  • This made me actually out loud snort.

    Yay! Congratulations! The fact that you are both willing to work on things is huge and every marriage has struggles. Now you have an extra reason to work through things and make your marriage solid for your little one. Hoping for the best for you guys!

    Every relationship has it's struggles, y'all. Stealing from your parents and lying to you is no big, really. CONGRATS!!!!

  • I read the first line and knew what was coming . . .

    So maybe certain Bump boards require lack of brain cells instead of the crazycakes gene? 

  • If you sell what you steal, is that still kleptomania?  It seems more like compulsive easy-money-getting than compulsive stealing.

  • I wonder if Hallmark makes a card for the occasion - "I'm sorry your husband is stealing from your dad, but OMG, yay for your pregnancy" 

    We'll have to wait about a year to figure out how they'll be handling the custody issue.

  • Holy hell.  I have to say, if anybody here came out with, "Oh noes, my husband is stealing from his employer/my parents and selling the $hit...YAY!  We're pregnant!" I don't think I could be all that positive.

    These women have their heads in baby clouds.

    Interesting question! Further down in the post someone Googles it to tell her no, kleptomania has nothing to do with financial gain.

    Well, is kleptomania defined by the thrill of it? Maybe he steals for the high, and then thought, "Well, I have all this crap, so I might as well make a buck or two." Or maybe he wants to get rid of the evidence? 

  • CONGRATS!!!!!!!!! Every marriage has its rough spots. GL!

    Every marriage has it's rough spots guys.  We all catch our husbands stealing from our parents.  Twice.  That's obviously the best time to try to have a baby.

  • I don't know why she bothered getting pregnant.  Her H could have just stolen them a baby instead.

  • G-bus.  Maybe I really am a stone cold biitch because I just don't get how you get past some things.  Stealing from my family, especially after my dad gave you a job, is one of them.

  • It seems she is Mormon. Since her dad owns hardware stores, I'm picturing her dad as Bill Henrickson.

  • I am getting such a kick of the "Yayeeeeeeeeee!  Congrats on making a baybee!!  H&H 9 months! <3!!!" posts interspersed between the "This is a terrible idea.  Good job, dummy" type posts.

    I WAS TOO.

    You are both obviously committed to working through it, and no marriage is perfect.

    How are they so obviously committed? By saying they will, and then deciding to bring a child into the world instead of dealing with the problem head on?

  • So, this is probably a dumb thing to focus on, but in one of their siggies is this:

    "The brontosaurus may have never existed, but Gerry the TTGP dildosaurus lives on. "

    First of all, what the hell is she talking about with the first part of that statement?  I'm pretty sure there's no debate about the brontosaurus existing, right?  Second of all, I don't get that jumping 'dildosaurus'.  What the hell?

    Maybe she's married to Carl Everett.

    The brontosaurus was actually an error. The paleontologist combined bones that belonged to different dinosaurs.

  • The brontosaurus actually didn't exist. An early paleontologist put the wrong dinosaur head on a brachiosaurus (i think) body and thought it was a new species. He was just dumb.

    I cannot speak as to the dildosaurus.

  • I could not read the entire threads so I may have missed something. It seems to me if he is selling the things he is stealing he is hiding a much bigger secret like gambling debts or something else.

    Both the OP and all the people that are congratulating are ridiculous.

    We are soulmates.

  • Wait, really??? I feel like a dumbass. I had no idea about the brontosaurus.

  • I feel smart because I did know about the brontosaurus.  It was my sister's favorite dinosaur until we found out it wasn't real.  Mine remains the stegosaurus.

  • Well, that's just dumb.  I mean, the Flintstones ate brontosaurus burgers, right?

  • How did I not know this about the brontosaurus?

  • Is it bad that my first thought was "I wish this had happened while Friends was still on the air". I imagine Ross would have had a hilarious time with this.

    edit: apparently I'm extra stupid today because according to the article, it was official in the 70s

    But I love the triceratops. I think I need to go watch Land Before Time and pretend none of this ever happened.
