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.

Not so sure you are 100% right about that.  The grandpa of a friend of mine used to watch and would exclaim to his wife who was doing dishes in the kitchen "Hurry and get in here - the n*gg*r is dancing"    Sad but true

Yeah, they ultimately got a black guy to, wait for it, tap dance. Arthur Duncan.

To be fair, it wasn't just a Welk thing, of course, Duncan was one of very very very few African-Americans who were tv regulars in the early decades.

What usually becomes of graduates of MacArthur's Masters program?  

Well, they're all training to be pastors. And over the past couple decades, more conservative-Protestant churches, including Baptist churches, have developed a fondness for Calvinists. I've heard of pretty many Master's Seminary grads being head pastors or associate pastors at churches big and small, all around the country. The number of churches generally is falling, though, and there's so much concentration into huge churches that it's easy to imagine that the number of jobs like that is slowly drying up. .

Jer's being a particularly crummy preacher and his preference for being in some big rich city, and preferably a show-biz capital, will be barriers for him, though. I can see him getting offers from churches the size of the Laredo church....and in less-hotshot cities....And he won't want those! 

I still think he'll try for some suck-up-in-chief job for somebody who actually has a big big-city pastor job. or for some MS grad who leads a nonprofit or some such. Not clear he'll find one of those, though. He won't be the only guy looking. And some of those people won't be interested in a person with his meh skill set, I expect.

I think Jinger and the girls will be the big draw to any church he gets.  More people coming to stare at a Dugger and the possibility other Duggers might accompany them to church.

Fill up those seats and pass the collection basket!

Somewhere on the website there is or used to be a page listing the churches with a MacArthur trained pastor.  I was shocked to find one less than 10 miles from me.

And I'd still say that his best bet is to go from this degree straight into a PhD program in Theology or Biblical Studies, and then get a job at a Christian college or seminary program somewhere. That would feed his ego, provide a moderate but relatively stable income for his family, and give him the time and flexibility to supplement that with speaking engagements and reality TV filming. His current grad program should be giving him the fundamentals he needs for that career, and honestly, it fits his pretentiousness more than a career as a pastor. 

The main negative, of course, is that a PhD does require some - what is the technical term we're all trying to think of? Oh, right. Effort. And work. And I'm guessing that his committee will not approve of his potential dissertation topics, like, The Spiritual Values of Brand Shoes; How to Find The Gospel of Matthew in a Gourmet Burger; What Paul's Letters to the Corinthians Tell Us About Posting Pictures on Instagram and How to Frame Them Properly, but we all have our crosses to bear.

That would be the only reason for such a picture. 

Honestly, I am generally so oblivious to footwear that that didn't even enter my mind! LOL. The only thing that caught my eye in the photo was the reflection in the puddle, but it was such a boring reflection on a stretch of blacktop/sidewalk which was broken up, but not in any sort of particularly picturesque way, that I couldn't think of any reason at all for the picture.

Yes, that picture simply sucked. Of all the random bad images with which to sully your bandwidth, it was one of the randomest and worst. Unless you have the right kind of shoe fetish, I suppose.

Why did they miss the chance to brand themself as the godly, yet modern life family? Two young people and their two cute girls, living in LA, but still connected to their faith and God? And that would come more natural to them than burgers, pocket squares and shoes.

I think the Roloff's have tried to be the modern, godly family without a lot of success.  I will say that Jeremy V definitely has more ambition than Jer R.

I believe this is a World War II propaganda poster to be careful about spies.  Not sure why Jeremy is posting it tho.

Yeah it is a WWII propaganda poster. I'm not sure that Jeremy is aware of that. 😂

Exactly. 🙂

I'd managed to repress the memory of stirrup pants...

I loved my stirrup pants! I had one wonderful pair that my mom had held onto since the Dick van Dyke show days when Mary Tyler Moore rocked them,  just in case they ever came back in fashion. And I wore the heck out of them when they came back in vogue for a hot minute. I think I may even still have them somewhere. If I ever get back down to that size, I may dig them back out whether or not they are in style. They made things to last back then!

I remember a pair of black stirrup pants I had. They had a seam going down the front. I hated them. When I sat down, they'd tug at the back of the waist and after wearing them all day, the knees would bag. I was never and still aren't, a fan of turtle necks paired with v-necks. Reminded me too much of the guys in Lost in Space.

Jinger seemed to rock her wardrobe in the past few years. Maybe she doesn't have enough comfy casual clothes to rock the tired-new-mom 'style'. Too bad too, because many have adopted that trend during the pandemic. Yay!

What a spooky post. Has Jeremy gone tinfoil hat?

Jeremy being Jeremy, it wouldn't surprise me if he just saw this and posted it randomly because it struck him funny or something. I can imagine him not even realizing that a main reaction it would spark would be "WHY? WTF?" Although I can also imagine him thinking -- "Wow! This will provoke a lot of  questions! Great for my social-media profile!" Despite his apparent mad focus on becoming famous and prominent, his actually activities in that vein seem pretty random to me.

Sturrup pants were great with boots! 

I had stirrup pants in every color. I wore them with tunic length sweaters and my ballet flats. Then one day on Oprah, a stylist was on and brought a young lady on stage wearing stirrup pants, sweater and ballet flats. She said NEVER wear stirrup pants with anything except boots. They were made for boots. I didn’t own boots and never wore stirrup pants again!

I was OBSESSED with stirrup pants.. anything that became trendy I wanted.  I had every color.  I ended up either wearing them til they wore out or my mom gave them away.. My purple ones were my favorites.. geek..lol

Mom's ones that I inherited were grey, also with a seam down the front. Whatever I did, my legs pretty much looked like Mary Tyler Moore. And I was no dancer! They were just the most flattering legwear I ever had. I figure they were probably made sometime in the early 60's, worn off and on for a few years (maybe 3 or 4?), and put away until I unearthed them around  1998 or so. I'd lost some weight, so they fit me perfectly, no sagging, no bagging, but a year or so later, I gained my weight back, and they were not quite so popular anyway, so I put them away again.
