Make. Them. Stop.

Ma Duggar pushes out yet another bundle of joy. Interestingly, this baby, a girl, was born by Caesarean section. One would think that after 17 births Ma could have pushed Jordyn-Grace Makiya (not kidding) out by simply sneezing. Go figure. As for an appropriate gift for the family? I'm sending a gross of condoms.

GMB... think of the awesome touch football and softball games they could have at family reunions. Her brood can almost field two whole teams.

Mein Gott. Weren't we just commenting on #17 not that long ago?
And a C-section? That does not compute. Maybe it was really a v-plasty so her internal lady parts don't fall out.

I'm with SorCrow. They had to tack things up and in, all over the place.

Make it stop, indeed. Ridiculous.

Must be like banging the Peruvian Trench. "Are you in yet, Jim Bob?"

[distributorcap]

i dont even know what to say

OK, I admit that I'm late to the party, because I had never even heard of these morons. Even though they have their own cable show (but then there are soooo many channels- it's hard to keep up).

Leaving aside Mom's fertile womb for a moment, the father is Jim Bob. I grew up in a part of Texas where this sort of double-naming was compulsory for the Anglos (ah, school days with Leatrice Ann) and the Mexican boys were all named Jesus.

But it's something I've never understood, like beehive hairdos and mullets. People they have television in the jungles of Brazil (where Baywatch is still huge). You can watch television anywhere and see what culturally accepted clothing styles and naming conventions are. Is this all tribal bonding of some sort in the American outback? Giving your kids weird names and haircuts? "We'll show them up snooty city slickers! We're not calling him James Robert, we're calling him Jim Bob. And as soon as his hair grows out, we're getting him a mullet."

I live in New York and I'm sure my old neighbors in Texas think I spend my time running around naked in discotheques (yeah, they're a little out-of-date with that too). Would that it were so.

maybe they will keep going until they run out of names that start with the letter J

Whatever happened to zero population? Or was that the last century?

Spartacus: Have you seen the photos? Not exactly an athletic family (except for the bedroom, of course).
Sorghum: You know what? Your idea makes great sense. The docs probably went in to staple her uterus to her bladder. Pretty.
dguzman: I've read that they want to have even more. Look at the photos...no compelling reason to keep increasing that gene pool.
JDM: Maybe his penis has that sonar positioning thing that bats have. He could probably hear an echo.
DCap: Stunning, isn't it?
bowtiejack: The oldest son is married (he's 18 after all), but I have hope that a gaggle of them leave mommy and daddy and find their way to the city. And then the studio produces their take on their upbringing.
skippy: I'm not a bible reader, but in the section where they start saying who begot whomever, well, there's a lot of names. That is, until the mother's uterus tries to escape, they are going to push out more kids. Sigh.
Marco: I'm doing my part for zero population, but the fucking Duggars (literally and figuratively) are killing my efforts. That said, I think zero population is meant for the rest of us, but not the fundies. Oi. GMB
