is trolling SBP right? That seems like a huge coincidence, that two regs would find strange earrings in their bed.

Re: So SillyFool on PCE
is your dh vegan that he would fucck so hard to require earring removal?
Um say what now?
MW's possible theories are really making me scratch my head.
How in the fu(k would a PAIR of HOOP earrings end up tucked under a damn mattress?! A single stud? Maybe. But a pair of what sounds to be large earrings would not go unnoticed while making a bed.
If I were to ever find earrings in my bedroom, I would be certain that something was rotten in Pleasantville.
I'm annoyed that SBP is all taking the moral high road, like, How dare you discuss my marital troubles for your own entertainment! Dude. How about don't post them on an internet message board, for starters? lol.
And majorwife. Whew. I mean, is she defending SBP or has she found some questionable sh!t under her mattress or what?

Yes, cross-dressing, ferrets and kleptomania are all being considered.
For the record, I find these posts sad. I know I'm making light of some of the replies, but I feel terrible for anyone faced with something like this.
Gah, I'm sucked in. Now someone is trying to contort it into some "maybe they were a valentine's gift and he just really wants you to get your ears pierced..."
I almost feel insulted on her behalf for all the ludicrous possible "explanations." (not the obviously jokey ones, of course)
Yes, he bought huge ugly earrings and hid them unboxed in between the mattress in hopes she would get the hint and pierce her ears.

Have you ever found someone else's vibrator when you went to change the sheets? It could have just gotten tangled up in the laundry. That happens all the time.

It was SBP's sister's earring? I'm going with she knows about the affair and is covering for him because she knows SBP will never leave. Anything else kinda breaks my heart for ol' Pukey.

That's the story (except was it 2 earrings? That would be even crazier), right?. That her sister stayed in the guest room and lost her earring(s)? The earring then got tangled in the guestroom sheets, carried to the laundry, washed, dried, carried to the master bedroom (do most people not have dedicated guest sheets??) still tangled in the sheets, and put on the bed without ever falling out of the sheets, getting broken, or being noticed?
ETA: I just read the end of the thread. "Goose that laid the golden hoops" was funny.
I don't know what you're talking about. That sounds perfectly plausible.
It was Mrs Plum in the bedroom with a candlestick!
No my vote is it's the sister and she wanted the husband to get caught so she planted them there. Then she and the husband can run away, drink pina coladas and get caught in the rain.
Well, I'm glad that more people than I expected are giving it to her straight, but I side eye the hell out of the people who are like "Well, if your mind immediately went to cheating, you must have other suspicions because if I found strange earrings in MY bed, I wouldn't think twice!"
Also, WTF is up with that half folksy-half ghetto "ohhh that hussy gonna call you, just you wait!" chick? Is she a parody troll?
Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
My sheets don't always fill up the washer so I'll throw in a sheet from another set to fill the load. I end up with a lot of mismatched sheets.
I don't wear earrings, but it seems really weird to lose both at once. Is that a thing that happens?
Oh, and um, the PETA thing is this: http://community.feministing.com/2012/02/15/my-boyfriend-went-vegan-peta-ad-and-domestic-abuse/ ::wrinkles nose::

I guess that makes sense. I'm weird and wash guest sheets alone. But that means that the magical earrings got themselves untangled from one sheet and tangled into another, all without notice or breakage.
I agree about the two at once. That shiznit is deliberate.
I agree. I don't think someone necessarily "planted" them though, so much as maybe he spotted them on the nightstand after a rendezvous and stashed them under the mattress in a hurry and forgot. Two means they were placed there by someone though.
Have I told you guys that when we lived in the apartment I used to find other women's underwear in my laundry sometimes?
I'm 100% sure that Mr M wasn't cheating because:
applesauce) the man has never asked anyone on a date, much less picked anyone up. His default reaction to flirtation is annoyance and confusion. (I've seen it, it's hilarious. Unless it's me, then it sucks.)
bananas) I usually found them in the clean hamper, and once put away in my drawer ::ew::
cheerios) they were always giant cotton granny panties.
But it has made me wonder how I would react if I found something like earrings.

SBP brought up that earring thing as insinuating her husband was having an affair. She added it to in an "andplusalso I found an earring in my bed last year." you'd THINK she'd have added "but ahah, thank god it was just my sisters and it fell into the wash" later.
she's a sad soul.
And those women are seriously cracking me up "do you have a cat? my cat likes shiny things and sometimes lipstick"
Uh okey.
I am so confused by so many posts in that thread. Majorwife is kidding herself with the "if this made you convinced he's cheating, then you already knew it before.". Yeah, something must have made her believe it. Like earrings in her bed!
I think the most confusing to me might be the last post, about how you don't have to tuck the sheets near the pillows do maybe it's been there for years. Please tell me this person is a) sleeping with SOMETHING between herself and a bare mattress or b) changing the sheets occasionally. Please.
we all fall down sometimes
brass and ballet flats
I too was confused by the lack of mattress feelin'.
It is utterly bizarre to me that grown women are so "there are a million reasons for a pair of earrings in your bed." I mean... really?
