C&K: The Struggle is Real...ly Hard to Relate (Part 14)

[lovingthisforum]

I wonder why they are going out of the way to show her, and her house and the dinner, etc and make a whole vlog about how she's moving nearby as well. I know we can't really compare what we do with what vloggers do, but to me it's as if my sister got released from jail, and I posted her all over my Facebook page (since I don't vlog), saying she's been in Colorado, and then showing pictures of _her_ house. I wouldn't post a bunch of pictures of someone else's house on my page unless I was showing off. It's just weird to me, especially when they are hiding the truth. Makes me think she's going to start vlogging again. She has a channel, after all. And it seems like it's the thing vlogger relatives do. Especially if the main channel in the family has any success. Or maybe it is just showing off. They show Granddolly and Granddoc's house plenty. Maybe this is Cullen saying "See? My family is successful too!"
Hiding it does add to the stigma. It's all very odd to me.
Anyone taking bets on how long it's going to take her to start posting vlogs?

I had the same feeling, and Grandberry even promoted her channel by mentioning it in the vlog loud and clear, looking right into the camera. On a different note, I was wondering how come Cullen showed Brittney so disproportionately more than his other sisters, it's "overwhelming" almost, and from one extreme into the other. Oh well, we'll see, it's not that important. I know right, I also read he threw BBQ food over the parking lot, and one of his friends was making a joke about "if" he was sober. But lets just wait and see what happens, we have way too few info to draw any conclusions.

I dont think there as comfortable being filmed?
I know in past vlog's Annie as said to stop filming her so maybe there ok with a quick hi how are you and that its
her dog is adorable them and looks like she is growing into her tongue
same as Rachel you have seen more of her kids in the vlog's where they are vising her daughter in particular likes talking to the camera
where Britney is quite comfortable and known to take over the vlog

I could watch a whole vlog of that bulldog!

Long time lurker but I had to join to ask, did no one find Brittanys "ill have a garden, a special garden" in her basement comment with laughter all around a bit...interesting...

That seems like a dumb thing to say fresh out of jail.

I was wondering why she said that too!! I'm sure she was joking, but if she really wants to grow/sell marijuana at least move back to Colorado where it's LEGAL!!

So, it sounds like she's going to start posting on her channel. Anyone think she's going to be open about her life, or pretend that she has been "out of town"? A vlog about recovery would definitely be unique. She could help people-- show that addicts aren't just nasty people on the streets. Obviously, she isn't obligated to, although one of the tenets of recovery is "rigorous honesty".
I mean, the vlog wouldn't have to be all about recovery. I am just wondering if she's going to mention it.

If she starts vlogging I wonder how C&K feel about her sharing their last name. They've tried to keep it private for so long (not 100% successfully but anyway), are they suddenly just gonna reveal it?

I think she'll try to pretend. It won't last long. People read here and will spill in the comments.

[wishes]

In a recent vlog, Grandberry blurted out their last name with no intention of Cullen editing it out so who knows. It's common knowledge by now.

What??! She's been vlogging under her real name since she started her channel in about 2011 (unless she recently changed the name). She's posted more than 30 videos under her real name.

Brooks' eye was so strange.. it honestly looked like he had some facial paralysis or something. I'm glad Katie went on to say that he was still smiling fine and all that bc it honestly looked like a symptom of a stroke. Has anyone else seen this in their kids? can you have facial paralysis from just sleeping really hard on your face? lol

Somewhat related but I once woke up from a night of heavy drinking unable to move or feel the left side of my face for a good hour. The numbness slowly went away and I was back to normal after that. I was so drunk I just sort of passed out on the couch and slept so heavily that I cut off all blood flow to my face, sort of like your arm going numb underneath you.

Obviously Brooks wasn't drunk, but I can absolutely believe that a kid his age could do the same thing if he was sleeping hard enough.

I've actually heard of something like this!! But on a much more serious scale.. We have some (former) friends who one of them was (is? not sure) a terrible alcoholic (this sounds awful after you telling your story, i swear im not calling you an alcoholic. LOL! This was a chronic issue with him). He had the same thing happen to him, but instead of his face (although he did say it effected his face as well) it was his arm and hand. It started happening so often that finally it got to the point that the feeling and control wouldnt come back into his arm and some fingers. It's called Saturday Night Palsy, and is caused from falling asleep or passing out, either heavy on your arm or with your arm hanging off a chair arm for extended, repeated times. It took him almost 2 months and a brace to finally regain use of his arm. Mostly drunk people get it, bc they sleep so hard they can't feel themselves going numb, hence the name Saturday Night Palsy! I actually thought of that story when they were talking about him sleeping so hard on that side of his face. I can totally see how it could happen to a baby or toddler, sometimes they sleep as hard as a drunk adult! lol

Hopefully Britney will be open and honest with her story if she does start vlogging. It will be hard for me to pass judgement if she decides not too though. Addiction is a hard thing to deal with socially, and even though she would be doing a great good by breaking down at least a little of the sigma. i can see her being reluctant to share a story that heavy with basically everyone. some people are judgey AF and i'm not sure thats something someone in her place (fresh outta lockdown) would be able to handle. If she doesn't want to talk about it, then i hope she chooses her lies carefully. She has every right to keep things private if she chooses, but she also has to realize that people will google her and will figure it out real quick. Her best bet would to be truthful, open and honest. She would get cross over traffic from C&K's vlog, which will include kids.. so she could be a good cautionary tale. If she decides not to bring it up then she should just pick up where she left off and bring up the past as little as she can, that way when people do find out (bc they will) she won't have a ton of lies she has to come clean about. I dont know if vlogging would be the best idea for her right now, but i cannot judge her for not wanting her entire messy story out there for public consumption...

Yes... But they all have around 100 views each or less. Obviously she has no issue sharing her last name on, that's not my point. I just wonder if C&K mind, since they have a much bigger following now than they did before, so way more people will find out their surname now that Britany is back in vlogs.

[workfromhomemom]

I would think the last thing Britany would want to do is vlog. Being on her brother's channel would be completely different than having her own, especially if she decided to daily vlog. Just think of the criticisms that come with any video out there. I would hope she would pass on it.

Yay for Cullen getting better fitting jeans!!! They look so much better on him. I recently made my husband try a tighter style jeans from his regular relaxed fit bootcut styles. It's amazing the difference. lol

I'm interested in the hair dye situation. I can totally see cullen with blue or purple hair, but i cannot see katie with the pink, but i totally support them trying it out - signed, a mom their age with purple hair.. lol

The vlogs seem more enjoyable every since they had that open chat about their marriage. Tension seems like it lifted and they are enjoying each other company again.

I have noticed that too. It seems like just getting it off their chest has really helped.

Or they have course corrected from telling people and are now putting in a better effort at hiding their annoyance with one another.

I've seen too many couples figgt on FB and then act like they are "goals" just a day later expecting no one to remember what they said.

[lmmomSD]

I would still smack Cullen for putting something in the vlog after telling her he was going to cut it out. He's been sneaking up on her a lot lately. At least this time she wasn't in the tub.
If they want better fitting jeans, maybe they should go somewhere besides Walmart?

The reason I think Brittany is going to start vlogging is because of the way they featured her and her new home, and Grandberry making sure to mention her channel name. Maybe I am wrong. It just smacks of another vlogger family member thinking it's an easy way to make $$ and wanting to jump in, like Jay and Kelly, and the Griffiths and everyone around Bryan and Missy. I don't think she should, honestly. After jail, she needs a routine and structure to help her stay clean. It's relatively easy to stay clean in jail, with no temptation. But we'll see what happens.

And I think the pink hair dye is something for Breast Cancer Awareness. They talked about the Costa Rica trip today.
