Baby #19 due 1/1/2009
The Duggars announced their 19th child will be due on New Years Day 2009, and they said they are discussing plans for having their 20th child.

18 kids?!? Gross.
The mom probably has the snap-back of a circus tent. Bless her heart.

Anywho, I saw them on one of the morning shows this morning. I STILL feel that it is totally irresponsible. I STILL contend that the family cannot sustain themselves on the father's income alone; whether they depend on charity or government assistance.

Hence my post: "Let's not split hairs *lol*"
Meaning: given that the Duggars have given birth to a boatload of kids and Mrs. Duggar's uterus is due to drop (out her body) any day now, in the grand scheme of things, does it really matter if her next child is the 18th or the 19th?
In short I was trying say that the incorrect detail in the post was trivial by way of a humourous ribbing to Mrs. Duggar. Nothing more, nothing less. Yall read way more into my post than what I ever intended to convey.
Gosh dang. *chuckles and SMH*
I love yall anyway.

There is nothing humorous about reporting erroneous information.
Just admit you made a mistake and correct the post. *SMH*

I admitted all along it was an error, but that's besides the point

If you want to make something humorous you exaggerate. Like "Couple expecting 1,000th child on New Year's day". When a number is one off, it just looks like an error or laziness NOT an exaggeration....sigh

That is exactly what I essentially tried to do.
The fact is, the Duggars have an outrageously high number of children which is no exaggeration. I took advantage of a trivial erroneous detail to put a spin on the outrageousness to make it appear as if it WAS an exaggeration.
This is one of those times that it would've been better if I my joke was spoken instead of written, because the tone conveyed would've made it clear that I was trying to be funny.
O well, it happens. *shrugs*
