You wrote a serious business post to respond to a one-liner joke post. That qualifies. Sorry for your humorlessness.
A serious replay to an inept joke ≠ flip-out. Sorry.
Off to bed with you, Mikey, the grown-ups are having a grown-up discussion.
Ahahahahahahahahahahaha you’re terrible.
8 children was the norm long ago. Of course, that wasn’t by choice, and I am thankful for birth control.
I never pictured her looking like a microwaved Angelina Jolie.
8 kids at once was never the norm, that is strictly the result of modern fertility treatments.
I don’t think anyone did, honestly.
Personally, I think that would probably be the best outcome of this mess. Hopefully then they might have a chance of ending up with parents who aren’t crazy. But unfortunately I think instead what will happen is that she will keep custody of them and keep using them to continue to be a parasite feeding off of the rest of us.
In a way it was sort of savvy of her to realize that people can’t stand the thought of children going without and knowing that was her ticket to exploit the public’s generosity.
Totally agreed. How about, “We’ll leave you two children, and put the rest up for adoption, because there are too many people in the world already and you idiots aren’t helping. We’ll let you choose which two you keep.”
Unfortunately, I don’t see this happening. Reality tv is far too cheap to produce. What is more likely is 16 years from now, we’ll have shows like, “I Was an Octo-Mom Baby!”
If this show ever happens, I am so blaming you CW for even bringing it up. That was enough to make me gag a little.
Crap, I should have posted in a blog instead of here - now the Straight Dope will get my copyright money. 
I’m eagerly awaiting Jinger Duggar’s tell all book. At the very least I hope she gets to read this message board:
At least one of the Duggars must rebel and turn into a nice normal human being who doesn’t confuse her uterus with a clown car, doesn’t promote ultra religious insanity and doesn’t believe that her children exist to serve as extra parents.
“Oh, and since you’ve already contributed enough genetic material to the race…you’re getting a tubal/vasectomy on Thursday. Don’t eat or drink anything after 10 PM on Wednesday.”
She can write?
Good plan.
I say let them have a shot at pay per view. The oddball voyeurs can pay for the privilege of gawking, and the rest of us are safe.
While 8 kids at once was never the norm, families having 8 kids wasn’t unusual back in the very old days, if you counted all the stillbirths and dead kids.
If you can figure a way to send her back to the last century, I’m all for it.
Plane ticket to Iran?
Oh, wait, that’s going back four or five centuries…
Don’t feel bad. At least you provided a source of revenue to be applied for servers upgrades
