i am doing my best to put up every blog comment that is posted.
but i don’t plan to post the outrageously nasty ones for a while.
who does it serve to post those?
like the show or don’t. like the tv clip or don’t.
but overt and uncalled for nastiness? i just don’t want to deal with right now.
one day i hope to have a strong enough sense of self to not let those kinds of comments bother me.

Dave says
Ignore them, Jennifer. The clip is fantastic and extremely entertaining. Great concept. Just be yourself. What Alexis read yesterday about people who write nasty things while hiding behind emails and comments on blogs is true. Keep up the great work. Hang in there!
Sali says
I am glad you are not going to post every nasty comment…I wish you wouldn’t give the haters so much airtime either! Even when you were posting all the nasty stuff it seemed the majority of the blog comments were positive…focus on the good stuff. Besides, people should be able to come up with a more intelligent way to express their feelings than just name calling or lowblows. You guys rock!
tracey says
Whatever, Martha looks awesome!! I can’t wait to watch. You look so beautiful in the clip.
Don’t let the jealous haters keep you down or ruin your day. I know this is easier said than done but people who would make nasty comments like that are nothing but jealous of you. You are a gorgeous person and the inside and outside!
pamela says
Good for you! The people who are saying nasty things have nothing going on in their own lives. YOU are actually doing something, while the haters are doing nothing but being critics. (hiding behind their computers) Let the haters hate, as you live a creative and fufilling life!!!!
Jane says
Hey…a little off topic but wondering about any info on when I can hear you and Alexis on XM radio… i thought I heard that merger went through????
bifty in PA says
Jennifer, I thought the TV clip was hysterical, I laughed right out loud! You and Alexis play beautifully off one another and when you put the ribbonms in your hair and Alexis looked up at you, it was perfect!
maggie says
I’m glad to hear that…I know some will get annoyed, but it’s your blog and you should post what you want. There is a difference between being critical and being downright nasty. I can’t wait to see the new show. Keep smiling as much as you can. 🙂
Jamie says
Jenny,
I do think it is you who needs to develop a better sense of self. I think the people who waste their time and effort to bash you on YOUR Blog have some serious issues of their own to confront.
Rock on!
az4758 says
It’s YOUR blog…post what you want, when you want and don’t aplologize for it!
Whatever is Alexis and Jennifer…if someone doesn’t have something nice to say, you don’t have to put it out there.
You guys rock, you do a fantastic job, you post negative comments, but posting the rude, obnoxious ones does not seem necessary and it doesn’t matter what state you are in or what sense of self you have. No need for people to be rude…they can listen to anything they want…if they are so negative they should in your words..SUCK IT!
Look every first show is rough says
It will get better as it goes along.
I myself have been reading about the miracle tea
Wu Yu Tea OOLONG tea/
it is supposed to help me reduce?
I hope it does cuz i oredered like 300 f n tea bags…
If you order some go to a online herb place cuz the one that i first saw wanted a ton of cash for those damn tea bags!
I think it helps me lose weight from not putting sugar & cream in it like i do reg tea?
F those haters…
look i defend both you girls cuz i have listened to your show since ya all started it.
I get it some folks don’t so yes i say Jenny
I say Lexie and F anybody who do not like it ok?
Luv to ya all over there in NY
Damn i may be the only one able to win Lexie’s old phone?
I hate everybody said: says
If you hate everybody then when somebody is nice it kinda makes you not hate everybody see?
look Jen,
There are more nasty jealous folks out there than nice sweet ones.
Think about it this way too..
ok so it is harder to be the most popular girl in school right?
So hey i wasn’t and yes i would like to have been but that’s life…
she had to screw the whole football team to get there we didn’t see?
Mar says
Don’t let people get to you. People’s nasty comments is no more that jealousy and feelings of inferiority being expressed in ignorant comments. This is the BEGINNING of the show, and it will only get better as you film more episodes. I have so many friends who do not even have Sirius yet looking through your blogs and getting excited about the show. xoxo
Jennifer? says
I just remembered something girl!
Does your mom [ yes i use present tense] have a favorite plant in her yard/
a tree/
a flower/
a bush?
Go over your parent’s house.
Ask a gardener how to start a plant of your own from one of hers.
plant it in your yard and also make a plant to nuture inside your home..
See/
life will be better if you have a plant started from your mom”s favorite plant..
Did she have a japanese maple?
Or a bed of tulips ?
Favorite rose bush?
Grapevine?
take clippings from all of them and maybe martha can help you start a cutting or a graft from it?
I did this from my Granny’s Pear Tree
we all did.
The tree she nurtured is living on down through the family for generations.
Do this and you will grow too..
the whole family needs to grow some plant or flower Mother had..and loved..
can you do this?
If you can healing will begin…
Matt V says
Good for you!!!!!
duffy says
Yeah, for all intents and purposes, I was cracking up watching the clip. I mean, CRACKING UP. People who write nasty comments have no lives. It all comes back to them. Don’t let it get to you.
I have this guy friend who is covered in tattoos. If he’s driving and gets honked at by some a-hole, his favorite thing to do is to blow them a kiss. It just throws the a-hole off. I think it’s such a good reaction.
Eric says
It would be a pretty boring life if we didn’t judge/criticize and share our thoughts and observations with each other. Certainly it is understood that blogs rely on feedback to gauge their success and effectiveness. As with all forums, there are appropriate ways to convey your feedback and opinions. I see no benefit to post hostile messages of displaced anger, this aggression is not about you or your blog partner. I might also point out, in my opinion, the “oh my god you are a goddess of all things” is also kinda sad. Hero worship is also displaced adoration, and when you discover human traits you are deflated and feel betrayed. Maybe these are just two really intelligent interesting women who share things in an amusing and unique way??
camille says
it’s your blog, jennifer; post the comments you want. i agree, there’s no need for you to post the nasty comments. you shouldn’t have to deal with them at any time, regardless of your sense of self. (((hugs)))
joann says
jen, you do NOT have to post negative, evil comments! The people that post these are just jealous of you.
Laura in Arkansas says
Cool. “The Exorcist: Whatever” – keep them out Jennifer, we nice people are depending on you to save us from the out stretched hands of evil commenters. Just touch your monitor and yell, while the powerful wind blows, “the power of Alexis and Jennifer compels you!!” And all the evil commenters hiss on the other side cause they can’t get in to harm us. (don’t be fooled by the calm, there’s always a random blow- fly lurking somewhere) It is true though what Eric said, all the posts don’t have to be full of worship for the show or you two but there really is no need for out right hateful stuff. I think you’re doing a great job and I love you, lol –
ws says
you need to ball up.. dont put it out there if you cant take it. it cant all be good.. cost of doing business. dont whine. bake your way out ala alexis..
Jennifer ? said IS RIGHT ABOUT THE PLANTS!!!! says
My aunts and I have african violets and ferns and ivys all started originially from my great great grandmother. Same with peonies, lambs ear, many many bulbs, peach trees, apple trees, etc…. They are CHERISHED and every time you either clip a flower or enjoy fruit you think of them.
MM says
Great idea Jen, leave the haters off, enjoy what you have with your family, friends and career and ignore the losers.
egaspard says
Love the clip. You came off as playful and entertaining. Whatever is not the same when you’re not there. I love your laugh and the perky way you say “Word of the week.”
Donna in AZ says
It only serves the nasty people to post the negative comments. Get rid of them. Nobody needs that negativity! It’s your blog! Censor the a-holes.
I enjoy whatever you put up. Love the show. Llove you and Alexis!
barb from az says
That’s the best thing to do…Ignore them. Because they are Ignorant. I sure wouldn’t waste the precious time I have on earth dwelling on something I hated. Why oh why do some people take joy in hurting others? Let’s not give them power!!! Love ya!
Tina says
Love your blog! Love Alexis and your show! Can’t wait for Whatever, Martha!!! BTW love her too! How’s that for happy!!! On a more somber note, so sorry about your mother. I lost my dad a few years ago when he was only 55. You heal but you never stop missing them. Hope your healing begins soon and you can remember the good things and let the hospital memories fade….
Annie says
jen,take it from a 50-year old! It gets soooo much easier to let negative comments just roll off. Who the f cares! Life is too short and enjoy it while you’re here. You’re a beautiful person inside and out!
Tom says
Leave the negative comments in please Jen.
They spice up the blog and give us someone to turn our anger against.
Too much nice nice is just sickening all the time.
Lynne says
Considerimg all of the hell that you’ve been through, it takes the lowest scum of the earth to take a pot shot at you. It just goes to show that pure assholes do exist. The problem is they are getting off on this. Hitting people when they’re down is disgusting. I thought you and Alexis did a great job with Whatever Martha. I won’t be able to see it because our cable doesn’t carry it. Hopefully I’ll see on the website.
Jennifer, please try to ignore these jerks. Those of us that have come to know and care for you…we’ve got your back, and so does Alexis!
Sabrina says
Alexis was totally right yesterday, my 11 year old son was totally flamed a couple of weeks ago on youtube by a 20 year old. The guy was so mean and insulting it was crazy and it totally blew my son away. I said the same thing to him that it was only because this other person had no contact and never would, this kid lives in England. You guys are great and the clip is hysterical.
jenny hutt says
i will post MOST of the comments including negative ones..just not the ridiculously mean for no reason ones. it’s not that i cannot handle someone not liking me..let me rephrase that, even though it is really difficult for me to handle someone’s not liking me i am willing to post such a comment! it’s just when it is over the top and meant to cause pain that i don’t want to post it.
lil says
great idea to block nasty bloggers…now, how about the bkb’s (butt kissing bloggers)…..they are almost as bad and certainly more boring 🙂
Liz on LI says
Jennifer..you shouldn’t care at all what complete/jerky strangers think of you. What matters is the people close to you. Fvck the others.. 😎
ekhukill says
I have been wanting to write but just had time to check your blog this week.When i was 38 my mom passed away 18 years ago and I missed her so much for a long time and was lonely for her. But for about 17 years I feel her nearer and nearer to me with every day that goes by. You will too.
SynchronizedSwimmer says
Do you have a pool? Do you have access to a pool? Do you swim in the pool? I think you should start swimming each day and just enjoy your pool time. And naps nothing wrong with a power nap. Also make sure your batteries are charged because your photos are great.
Kim from Seagrave ON says
Jennifer – if people don’t like what you have to say or what you look like – they can turn off the radio or close the video on your web site – no one is forcing them to listen or watch – and didn’t their mother’s tell them that if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything.
Keep laughing, it’s good for you!
Haleigh says
Post “whatever” you want! You are awesome and ADORABLE!!
xxxxxooooooo
Haleigh
Erin from Pittsburgh says
Yay! Jennifer! I don’t want to read the nasty, mean stuff. Nothing wrong about different opinions except when they serve no purpose other than hate. Let’s keep this to the interesting, thoughtful people who are either fans who get it or people who can express themselves intelligently while disagreeing with something.
Sally says
Jennifer,
I think you are hurt by people making cutting remarks because you are a good person, you know you are, and cannot comprehend why these idiotic strangers waste their time and venom trying to hurt you. It is not logical thinking on their part, which I am sure you understand. We attorneys suffer from logical thinking overload.
There are lots of psychotic people out there who like no one, so taking it personally wastes your time, energy and emotions. As Alexis would say, they are bitter effs.
My Mother always says the best way to handle these type of people is to ignore them, it makes them crazy. Cut them out of your life. Life is too short to live it under a microscope and worry about the opinions of total strangers, who probably have miserable lives and enjoy venting their spleens.
They just live their lives to get them over with, pathetic creatures really.
Chin up kiddo, you’ll get through this.
Bernadette says
I love the radio show- always a treat and super entertaining. I think you take your job very seriously and I think that it really shows! I say it everyday–people are freaks-so really are you surprised! Keep up the great entertaining!
Tedde - Julie says
It’s your Blog, Your Choice. I would prefer NOT to read the nasty ones. 🙂
OBAMA/BIDEN aka leo says
The ass-kissers are just as annoying as the haters.
Brian says
You better leave Jennifer alone – I will beat a bitch!
(This kitty’s got claws!)
Annette in FL says
Jennifer you should know that you are a wonderful person and you guys do a great show and make my drive home so enjoyable for me everyday – to hell with them.
Most of my friends don’t have Sirius so they aren’t familiar with your radio show but I have been spreading the word about the TV show and everyone thinks it sounds like a great idea.
Jaymi says
Why is it we can hear 100 great things about ourselves, and then hear 1 bad thing and that is all we think about?? Jennifer, I’m thrilled about the new show. I liked the clip very much, and I’m upgrading my Dish Network to include Fine Living just for the show. It’s an awesome concept and I will TIVO every episode. Good for you for not posting the crap comments – there is no point.
Jess says
the clip looks great- I cannot wait to see the show. Thanks for the preview.
Big Pete says
I think I should tie those motherfuckers to the bumper of my Peterbilt and drag em around for about 1800 miles then we will see how nasty they are…tenfour?
Camille says
Some blogging software allows moderators to de-vowel choice posts, leaving the nasty comments more or less… deflated. Serves the same purpose as simply not posting them, but is much more satisfying for the moderator, no doubt and far more bemusing for the readers.
You guys should get that!
Bearzimages.com says
I’m always astounded, it seems there’s never a shortage of freelance putzes, willing to play solitaire of wits in public. Don’t listen to the blue meanies, just keep doing whatever makes you happy.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH says
Can we still post about STARFISH?????? huh,, can we?????
Jane M says
GOOD ANSWER! It ‘s your blog – and who needs MORE nastiness?!!!!
Erica from Ohio says
I, for one, am glad. You’re not the only one who doesn’t enjoy reading these asshole comments from losers who feel so crappy about themselves that they feel the need to slay others with their words on the internet. Cowards!
Thanks, Jennifer!
ws says
i will say one thing thats super cool and a good instinct.. that you actually post negative stuff shows that you CAN deal and its a big vote of confidence from all of us- who face it- are fans despite negative comments.. but agreed– bullshit like “cut that hair” or “someone looks too fat” should require a photo from the people who post cause THAT is simply lame..
Linda the other one here says
jennifer I do not want to read bad comments..
I am a peace loving lady myself…
negative comments and stuff makes me depressed and hell who needs that?
jaybee says
you were so frigging cute swinging those ribbons around!
keep up the good work lovely.
Stacy says
People who post negative crap just suck. They can have an opinion, but I hate nasty. I think the show looks like fun. I know lots of people (even non Whatever listeners) who plan to tune in. I think it is a great idea and I love Martha and you guys so it should be fun.
Nick says
Jennifer, let the naysayers be damned! There is something to be said about your joyous childlike spontaneity. It’s refreshing to see such a free spirit. (All the while going through your own personal tragedy.) Your willingness to give it a shot and then cut loose with the dance was priceless. Alexis is perfect as the adult, keeping the ribbon rose project as on track as is possible, interjecting her sharp & incisive remarks. I know that all of the shows have been taped and I hope that clip is a good indication of what’s to come.
kathlic kristin says
outrageously nasty comments. are you kidding me? if they don’t like something why do they even bother coming here? I mean I don’t like Bill O’Reilly (just as an example), and have NEVER been to his site. same with plenty of other people. If people make all the effort to come here and leave you an outrageously nasty post, it’s because they truly want your attention.
Honestly why would someone bother. I am glad you’re not posting them. negative or positive, if they can’t add something meaningful to the discussion, eff em.
Alessandra says
The show is tongue in cheek humor…I found it quite enjoyable. Can’t wait to see how you stuff a Thanksgiving turkey or your version of decorating a Christmas tree. Oh, and Halloween should be a hoot!
I do think that there is a place for constructive criticism and I don’t mind a little dig now and then…but enough of downright mean posts. I mean what purpose do they serve except to provide a forum for some miserable nut case. (Oh, I guess that was mean…sorry!).
Sandy says
Hey Jen like others have said ignore them your not here to please them! your beautiful inside and out and dont let anyone tell you different!
KC says
You guys are great! I have been looking forward to the tv show. Can’t wait to watch. Jennfier, just be yourself. You are gorgeous, smart and funny. Quite a package! fyi- love Alexis’ hair color.
Amy says
Jen, as far as the detractors, who ever said that being adult meant that you always had to act uptight and boring? I love your silliness and fun-loving nature. The two of you make a very entertaining duo. I loved the clip and I’m sorry that I don’t get FLN. I hope that the shows will be available through their website.
Dresden Disney-Dior says
Bitter eff? Gawd, I can’t read either. All this time, I thought Alexis was taking about a “bitter elf.” DUH!
Tammy says
Screw the haters! You’re terrific.
Heather says
Jennifer, I hope you never post the hateful comments. Even if you got to a point where you didn’t care (and you shouldn’t), I still don’t want to read them. When I first entered the blogosphere I struggled with the concept of censorship, but then I read on another blog: “hate mail will be cheerfully deleted.” or something to that effect, and I’ve felt better about ever since. If you post the hate mail, it just means the hater didn’t totally waste his/her time, and encourages them and others to do it again. The world DOES NOT need that!
LOTW Christine says
I concur. There’s enough hate in the world as it is.
Here’s something to cheer you up –

Dear Jennifer
My partner of 19 years, lost his Mom last week,unexpectedly, which turned both our worlds upside down in a moment. She truly was an important and loving part of our lives, I think of you when I see him struggle with his heart wrenching grief, was there anything anyone said at all that lessened the pain you must continue to suffer? I feel so helpless. We both got a great feeling when the card with the bunny I sent your Mom made it to a photo on your blog. Wishing you peace
Sunshine says
You know the one everyone hated, that had good intentions. Jennifer, for every comment that is negative, blow it off. It just means you have become successful
How does that feel. Great I hope. Post everything, if you have read it,your feelings have already been hurt. So just go for it, I am sure your family is extremely proud of you. So why let negative bloggers run your life, You look great, you are strong, you just feel slightly vulnerable now. Have a good holiday, relax and sit with the life guard or Keith…(that was to make you smile)
Ray says
Jennifer, my wife and I loved the clip and we both thought you looked very cute. Love the show. I often have to make a 3 hour plus drive in the afternoon between offices in Indiana and Kentucky and Alexis and you are what gets me through the drive with my humor intact.
Lisa in Hawaii says
I like what someone else said about not visiting sites of people one doesn’t like. I mean, why go there? I dig coming to your site because it’s real, even with the bad ones. I did go to someone’s site that I absolutely abhor and talk about censorship! What’s the name of that outrageously nasty republican bee-atch with the blond hair… Ann Coulter. What a piece of shee-at… er, work. You can go to her site but you cannot diss her. You have to register before you can say anything –presumably so she can send the Blue Meanies after you if you say anything the queen B doesn’t like?
Now that’s censorship! Imagine a world under HER rule!
But back to your blog, I think a person has the right to do whatever she wants with her own page. It might not be a completely realistic picture if one only posts the positive upbeat ones, but hey, has Jennifer ever been accused of being Pollyanna-ish? At least you don’t require the name, rank and serial number of everyone who visits your blog!
I was having a bit of fun sparring with a guy on Alexis’ blog a while back, but as a rule don’t like to surround myself with negative energy. Who does?
Have a great Labor Day!
joann says
jen, you are a tough cookie! The comments from these morons who say mean and hateful things are to SLIDE right off your back. They are jealous of your marriage, your kids, your success, your show, etc. Total idiots. Ignore them. Here is a thought for all of them: THEY ARE NOT IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO RUIN YOUR DAY!
Gonna be a long weekend says
since Monday is the actual holiday
hey posters peoples…
Where is Caylee Marie Anthony
from FLORIDA?
wear a pink balloon for her support…
any Florida listeners out here in Whatever land?
Janet says
Jennifer you are so damn cute. I listen to you guys daily on the way home from work and that giggle of yours get me to laugh and smile. U laugh from the pit of your stomach I love your sense of humor. Keep it up. Laughter is the best medicine. Thank you
Big Pete says
Did someone say starfish?????
sarah k says
You were a great daughter and will always have the good memories as well
Listener Frank says
In the interest of creating a pleasant world for everyone, just “Fuck the Nasty Commenters!!!”
You know, a good round of knitting can smother seething hatred in no time. I think the meanies need to take a field trip to Purl.
