Jesus. Only logical.

Jesus Fucking Christ.

That's what I would name the fucking kid.

EIGHTEEN CHILDREN? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

Their youngest is 9 months old. 9 months, people.

This woman has been pregnant for ELEVEN YEARS.

And I was raised in a family of three J's, and my mom still can't keep that shit straight. Good luck, baby 19!

Oh, for fuck's sake.

How about Jesus? Since that's where they were going anyway.

*Maybe that was too snarky?

FREAAAAAAAKS

I'm convinced they will have children until the only J name left is Jermajesty.

please please please let there be a simpsons episode soon...

Joy-anna and Johanna? STOP BREEDING!

Stop fucking already, or put a lock on it people.

I will ship you the condoms MYSELF.

I knew you'd post about this.

Seeing that family glorified on the Today Show again this morning made me so uncomfy.

TLC replaced Jon and Kate Plus 8 with these people one night. Like I would abandon Jon and Kate for these wackos.

She looks really great for nineteen kids.

And the Kardashian family says "At least we're not them! BWAHAHAHAHA!"

How about Just Try, as in Just Try some freaking birth control?

According to my co-worker, who is dating an ob-gyn, your uterus can actually fall out after too many pregnancies.

Now I have another nightmare.

I saw the blip on the Today when they said this family o' crazy would be making an announcement, and I knew without watching it would have to be another baby. How do you even keep track of that many kids? It reminded me of Laura on PR: just throw another one on the pile.

Jinger? Jinger?!?!? You can't just rework the English language to better fit your plans for world domination by childbirth. You just can't. Too tacky.

"Quick honey, you've got get yourself pregnant again by Mother's Day so we can go on TV and and milk this crap for all its worth. Again."

Stop. Just stop. Your kids need parents, not baby factories.

How about "Justopalready"

"Justgetavasectomy". Or is that too long?

Joesn't your jagina hurt?

Is that a good name?

Oh, I was going say Jinger, but I see that already got that. WTF?

I vote Juggernaut, for a boy or a girl.

@porkchop2000: They don't want to use birth control, many religions teach against it.

Jon and Kate Plus 8 are totally the B-team to this crew, no?

@saysaudrabarkley: Ah yes. Because pro-choice only applies to choosing NOT to have kids, and not to a family that chooses to have as many as they can?

Keep in mind these people are debt free and do not (to my knowledge) draw government support.

I mean, yeah, they're a freakshow, and I'm weirdly fascinated by them, but what is so damn objectionable about these people choosing this lifestyle?

@Pinkosaurus: O/T My husband sees two kids in a professional context, a brother and a sister, His Majesty and Her Majesty. I kid you not.
Re: these folks. I feel like Alice in Dilbert: "Must contain fist of death!"

This woman's uterus must not get a moment's peace. I would be afraid that it would stage some sort of rebellion after about the eighth kid.

"We let the Lord decide."

Umm, have these folks not heard of science?

Let's hope she has a safe, uneventful pregnancy. I wonder if her lifespan is going to be shortened from bearing so many children?

@Pinkosaurus: I mean seriously, Jinger?

i loved when meredith called the one kid jing-er rhymes with ringer (rather than sounds like ginger). that's what happens when you pick a letter for names and then have EIGHTEEN CHILDREN

@CorporateTool: I was just gonna ask: Is this safe? Especially since it seems like she's pretty much been pregnant consecutively with these childrens.

I had a teacher once like this. Something like 13 kids. She had grandkids younger than some of her own kids!

I vote Joan Jett for the next one. Or John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt.

Jehosaphat.

How in the great slippery fuck do they support seventeen children?

@biscuitdoughjones:literally!

oh, it was too easy.

Whenever I watch their specials on TLC, I want to hate them so badly. But all the kids seem so loving and friendly. The parents on the other hand--well, they both seem a little off their rockers. She has spent a good half of her life either pregnant or taking care of a newborn. I guess if they can afford to support (both financially and emotionally) all those kids, then fine, but I can't help but think it's a little selfish to have as many kids as your uterus can handle.

@BAngieB: Yes, so they should be using the rhythm method. But, hey, it ain't my family. I just won't be sending them any diapers because they are struggling to raise 18 children. Christ on a cracker, it's insane.

Let this be a lesson, ladies. Never let a man named Jim Bob anywhere near your cooter. No good can come of it.

JumpinJehosophat?

How about "Jugsaredry"

@katastic: Hhhaaahahhahahahahahhahaha! COTD!

Funny this shows up the same week I get really into "Big Love."

lol @ "jinger"

I vote for Janna.

I think I read somewhere that these guys actually survive on hand-outs from others. ie Jesus wants them to have more babies than they can afford. And for Momma Duggan to prolapse. Thanks Jesus!

This piece about Quiverfull and the comments on it are heartbreaking. Allegedly many of these patriarchs dump their wives and the kids and save up for mail order brides so they can start all over again. And there are wives panicking because they may not be able to conceive a sixth child and that would make them worthless in the eyes of the lord. Sick.

@ForeverBlueGirl: The Lord decides to make a baby for them; it always conveniently happens whenever his sperm meets her egg and implants in her uterus!

@hortense:Hey, that my name too!

@ForeverBlueGirl: The Lord invented science, don't you know that??

Justanother?

@ForeverBlueGirl: If by "science" you mean "intelligent design" then, yes, these people are familiar.

If you mean "science" as in Science then, no, does not compute.

I'm gonna guess she really didn't mean that kind of pearl necklace.

@Archetype: They don't believe in the rhythm method either.

Here's what they believe, the Quiverfull movement.[en.wikipedia.org]

@Jeremy: comment of the day!!!!!!

The only good that can come of this is yet another TLC late-night special. Maybe this time they will build an amusement park! A Christian amusement park! Or road trip across a different country. And pick up converts!

Ugh.

@boring diatribes: I feel bad for the kids. They seem perfectly sweet. It's their parents I hate.

Jontributing to joverpopulation?

Jrhythm Jethod? Jenopause? Jfood Jtamps? JFDLS?

The sad thing is, thanks to the way I was brought up, I actually know people like this. It kind of terrifies me. And also gives me another excuse not to have children, since these people have enough for me and everyone I know.

I have watched them on cable, and while they are so totally out there, they are really good parents, the kids are all sweethearts, they can provide for them.,etc,etc
They freak me out a lot, but I like them, and to them I say Mazel Tov.

Ok. I think there is an argument that needs to be made here, though:

I am not comfortable with this. I don't personally agree with it.

BUT: Michelle Duggar'
