Pretty often. I still don't post much but when I was lurking he would tell me to stop being creepy and start posting.
I also told him about posting in the BOOTD and he was all, "you post pictures of her outfits?" like he couldn't believe that we all cared about kids clothes. lol A couple of days later he asked if I had taken a picture of her for the board. "Did the board like her outfit today?"
I, for some reason, refer to this place as "that mom message board I go on." I guess to make it seem more educational and/or less full of crazies? Like we're all just discussing breast pumps and Halloween costumes exclusively.
Ray doesn't want to hear it. So now, I trick him into listening! I tell him a friend (fill in the blank) and then he listens and is really interested and asks questions and then he asks me who?
Oh, all the time. What's funny is he'll try to show me something from the interwebs and I'll be like "pshaw. Someone posted that on the boards today. SEEN IT."

A few times a week, maybe. I don't call it by name, I say something like, "Oh this message board I was reading...."
H can't judge me at all; DH told me yesterday that one of the guys from his boat forum was supposed to stop by sometime this week and see the boat he is building..
He spends WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY more time on that boat forum than I ever thought about spending on here.
Not very often. If something particularly sad happened (like with Archer's DH) or if someone was particularly a meany-weeny to me, I'd mention it. But that was about it. He knew I loved ML and he thought it was cute.

Never. He sometimes wonders how I know things but I don't tell him it's because of here. I am tempted to have him read some threads to see what he thinks.

Rarely. Really only when something either really good or really bad happens. BUT, my husband is the most untechnological person on the planet (Hello AOL.com email address!). The man has never been on facebook.
However, he has met some of the IL ladies, and MWOS tutors him in physics on occasion :-)

All the time. I'm the world's worst storyteller, though, so it usually sounds like, "Okay, on my board, someone posted a picture of cardigans...there was this other poster who wanted some, and she has this whole history...it doesn't sound funny but it WAS...okay, never mind."
ooh! He has seen the vagina chart though. That one left him a bit gobsmacked for a while :-)
I shoved the chart in H's face and said "Which one am I?!?" Because I'm still on the fence about it. He yelled "EWWW GWAAAD NOO!!" So, here I sit, still confused about which number I actually am.

Very often. He usually doesn't want to know.
But he WAS fascinated when I was all, "REMEMBER HOW THE NEST PISSED US OFF?? SO WE TOOK OUR TOYS AND WENT SOMEWHERE ELSE? THEY ALL GOT FIRED!! ALL OF THEM!! EVERYONE!! WOOHAH!!!"
He wanted to know EVERYTHING. Then he came to and declared all of it dumb.
ETA: He also gets mad at you guys because you make me ask questions like IF YOU HAD TO PICK MY VAGINA OUT OF A LINEUP, WHICH ONE OF *THESE* WOULD YOU SAY I AM?
