      Isn’t she a billionaire? THIS is what she feels guilty about to this day? …right

      When I was 7 stole a little rose shaped soap that was part of a set and already broken out of its original packaging at a Ross and it took me FOREVER to lose the guilt. That was the only thing I’ve ever stolen, so I can relate lol

      Knowing that she’s a billionaire really makes this “stole a peppermint patty” story a lot less cute to me lol

      My mom thought I was naturally lucky (????) because I kept finding things outside. Games, toys, school supplies, books. They’d be dirty, but usable. I was stealing from every store we visited. I’d run to a bus stop or something ahead of her & my brother, partially bury an item, then “find” it while we waited.

      She saw me throw a pack of bubble tape out of my pocket and “find” it. That’s when she realized lol. I was like 7. She made me go back to QT, return the gum, and apologize. I kept stealing until I was 13 or so.

      I will never forget “stealing” Garfield’s Big Fat Scary Joke Book from my 2nd grade teacher’s classroom. We were allowed to take books home, but had to bring them back in a certain number of days. I had forgotten about it for several weeks and was too afraid to bring it back late (despite her loving me and being the nicest teacher ever), so I kept it. I coloured over my teacher’s name on the inside cover in black marker and buried it deep in my bookshelf. I felt like a terrible kid for a long time after that. Sorry, Mrs. D!

      I stole grated cheese from the supermarket this morning and I would have forgotten about it if I hadn’t read about this. And she feels guilty for stealing pepperment forty years ago? Yeah right.

      I have a comment about stealing a piece of candy when I was like 4 and it got featured in a BuzzFeed article because the store I stole it from went out of business like a week later and thought it was my fault all those people lost their jobs for yeeeears so I definitely sympathize with the endless guilt

      I’m so sorry but I am tired of pretending billionaires are relatable
