Tonight On the Chez Laundry Report: Some People Aren’t Rude and Stupid, They’re Inappropriate
I took the children to McDonald’s for lunch the other day and a nice little old lady walked over to our table and started hugging the children. One by one, she discussed how pretty their eyes were, what nice hair they have, how well behaved they are, etc. Then she turned to me and asked if they were all mine. I, of course, said that they were. That’s when the lady got right up in my personal space, I’m talking a mere half inch between us, and said, "Tell your husband he’s a MAN!" Then she waved and smiled at the children and walked out of the "restaurant" and I was left sitting there wondering what just happened. What did I do next? I immediately sent my husband a text message telling him that an elderly woman just declared him to be manly and virile, that’s what!
You know what else is manly? Humor-Blogs.com, that’s what!
Maybe the nice old lady was trying to shoehorn in on your man. :-O You should have coldcocked her with a Big Mac.

Wow. Some people just don’t care. Heh. Say it like it is. Your hubby musta been all proud like what with his mega sperm and all.

Again. Wow.
What is it with the elderly and remarking on your family’s reproductive talents?

I think the lady was right to point it out, it has to be said every now and then… I think I need a tee-shirt “I have sperm, and it is good sperm.” As to the old lady…

THAT is hysterical. People say the craziest things. I have twins, and they are a magnet for unsolicited comments. Some people comment to my husband about how virile he must be to have been able to knock me up with two at once. Whaaa???
