Stupid People Shouldn't Breed

Today, I think I witnessed why some people shouldn't breed. Ever.

I was at K-Mart (only because I found that they carry my preferred hair color), and while wandering the aisles aimlessly, I heard a conversation between a mother and daughter about the daughter's baby: The baby was crying, mother said something to the daughter about it, and the daughter's response was "well, the baby ain't supposed to be cryin' like that..."

*shakes head* What the hell were you expecting? That the baby could look up at you from the baby seat and say, "Yo, mom! I'm hungry/tired/lonely/need a new diaper!" The baby's only a few weeks old ... of course they're gonna cry. A lot. It's how they communicate, numbskull!

You don't know how much I wanted to say something. But considering that daughter was probably 100 lbs. more than me (and I'm no little waif, mind you) and I kind of like living and not having any broken limbs, I just walked past and shook my head at how stupid that woman sounded.

I repeat. Stupid people should NEVER breed. I may have made a conscious decision to not spawn - but that's because I know that a child deserves better than a mercurial mom that has no real desire to have children in the first place.

I hear you! I can't believe how many terrible parents can be seen at WalMart or KMart. I don't know if the stores bring out the worst in people or what, but I definitely come away convinced that I will never have kids... and that anyone who does want kids should have to prove that they can be decent parents first!!!

Something like that happened to me, tonight, in the Pet Store. I just wanted to turn around and slap the bitch.

We were in line to pay and noticed that they had 4, 8 week old, kittens for adoption. Behind us was a daughter and a mom... The

Daughter says: 'Oh, look at the kittens'

Mom (pissy): 'They're gross!!'

Daughter: *sigh*

Mom: 'What are those?'

Daughter: 'Gold fish'

Mom: 'And just where do you plan to put them??'

Daughter: 'In the tank.'

Mom: 'Jeezuz'

Daughter: 'Mom, you're no fun.'

Mom: 'Well, I'm just sick of animals. I want to go home. Are you almost done? Hurry up.'

Daughter: 'Well, go wait in the car and I'll be there in a minute.'

Mom: 'If I go to the car, I'm going to leave you here and you can walk home.'

I just wanted to turn around and ask her why the hell she's in a pet store... What a crabby, pissy bitch!!

Hey! If you don't like WalMart, then stay the hell out of our trailer park. Kidding. What really grates my nerves are the people who leave their baskets in the middle of the aisle-way and do not even bother to move when they see you try to get around it.

Hehe - I grew up on Wally World (Wal-Mart) being a big deal when I'd visit my grandparents. They lived in a small town, so I'd get excited when we'd go into town - even if all we were doing was going to Wal-Mart. ;)

But, yeah, you run into idiot people that block the aisles everywhere. I think one should be allowed to run into their carts if they don't get out of the way. *shrugs*
