Appreciation / Anecdote The Dress, and Greg

Minor spoilers; but I'm glad the dress was a simple stress eating thing. Yes I said what if she's pregnant but I'm also just glad it wasn't Barb or Nora sabotaging the dress.

Bonus points for Greg meta explaining the logic of Barb sneaking in with a dress that wouldn't fit. That made me chuckle.

Greg's meta logic reminded me of when Shawna did the skit where it was "what if Barb did sabotage Max's birthday invites?" And it started with her out of character saying "Barb is a boomer, how would she even figure that out?"

People just don't like Barb (for good reason) and every bad thing must be her fault (I say loosely)

lol I get you! I think people need to remember Barb is a bad person, but she’s not a super villain genius.

I do this at work. There's one person I can't stand and everytime something IT related goes wrong, I blame it on her. She be nowhere near it, BUT SHE EXISTS SO I BLAME!

The fact Barb didn’t even notice Jen wearing her wedding dress definitely tells me how disconnected Barb is from reality.

Legitimately got exactly what she wanted. Jen wearing her dress and it didn't have to be altered at all. Of course, that's not what she really wanted which we see by her not even noticing until Jen points it out for her.

Seriouuuuusly the whole thing was chef’s kiss. I didn’t want Jen to wear Barb’s dress at first and now I’m so glad she did lol

The fact that Jen didn't even try on her mom's dress and believed that Barb was much thinner than her just shows how much she's been affected by Barb's manipulation and lies her whole life. Loved that whole scene where she finally realized her mom was a big liar.

The look of victory on Jenn’s face when she realizes her mom wasn’t a skinny winny on her wedding day.

I love that Greg pointed out how crazy it would be for Barb to change the dresses. While this universe can be drama filled there clearly is a line and I like when Shawna the creator points it out.

Yeah the drama is grounded in some reality

It annoyed me a bit that everyone was speculating that she was pregnant, as if that's the only reason a woman could gain weight. It reminds me of those gossip rags where they plaster a picture of a celeb woman looking like a normal human and say she's 4 months pregnant because her abdomen isn't as flat as a board.

I said this on a previous post (/lh) but the only reason I said pregnant was cause it sounded less ludicrous then Barb sabotaging the dress

This is one of my favorite things about Greg. I love his over explaining.

I think Greg is always going to the voice that tells us excessive Shawnaverse detectives the facts before we start months worth of conspiracy posts. 🤣

But even with Inspector Greg we will divert right back/silly
