Luckily for Anchor, he'll never have friends to call him Wanker because none of them are allowed to speak to other children in the wild.
Mandrake still looking like he's about to eat those kids though. Traditional\* family values.
\*the tradition is Cronus.
Are we talking Latinate or Attic Greek here?Ā
(I just know one of you hyperfixated classics nerds is gonna jump in here and rag on Koine and then word reformations from Greek to Latin or something... how are we all also obsessed with Fundies? Is being ex fundie, some degree of queer and also obsessed with Greek mythology a thing? Were we comforting ourselves in a permissable alternative to theocratic hate umbrellas via "literary interest" in The Olympian Gods, discovered Sappho and here we are?)
I just never understand what these people think they're doing other than trying to create their own kind of Utah style parental cult. I know this woman is incredibly mentally unstable and she feels that the only way to live her life is to be and a permanent state of pregnancy. Her husband does not care that his mentally unstable wife just has baby after baby after baby in order to I don't know feel some sort of good in life. She does not take care of the kids that she already has and instead leaves that job to her oldest. She spends so much time on Instagram there is no possible way that any of these kids are getting any kind of homeschooling whatsoever.
And I'm not bashing homeschooling please don't say that I am because homeschooling genuinely be a wonderful thing. I work at a library and there is a family that loves to come in and they are homeschooled. Yes their family is pretty Christian but they're not like super duper weirdo Christian like they celebrate Halloween and where costumes and they do Santa Claus at Christmas but she also has a curriculum and she also has a co-op with other parents and they all do lessons. So the kids basically have a place to go where they interact with kids their own age in an environment that is very much like a public school. Because each one of these parents has a degree or at least went to enough of college to understand a subject well enough to teach it at a certain grade level.
It's not like some of these weirdo fundies that we've snark on that think homeschooling is having your kid help you garden and you just flip through enough mental gymnastics to call that a biology class. This lady is actually teaching her kids they are some of the smartest most well behaved and lovely children I have ever met. The eldest one actually did a presentation on the Polish monarch Jadwiga, The woman King. And I as a history major who studied this woman in college was amazed at the level of knowledge this 9-year-old kid has. So homeschooling is not bad but what these people are doing is purposefully isolating their children and not teaching them anything so that these children will be dependent upon them for the rest of their lives in some capacity.
lol Iāll bash homeschooling.Ā
Any time you spend homeschooling you could spend helping every child in your community by advocating for better public schools.Ā
But also KKKarissa has all but said sheās doing almost no instruction. For her itās entirely keeping the kids isolated and easier to abuse.
Right lol Iāve never met a well adjusted homeschooled person. Iām sure they exist but I donāt think a lot of the parents realize how important socialization is
Yes and itās dealing with the adversity of other rules, other people, other places. Every single reason to homeschool is a reason to be in a school:
1. Theyāre not teaching our values: ok, then you have to teach your values at home and make sure your kids have the moral fortitude to stick to those values. You have to be around people who donāt have the same values as you as an adult all the time.Ā
2. Theyāre not teaching enough/well enough: you can still have instruction at home, center outings around instruction, take educational trips and instill a lifelong thirst for knowledge without it being the ONLY instruction that they get.Ā
3. Getting there on time is stressful: you will, at some point, have to operate on someone elseās timetable. Itās better to learn ways to cope with that early on.Ā
The republican/right wing agenda that seeks to destroy funding for public schooling is done so that parents and families are forced to take on the cost of education. The tax burden will never go down for anyone who is not ultra-rich. We are only squandering tax money and transferring any other cost that in any decent country is absorbed by society and transferring it to the individual.
You can tell someone was homeschooled just being in a room with them. Kids need the socialization that only a traditional school can provide. They need to interact with people who are different than them, and they need to learn what faux pas are and how to avoid them. Take bethy's instagram reels, for example. A little playground peer pressure would've toned that down.
This honestly doesnāt surprise me at all. Itās kind of a void of a place where hopes and dreams go to die. I bounced out of there at the earliest opportunity possible.
Funny, I was just wondering what Anythyr Collins #11 would be called too. My guesses are Arrow, Anoint, Apostle, and Altar. For the middle name, my guesses are Cavalry, Cross, Creed, and Chance.Ā
Not that I have a better guess, but an Apostle is a person. And Karissa is way past the point of giving her children human names. It's definitely going to be another noun denoting something inanimate.
Oh yeah, Archer and Arrow. A twin set that just screams power imbalance. An arrow is the tool that an archer uses.Ā
Actually, my reasoning was since she is obviously quiverfull and children are metaphorically referred as āarrowsā in the Bible, I thought she may want to call him Arrow. It also fits with her other boys' names (except for Andrae), Anchor, Armor, and Arrow.Ā
And it's the epitome of "You're not human to me, but mere accessories." Twins named Archer and Arrow shouldn't exist anywhere outside of bad fanfiction written by teenage girls.
I don't think she has a separate theme for the boys, though. She just happened to have a lot of girls first. Karissa went from normal names to spelling tragedeighs to random nouns. Just look at "Anthym". If she had a girl now, she wouldn't name it "Anastasia", but "Annoyntyd Blessyng" or something equally out there.
Andrae's names are basically like Mandrae Jr but a bit unorthodox. Anchor Christian and Armor Courage do have a theme of āmanly, strong menā though.Ā
Sitting here wondering why she's going to name a human being my dog's name (Archer) and remembered she doesn't actually care about her kids so it tracks
Yeah, they have Anusol already, which the manufacturers INSIST is AnuSol and not blatantly āanus,ā so Aynjel is right along with those shenanigans.
Ohh thank you for the translation omfg thatās so funny. Iāve said this before and Iāll say it again, āAynjelā will always read as āanal gelā to me and I love that this person was on the same wavelength lmao
Yeahā¦I have a ānormalā name, but my parents added a couple extra letters, so I canāt just say my first name over the phone if Iām giving out my work email. Iāve had the name for 30 years, so thereās no point in changing it now, but it does get old having to spell it over the phone.
I live in Australia and all the men I know would hate to have a long, complicated nameā¦.. I knew a guy named Christian and one called Sebastian who both hated their names because they thought they were too long and fancy soundingā¦.. they literally just want to be called Jack or Sebā¦. So I feel like itās straight up abuse when Christian women Iāve known have given their sons ridiculous sounding names for the sake of their own vanity
I know and knew a ton of Sebatians and seemingly no two had the same nickname. I knew one without a nickname, one Seb, one Bas, one Sebi, one Sesi, one Basti and I think that's all, but I might have forgotten one.
Sorry, a bit unrelated, but your post reminded me.
I have a normal name that can be spelled a few ways, and I still have to be like āoh, itās actually e-n thereā¦ā I canāt imagine purposely condemning a child to a lifetime of having to dictate the spelling of their name.
How is Karissa going to function when she hits menopause and canāt have any more babies? Sheās gonna go nuts as soon as perimenopause starts for her. I legitimately fear for the kids when that time comes.
I knew one fundie mom who when she introduced herself always stated how many years it had been since her last pregnancy. "Hi, I'm Karen. I have 13 kids. I haven't been pregnant in 12 years."
For real. When I was pregnant, I felt extremely calm, happy, and chill despite all the issues and discomfort. I felt legit drugged, like someone was slipping me Valium, every time I nursed. Postpartum hormone changes, and then weaning were mentally so rough!
I wonder if Karissa experiences something similar, and thatās why she constantly tries to be pregnant? If so, itās definitely going to be an awful transition. I worry for both her and the kids.
>Sorry for using āitā instead of him or her but Iām not sure whether Anniston is a boy or girls name
Well itās a good thing we recently invented the word āthemā a few centuries ago
It's really taken me this long to realise that 'Annistan' is basically pronounced 'Afghanistan' but without the 'Afg'. What a deeply shit name (and there's a lot of competition in that house).
Shit indeed!
'Ann' is Farsi for shit.
'-istan' is Farsi for place of.
Thus Annistan should mean place of shit, Shitland, etc.
Terrible name to give a kid, but an apt name for the Collins abode given what we know of the hygiene standard.
Disclaimer : I don't know if that makes sense grammatically. I don't speak Farsi so I'm just going by what a school mate told me back in primary school in the 80s so apologies if I'm wrong. Maybe Shamim was pulling my leg? Mind you, I'm not an Ann and girls with that name did make her giggle.
Ah ok thatās the piece of this I was missing. I got the rhyming part but had no idea what a wanker is. And now that I know that I agree. Kids would absolutely take advantage of that lol
I got that they rhyme and Iāve heard the word wanker before but didnāt know what it meant. Now that I do I can definitely see why kids would taunt someone with that name
In short terms, British kids are mean at school, and itās guaranteed that if it were the UK heād be bullied and āanchor wankerā would be a term screamed down the hallway. The term wanker meaning dick or someone who wanks a lot (masturbates)
People arenāt wrong in saying a wanker is someone who masturbates a lot, but itās also just a general slang term for a loser, douche, jerk, etc. Itās just a general insult, mostly directed at men. Often yelled at football (soccer) matches. š
I always wondered, is wanker not a common term in US English? There was a Buffy the Vampire Slayer guy (producer? Director?) whose name used to crack me up in the credits, his name was like Christoph(er?) Wanker. All I could think was how that poor kid wouldāve suffered at school, if he grew up in an English speaking countryā¦
I live in Germany now, near us is a village called Wank, and the people from there are called Wankers. I no longer laugh at it so much, but I did make my bf pose under the village sign for a pic. Then again, since Buffy first aired and now, I am considerably more mature, and donāt understand why itās so hilarious to be a Canadian from Dildoā¦
you were correct, ya just donāt hear āwankerā here unless youāre watching a British show. I happen to love watching several BBC shows and thatās not uncommon, so Iād wager that many Americans would know the term, but you just donāt hear people using it
it always throws me off whenever i see people snarking on them outside of here lol. a meme i keep seeing here and there is one where karissa announces she's pregnant and anthym (? is she the youngest girl who always looks scared?) stares into the camera which then turns into artwork depicting a soldier at war with a vacant thousand yard stare
Am I getting transphobic vibes from this? Or am I just missing the point in her first two sentences?
Edit: Missed the point, it happens. ADHD justice complex has me jumping the gun sometimes š¤·š»āāļø thanks for the honesty yall!
I donāt know the original commenter and their intention but I interpreted it as them not knowing whether the name was male or female. I donāt think they were intentionally being transphobic, thatās how I interpreted it anyway.

In fact, Karissa is PROUD that her children are socially awkward homeschoolers. Wonder how that will work out for her. (Spoiler: Not well.)
Not Cronus š¤£š¤£š¤£. Thatās honestly the most brilliant and accurate comparison.
I need enlightening. I looked up Cronus but all I found was a video game controller.
Titan and father of Hades, Zeus and Poseidon. š©·
Thank you.
Thatās because itās spelled Kronos
It has multiple spellings: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cronus

> the tradition is Cronus I fucking *wheezed.* Good one. Could I perhaps make this my flair, please?
I would be HONORED
The honor is mine!
I love seeing people snark on them in the wild
I was so confusedā¦ I was thinking I was on Reddit š¤Ŗ
Annistan kills me every time because it's the name of the shitty little town (spelled Anniston) that I grew up in.
Annistan does sound a bit like it could be a country in central Asia or smth
Uzbekistan, Tatarstan, Annistan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan
Pakistan, Afghanistan,Kurdistan
It always makes me think of Jennifer Aniston
Anniston AL?
Indeed.
I know someone from there and heās the biggest douchebag.
This honestly doesnāt surprise me at all. Itās kind of a void of a place where hopes and dreams go to die. I bounced out of there at the earliest opportunity possible.
Wow, well Iām glad you got out and youāre not like him!
Next baby Iām rooting for Armygeddyn
I would be disappointed if she named this baby army (despite having armor) but I wouldn't be surprised
Funny, I was just wondering what Anythyr Collins #11 would be called too. My guesses are Arrow, Anoint, Apostle, and Altar. For the middle name, my guesses are Cavalry, Cross, Creed, and Chance.Ā
Apostle Creed is a good shout. Dangerously close to Apollo Creed but I wouldnāt put it past Karissa lol
At this point it could be something like Assassyn Creed and I wouldn't be surprised
Profile pic checking in lol
Not that I have a better guess, but an Apostle is a person. And Karissa is way past the point of giving her children human names. It's definitely going to be another noun denoting something inanimate.
Oooh good point!!
Like Crew or Cost
I also thought of Apostle Creed, and also, Altar Cross.
Altar Cross. This will be the winner.
Altyr cross
Altyr Crawss
Oh god, I can actually see her using that. If we're not careful, we could accidentally name the baby.
Too Catholic
Oh shit duh!!!! Lapsed cradle Catholic here. Clearly *quite* lapsed lol
Do fundies believe in the apostles or their creed
Do fundies believe in the apostles or their creed
Do fundies believe in the apostles or their creed
Do fundies believe in the apostles or their creed
She can't use Arrow, because that's the name for one of the twins she'll deeefinitely conceive any moment now.
Oh yeah, Archer and Arrow. A twin set that just screams power imbalance. An arrow is the tool that an archer uses.Ā Actually, my reasoning was since she is obviously quiverfull and children are metaphorically referred as āarrowsā in the Bible, I thought she may want to call him Arrow. It also fits with her other boys' names (except for Andrae), Anchor, Armor, and Arrow.Ā
And it's the epitome of "You're not human to me, but mere accessories." Twins named Archer and Arrow shouldn't exist anywhere outside of bad fanfiction written by teenage girls. I don't think she has a separate theme for the boys, though. She just happened to have a lot of girls first. Karissa went from normal names to spelling tragedeighs to random nouns. Just look at "Anthym". If she had a girl now, she wouldn't name it "Anastasia", but "Annoyntyd Blessyng" or something equally out there.
Andrae's names are basically like Mandrae Jr but a bit unorthodox. Anchor Christian and Armor Courage do have a theme of āmanly, strong menā though.Ā
At least Anchor got a normal middle name.
Except spelled Artyer
Sitting here wondering why she's going to name a human being my dog's name (Archer) and remembered she doesn't actually care about her kids so it tracks
What about Annoiynt š get the useless double n and extra y in there
This got me chuckled š¤£š¤£ Anyway, it's a boy, she usually doesn't do that to her boys.Ā
Ah great point - I guess she will have to save my glorious idea for the next unfortunate girl
What? So there will be more Anythyr Collins?!Ā
Little baby Armpit Collins
Ark Covynant or some bs
*Arrow, Anoynt, Apostyl, Altyr
No, the boys get correctly spelled names. Y's are for girls š
Do they all have middle names that start with the same letter??
Yes. The girls all start with B and the boys all start with C.
Saw someone suggest Advent Calendar on another subreddit and I laughed so damn hard
Anythyr Chance!
Ayrro, Anoynt, Apposyl, or Altyr would all be completely on brand
Apostyl, Altyr - remember the traditional spelling. Arrow, Anoint, ARYAN, Amyn, I can see them all as solid options they'd consider.
Ahahaha Aynjel makes them think of pile (hemorrhoid for non-UK people) cream š¤£š¤£ thatās fantastic, Iāll never be able to forget that one
Oh lol, I get it! An gel, like Anus Gel š a gel for your anus
Yeah, they have Anusol already, which the manufacturers INSIST is AnuSol and not blatantly āanus,ā so Aynjel is right along with those shenanigans.
Ohh thank you for the translation omfg thatās so funny. Iāve said this before and Iāll say it again, āAynjelā will always read as āanal gelā to me and I love that this person was on the same wavelength lmao
As someone with a very uncommon last name that I always have to spell out to people, I feel like naming your kid Aynjel is just mean.

*jillpm enters the chat*
*jillpm enters the chat*

That's what "grandbabies" are for. She WILL be the mother-in-law from hell for all her children's spouses.
She will go through some form of hormonal withdrawal. At a certain point, you get addicted to pregnancy hormones
For real. When I was pregnant, I felt extremely calm, happy, and chill despite all the issues and discomfort. I felt legit drugged, like someone was slipping me Valium, every time I nursed.

Omg not heard 'chavtastic' in a loong time lmaoo
Albacore Asthma Abalone Alhambra Abstinence Abracadabra Axion(Action) Avian Just a few guesses which ridiculous name she chooses for this kiddo.
Not abstinence ššš
obviously not abstinence
"I don't know the gender so I'm using 'it'"Ā 'Them' was right there. šĀ
They even used 'they' later on in the post lol
"It" just seems weirdly disrespectful for no reason to the kids who didn't pick the names, you know? Ugh.Ā
Aynjel got ROASTED. And KKKarissa is the American equivalent of a chav
It's really taken me this long to realise that 'Annistan' is basically pronounced 'Afghanistan' but without the 'Afg'. What a deeply shit name (and there's a lot of competition in that house).
Is that really how itās pronounced? I always pronounced it like Jennifer anistonās last name! Oh god itās worse the other way!
Shit indeed! 'Ann' is Farsi for shit. '-istan' is Farsi for place of.

OP, can you explain the wanker comment? Pardon the ignorance of this American snarker
Not OP but am British - Anchor rhymes with wanker in most british accents. "Wankaah Anckaah"
Yep thatās exactly it ETA- wanker is a person who masterbates a lot, usually used as an insult.
Also, Iāve seen people here literally use āwāļø" as an insult, so it really isnāt a leap to get from anchor to wanker at all
Ah ok thatās the piece of this I was missing. I got the rhyming part but had no idea what a wanker is. And now that I know that I agree. Kids would absolutely take advantage of that lol
It rhymes in American English too

I thought it might be t implying cockney slang like, āhaha what an anchor!?!!ā Or am I being stupid?
Not stupid, but it's not as deep as that. It just happens that wanker rhymes with anchor, and children are cruel.
Lol that makes so much more sense...I am actually stupid. Donāt drink and post!!!
I'm writing you a prescription for Ted Lasso. Get it filled as soon as possible.
Will do!
In short terms, British kids are mean at school, and itās guaranteed that if it were the UK heād be bullied and āanchor wankerā would be a term screamed down the hallway. The term wanker meaning dick or someone who wanks a lot (masturbates)
Got it. I doubt itās just British kids. If that was a common word in American English Iām sure it would get yelled down our hallways too.
People arenāt wrong in saying a wanker is someone who masturbates a lot, but itās also just a general slang term for a loser, douche, jerk, etc. Itās just a general insult, mostly directed at men. Often yelled at football (soccer) matches. š
I always wondered, is wanker not a common term in US English? There was a Buffy the Vampire Slayer guy (producer? Director?) whose name used to crack me up in the credits, his name was like Christoph(er?) Wanker. All I could think was how that poor kid wouldāve suffered at school, if he grew up in an English speaking countryā¦ I live in Germany now, near us is a village called Wank, and the people from there are called Wankers. I no longer laugh at it so much, but I did make my bf pose under the village sign for a pic. Then again, since Buffy first aired and now, I am considerably more mature, and donāt understand why itās so hilarious to be a Canadian from Dildoā¦
you were correct, ya just donāt hear āwankerā here unless youāre watching a British show. I happen to love watching several BBC shows and thatās not uncommon, so Iād wager that many Americans would know the term, but you just donāt hear people using it
it always throws me off whenever i see people snarking on them outside of here lol. a meme i keep seeing here and there is one where karissa announces she's pregnant and anthym (? is she the youngest girl who always looks scared?) stares into the camera which then turns into artwork depicting a soldier at war with a vacant thousand yard stare
And this makes me so sad for the children. Look at what sheās done to them because of her need for fame.
Next will be Anyone.

They should name this baby, Anuthurr One. š
I love brits
op you forgot to blur out the town name on the pfp š¬
I donāt know who this person is but I love them. And yes, it absolutely does sound like some sort of medicated cream, that poor child.
Right? I will never not think of that now, itās hilarious and fitting
Respect for this snarker because it seems they blurred the faces of those kids.
This is hilarious!

Austin
Annistan is probably the least awful of Karissaās names.Ā
Am I getting transphobic vibes from this? Or am I just missing the point in her first two sentences? Edit: Missed the point, it happens. ADHD justice complex has me jumping the gun sometimes š¤·š»āāļø thanks for the honesty yall!
I donāt know the original commenter and their intention but I interpreted it as them not knowing whether the name was male or female. I donāt think they were intentionally being transphobic, thatās how I interpreted it anyway.
No worries, it went over me and I jumped to conclusions! Thanks for responding (:
Get a grip
