Jail is worse than war


LOLOL excuse me?!?! I couldn't believe Ashleigh said that!! I was totally on her side with how Zach's been treating her, but after she said THAT, it was obvious she's pretty melodramatic.

reply

Yeah that was so stupid lol.. She must be so sheltered or something. That jail isn't even bad.

Alas... how terrible is wisdom when it brings no profit to the wise?

reply

Ya the way she keeps going on about how this is the hardest thing she's ever done is starting to grate. Every time she says that I yell 'WELL LEAVE THEN!' Lol you aren't actually a prisoner hun, go home to your baby.

reply

Yeah I know eh, but shes greedy and want the money! lol

i get where shes coming from as far as her having a jerk for a husband, but like he said she knew how he was when she married him. Also, she knew how bad it was when he volunteered so why volunteer knowing you've got a new baby to take care of? That's what makes me see her as a really stupid human being.

Going to jail and suffering is not a way to come to terms with your inner demons.

has it ever been mentioned how long they have been married? His comment made me think perhaps they have not been married very long.
He is certainly acting like a jerk..but damn, she is getting on my nerves!!
She contends that she entered the program to reenforce her sobriety (which just seems stupid, since there are other ways to go about that) then wants to cry and moan that the inmates have drugs, and how hard it is to stay away from it. Seems to me that someone in recovery wouldn't put themselves in that situation, but instead would surround themselves with other recovering addicts so they could draw strength from them. I could be wrong, I am not an addict nor have I been to jail/prison but it just doesn't seem like a smart thing to do.

AGREED!! good point!

I can't die! I have 43 twitter followers that depend on me! oh, and I have a daughter.

I don't know how long they've been married, but they both seem too immature for marriage or having a baby. You'd think the baby's needs would be the first thing they'd talk about. But the baby is the issue for me. What new mother with an infant son would choose to sign up to be away from the child?

i can't feel sorry for her or relate to her thinking because of that. She didn't have to do this at all. Even if it were a money issue and they were paid to participate, would think she'd wait until the baby is a toddler or older.

She's just like Sheri and Moanalisa. They signed up for it knowing it was going to be horrible and can't stop complaining when it is.

reply

oh yeah! I agree. They do seem immature, and who would walk away from a new baby to do this??
It makes me think back to when our kids were babies. My husband was active duty, and was constantly gone (early 90's, when there was money for constant training, both in and out of the country). He hated every minute of it! (come to think of it..she is probably getting paid for this way more than my husband was as a Pvt back then..lol) He missed so many "firsts". Words, steps, smiles, airplane/roadtrip. first visit to the circus, even missed his first birthday AND our first anniversary. It tore him up. After the initial enlistment, he reclassed to a different MOS so that he wouldn't be gone as much or as often. Then 9/11 happened....ugh.
I lean towards her doing this for the money not to reenforce sobriety, especially since they said numerous times that Zac was out of work and had no income. Didn't they also say they were living with one of their parents? So even if she only did two or three episodes she would still have earned a chunk of cash to help get on their feet.

Yeah, it's got to be about the money. Or she's the dumbest person walking the earth.

reply

I was seriously thinking her husband was a supreme jerk until I heard her make that statement. Maybe he's so apparently insensitive because he has to deal with that mentality all the time. Couple that with whatever ACTUALLY happened when she discharged his firearm and, wow. War is war! Nothing can compare to that. What an IDIOT.

reply

Ya I sense a lot of passive agressiveness coming from Zach. And a lot of resentment. It's like on his season he used to talk highly of her because she wasn't around. But now that we're hearing their phone calls he just can't hold it in LOL.

reply

Zach IS a douche, but seriously! As if that country club is worse than war. She's very melodramatic, and the fact that she volunteered to go there with a new baby, just shows how self centred she really is.

It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog

My brother-in-law was field artillery in Desert Storm. He would have gladly done a stint in jail instead of what he had to go through. For Asleigh to make such a statement is totally ridiculous. Yes, I know jail is hard... but it's nothing -- not even in the same HEMISPHERE -- as being under fire in a war zone.

Shooting has started on my latest movie: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5531336/

Zach came out of Season 1 looking pretty good, but since Season 2, he has really come off like an unstable dork. Between the wacky phone conversations with his druggie wife (who flashes her ass on command) and nearly coming to blows with that wimp from the first season, he's not looking good at all. He needs to cut ties with the show, his loser wife probably should too.

reply

Yeah, I was on her side until she said that.
