It struck me as odd for a Duggar to be saying that. I guess JB and Michelle brought over some slang from when they were young and normal. 7 Link to comment

Misslindsey October 3, 2017 Share October 3, 2017 I am sure this has already been discussed, but were there any more details of the boy (was his name Tyler?) who Jessa and Ben took shopping with them? She said he was her cousin and that Michelle and Jim Bob have guardianship? Everyone here is way more on the ball with all things Duggar than I am. Is he on Michelle's or Jim Bob's side of the family. I am sure the kid's circumstances were less than ideal to end up living with the Duggars, but I feel sorry for him if he ends up Duggar-ized. 2 Link to comment
Spencer Hastings October 3, 2017 Share October 3, 2017 (edited) Joy said that she and Austin wanted to do camping because it's fun...but in the same sentence said she would only do it with him and that she'd never done it. How did she know it was fun? Because Austin thinks it's fun? When I was in college, my school did a ten mile hike. You did the hike, had a BBQ, and hopped on the air conditioned shuttle back to school. This guy that I had my eye on decided to walk the ten miles back and asked my 200 pound, stubby body if I wanted to walk with him. I put on my sweetest countenance and said SURE (TOTALLY)! His idea of fun was my idea of fun, even if it meant stopping every thirty minutes to find my inhaler. It was NOT fun, it was 102 degrees, and I bled through my super cool pink Converse shoes. Speaking of blood, when he got the idea to donate, my anemic self sat right there next to him ready for a needle in my arm. Joy and Austin remind me SO much of this scenario. I was 18, he was my first "love". He wasn't pushy by any means but I wanted to impress him so badly! Thankfully, I did NOT marry him and I lived to tell this story. I keep reminding myself that Joy is a girl who wants to impress her first crush and I feel better about her need to ask "how high" when he says "jump." That's normal for a crush. Until I realize that she has literally married her first crush. Edited October 3, 2017 by Spencer Hastings 24 Link to comment

Marshmallow Mollie October 3, 2017 Share October 3, 2017 I love Kendra. She seems so genuine. That wasn't poison ivy, it was Virginia creeper. I am truly surprised Austin didn't know that. "Leaves of three, leave them be." Virginia creeper looks just like poison ivy (so I will give Joy a pass) but it has 5 leaves. I am on Team Jana is doing what she wants (within reason), so it struck me when she said it's hard that another girl is leaving. 5 Link to comment

He is Michelle's sister's grandchild. Michelle's sister had custody due to some bad family circumstances involving his parents (drug use, I think), but she had a stroke and could no longer care for him. Michelle and Jim-Bob stepped up and took custody of him which I would usually consider to be a wonderful act of kindness and charity; but, considering their messed-up family dynamics, may not be a great thing for Tyler. 10 Link to comment
Barb23 October 3, 2017 Share October 3, 2017 If I was Austin I'm not so sure I could work on the house with Joy. Her constant "Be careful Babe" or "watch it Babe" with teeth clenched would get on my nerves rather quickly. Hoping it was done for drama for the show. And Austin only had one Duggar working with him that day? At that rate, it will take forever to get done. Was anyone else bothered by Joy's voice? Hard to explain & I think we discussed it before - it sounds almost like a lisp, like she's babying herself down now that she found a man. I don't think she talked that way a few years ago. I still have Jill & Jessa's weddings on my VCR. I'll have to check out how she talked then. 7 Link to comment

TeaTV October 4, 2017 Share October 4, 2017 The best part of the episode was when I finally got three stars on Level 22 of the bubble shooter game I was playing while I watched (mostly) listened to this nothing burger of an episode. Kendra seems to have the nervous giggle under control, Jill didn't share her fears of living in DA, and Joy was somewhat decisive--all plusses. Jessa's inability to stop making Captain Obvious statements as well as giving parenting and child rearing advice (see: MEEEchelle/the apple doesn't fall far) and Jana expressing sorrow about losing another sibling can be added to the CO drinking game as negatives. 9 Link to comment

Jessa henpecks Ben. She shouldn’t be doing that any more than he should be expecting her to submit. I think that is what the poster meant by the aisle 4 comment.

Gemma Violet October 4, 2017 Share October 4, 2017 Ben was right about the stick horses being dirty and germ-laden. It's not like the heads were plastic and could be sanitized.

flyingdi October 4, 2017 Share October 4, 2017 (edited) I felt sorry for Ben in the shopping segment. Despite his beliefs, Ben seems like a nice easygoing guy. Jessa should have least considered his arguments. She didnt. She doesn't realize she's lucky to have a guy who doesn't insist he's in charge given their religion. Poor Ben already can't breathe in that house! He doesn't need bugs too. Ben doesn't exactly hide that he's a health nut. Edited October 4, 2017 by flyingdi 7 Link to comment
TeaTV October 4, 2017 Share October 4, 2017 I’m also a germaphobe but I didn’t see a problem with the stick horses. Of course I would either spray them with disinfectant and wipe them down or soak and/or rinse them in the tub with soap and let them air dry. Admittedly, I was half watching/half listening so I’m not sure if they’d be ruined plus I wasn’t there to get a good look at them and I do live in Arizona where stuff drys fast and thoroughly.

floridamom October 4, 2017 Share October 4, 2017 Jessa could use some lessons in being a 'health nut" from Ben if you ask me. Did I notice that the paint was peeling off of those stick horses? I think I saw that. That's a no no for me. Actually, I thought Ben was right. Oh, WAIT.....how could be have missed them all admit that JOY has the stinkiest FEET? When her brothers were asked 'who has the worst'...they said JOY without hesitation and Austin said that she did, too. I'm amazed that those two, who couldn't even hold hands until engagement, knew about Joy's dirty, smelly feet? Those awful dirty shoes she wears with no socks don't help. A shower every night would help out in that area. I don't want to think about the sheet over her mattress in her bed. Also, those bedrooms were a filthy mess. I'm sure that house smells badly too. I don't want to think about the smell from the upholstered furniture downstairs with all those sweaty, dirty kids laying all over them for years....not to mention Spurgie's slobber and snot that Jessa so proudly told us about. 12 Link to comment
HahYallDoin October 4, 2017 Share October 4, 2017 (edited) I cannot stand hearing Joy parrot EVERY. DAMN. THING. AUSTIN. SAYS. * Yeah, we can fit 6 hammocks over here. * Uh huh, 2 here, 2 there, 2 there. * It's time to set up camp, y'all. * Unload the trucks, y'all. * The water was cold, y'all STOP! I don't know how Austin can tolerate it. Not to mention, as someone upthread said, the constant 'be careful, babe.' Joy's hygiene has not evolved, I'm afraid, from her younger years. Stinky feet, rats nest hair, filthy shoes and not the least bit embarrassed by it. I don't mean to gross you out but this chick is in charge of her baby's personal care and it's important to keep things fully clean down below. I can just imagine her not being thorough and the baby suffering on account of it. Joy didn't pack socks for herself on the camping trip and froze DESPITE her giving us the weather forecast prior to departure. Soon she'll be responsible for the care and well being of a child. She is no more ready than I am to perform open heart surgery. Ugh! Edited October 4, 2017 by HahYallDoin Punctuation error 18 Link to comment
