S07:E21 The Assanti Brothers LIVE CHAT

[Ivylady]

Are they on well water? If so, someone should lace it with Prozac, Paxil, and Xanax. They're all nuts. 

[Guest]

LOL at that weak-ass punch Justin grazed his father with.

Frankly, I wouldn't have stopped at one. 

[Kid]

The father is as bad as Steven!!

I was very careful with my wording lol

[DC Gal in VA]

Why is the dad yelling at Justin like a crazy man for what he said to that asshole Steven? And did he just hit him!? WTF!?

[Julyolo]

Dad wants to "get them back together as a family AGAIN". When were they ever together as a family?

[Callaphera]

Me watching that car scene:

[Pepper Mostly]

Dad. They DON'T CARE ABOUT EACH OTHER. Stop trying to make brotherly love happen. 

[Brooklynista]

Yoooo!!! Who punches someone while their going 70mph on the highway???

Not that you should punch people...

I was on the edge of my seat! 

And now here we are at the riveting "we've been on the road for 45 minutes--I have to stop and rest. All I want to do is get to the hotel and eat, and go to bed". Yes, I wrote it.

I'll give him credit; he hasn't whined and/or melted down as much as most of them do.

Steven is back to his old self again. 

Expand  

I'm shocked.

SHOCKED.

And why does the dad care if the boys get along or not?  They're probably happier and healthier apart from each other.  How dare he force Justin to pretend to be nice to his abuser.  

[FormeryHeavyJ]

I shudder to think what my Dad would have done to me if I punched him like that.  He was a mountain of a man and paid for college in the Navy.  I think he was in charge of pulling up the anchor....by hand.

[AVM]

Good evening everyone , The Assanti Brothers oh brother here we go again. Whose on next week Penny ?

[OoogleEyes]

Oh, Dad you're dreaming if you think those two will ever get along. 

[cmpbl]

They do not need each other. Steven is an a**hole who tortured Justin.

[navine]

"one huge gigantic disaster" ----yep, Dad"s got that right!

Right?? They will always be the way they are! 

[MsVixen]

Dad is using the word, torture, pretty easily.  What kind of "Torture", Asshat?  It must have been pretty serious and Dad needs to acknowledge that!

They all need at least a daily beating.

oh, noes.   We are having grapes tomorrow.  I was supposed to have some today at lunch, but....      Have never bought sugar free jam, but I do have marmalade and fig preserves to sabotage my eating habit.

Expand  

I almost bought grapes the other day but I managed to talk myself out of it.

(Actually they just didn't look that great. They also had strawberries on sale and they looked good at first glance, but every package I picked up had grey fuzzy mold hiding somewhere to I gave up after four or five packages.)

[Azubah]

Why does Dad favor Steven? This family is beyond human comprehension.

Trying to remember from first Assanti episode..... didn't mommy just leave them all flat a while back?  While that's usually something I could never understand, this would be an exception, of course.

This show should give you lots of practice praying....or at least saying “oh dear God”. No offense meant

Expand  

None taken. Though my Catholic roots sometimes take over the Mormon conversion and I say, "Jesus, Mary, &  Joseph." A lot.

[Brooklynista]

Ok let me play Devil's Advocate here, why would Justin need to holler into the phone that he wasn't going to visit Steven?? Just don't go see him.

"I watch My 600 Lb Life on TLC while wearing my sweat pants with my bare feet up on my computer desk. I almost always flirt with the idea of ordering some KFC during the show - popcorn chicken, naturally! It makes for easy eating while trying to type on the forums. I just leave a damp, folded paper towel next to my keyboard to swipe the majority of the grease and gravy off before I pound those keys!" #myTLClife

[ELFairy]

All 3 Assantis should probably live separately. They make each other crazy.  Make a run for it Justin!  You don’t need them.

[String Theory]

Hi Pounders - I don't know if I really want to watch the total waste of skin - Steven, but then I thought "who better would I want to watch this with" so here I am.

My eating habit tonight is light because its so flipping hot here (89) had six pieces of ahi tuna sushi roll and a glacier Gatorade.  Too hot to eat.....

Guilt? The mom probably tortured Steven who then transferred it to Justin

[DEG9]

my mother had the fastest backhand in the country. If I'd hit her, I would not have known I was down until I woke up. 

Any questions about how those brothers got to be the way they are should have no questions after this.

No drama in peace. I want them to share a studio.

[cmpbl]

Yeah um Justin wants to rest. lol

[ams1001]

I know he's an ass but dad could at least say hello before he starts in on him.

[Guest]

IS HE PEEING ON THE FLOOR NOW?!

Did he not have any Tupperware containers?!

[88Keys]

Dad thinks they need to stop screaming at each other, yet he screams at both of them.

[Julyolo]

Dad's got 2 pics in the dictionary:

Codependent

Enabler

[Azubah]

Oh, he's wasted.

[Ivylady]

Are those pee pads on the floor? Is he marking his territory? 🤢

Every high school kid in the greater Providence area must be in there jacking inventory every day. Who's going to chase them? Justin? Hahahahahaha, I kill me. 

Expand  

Do today’s kids care about that crap? Mostly they want phone stuff. A shopkeeper once told me he was nostalgic for when kids stole baseball cards back when kids cared about baseball.

[Granny58]

I wonder if Steve is mental because dad is a jerk.

[Callaphera]

"What's all this shit on the floor?"
"Decorations. Don't worry about it."

This is what I'm going to say the next time a dust bunny goes across the floor like tumbleweed and it was my turn to sweep.

DON'T MESS WITH THE TUPPERWARE!!!!  😍

[Snarkastikate]

Dad had to get over the dream he seems to have that his sons will ever  be able to tolerate each other for one second, or that they will ever have a date, much less than get married LOL.   

[QuinnInND]

Steven is so high. 

[Callaphera]

Dude is hiiiiiigh as hell.

[CrazyInAlabama]

The only point of this hideously long recap is for people who never watched parts 1-3, and those people aren't watching this either.   The only scene I'm hoping for is the golf cart "fall".

If I remember correctly Mommy left all of them when the boys were little, and then both boys went to live with her for a while.   Justin claims Steven ate all of the food, and tortured him while Mom was out partying all of the time.     Then they moved back with Dad, and have remained there until the Houston trip.   

I love watching Cupcake, and hope she's OK.    I hate when bad people have nice pets like her, she, deserves better.
