Don't point that thing at me.

Thank you, thank you… I’ll be here all week. :smiley:

I didn’t say a damned thing – I just sat there with my jaw in my lap and cooling processed food lying forgotten on my tongue. I was at a loss for words. (I’ve never been much of a stink-raiser. My fight-or-flee switch seems to favour “flee” most of the time. “I’m gettin’ outta here, me!”)

Thanks to Lib, I have a stock answer ready should it ever happen again. God forbid.

Perhaps if you had thrown up on her shoes she would have gotten the point :slight_smile: ?

See, where there is will, there is whey…

Ugh. Diaper-changing and public restaurant tables do not mix. Especially when you don’t eat at said restaurant, but just use it as some “convenient” place to change your babvy. There are baby-changing tables available at the facilities provided. (and if this doesn’t make sense, I apologize)

One part of me wants to know which restaurant that was so I or my friends don’t eat there, even though I’m sure it’s been disinfected by now (but still there’s an oogy factor to it). Another part of me doesn’t want to know, just so I don’t have to think of this story if ever I pass the restaurant. I think I’ll settle for not knowing, in this case.

F_X

I hope you’re not equating the two! No one could possibly get any diseases from seeing you breastfeed an infant, after all.

Qadgop addressed you directly, though - that’s worth the shame, isn’t it?

Idiots. Farking idiots.

I would NEVER think to change a baby’s diapers in public place such as a restaurant---- a bathroom is where that shit belongs. (yep. literaly)

Stories like that totally amaze me. I mean, go into the farking bathroom changing table! Or change the damn diaper in your farking car!!!

For crying out loud. Totally disgusting. Stupid and moronic.

actually, my thought process was as follows:

hmm, baby just ate, she’s gonna sleep for the next 3 hours.

better change her.

where’s the bathroom? hmm, let me check her and see if she’s stinky, nope.

well, i’ve got this whole booth here, i’ll just lay her blankie down in the seat (not on the table, not even directly on the seat) and change her.

now, i didn’t realize that changing a wet diaper with a blankie between her and any part of the furniture would be any less sanitary than laying her down with her diaper on. honestly. but qadgop corrected me on this, so it won’t happen again…

equating the two was just 'cause there were exposed body parts that are normally covered.

There’s nothing wrong as far as I’m concerned with babies nursing where people eat. But the one general societal taboo thru the ages is to not excrete (or handle excretions) where one eats. Societies that violated that one tended to not thrive.

:confused: I’d better not be developing a following! I’m self-absorbed enough as it is. Besides, Cecil is the perfect master. This is his cult, dammit!

Larry the same thing happened on Saturday at lunch time in a shopping mall food quart, and it’s not a busy time of year at all. This lady walk around the tables trying to find a free one, settle on the one right in front me and started to undress her baby to change the diaper.

Before she could get any further, I told her there was a facility about 20 feet away, she replied that this was an emergency… 20 FEET LADY, when she looked around and saw that people were staring, she sighed heavily and walked away… opposite direction from where I had shown here the facility was… I’m still trying to figure out what the emergency was???

To quote Jeff Foxworthy: <i>“When the box says 10 to 15 pounds, it means it. That diaper wouldn’t hold another ounce.” </i>

You- I like you, and only party because of your name. Welcome to the boards.

You sure it’s not mosty because of her name?
:wink:

Hence the user name.

After she tossed the rolled up used diaper in the trash you should have dove in after it, then put it your coat pocket. If she looked at you funny say “Well you threw it away!” Trust me she would never change the baby in public again.

You’re welcoming her to the boards because she’s only been here for 2.5 years?

I didn’t even notice that, I only saw her post count. In that case, post more Buttercup!

I’m reading this thread and I’m speachless.

I’m as speachless as I was when I heard about someone who left broken glassware all over the floor of the BSL-4…

I’m as speachless when I saw my co-worker working under the BSL-3 hood without safety gear.

Well dammit, if I thought the “Hull” you meant was the one within travelling distance, I’d be slithering after you.
[sub]Purely in the interests of science of course![/sub]

But then it would depend on what sort of trail you were leaving…
:smiley:

This seems like an appropriate thread for W.C Fields quotations:

“I like children, but i could never eat a whole one.”
“I like children - deep fried.”
