More Joshley: Still hiding - Part 16

[silverspoons]

Another guess is he is trying to get back into some sort of business. I know the Duggar's have brought back cars or trucks from FL to sell in AR. Josh also has that credit card processing business. I wonder if he was trying to look busy and productive with work. Personally I think it is rude to sit at the table and talk the entire time if he was trying to buy a few cars or work on his credit card business, but these are Duggar manners. Jim Bob would probably think it was cool and manly to be talking work o the phone at the diner table.  My husband's  phone is connected to a 24/7 emergency number and if we are in any public setting he will go to a quiet place to speak usually outside or in a lobby.

@MarcyMM @Alachantal I collected all of them a few weeks ago. BUT I STILL CAN'T STOP. They'll update again, I KNOW IT.

Also @MarcyMM I JUST noticed your avatar... BRAVO. Or should I say, COCO.

Coco! One of the best cartoons of all time. And I am not too proud to say I am 47 years old.

I have all of them except for the cold weather one, can't remember his name.  I don't check as often since I started with kleptocats. That is just as easy, cute and addictive. Only a little darker. Seriously, check it out.

 You are not alone! 

I confess!  I have a Neko Atsume habit also.  (But you don't play it with the phone on your ear, so that can't be Josh's excuse.)

 I still haven't got my first memento from a rare cat, but I have mementos from about half of the regular cats and pictures of all the regular cats (including Peaches) plus around 1/3 of the rare cats.  I spent all by gold fish today buying a remodel.   

(Sorry for the digression.)

I just downloaded it! I may regret this... or not.

Maybe Josh has a quota of bible time each day and he's listening to something Jesus-y?

When I still had cable I guilty pleasure watched breaking Amish. From my recollection there's a decent sized Amish, fundamentalist community there. Is that just a coincidence? Why does Pensacola draw the fundies?  

That's a good question, and it is kind of funny to me. I used to live in Tallahassee, FL, which is pretty close to Pensacola. I was in college and my impression of Pensacola was that it was a huge party town and popular for spring break. That's all true, but it just is interesting that a city known for partying coeds is also apparently known for its religious fundamentalists.

You can rename them!? Also, PERFETTO name for Chubbs. I need to hear the rest of them

Yes when you go to catbook you can change their name.  

I have a criteria for naming them. They must be US politicians who have been active in the 21st century (held office or ran for office then).  

(I don't know all the original names) but their names are either based on their personalities or their looks.  For example 'Bob the Cat' had a very Bernie Sanders look to him, so that is what I named him.  Joe Biden is the train one (since he commuted by Amtrak when he was a senator).  Bob Menendez is Senor Don Gato (I needed a Latino politician for this particular cat so chose my senator).

Personality traits to politicians
peculiar-- Ron Paul
lady-killer-- Newt Gingrich
leisurely-- George W. Bush
diligent-- Cory Booker
expensive tastes-- Donald Trump
insatiable-- Elizabeth Warren
jealous-- Michele Bachmann
sore loser-- Joe Lieberman
indecisive-- Mitt Romney
ditzy-- Sarah Palin
determined-- Hillary Clinton
crafty-- Dick Cheney
selfish-- Ted Cruz
pragmatic-- Barack Obama

Psychic hotline asking if they can save the show.

I'm imagining a required three hour daily phone conversation with David Waller during which Davey ministers, lectures, and prays really, really hard for Josh's recovery.  

It would explain the look on Smug's face.

TFDW would require a youtube video so the WHOLE WORLD would also know of his awesomness... or a blog post... kind of like the post that gave us his name.  Ah, memories...

I say ship Josh off to Antarctica. At least he won't be a threat to anyone there.

[19 cats and counting]

So this thread inspired a challenge for another FJ Neko Atsume player since I'm sticking with politicians.

Someone needs to name the kitties after our favorite fundies.

Lady Killer-- Josh Duggar
Ditzy-- Jill Dillard
Lonely-- Sarah Maxwell
Selfish-- Jim Bob Duggar
 

Just throwing a few ideas/starters out there.

Good point. And while he was in Washington he probably noticed that the actually important people were glued to their phones all the time, so he thinks it makes him look still important.

Pensacola is like being in Alabama, albeit with better beaches. It's a very conservative town, so it doesn't surprise me that a place like PCC would be located there.

We always referred to the FL Panhandle as "LA" - Lower Alabama....

Is it bad that I can picture Jim Bob and Michelle in disguise, dropping Josh off somewhere in the middle of the night?

Josh is a grown ass man. He'd probably be relieved that he can go back to his lifestyle of hookers and porn. Problem is, he'll have no way to fund those activities because who would hire him?

There used to be something called a "remittance man."  A disgraceful member of a respectable (sometimes even aristocratic) family would be sent far away and paid an allowance to stay away (and preferably not use the family name). Some European families sent their bad apples to other European countries, but often it was to America (whichever part the family in question had contacts in) or some other colonial or semi-colonial out post.  And in the early U.S., many a troublesome son was sent to the frontier (not always with an allowance).

Anyway I was just thinking that Josh might wish to be sent away with an allowance and no further responsibility to the family.

He's already done 6 months of this.  And it may well have been preferable to being JB and Michelle's son, not to mention Anna's husband. And those responsibilities of the parenthood of 4 kids and counting.  He's probably already dreading them by name  - Marie, Marvin, Matt, Melissa....

He can always leave on his own, but the allowance part depends on Jim Bob.  If the show is expected to return, I can see JB wanting to keep total control of Josh and do nothing but provide food and shelter.  If the show officially ends for good, Jim Bob may be willing to pay him off to leave the family.   We are almost guaranteed to see photos of "Josh Going Wild!", dancing with young women in halters on bar room tables and drinking near beer.   Jim Bob will be furious, but if there's no show, there's less of a brand to damage further.
