UPDATED: Josh Duggar Part 13 - No longer missing, Still a Jerk

[Buzzard]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SMUGGLES!

May this year be filled with NOT cheating on your wife, getting an actual job, adulting, and not being a misogynist fuck!

MWAH!

Once Josh has been freed I am sure he will be unable to stay away from Twitter. You know he thinks the world needs his great political knowledge. Don't we want to know who the child molesting adulterer endorses for President? I am going to be honest, I can't wait to see him let his stupidity shine. I don't believe it will have any effect on any election but it will amuse me. It will also get a little media attention and not the positive kind. I just don't believe that Josh is capable of keeping his head down, keeping his mouth shut and not seeking the limelight. I await the entertainment.

Depends howmuch control JB and TLC has over him.  I imagine they'll be trying to ban him from the internet for a while.  And although he is a grown man who can tell them to Foff. He may not do so,  if he needs JBs money or his marriage to pretend to work.

How unfortunate to be the child conceived during a conjugal visit while your father was in Prayhab (TM) for having at least 1 dating site profile and 2 cheating site profiles, one with a money back guarantee! 

Oh how I wish "conceived during a conjugal visit in Prayhab (TM)" could be a post count title!  @happy atheist

Not only do I have to share my birthday with Joshy boy, but I caught the flu.  I'm not sure how, but I think it's his fault.

[season of life]

I didn't see a birthday post on the Duggar Family Blog or the Duggars' official Facebook page. I don't know if they're going to put one up or just not do it until later in the day.

[BunnyBee]

Even if Joshley is a scummy p.o.s. he is still their son! I am surprised they haven't even done just like a quick "were praying for you while you spend your birthday in prayhab (TM)" FB status. So much for christian forgiveness

Yeah, his mom and dad were willing to sing of forgiveness on national TV, but they can't put up a quick birthday post on Facebook?

That was when he was just a child molester. Now that he's a porn-watching cheater, all bets are off. Plus, they don't need to grovel for a TV show anymore.

It's almost making me feel bad for him. He may well be a malodorous wanker, but the radio silence is a bit harsh.

[season of life]

That irks me. Josh cheating on his wife caused a bigger stir than child molestation. Dude can't even get a happy birthday. Not that he deserves it, the scumbag.

Don't worry - we'll be happy to blame him for you anyway!

He'll get out of the responsibility of owning up to it.

Yea, but they sang of forgiveness when they still thought it would save their show.  Now, with the new show just weeks away, they can't risk his being connected with their promotions in any way.  

So, yup, what you said, so much for that whole sincere Christian forgiveness thing!

Interesting.....IG is quiet without any Joshley birthday declarations!  Even the fan pages are silent.  So far none on the Facebooks either.  That's a little hardcore, eh?  Or are they still practicing uber damage control since any mention of his name tends to lend itself to a barrage of remarks that they don't want to deal with....

Yeah, I mean, as sad as it is that Josh isn't currently getting any happy birthday posts (it's easy enough to say "Happy birthday, Josh! May this be the year you learn to walk with the Lord!), the vitriol and filth in some of the comments on the family members' IG posts may make them wary of posting anything about Josh.

[Kjaerringa]

I'm thinking it's to avoid backlash. I do hope so. It will be interesting to see how the leghumpers will respond to the absence of greetings. Because I am pretty sure the phrase 'Forgive and forget'.....though it is definitely not biblical....does not mean forget the offender's birthday.....

The Duggars should be careful.  Alienating Josh TOO far may have disastrous results.  After all, he has a LOT of mouths to feed, and we know he is adverse to putting in 40 hours at a J-O-B.  

The more they push him away, the less attention they give him, the more appealing writing a tell-all is going to seem.  After all, he could use it as a way to re-brand himself!  Maybe get a new show on leaving the ATI cult and rebuilding his family.  Take THAT Jill and Jessa (whose wedding spectaculars he seemed rather jealous of!)!  The Golden Boy has returned!

He just got a birthday acknowledgement via Facebook: 

Today is our son Josh’s birthday. The heartache of the past year cannot surpass the joy 28 years ago on this day when we first became parents! We love you Josh and believe your best days can be ahead of you. We continue to pray for you every day.

No pictures.  Maybe he isn't back in Arkansas yet.

I'll admit, I was scrambling. I wanted to be the first at SOMETHING, damnit!

"Can be ahead of you'".  Not "will be head of you".

Sounds like there's still some reasonable doubt about his recovery.

looks like Ma and Pa Duggar don't completely trust that their son will be ok once he is out of rehab from the sound of what they wrote
