory lane for all the Duggar girls who were victimized by Josh, which includes Jinger. I don't want the family on TV, but I wouldn't wish that on anyone. I guess that's asking too much of Jeremy to think through the implications for a family scandal of any nature for his wife and the mother of his child.

I do agree that he seemed more attractive in the early days. His style, hair cut and facial hair are all a bit different.  He does have a nice body.  He's not particularly my type either, it's just that compared to the circus parade of the Duggars, he looks pretty good.

I added the comment about the ugliness that seems imminent.  I have limited tolerance for that sort of thing, even among people I don't like.

I think another highly possible explanation of this little incident is that Jer just  failed to pay attention when he liked that comment. 

After all, like so many of the comments RFP gets, it came from the little people and it mentioned the Duggars. I'd bet he spends as little time on such comments as possible and has a reflex response as he races onward through his feed.....hoping to finish it so he can spend more quality time with European clothing websites.

I can just see him racing through his comments, thumbs flying, and hitting 'like" to anything that in a very brief glance seems to come from a Duggar fan and not be a personal insult or unwelcome question directed at him. I'm sure he disdains Duggar fans, but they give him his numbers so he probably "likes" most of what comes from that direction.....And only stops a little longer to delete ones that he notices quickly hit one of his particular hot buttons.

He probably barely registers at all the comments that don't hit his personal hot buttons. Thus, the high probability he'll make errors like this.......I don't see him as a person who thoughtfully responds to his many "followers," especially Duggar-related ones. 

Not saying that he doesn't go along with the sentiment behind that "like." Just saying I don't think he's dumb enough to have deliberately responded in that way at this point. (and i do think he's pretty dumb....just not that dumb....)

(of course his finding a more famous or richer guy willing to be his broski.... slim....so there's that)

I think Jer's banking on Kanye to fill that particular void.

This is one of those perfectly-worded sentences that makes no sense anywhere but the thread in which it's written, and is so spot-on that the only remedy is to laugh out loud. 🙂

Apart from any all the other reasons listed, looking forward to the downfall of another person, even if it is your Duggar in laws, isn’t showing a very Christian outlook 

But then not a lot that that RFP has shown us lately exudes much in the way of love and compassion or Christ like living 

He's living in a material world and he's a material boy.

I don't think Jer will last a minute as a fundie minister. 

I used to work with someone who was a Pentecostal pastor. This guy was super-duper conservative on social issues. Anti-abortion, anti-gay, against women taking leadership roles. However he described the duties of being a minister and this is NOT Jer's wheelhouse. There are a lot of issues brewing beneath the surface of fundie families, and ministers/pastors have to address those issues. Alcoholism, divorce, drug addiction, domestic violence, run-ins with the law. It's a lot of work. You need compassion and empathy for the people in your congregation. 

You also need realism. My friend said that he had people in his congregation who got their ultra-sound and the baby had severe disabilities. He said in those difficult cases his advice was to "follow God's heart." He didn't feel as if it was his place to tell the parents what to do. He said many terminated the pregnancy, which went against his beliefs, but he couldn't judge. 

Jer's toolbox doesn't seem anywhere deep enough for this sort of work. There just doesn't seem to be much going on upstairs.

I’ve heard hundreds of preacher’s sermons in my six decades on earth.  I’ve heard some of the very best preachers, some of the worst and everything in between.  I can sincerely say, with all honesty, that Jeremy is THE WORST I’ve ever heard.  It’s unbelievable that no one has cared enough to guide him away from the pulpit and strongly suggest that he change his career goals.  Most pastors feel like they are “called to preach the Gospel” or in other words, led by God to preach.  You will never convince me that Jeremy has felt that calling.  Jeremy is doomed as a preacher, unless God works a miracle, because the guy is horrible at speaking and preaching.

Jeremy better pray that there isn't a new big Duggar scandal. If they lose the show and the family falls from grace, I bet his new BFFs will drop him like a hot potato.

The attention and special treatment is getting is all because he's on a TV show and semi-famous. Take that away and he's just a regular nobody.

A lot of people who were low-maintenance as babies don't necessarily age that way. The only time I've ever been low-maintenance was a baby/toddler.

Yeah, I think that is one of the fatal flaws in his disdain for his in-laws. They are ignorant and awful, but he still tied himself to them and their media circus. He can try to distance himself all he wants, but that will not necessarily protect him if they get enveloped in scandal. He is still inextricably tied to them and their little fiefdom. And depending on exactly what is unfolding in Arkansas, all of his little LA "friends" and seminary sponsors might very well flee for the hills if things escalate.

Good luck finding a free place to live and restaurants to mooch off or and free pocket squares then, JereMe.

My daughter was, far and away, the easiest, sunniest-natured of my three. She lived to please and to be a peacemaker. Somewhere along the line, probably during college, she morphed into Mr. Jyn's prickly twin. My son-in-law often tells me that we married the same person. He's far better than I am at letting things roll right off his back, though and is still crazy about her after some 12 or 13 years together.

I really hope that the Duggars, et al, will end up with a share of difficult babies, though, because those seem more apt, in general, to have minds of their own. Well, as long as they don't try to beat or blanket-train those tendencies out of them...but it does seem as though this generation of parents is at least marginally less punitive. Except for maybe Dreck.
