Ok, so I was in Tesco earlier and this complete idiotic stranger says to me "HA! That dress makes you look about 6 months pregnant!", It's a black maxi dress. I give him a great big beam, like this >> :o , and go "Awww really? Thanks! I thought it made me look about 9, but I'm only 7 and half months!". I know, I think it was meant to be an insult but it really didn't work. I only wish I'd had a camera ready to get his face, it was a mixture of

I had a very similar comment from a bitchy 'friend of a friend' who I hadn't seen for ages.
She said "god you look about 5 months pregnant in that get up"
She nearly exploded with contained rage when I pointed out that actually I was due to give birth in 2 weeks time :) I love it when things backfire on bitches!

Oh yes, had another one the other day >
A lady said to me "I love your pretty dress it makes you look like you're having a baby"
I let her off on the grounds that (a) she has learning difficulties and (b) I was indeed looking rather bloated that day!

Really awful if he was being nasty but just to look at it from another angle, what if it wasn't intentional? What I mean is this:
I knew a guy who had a serious head injury and although he looked and spoke perfectly well, he really wasn't himself and would say the most outrageous things to people. It was terribly embarrassing at times.
Just a thought!
