You tend to KNOW things about your best friend. Like how not to turn everything into a joke (Jill!) as you had to tell Big D not to do. He might have also known you would never be allowed to be a real missionary because you went to the College of Michelle rather than somewhere that actually taught useful academic things. The best I can say about your familiarity with each other is common religion and you knew each others names. I don't see a friendship. But whatever, I don't have to wake up next to either one of you. 9 Link to comment

I expected it to be something about how Derick was worth the wait to her, which is gag-inducing, but believable because she's a stage 5 clinger and sat around reading that Prince Charming book. However, it is so much worse! I hate when girls like her get all preachy, about how it's worth the wait for everyone else. Really, Jill? As a 29-year-old who was about to be engaged a few years ago, only to have it called off abruptly, that doesn't sit well with me. I don't need All Knowledgeable Jill giving me any advice on "waiting!!!" i have a teenage cousin who is like that, too. She is so desperate that she latches onto just any guy who wants a serious relationship, and when one breaks up with her, she moves on to the next one in two seconds. Then, when she has a boyfriend again, she'll say something like, "single ladies...trust me, I've waited, but God will bring you someone when you are ready." I find it hard to hold back on the snark and point out that God has brought her many, MANY boyfriends who weren't quite enamored with her little self! ? I personally have waited a long time to be in a good relationship like I'm in now, but that's just my journey. I'm not going to pretend that God sees me as so super special that He sent me a great guy at the age of 28, so everyone else should look forward to that age or some BS like that. Just live your life, people! I feel like your cousin should at least be married before bragging, lol 3 Link to comment

BitterApple June 22, 2017 Share June 22, 2017 4 hours ago, saylubee said: I can see two sides to that. I did not want my MIL in the room when I was giving birth. We lived close enough to the hospital that she stayed there until birth was imminent. My mom stayed by my side until I started having complications and had to be rushed for an emergency c-section. I don't know if I eventually would have kicked my mom out of the room too once things really got going. But if Jilly is going to have everyone at the birth anyways why can't Miss Cathy be there. Hopefully this means Jill is having a hospital birth with fewer attendees. Or that it was Miss Cathy's decision to hold back due to her health issues. I can as well. Sure it would be nice for Jill to invite Cathy, but we don't know how close they are or how comfortable Jill is with her mother-in-law looking at her exposed lady bits. And in defense of Michelle, pregnancy and birthing is that woman's bread and butter. I'd probably take her over anyone else. 6 Link to comment

This is one of the ways we know that the Duggarlings are simply stupid, I think. In that clusterfuck of a family, anybody who had an actual brain would have developed into George Carlin or Tina Fey by age four, just to survive the cognitive dissonance without going completely insane. (and then would have fairly quickly absconded, of course). ... But the Duggarlings are just not bright. ... Another reason why they really can't get much past their parents' and Gothards' absurd and horrifying "teachings," of course. I really do feel sorry for them, because they can't help being dumb, and I'm sure that the stupidity is a big factor in what keeps them utterly trapped in one of the most asinine mindsets ever invented -- and repeatedly behaving idiotically because of that. But I suppose they may mind it all less because of their dimness as well. Edited June 22, 2017 by Churchhoney 13 Link to comment

Ocean Chick June 23, 2017 Share June 23, 2017 There's an Olive Garden in Vallejo, Sew Sumi. And no, it's not healthy. A typical entree can run to 1,500 calories, not counting the salad (lettuce, onions, a couple of tomatoes, black olives and croutons with Italian dressing) and the ever deadly addictive bread sticks. And lots of sodium. But what do Duggars care about high sodium and/or fat? God's taking care of their health, because God loves them. He doesn't love you, you heathen. Heh. 3 Link to comment
