Get your baby's dirty ass off the restaurant table!

She’s acting like curlcoat. What did you expect?

Sure, but I, for instance, don’t go around demanding that everyone comport themselves by my sensibilities.

This is never going to end, is it?

How can you even compare the offensiveness of holding a water glass too long or short pants with potentially dirty ass on a public eating surface? And what is the point of this line of arguing anyway? Anyone can be offended by anything so fuckitall and don’t bother to show any courtesy to anyone else because it’s just too much trouble?

“Breeders” are people who merely reproduce - they do not bother to actually parent their kids. There are also the terms Parent Not Breeder (PNB) and Breeder Not Parent (BNP). Breeders are the ones who turn into complete idiots when they have kids, claim to be incapable of keeping them in line in any way and seem to view their kids as extensions of their egos.

You are kidding, right? You see nothing wrong with sitting a kid on a table, so you demand that everyone around you have your same lack of sensibility when you do so. Things like this are why people with normal sensibilities don’t want to see a diapered kid on the table.

Oh, and for those who didn’t believe that kids go about with only a diaper on? Seems a product like this wouldn’t be popular otherwise.

Trying to attack me for being selfish and entitled just doesn’t work, since I no longer have kids that I need to sit anywhere. The simple fact is that there is nothing wrong with it.

All I have been objecting to is the entitled demands of phobic numbnuts who want the world to bend to their freaky whims.

No one is demanding you don’t give a fuck about anyone but yourself, just strongly suggesting.

Dammit! I can’t keep up!

And, don’t you wish we’d locked the thread when I suggested it? :slight_smile:

Perhaps, but this baby is still shitting out some great stuff IMO.

I fucked her once and never called back.

Does that count?

There is something wrong with it. Just because some of you think there is no danger of leakage and germs getting left on the table does not make it so. Not wanting a potential contaminant on an eating surface is not a freaky whim.

Huh. Nothing I wrote was an attack, nor did I say either “selfish” or “entitled”. Apparently you are feeling guilty, eh?

The fact that you think it is “phobic” and “freaky”, as well as a “whim” that many people don’t want to see a diapered baby on a table (something that is completely unnecessary) does tend to indicate that you are not thinking with a clear mind on the subject.

There are more germs on your hands than on my baby’s pants.

They are my germs and I’m used to them. There’s also a big difference between my hand germs and the possible germs from a baby’s ass. I wash or sanitize my hands frequently, I don’t shit on them.

You people who think there’s no problem with it, those of you that have the ultra clean baby asses, how about we take anyone else’s baby and plop it’s diapered ass on your plate and you tell us if you still want to eat off it. I volunteer the baby from that family that has too many kids and none of them look like they’ve ever encountered soap and water in their lives. Is it still okay? Sure, you’re babies are all super babies that poo cotton candy and fart rainbows and we should be priveleged to lick their pristine diapers but what about all those other people who just aren’t as wonderful parents as you? Do you trust their sanitary practices?

This is ridiculous. It’s just rude to put something on a public eating surface that has no business on a public eating surface no matter how clean you personally think it is.

The next people who sit at your table are not used to them. You are polluting the table more than a baby’s panted ass.

There is no possibility of shit suddenly exploding through a baby’s diaper and pants and onto the table. It doesn’t happen. If by some phenomenal fluke that does happen, then you will be able to see the shit on the table and choose another place to sit.

It’s not for you to decide what does or does not “have business” going on a public eating surface. You don’t get to make those determinations by fiat. The nature of a public space dictates that you should assume every surface is covered with germs anyay, and act accordingly. If you don’t make that assumption about EVERY table, you’re a moron to begin with.

It’s interesting that you germophobes compulsively fuck up your analogies. Table =/= plate in the same way that table =/= baby bottle nipple. Again, I recommend against licking the tables. Perhaps that is the basic diaconnet in this argument. Nevertheless, you just should not lick tables.

One last post and then if I ever post here again it will be to mock how stupid this thread is. Even my iPhone browser crashed twice when trying to quote DtC and Hentor.

DtC, so I can’t decide what is right and proper, then why do you get to decide? You guarantee that a baby won’t poop at an inopportune time and diapers don’t leak. Sure I don’t have kids but I’ve been around them enough to see this happen. Then you go on to say that even if this thing which you guarantee won’t happen does happen, It will get cleaned and if it’s not cleaned up properly we should see it and refuse to sit there. Since you can guarantee the other stuff I’m sure you can guarantee that as well even thin smears on dark tables as you know all. Also, as I said my hands are not covered in shit and I don’t put them all over the table anyway, and I have a little more confidence in the restaurants cleaning rag to clean any germs I might have left than to be able to remove every trace of smeared feces.

Hentor, I did not fuck up the analogy. I think that those of you who guarantee babies
asses are clean should be willing to put your money where your mouth is and eat off a plate that had some random baby’s diapered ass on it. Also, I’m not a germophobe or I would never eat out but knowing there are self-important assholes like you guys out there, I may reconsider.

And now I’m done. You guys just seem to argue for the sake of arguing. You are defending rude behavior. I don’t think you even have any idea what you’re arguing about anymore. Have fun with your obstinate selves.

I’m not deciding, I’m minding my own business. I don’t give a rat’s ass what other people do at other tables. They can take out their dicks and piss on them for all I care. None of my business.

I guarantee you that a baby is not spontanously going to shit through a diaper and pants and onto a tabl, yes.

No you haven’t. You have not seen a baby shit explosively and without warning through a diaper and pants onto a table. When diapers leak, it happens because the baby has not been attended quickly enough. It doesn’t happen instantly, it takes a while to seep out.

They are covered with more germs than ababy’s pants, and yes you do put them on the table.

This shows a lack of awareness of of restaurant practices and human tendencies actually. The reality is that people are likely to be MUCH more likely to be thorough in cleaning in disgusting, visible mess from a table than for tables with no visible problem. In the latter case they are more likely to give a few cursory swipes with a rag. In the former, they bring out the bucket of soapy water and the bleach.

Having said that, you should treat ALL public tables as if they are covered with germs because they are. The notion that a baby’s pants touching a table makes it more septic than you touching it withyour bare hands is delusional and phobic. There are medications which can help you with that.
By th way, drunk people go to restaurants all the time, and I’ve witnessed several instance of drunks puking on tables or floors. The statistical chance that a drunk will puke on a table is much higher than that a baby will magically and spontaneously shit through a diaper and pants faster than a parent can lift it from the table, therefore, by your logic, nobody has any business going to get some tacos after they leave the bars.

At first I wondered how this was such a big issue, but then I realized that it’s like a perfect storm of cantankerous contention on this site. It’s got babies, germs, restaurants, social norms, and Dio :wink: All we need is tipping, weight loss, circumcision, some religio-political angle, and we’re all set for another 20 pages! Two of those would be easy to throw into the mix.

Although honestly I have to agree with Dio on one point. I don’t think poopie will seep through a diaper before the parent picks it up. Maybe I’m wrong though. I know I’ve never, not once, seen a parent at the restaurant where I work put a baby on the table. I don’t understand why though… Do you think it’s because I work at a Japanese grill? Those damn babies are racist and don’t want to put their butts on our slanty-eyed tables! How could I have not seen it all along?!

Counting on parents to do the right thing when other people are involved is never a winning bet.
