squashy baby spurgeon is the real breakout star of the show. Every week, we wake up early on Wednesday morning and say a little prayer to whatever bloodthirsty pagan god we're praying to this time that somehow, some way, the "Jill and Jessa: Counting On A Trainwreck" show did not air the previous evening. Consider our prayers unanswered yet again.
My youngest brother used to say that he would have 9 kids, and they'd all live upstairs at our parents' house so that my mom could take care of them for him while he watched TV and played the guitar...but his dreams didn't run to a Camaro!
That didn't quite work out for him, though - he's 35 now, has no kids, and to the best of my knowledge, isn't even dating anyone at the moment, although, to be fair, he's finishing his Comp Sci degree, and the few girls in his department are so much younger than he is that they make him feel ancient.
Interestingly, "She ( Minnie ) graduated from Ward-Belmont College (now Belmont University), at the time Nashville's most prestigious school for young ladies, where her major was theater studies and dance which was a particular interest. After graduating, she taught dance for the next few years." And . . ."She was friends with performers outside the country genre, including Dean Martin (she appeared on an episode of The Dean Martin Show), and Paul Reubens (Pee-wee Herman)."I've always thought that a lot of her public persona was shtick . . . ; that she was more in on the joke than she let-on.
Okay, I've been torturing myself by reading these pieces for a while (bless you Snipy). Where does all the money come from? Has anyone ever seen any of these people actually work at a "job"? Did I miss something or should I just assume these are your garden variety Palin-style grifters? Haha, rhetorical question. "Squashy baby"...LOL
🙄 As was pointed out to me the other day, in a very comforting way, at least we're not Mississippi.
The worst part of it is that it will probably pass. Even though these idjits know that it's 1) a waste of time 2) a waste of money & 3) a ploy to get the rabid mouth breathers out in full force in November to Make America Great Again (tm).
Hello Amy. As it happens I am one of the resident Christians on teh Wonkette. I am an ex-conservative evangelical and still speak some of the language, so I will try.
1) Wonkette is a snark and satire site. Complaining about snark on a snark site makes you look unobservant, judgemental, selfish, and not very bright. To call out to one of our current features, it's like a vegetarian going to a steakhouse and throwing a conniption fit because they don't like the menu. None of these are good ways to Win Friends and Influence People, and all of them are a BAD WITNESS! BAD! NO BISCUIT!
2) You are also plenty judgemental, while complaining about judgementalism. Again ... not a good look, and won't win people to your way of thinking. People have very well functioning BS meters around here.
3) What's really being snarked is how highly controlled, restricted, and low-information the parents of these women have kept them (as opposed to how the men get to live) and how they're being sold off for buckets of sweet sweet tv money that someone else gets to control. This particular type of selling-off always makes me want to flip tables, a la Jesus in the Temple. The waste of potential of these beautiful children of God makes me want to cry.
4) Again, also, too, this is snark and satire site, we blow off a lot of steam here against hypocrisy.
5) I appreciate that you managed to "use your words" after a very terse couple of initial posts, but you need to "use your words" earlier. Really, it seems to me like you were either bored or frustrated by something else and decided to try to letting off some steam/making yourself feel better by finding some "liberals" to whack by trying some "concern trolling", and gin up a CROWN OF INTERNET MARTYRDOM and some "popularity" in your circles for yourself if someone bit. That may make you temporarily feel good but it really doesn't accomplish anything and you will be looking for your next drama-endorphin fix soon.
6) I am always up for exposing hypocrisy, abuse, criminal behavior, etc. etc. in those who are wrapping themselves in religion for personal advancement and profit. I am especially interested in seeing this happen with those wrapping themselves in Christianity (especially the Dominionist/Christianist variations ... some of which get pretty heretical IMO). It gets in the way of the Gospel. Jesus himself told us that there would be false prophets, and how to read the signs.
If you're up for that, we're here, although there are a lot of other less snarky sites. We know it's not "popular" and get a lot of pushback. But we try to keep it true.
Why do you keep saying "squashy baby"? It's not nice. The babies are innocent and some what cute. Anna is stupid staying with Mr. Nasty Josh. So she really shouldn't be pushing marriage on the girls. Her marriage is nothing to look up to.
Is this for real?

Great wasn't it
Is she into anal?

Umm a comp sci majoring single brother?? I'm always on the look out for new ex boyfriends!!

When it comes to this particular group of morons yep, it's great
I remember my mom telling me that she made her own hats. When people started criticizing her for being "cheap" she started putting tags on them.

My apologies for that! I thought I saw some of the "code words" in your history.

He just went in 'the front door'.
Go ahead and make fun but Ted Cruz masturdebates to this shit.
Kinda sad, pretending they have a say in who Daddy Duggar will choose as their husband.
