    All the tread title suggestions so far have been great. Here’s what we have so far.

    Hannah’s:
    Dartoddler Can't Wait Til Dinner. She KNOWS Snacking On Candy Bars Is A Winner. Sucking Delight From Her BUBBA Pacifier, Also Stops The Scale Going Higher.

    Crusty Pie’s:
    No exercise in Dar's life of ease. Spends her days fondling cheese.

    Bubbe’s:
    Dar’s mantra is quick and easy, Pre-cooked food and treats is all we see, This healthier journey, Will find her on a hospital gurney

    =====

    Trixie saying Darlene’s diet is doomed and Scarlett and Trixie listing all her junk food, as well as Bubbe saying “gurney” was so funny that I made up one too. However it’s a bit too dismal for a thread title, lol.

    =====

    Yes, indeed. The Truckers Wife Congratulations on your accomplishment. And to your husband as well on his success.

    I don’t know what Darlene’s trying to lose, but it’s not weight. More like viewers.

    Who’s got time to wait around for Darlene to do that? And what was the point of removing those videos anyway. It’s not as though she’s updating with new and improved ideas about healthier shopping and freezer stocking. Evidence - today’s video. Darlene lives on processed food. At this point she’s not even stocking her freezer with meals she’s prepares herself - she’s just buying stuff from Costco, showing what she’s bought and putting it in the freezer. It’s all so pointless. But her fan viewers seem to really appreciate it.

    I’ll go with whatever color is not on the loofah mobile, thank you.

    I quit smoking almost 20 years ago and kept 1 cigarette for another time. WTAF was I thinking...well I wasn't but my brain told me I needed it. I gave myself a good talking to saying "what, is it champagne or something for a special occasion?" Then I threw it out. You just have to be prepared to distract or mess with, your brain until it adjusts. At least that's how I handled it. I knew my brain would see the empty space on the table where I kept my cigarettes and ashtray so I put other things there, such as remote controls, so it didn't see the empty space and get me thinking about smoking

    Congratulations on quitting for good, Eyedunno. The best thing you could do for yourself. And nicotine isn’t that easy to ditch. It’s such a specific chemical and there’s no substitute for it. So good for you.

    That’s why I can’t understand why Darlene can’t control her so-called food addiction. It’s not as though she has to give up food entirely, as you do with nicotine, but just make better food choices, and even fill up on foods that are good for her. Yes, there may be psychological reasons for her dependence on junk food, but she still has a choice. With cigarettes or other addictions you don’t have a choice. It’s all or nothing. But I’m no expert on the subject. I’m just here judging Darlene’s poor willpower and admiring your strong one. But as you did with training your brain away from the source, why can’t Darlene make that sort of effort? She’s just hanging on to her junk food like crutches, instead of going full in with a good program. She really doesn’t want to do any hard work.

    Yes, Pond, I’ve never seen pants hung like that before. It certainly makes it easier to see the label without digging into the rack.

    Seeing that Darlene is such a fan of the brand Ravensburger why can’t she learn the way it’s pronounced. It’s “Ravens” like the bird, Darlene.

    How is that t-shirt dress going to fit Darlene?

    Attention everyone: Lay those divorce rumors to rest. Darlene is shopping for shirts for “my husband” and letting us know what types of coffee cups “my husband” liked “over the years”. :lol:

    That’s one stereotype of a doofus face right there, Chortle. Only Darlene could make that face without trying to do it deliberately.

    No idea if the highlighted name color can be changed, but it seems to be yellow automatically once you use the tag feature.

    I was really turned off by her description of opening & eating that bag of chips & ‘cracking open’ a can of soda. It was so creepy. She described it like a date. Out of touch with reality indeed.

    Holy moly, Kayla! I missed that whole section, (often just listen and not look at her) and it’s a shocking gem. What a scenario. It’s like she’s going through a whole play by play and dissection of her chip and soda ritual, and even talks about “addiction” a bit later. Wow! Darlene is one lost puppy (well, not puppy, another animal, but it wouldn’t be nice to state it, lol).

    Now for her thrifting video.

    You beat me to it, Pond. I was just going to check out what Kayla said about Darlene talking about her chips and soda and I saw it! Darlene is working hard to rebuild her channel video inventory, like her food inventory, lol.

    You captured the 10:57 face first. We now see DarVampire’s teeth. All the better to rip into that food inventory, lol.

    Thanks, Chortle.

    Now I’m wondering whether I’m correct about that particular rule. I checked the forum rules and it’s not listed there. So apparently we can diagnose, lol.

    It might have been an old rule from another iteration of this forum and it just stuck in my head. I’m not sure anymore.

    Your posts are always hilarious. I love how you talk directly to Darlene. I wish she could hear you, lol.

    QUOTE
    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH wtf was that face? 10:57! she has gasping for air it would seem and pulled her mouth and lips back closed her eyes, took a breath in and continued. just eeww.

    10:57. She’s talking about her “freezer inventory” so, it’s a strain on her respiratory system, lol.

    Aww, she’s cute, Sam. Hope she wasn’t too badly hurt and that she recovers soon.

    Interesting, Sophia, and perhaps time will tell one way or another. Steve might remarry and we’ll see the bans posted, lol.

    CheapAssMustard
    It was just funny that you brought up the strawberriy jam Darlene made just at this time, lol.

    I’ve never heard of Grenade bars so I looked into it. They contain a lot of maltitol! Maltitol tastes great, very similar to real sugar but is hard to digest. It can cause cramping, bloating, gas and diarrhea. If I see maltitol on an ingredient list I steer clear. There’s no way Steve and Darlene are eating these bars daily and not having issues.

    She needs to stop trying to justify all these little treats and just eat real food. Why does the 3pm pick me up need to be Starbucks and a Grenade bar full of artificial sweeteners and chemicals? Pack an apple or some almonds with a cheese stick and bring your water in the car. Easy! If we’re to believe she’s picking up Andrew from RISE (we know better here) why can’t she wait until dinner time like everyone else? She’s not going to starve to death.

    Trixie, I’ve never heard of half the things that Darlene buys myself, lol. All those ingredients like maltitol and sorbitol, and other sweeteners may be okay in small doses, but they still can affect your blood sugar levels and impair weight loss, and the way Darlene mops up the products must be the worse way to consume these ingredients.

    Darlene shouldn’t be eating anything in a processed form at this point. But, as you say, she’s determined to justify all these food choices. Apples are like anathema to her. I don’t know why she’s so anti-apple. Such a wonderful staple in a diet. She’s trained herself with her pick me ups like a Pavlov dog. She’s determined not to feel the least little empty feeling. That must be an awful way to live though, always having to feel stuffed to the gills.

    QUOTE (Pond Scum @ 29/4/2024, 16:08) 
    Pissing and shitting herself may already be something she deals with (common with heavy drinkers).

    Maybe it's her new "weight loss method"...🤣

    Also, I guess that's why they call it grenade!

    Lol. With the quantity she consumes, Pond, you may not be wrong. Darlene may say she’s just have one bar now and then, but she sure buys a lot overall, plus all the other stuff. I just see a blur of processed foods she show her grocery hauls.

    Darlin. I see what you did there. SPOT ON! 😁

    :snickering:

    I see similarities between the two of them, Socal. Thank heavens we don’t have to deal with Darlene or that other one in real life. Or god forbid, work for them.

    Then comes the killer as she spies acid wash is on trend again and starts wishing she'd kept her jeans from back in the day . . .

    I laughed at that too, Hannah. The delusion is real. Unless Darlene was the size she is now back in the day.

    More seriously, anyone else find this video quite disturbing? I'm a bit behind on the thread so I'll see what you all think in a minute.

    Darlene appeared more manic and out of touch with the reality of her situation than ever to me. The video was such a blur of extremes that the lies, contradictions and obsessiveness seemed to tip over into real delusion.

    I noticed that she seems much more self-satisfied, even to the point of feeling comfortable enough to lecture more. Her two pound weight loss has gone to her head. The way she feels justified enough to stand there in that kitchen and go into all the details of her thought process for grocery shopping and what she does and doesn’t do, what she’s doing now, the kind of person she is, etc. - well, it’s like ego and delusion in overdrive, considering her situation. The reason for it I have to think is rooted in that personality type we aren’t supposed to diagnose by the rules here and that I have no authority to diagnose. Just my opinion.

    Darlene, at one point in her lecture says, “before when I was a stay at home mom”, lol, what is she claiming she is now? A career woman? The delusion of Darlene. :eyeroll:

    Great recap, Kayla.

    How I found Darlene - came in with the original “Pretty Neat Unlike Jen” forum for Jen Ross, then that crashed and changed to the Bakery, eventually followed CAM and Hannah from the My Great Challenge thread to Darlene’s thread and stayed for the DarDrama, fun commentary and spirit of the posters here. I was never a Darlene viewer before. But I’ve been here for years now, so I guess I’m hooked. Sometimes I really can’t stand her, and I have to go away, even with the fun commentary.

    Jodi,Chad and,Lori have been added to the list. Stephan Sterns was added to the list via DM sent me as well.

    Definitely! Throw the mother in too.

    Have to laugh at Darlene’s recent sense of superiority. Is it those manicures that are inflating her ego? Darlene, the Newbie Fashion Queen sashaying around Giant Tiger assessing the couture there, lol.

    Great comments from everyone. There can never be too many comments - that way the thread will die. Spamming and extra commentary are welcome, especially when the comments are so good. I’d love to quote everyone’s funny or insightful remarks and acknowledge them all.

    CheapAssMustard

    Yes, the strawberry jam. Darlene made jam right? We didn’t imagine it? Now that the video has been removed all the evidence is gone. Darlene doesn’t have to think about that jam ever again. Or maybe Darlene distributed her bottles of jam nestled in a bowl of rotting lemons and dying flowers to all her friends as someone in the news recently did.

    One jar to the manicurist, one to her hair stylist, several to the cashiers at GT, Walmart and all the other frequently visited retail stores. None to Rise or Pat’s home. They wouldn’t accept them anyway.

    Glad to hear you’re on the mend…was getting concerned…welcome back to Darlene’s Delusions

    Thank you so much. I have never so sick in my life. It hit me like a ton of bricks. I wouldn't wish it on anyone but Darlene and Ruby Franke.
    There something definitely going around. One of my sisters that lives out of state has it now and got it from a church event.

    Glad you’re feeling better now, Sophia.

    I’ll add Jodi to the wishlist too. And Chad and Lori. :saying-a-prayer-smiley-emoticon :snickering:

    I don’t know which is worse, Darlene’s monotonous raspy voice babbling on and on about inanities, or her mopey face. Her whole life (she did say it was her life’s purpose or something) is to fill herself up with food. She actually said “tummy is full” and “ satisfied” again. :20130930101758-5e972761: Make it stop.

    Also, did she really say she had eggs in the other fridge left over from Christmas, all the while she’s been buying up the egg stock of her county? And doubling down on the son pick-up stories?

    I’ll leave it to Kayla to excoriate this latest grocery haul because it’s bad and I can’t do it justice, and I’ll leave it to everyone else to cover the other details. I’m just stuck on this 300+lb woman talking about her “tummy” being full. Good god, Darlene, find some other ways of expressing this idea if you must let everyone know. Don’t talk about being “satisfied” or your “tummy”. It’s not a good look for you. But as she says “boughten” and “them meatballs” (though that might have been a conversation glitch) there’s no hope for that. She’ll probably double down and say it more, so better not bring it up too often.
