To the miserable pregnant woman who came into my restaurant;
I’m sorry your steak was underdone. I’m sorry you didn’t know the difference between medium rare and medium well. I’m pretty sure that that tiiiny bit of red that was in your steak will not kill your unborn child. If you’re that worried about what you put into your body MAKE YOUR OWN DAMN FOOD. Being pregnant doesn’t entitle you to being a rude, screaming bitch.

Wow. She was probably hopped up on hormones but that’s no excuse. I wouldn’t work with the public if you held an electric drill to my head.
Agreed. It’s also likely that she beats the shit out of the lonely smoker outside of that same restaurant because she inhaled a smoke particle, but then sits in her car in traffic and inhales CO2 for hours on end in traffic. Fun times!
I love how people use pregnancy as an excuse to act like a nitwit. Yup you’re pregnant and I bet the hormones are just cartwheelin’ through you, but that’s the way it is, you chose (hopefully) to get preggers, don’t take it out on the rest of us!
wow….im impressed with the acceptance so far.
Careful john— you’re the guy who started that huge preggo thread a while back. 🙂 you may need to explain yourself all over again.
I still can’t believe there are parking spaces for pregnant women. When did pregnancy equal disability? When I was carrying my sprogs, I certainly got no special favours. Fuck, the kids are spoiled before they even get out of the womb.
Welcome to the age of entitled children, TTFN.
Can’t look at a kid sideways these days without people screaming about their self esteem being damaged.
The things kids get away with, the way their parents baby them/enable them and the way they spoil them these days is sickening. Parents want to be their kid’s “friend” rather than an authority figure. I cannot WAIT for this generation of kids to grow up and enter the “real world.”
When this upcoming generation of kids starts running the world we’re all going to be fuk’d.
Hey hey, don’t diss the pregnancy book she obviously was reading, it hasn’t been discredited yet.
pregnant women are the most self-entitled members of society. ‘oh look at me. I can procreate. I need a fucking parking spot’ … this is the other side of feminism. If only she realized that everyone is rolling their eyes at her. omg and octomom anyone?
I agree with Pretty Kitty about how so many kids being spoilt brats these days. I just had a baby 7 months ago and how to avoid turning him into one of these is probably my greatest preoccupation. I’m definetly not going to be one of those parents who are like ”I know my son kicked Grandad as hard as he could in the back of the leg and then stepped on his toe, but he really is going through a hard time right now and I think he was just expressing that!” I’m going to try my hardest to make sure mine is going to say plese and thank you always, know the difference between adults and children and behave appropriately to that. Although I hope he always loves me I don’t want to be his best friend- I want to be a good parent.
Geesh, why couldn’t you tell her she isn’t the only person in the world that has eaten red meat while pregnant and that guess what she isn’t the only woman in the world to get pregnant so she isn’t entitle to any special privleges.
