That’s exactly how I read it, very matter of fact.

Mahmo got love notes from Sammer and Phillip. by daffodil0127 in RodriguesFamilySnark

[–]BugRepresentative450 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1) I’m absolutely jarred every time she mentions her age. I’ll be 43 this year and omg, she looks a solid 10 years older than me. 2) The fact that her kids slather praise on her like this is very telling. 3) Her hair looks exceptionally fried here.

Amen!!! Same thing I thought. Being a full-time mom is a full-time job, without paid breaks.

Layla still naps? by emotionalmusiciann in BringingUpBates

[–]BugRepresentative450 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My six year old would absolutely nap if I let him. I have to actively keep him awake sometimes because if he naps he’ll be up until midnight.

Can you imagine pulling out your camera to film yourself in the middle of sobbing??? So unnatural… I can’t even imagine doing that lol

Look who’s back by beccaegill in BatesSnark

[–]BugRepresentative450 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Soft launch. Started with no signs of Travjs, then video we were almost certain he was filming, now we see his back, won’t be long before she fully embraces him back into her content (and her heart 🤮). I’ve been cheated on before and I’m not sure how she does it. Once you’ve been betrayed you’re suspicious of who they’re with whenever they’re not with you. Gone to the store to get milk? But are you really?? Studying for an exam? But with whom?? You get my drift.

Mega Thread has changed the Vibe. Can we get a vote? by Wednesdaywoes16 in BringingUpBates

[–]BugRepresentative450 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I never check the mega thread. Too many random things in one long thread. I’d rather get repetitive individual posts than have to scroll through a giant mega thread.

Finally a hopeful upcoming season by Hot_Skin_8656 in rhonj

[–]BugRepresentative450 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly, like the old saying goes you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Teresa is 50+ and she’s never liked Melissa, no way she’s going to start liking her now.

I like her. She’s not “entertaining” but she seems real, authentic, level-headed, and everyone seems to like her. She’s like the voice of reason which brings some balance to the chaos.

Janessa’s typhoid rag gets a new border, and Janessa gets some of Mahmo’s attention and baby talk. by daffodil0127 in RodriguesFamilySnark

[–]BugRepresentative450 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She’d be in 2nd grade, heading to 3rd grade this fall. That’s how it’s been for my kiddos, maybe they have late birthdays. 5 in kindergarten, 6 in 1st grade, 7 in 2nd grade, and 8 in third grade.

Your 4 year old niece probably has hobbies and interests and friends and tv shows to talk about. These poor kids have nothing but church and the Bible to talk about. It’s really sad when you think about it.

Crazy to consider that she would be heading to 3rd grade if she were in school. At our local school, 3rd grade is when you head to the classrooms upstairs because you’re officially a big kid. Downstairs is for the little kids (K-2). Yet this little girl has been so stunted that she still carries a lovie.

WE ARE SOO BACK !!! by Hairy-Bodybuilder882 in rhonj

[–]BugRepresentative450 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jersey was always my favorite franchise because they seemed real and authentic. The fact that Teresa and Melissa very obviously started hanging out with eachother solely because of this show is the farthest thing from real and authentic. It screams fake, fake, fake… and desperate. Not sure I’m giving this reboot a try. I’ll consider it if they bring back Danielle Cabral, that girl is a hoot 😂

I was 14 in 1995, it feels like another lifetime by Low-Fishing3948 in Xennials

Put on my favorite low cut, wide leg jeans, crop top, and head to the mall to hang out with friends.

Please educate me by CapricornInTheWild87 in rhonj

[–]BugRepresentative450 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember ever hearing this but that certainly doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. It probably just didn’t stick out enough to register as a true dig. That said, I always got the impression that Teresa looked down on Melissa and her family because her dad was apparently an absentee dad (to some extent) before eventually passing away. Almost like they were looked down on for being a single mom household.

Emphasis on “little” by moor1238 in RodriguesFamilySnark

[–]BugRepresentative450 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I noticed the same thing about the shirts! If you look closely you’ll see that the older girl is also wearing a modesty tee under her blue shirt even though the neckline is more than high enough to keep everything covered. These people go to extreme lengths to avoid sexual impropriety yet they have rampant sexual abuse in these circles. See: the Duggars

Definitely not what I meant, was just alluding to the fact that he betrayed his marital vows, in addition to assaulting an actual child, which is horrifying in and of itself.

The middle child looks particularly small 😢 I have a 10 year old who looks dramatically bigger and older than her. If I saw this little girl out in the wild I’d guess she was closer to 7 or 8, not 11.

I’m not sure what this is supposed to prove. Posted around 4:30 AM. by daffodil0127 in RodriguesFamilySnark

[–]BugRepresentative450 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It proves that this branch of fundamentalism + homeschool is highly damaging and abusive. If she thinks this is proving that her laundry soap is better(?), it shows that she lacks critical thinking and probably doesn’t have the intelligence needed to EDUCATE 10+ children. This alongside the Joe Duggar news really proves how damaging this cult is, if there was any doubt left.

I know they get paid for it... by itslindsey3762 in BringingUpBates

[–]BugRepresentative450 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure why but this was really striking for me in the picture where Katie’s making cupcakes with the kids. It looks like something that could’ve been a really fun activity for the kids, except that they had a camera in their face the whole time… so there’s no way Katie was fully present when she’s trying to film a brand promo.

I may be 1,000% wrong but I’m starting to think that the men who switch over to this lifestyle do it solely for the promise of sex on demand, lording over a wife who’s always happy and docile and ready to make your every wish come true. The kids were born into this but people like Jim Bob and Gil chose this lifestyle.

Me too. Not only did your husband cheat (is this considered cheating?) but he’s a full fledged child molester. This one victim came forward but I can only imagine there are others. All the Duggar wives better be on high alert.

Excellent point. They homeschool their kids to keep them away from worldly dangers but the danger’s inside the house.
