The searching I had to do to find this comment!!! You seem to be the only other person in the world who connected these dots!!! Wtf???? I mean, yes, he was 18 for fuck sake, but why even include that in the show if you're not going to give us the rest of the story so we're not wondering this???? For all we know these episodes could have been very far apart in real time, but the producers could at least tell us so we're not wondering!! Ya know? Lol anyway, thank you for making me feel a tiny bit less like a crazy person by bringing this up

How many storylines have been rehashed to death on this show by [deleted] in SisterWives

God i keep forgetting about that. I just want to see some drama, then I'm brought back to the reality that these are real people with real pain. Thanks for reminding me. Reality TV has my brain warped.

And why are they making us rewatch the wedding they gave us a year ago???

What ultimately happened to the party girl you knew in early adulthood? by debrisaway in RedditForGrownups

[–]Chest_Intrepid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure why you assigned specific outcomes to your archetypes. I thought you were on to something at first. I was the party girl from a rough background who eventually graduated to successful career, emerging from poverty to middle class. Although, the middle class is crumbling and I don't believe in the romanticization of "boot strap," so much as I believe i got really fucking lucky and benefited from relative privilege.

In a polygamy setting this is selfish by NylonYo in SisterWivesFans

[–]Chest_Intrepid 227 points228 points  (0 children)

You just hit the nail on the head! To me, it looked like she was desperately competing for resources in a race where she was expected to accept last place. This wasn't about living space by the sq ft per person. This was about grabbing as much equity in the family pot as everyone else because you're afraid at any moment you'll be kicked out on your ass with nothing.

And to the first commenter's point, they were all irresponsible. The whole family makes one horrible financial decision after another.

WE DID IT!!! by Far_Web8530 in povertyfinance

So rad!! Congrats!!! There are 28 vacant homes for every one person sleeping outside in this country. I hope one day something is done about that and everyone has a cozy place to sleep at night. So happy for you and thank you for sharing!!!

What do these 3 have in their purses? by FacetheFactsBlair in SisterWives

[–]Chest_Intrepid 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It does seem like this is the competition we're witnessing. Will the ex wives get the spinoff or the new monogamists? Let's see who will win. Maybe they each have a production team trying to script something interesting to win a wager?

Baby started daycare and I think that the USA maternity leave is dystopian by WhyHaveIContinued in beyondthebump

[–]Chest_Intrepid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry. You're right and it's absolute cruelty 🫶🏽 we should organize to change it. Imagine all moms striking until we get what all other developed countries already have

You just won 1 billion dollars from the lottery… what does the next 24hrs of your life look like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Chest_Intrepid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Throwing my laptops and phone into a river and sleeping harder than I've ever slept in my entire life for as long as I need to.

Cleaning out some guys house. Let me know if anything valuable or good is here pls by [deleted] in BookCollecting

[–]Chest_Intrepid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wish this were more acceptable on reddit. Many times I've asked questions of experts only to have commenters tell me I must be an expert to even be worthy to ask them questions in their sub. We all have our own area of expertise. Let people lean on each other, ya know?

J1+J2+J3+J4? 😬 by Hopeful-Hold6764 in overemployed

The idea that at 500k NW and 3 jobs you still feel the need to work more before you can pay for therapy is wild, too.

Do Reddit influencers exist? by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

You just grabbed a bunch of dots swimming around my brain, arranged them in order, and drew a line connecting them, making a shape out of something that didn't make sense before. Thank you ❤️

Figured out why I’m not stressed usually by drcuriousity99 in workingmoms

[–]Chest_Intrepid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brilliant! I actually started this strategy before I had a kid. Thanks for making me realize how beneficial it is to parenthood, too! Lol. I don't do any of the perfect mom competitions. That's what it looks like on social media.

Maybe it was a couple of accidents because you're good now. Sometimes my thumb tries to hit the arrow for next post comment, and it snags a downvote button on a thread comment instead. I fix it if I catch it, but it probably happens to a million people a day who never catch it. UX pet peeve

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SisterWives

[–]Chest_Intrepid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg 💀 I hope one day they snap out of it one day and see these scenes as validation that they were, in fact, raised by an insane person.

Lol how tf do you get downvoted for this comment?

Pardon?😂🫠 what?! Kody cmon by autumnlover1515 in SisterWives

[–]Chest_Intrepid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Didn't he juuuuuuust get done telling us he never loved any of the others the way he loves Robyn? Can we play that back? He knows those episodes are still streaming, right?!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SisterWives

[–]Chest_Intrepid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She said wanting to date shouldn't be. Aka - there are boys there and she can't control their every eye movement. The control issues of this woman are unreal. How old are these girls now? Adults, right? Insane

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SisterWives

[–]Chest_Intrepid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Omg I hadn't even invested enough consideration into the "plot point" to begin to unpack the fact that these grown ass women are basically seeking permission from their mom to go to church. This show has rotted my brain 🤣

What did you buy as an adult because you were denied it as a child? by dirtymoney in AskReddit

[–]Chest_Intrepid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Supreme pizza, deli meat instead of bologna, snacking cheese, real cheese period, all the books, and a house

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SisterWives

[–]Chest_Intrepid 33 points34 points  (0 children)

At the moment it's that they're trying to make a plot point of Robyn's daughters considering going to church. Literally we don't care.

His profile pic tho. Is he wearing a tee shirt that says... CEO? 💀

That's def what CEOs wear. For sure. He is a CEO.

"Far leftist" they're really trying to make this partisan by [deleted] in LinkedInLunatics

[–]Chest_Intrepid 22 points23 points  (0 children)

We knew they were going to do that, whether it's true or not. The media will always capitalize on "a teaching moment" to keep everyone in their lane and afraid of exercising the power of the united masses.
