These days, there’s a lot of crazy stuff going on The Land — that patch of sinking prefab outbuildings that Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans and her husband, David Eason, weirdly take a tremendous amount of pride in.
We know, there’s always crazy stuff going on in Jenelle and David’s lives, but lately, these two have really been outdoing themselves.
There have been assault accusations, use of heavy artillery, and visits from the Secret Service .
But just when we think Jenelle and David have participated in every kind of bonkers behavior imaginable, they go and surprise us with something completely out of left field.
Something like this week’s bizarre video in which David spanks Jenelle while the two of them get soused in broad daylight.
Take a look:
The Easons Saying that Jenelle and David are a bit of an odd couple would be putting it very, very mildly.
Strange Times on The Land The Easons have always attracted the attention of CPS, local law enforcement, and millions of TM2 fans who think MTV subsidizing an abusive situation.
Too Much Time on His Hands These days, Eason is creeping up on a year of unemployment, having been canned by MTV following a homophobic social media tirade back in February of 2018.
Acting Out And unfortunately, during that time, he’s devoted himself to two main pursuits — spending Jenelle’s money and thirsting for attention on social media.
The Theory Some folks think David resents Jenelle’s role as the household’s sole breadwinner and that he’s trying to get her fired from Teen Mom 2.
Too Much Credit We don’t think there’s that much going on in David’s skull, however. In fact, we’re pretty sure he’s just doing whatever he can to score the attention of the masses. Case in point …
The Spank Yes, David posted this video on Instagram on Sunday afternoon. No, it wasn’t a late Saturday night post. This was Sunday. After. Noon.
Why? Needless to say, fans reacted with utter bafflement … and a fair bit of disgust.
Speaking the Truth “Sadly he doesn’t [know] what respect is or means,” wrote one user.
Big Mood (MTV) “I’m so confused by this…also embarrassed,” commented another follower.
What’s the Intention? “This is really disturbing. Like he is trying to humiliate her,” remarked a third fan.
Timing Is Everything Other fans were quick to point out that the timing of the video is more than a little strange.
She-Shed Jenelle and David are very clearly in Jenelle’s “she-shed,” a place where they go to “party” once the kids are in bed.
The “Bed” Part Is Crucial (Getty) But this video was clearly shot during the daytime.
“Sober,” Eh? Also, Jenelle and David appear to be drinking in this clip, which would be fine — were it not for her long history of substance abuse and frequent claims that she’s sober.
Flexible Definition Jenelle has admitted that she still drinks “moderately” — but there’s a big difference between a glass of wine at dinner and sneaking off to the she-shed to pound some brews in the middle of the day.
Drunk and Dramatic (2015 Bruce Glikas) Jenelle dismissed the October altercation that led to the cops being called to her house and her being hospitalized as a “drunk and dramatic misunderstanding.” You’d think she and Dave would both go easy on the sauce after something like that.
Jace Day The clip is especially odd, considering Jenelle’s son Jace was visiting this past weekend and was presumably on The Land while this video was being shot.
It’s All Relative It’s all pretty tame compared to some of the stuff Jenelle and David have gotten into lately. After all, it won’t require a visit from federal authorities.
Even So… But considering these two are constantly fighting to maintain custody and visitation rights, you’d think they’d keep this sort of thing off social media. Just sayin’.
