MIL Overshare

so we met up with DH's family in New Orleans this weekend-- super fun.  But MIL got super drunk at Pat O'Brien's and shared that she and DH's dad were frequenters of swinger's clubs. AND that his youngest sister was conceived at one!  Surprise

How do I see this woman without dying laughing?

    So is this some sort of family secret/confession??  Like lil' sis is the milk man's baby, so to speak?  

    OMG I would die!  What did your DH do when she told this story??

    me:  Oh Mah GAWD!!!  Indifferent and Tongue Tied and Ick! and even some Hmm

    agran:  How do I see this woman without dying laughing?

    me:  I don't think you do, sweetie!

    Right??  Maybe it's time for some covert hair or toothbrush DNA testing!  She didn't share "how" she knew littlest sister was full on but she said she did.  I didn't ask.  Poor DH he just shakes his head and doesn't know what to do.  Oh MIL you do entertain me-- and the board.

  • Ohmygod!!!

    I can't even imagine!  How'd your DH take it?  That would have to be rough to hear your mom say from out of nowhere, especially the bit about his sister.

    .
  • OMG! I would D.I.E!!!!! if my MIL ever told me that!!! I don't know how you kept it together.

    Once, my MIL told me that she's often not interested in sex when her husband is and she just tells him "pull my nightgown down when you're done, honey" I almost vomited and jumped out of the car, but your story is SO much worse!!

    DYING. I can't even imagine hearing this. Let alone while drunk. Poor SIL!

  • Oh.my.goodness.  What in her brain made her feel that was an ok thing to share.  The swinging alone is more than enough overshare.  But then to throw out her daughter was conceived at such a party.....does her brain not have a warning alarm???

    I'm pretty sure you win IL story of the year.  That's crazy!  Did your DH and his sis already know this?

    totally this conversation!!!

  • I have been told a (not-similar) story with eerily weird truths about the possibility of my sister only being a half sister.  Since it was after my mother was deceased, I dropped it.  If your MIL doesn't want to tell her, then she needs to shut her trap and move on.  I definitely wouldn't get involved in that one.

    As far as TMI- OMG, WTF?!?!  Ewwww!!! Gag! Bleh!

  • This post led to a funny conversation between DH and I about which of our siblings was most likely conceived during a swingers meeting Wink

    I should note that none of our parents have ever admitted to being swingers, but we have odd siblings and often talk about them coming from other 'fathers'. We have a weird sense of humor...that's why DH and I are MFEO.

  • Indifferent

    I'd still take your MIL over mine any day of the year!

    We have so much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

    While I think the original post is frightening, this one grosses me out more!

    Maybe I should be thankful that my MIL only gets racist when she drinks. I would freak my freak if she talked about sex.

    OMG.  I would DIE if my MIL ever talked about sex, let alone going to swinger's clubs!  I don't know how you can possibly keep a straight face around her.  Ever.  And the SIL part?  Ick!  Holy crap!

  • Well, at least she's, um, an entertaining drunk. Right? I mean, I guess it could be worse.

    Please tell me your SIL was not there too.

  • nope SIL and her brand new husband were not there... thankful for small favors.  We'll just keep this one between us. 

    MIL is certainly an entertaining drunk.  I wasn't quite sure if she expected me to share back but I have nothing interesting to share about my extremely boring sex life.

    I'm with SareBear on this! That is all kinds of yuck, yet no doubt very common. Yeesh.

  • If it makes you feel any better, she said that her daughter was conceived AT a swingers' club, not that she got pregnant in the midst of a gang bang, right? I mean, not that you want to think about your ILs having sex, but it's totally plausible that FIL and MIL were just having sex with each other while they watched other people do crazy weird stuff on that particular night.

    omg mcgee, I'll never be able to unthink this!

    So so glad that my ILs don't really drink. Though this could explain why my one SIL is so short....Stick out tongue (KIDDING if you're somehow reading this)
