but do you have to be so damn rude about it?
picture me standing outside on my lunch break having myself a smoke enjoying the cool night air after sitting in a burning up building all night.
lady walks up to me and asks "should you be smoking while pregnant?"
me: "I'm not pregnant"
lady: "then maybe you should lose about 100 lbs..." and walks off.
i was nearly in tears and came close to losing my job over assault & battery. that wouldn't be good so i smoked another one, took an extra long lunch, calmed myself down...
still pretty pissed off about it tho.
The best response to that is along the lines of:
ReplyDeleteYes, and you should double your IQ ... that would put you up to what? About 50, right?"
Or, you could have used the classic response:
ReplyDelete"Well, I may be fat, but you're ugly and I can lose weight."
Keep in mind, the world is full of people who have zero social skills. I tend to make such people my playthings. =)
thanks, if I ever encounter that again i'll use those.
ReplyDeleteheres to hoping it doesn't happen again.
