Dirk Duggar Got it up again

[Buckethead]

I'm sure at least a handful of people on here have seen "Idiocracy."

Maybe, just maybe, a family like this is our only hope of preventing that future.

Its one man and his wife. As "funny" as the situation is, it could be much, much worse.

They have a lot of kids. Okay. If 2/3 of those kids grow up and "make something of themselves," then the Duggars have given more to our future than I ever hope to.

First thing that came to mind:

Gosh, I wonder what religion they are?

Okay, I now find nothing wrong with 18 kids.  Myabe we can all learn a lesson from these parents. 


That movie was really scary!

Fecundity. It's actually interesting to see all that variety with resemblance. They must spend a lot of time comparing each other. Just think about all the different possible gene combinations...

And all the J names? My mom has enough trouble remembering my name!

my mom is one of 17.  catholic farm family, no donations from the church community like the Duggars and the all lived in a normal sized 4 bdr house.  most of the food came from the farm and the older sibling would help with the younger.  until the older kids started driving, they had one car, usually a full size chevy.  

all of them have grown up to be respectable, successful (school teachers to bank CEO's) human beings.  although the duggars seem a bit more 'churchy' than my family so i do not know about that.

also gramma had 17 natural births, no twins, no c-sections, so she wins. lol

Whoa. That's impressive, but I meant the most from one man and many, many, many different women...

A buddy of mine had a 23 year old man call him and say Hi Dad.  Never knew!

The Duggars seem to be well off and stable, albeit horny people.  I say if they can afford the kids, more power to them.

Yeah, that part kinda bugged me.

Its right up there with naming all of your kids "George."
