    Of course. Isn't that how it works?

    What's up with the two cartoon chicks gettin' it on in the ad at the top of the screen?

    Yeah, yeah. I can get rid of the ads if I'm a subscriber. Stick it! :)

    I've never seen the show and I know from reading the 1,500 articles that have been in the magazines that he doesn't work anymore.

    Love the comments left by the readers of the Courier-Press! The Gosselins can and should only blame themselves for this mess.

    What mess? They doubled their ratings -- outdrew the 'Lost' season finale -- all because of the hint of scandal.

    Jon's PR genius should be applauded.

    Holy crap. Even if we weren't talking about "Jon and Kate from TV" I'd say that every parent deserves some time to him/herself every now and then. I only have one, and I know if I weren't allowed a night out every once in a while, to see a movie or watch a game at the sports bar or whatever, I would literally go insane.

    I could only imagine what life must be like with eight.

    Hire a sitter? They've already got all kinds of sitters and nannies hanging around that show. They've already done that.

    If Jon needs a night off, for God's sake give it to him. Preferably, he won't spent it banging strange ass. I commend him for sticking it out that long. Because I would have been out the door at, "You're going to have sextuplets."

    I blame these two numbnuts for exploiting their children. But I don't begrudge either of them a night away every now and then.

    The rules change when you have eight kids compared to just one or even three. Sorry. They just do.

    And you want a weekend off? Fine. But take it when there's nothing going on. And don't bang randoms while you're gone, which I'd bet my next paycheck that he did.

    Remember that the kids' birthday was 2 weeks or so before this episode was shot. He was there for their real birthday, just like he's there for them much more than she is. He just skipped the planning for the made-for-TV-event, which in my book is fine considering he doesn't want to do the show anymore and Kate just nags him to death anyway.

    Jon's not a saint. But he's put up with her crap over the years a lot better than I ever could.

    How much longer until naked pics of Kate show up online?

    One of my favorite members has as his sig: The thing about common sense? It's not that common.
    The thing about reality TV: It is not reality.

    These folks are cashing in here. Anyone really think they're really like what we see on TV? C'mon.
    They have everyone by the balls and they're laughing all the way to the bank.

    All that aside, RIDICULOUSLY hot.

    Sig has been updated, big fella. :)

    And yes, I get the whole non-reality reality of it. It just irriates me that people get caught up in this stuff, much as I have after watching one fucking episode.

    I watch a lot of dumb shit, but this has to take the cake.

    Agreed. She's an absolute silly. Needs to do something with that hair, though.

    Edit to clarify: The hair situation would NOT be a dealbreaker just as I'd hope my oddly shaped body and large melon of a head would not be a dealbreaker for her. :)
