Understanding UD Rumors in 1 easy step (Alumni version)

So apparently my husband & dogs_n_rodents were trading dead baby jokes. Somebody saw this and got the idea I was pregnant. Let me assure you this is not the case. For those who didn't go to UD, let me give you a rundown on how some people think here:

Some hypothetical examples:

sir_montag: So a dead baby walks into a bar, and -
Them: Oh, you know his wife is totally ( Read more... )

I thought you already had a baby and gave it to the aliens. Wasn't that what that wierd lamp in front of your apartment was for...so they would know where to find you?

That's for the pizza & chinese food delivery persons. ;) OK, and the alien food delivery persons. So what? I like to eat a little snorgzh bkgjhf askhtg with a couple beers on Fridays. They don't accept paper currency so we had to improvise - you do what you gotta do, right?

For some reason I thought the UD rumor mill would die after graduation, but no... it never ends.

This one time, about two years ago when I worked at Starbucks in the store, this guy walked up to me and congratulated me on having a baby. I was like, 'what?'
He said, 'You were pregnant, weren't you?'
'Um...no...'
*and he KEPT GOING*
'I guess it was the apron - it made you look like you were pregnant.'

So I know I used to weigh more than I do now, but I don't think anyone ever confused fat belly for PREGNANT while I was in school?

Sigh.

At least people assume you're pregnant because you're married, so logically you MUST be (right?) and not because you actually look it. :)

Ugh, what a creep. Yes, all married women must be pregnant all the time, didn't you hear? :P

Jenny, I love you and all, but I don't EVER want to see a baby emerging from you. Maybe see the baby after emerging from you, but I really have no desire to witness the event.

All silliness aside, why do people constantly insist on assuming stuff like this when all they have to do is ask? People are such silly monkeys! Hah!
