To think it was obvious they were for the kids??

[Birump]

DS is having a little play date today, low key birthday “party” but DS doesn’t really do parties so it’s more of a gloried play date.
Yesterday I did some baking … 8 sausage rolls, 8 scotch eggs, 8 jam slags and 8 chocolate brownies.

Came down this morning and most of it is gone, I text DH asking if he’d touched the baking and he said yes, he’d taken it for work.

im fuming, isn’t it fucking obvious that they were for the kids for today?? He’s insisting that it was not obvious. This is not the first time he’s done something like this.

Good lord, no! That just really wouldn't have been nearly as submissive thoughtful of her! She should have known better and stayed up all night making sure her husband and all his work colleagues had plenty of everything to go round. A measly 32? And he only took "most", and not all? I'd say that was mighty cuntish refrained and generous of him, and he was clearly letting you see - through the thoughtlessness of your actions and so that you would come to this conclusion yourself, rather than mansplaining wasting his precious time - so as not to have made the mistake again.

I would be fuming. Stand your ground - he either brings them back right now or he doesn't come back at all!

What kind of self-centred fucker just assumes that his wife has spent hours slaving over a hot oven to bake a load of treats so that he can play Mr Bountiful with his colleagues?

I just can't get my head around how anyone would just take all that stuff without asking. It's incomprehensible.

It’s actually sad to have to point out you have a great partner there. He made a mistake, it happens. He recognised it, he offered to fix it in a reasonable way instantly. Sometimes the embarrassment of making a silly mistake is the hardest to apologise for, but doubling down makes it such a bigger issue and reflects relationship equality as a whole.

And more to the point, so, clearly, are the buns

I'm sorry you married such a thoughtless selfish cunt. But it's never too late to get divorced. What a prick

If he's done such things before you should have told him not to touch them.

Don't hide what he's done, shame the fucker. Tell the other parents what he's done, in fact ring up his folks and tell them too.

People pull shit like this because they know you're angry and they don't care, but they also know you're ashamed of their behaviour so you won't say anything.

Maybe judgement from others will stop the greedy twat in his tracks.

Surely you said to him yesterday. I'm baking food for dc party.

Why would she need to tell him that? How uninvolved is he in family life that he doesn’t know his son is having a party or that a large bake isn’t necessarily for him? Is he also a child who needs his hand batted away from freshly baked cookies?

Please can you post a picture of the jam slags? They sound sound amazing.

Suspect I am a bit of a jam slag.

but yes, what a selfish arse he is.

Selfish prick, he's 100% done that on purpose.
It the 'it's in my house so it's mine' mentality....my husband is similar but not as bad, definitely not on this scale!
I wouldn't bake another thing for him, ever.

I just cant really wrap my head around being in a relationship with someone who would do this deliberately, but even if they didn't do it deliberately, wouldn't be like 'oh bollocks, I've cooked up so sorry - let me see if I can duck out/another solution'
It's threads like this where I read them and think why do some people treat their partners worse than they would a friend?? Isn't your partner meant to be your favourite person or at least one of them? I'd be gutted to think id put my partner out like this!

But I do have complete sense of humour failure about "jam slags", I'm afraid. Please tell me your children don't call them that?

Until I was well into my teens, I only knew the word slag in reference to heaps, so I don't think I'd even think about it. I definitely didn't make the association about tarts until the Terry Pratchett book where he mentioned baking that started off as Maids of Honour but turned into tarts!

If he'd taken a sausage roll for his lunch I'd have thought he was a bit thoughtless, but doing this on purpose is really unkind.

Why has he done it on purpose? What a weird (and pretty callous to your own kid) thing to do

And he isn't "carting" them - the twonk is bringing them back

Selfish dick. Although jam slag has given me a much needed laugh this morning!!

Or he can jump to Greggs, don’t you think?

Stupid twat. Where does he work? Is it perhaps somewhere with a reception that you can ask to pass on a message for Twatface to bring the sausage rolls and jam slags home ASAP as they were for your child’s party. Could they announce this on a tannoy, preferably?

I’ll do anything for a pot of Bonne Maman Strawberry Preserve

I am the Jam Slag …

I agree. I couldn't imagine living with someone like this.

What kind of person deliberately sabotages his child’s party? I would be incandescent with rage. If I didn’t leave him he would get fuck all on his next birthday.

I'm so excited, jam slags are a real thing!
He's a greedy twat

Obvs he's a prize idiot - who would be so selfish as to scupper his own child's party?

I'd assumed jam slags was a typo for slabs but now I just have more questions! Can you explain about the jam balls? Would you share the recipe?!

I would be fuming OP. What have you replied to him?

P.s. also here to see a picture of a jam slag 🤣 they sound nice to be fair!
