09.08.09 OH FOR CHRIST’S SAKE

wilkinsons

Never mind that TLC already has “18 Kids and Counting” and “Jon and Kate Plus 8,” TLC still craves MORE PROGRAMMING ABOUT LOTS OF CHILDREN!!! Both of those shows started as individual documentaries on TLC, so we may one day live in a world with a show about Mormon quintuplets:

LDS parents Jayson, 35, and Rachelle, 34, Wilkinson of Cedar Park, Texas, agreed to let TLC follow their family through a “typical” day, with special focus on quintuplets Kassidy, Kaydence, Kyndall, Rustin and Ryder, for a documentary called “Multitude of Multiples” which aired Aug. 30.

The documentary presented two other families — the Carpios and the Tabbs — but their stories focused more on the dangers and the emotional drama involved in giving birth to multiples.

Rachelle felt this aspect was important to include in any depiction of families with multiples. “People shouldn’t have a distorted view. They need to know that there are real risks involved (in giving birth to multiples),” she said.

I hope people also realize the real risks involved in being Mormon, too. Don’t get me wrong, those are probably some of the nicest people on the planet. A little too nice. Like the alternate world people in Coraline. Sure, you can be a Mormon. Just let them sew buttons over your eyes.

Kassidy, Kaydence, Kyndall, Rustin and Ryder, show me a worse grouping of names, I dare you.

Also, Kassidy, Kaydence, Kyndall = K.K.K. Coincidence, I think not, just look at that picture.

Every single lowlife Mormon that I know is a raging alcoholic.

Coincidence?

seriously though, mormons and blacks are surprisingly alike when it comes to naming their kids

The over/under on days per week in which “Rustin” has his lunch money taken is 4.5.

Aside from turning your vagina into the Holland Tunnel, sure.

Impossible to beat, but Track, Bristol, Willow, Piper and Trig are a close second.

Where are all the TLC shows about agnostics/atheists/non-psycho religous couples who aren’t poisoning the planet with their ‘roided-up genitals? Where’s their parade?

When your religion says that being anything but white is a curse from God, then you tend to make up for believing in that by being super nice.

Mormon quintuplets:

Dad’s pretty psyched about only having to pay for one wedding for those 3 girls.

Well whats to expect from a family whose religion is based on translations from a hat.

@Skillz: you are incorrect sir. We use more apostrophe’s and hypens in our kids’ names. Thankfully my wife and I don’t belong to the church of hoodrat.

OK…

So some people had quintuplets, and now it’s an excuse to bag on Mormonism.

Classy.
