AIBU to hate mums who turn up to drop off kids in pyjamas

AIBU to hate mums who turn up to drop off kids in pyjamas?

Mainly because these are the same ones who are also usually swearing in public and shouting down their mobile phones, and/or their kids.

@RootyT00t, I didn't say you had to. Equally, I don't have to change my opinion that its attention seeking, just because you say I do.

People seem so desperate to find and characterise an underclass for them to feel superior to.

I have a professional job and a good salary. I have worn nightwear outside the house. It really wasn't because I was trying to get attention from judgemental curtain twitching morons with superiority complexes. I couldn't give two shits what people like that think.

You don't need to change your opinion, you just need to realise that everything in life isnt about you and what you think.

Yep it's horrible. How hard is it to put a pair of trousers on. Also get annoyed with parents who bring their kids to school late all the time. Just rude.

@RootyT00t, likewise. I actually don't think everything is about me. If you can say what you think, so can I. Stop being so defensive.

I'm like well posh me
I would never do this because I know you lot would judge me but I really envy those with enough confidence not to care what people think.
I have worn PJs around a campsite and it felt great. I also have a friend who is a consultant surgeon who sneaks out to the local spar shop at night in her onesie.

@eatsleepread

It's tacky and a poor example.

Agree.

I don't have to change my opinion that its attention seeking, just because you say I do.

You kind of do have to change your opinion that wearing pyjamas in public is attention seeking, when people who wear pyjamas in public tell you that they are not seeking attention. I mean, they know whether or not they are seeking attention better than you do.

Thinking someone else is attention seeking implies they want your attention.

Its disgusting and people have no self respect !

As opposed to people who hate people judged on clothing. They're lovely.

Dont care what you say i think standards have slipped and it just isnt acceptable to do this,

I think it's disgusting to judge people based on something as superficial as clothing, but I guess it takes all sorts.

it sure does :)

@CuthbertDibbleandGrubb

I would not allow someone in pyjamas onto school premises. Make them wait off the premises, even in non-Covid times.

If the police had the powers, I would want them to breath test those who drive having not got dressed properly. Lateness in getting up can follow from evening drinking still in the bloodstream.

Eh up! Priti is that you? The last thing we need is even more erosion of our freedom.

@Crocidura

Oh look, another assumption to add to the list - they don't wash.

I think that’s a fair assumption to make. I would assume they haven’t bothered to shower in the morning otherwise why would they have chosen to put pyjamas on after a shower instead of clothes appropriate for leaving the house in?

I couldn’t give a toss if people wear pyjamas out in public but I do find it odd.

@RootyT00t, not mine in particular, just attention.

@Doona

I have never actually seen this. But surely people just sleep in tshirt and leggings anyway, so how would you know unless they had specially designed sleepwear, which sounds fancy.

This did make me chuckle.

@Doona like that specially designed fancy sleepwear that’s commonly referred to as pyjamas?

@Kimye4eva

Could you define appropriate clothes?

And yes, I change into clean PJs!

@Flowers24

Well the fact you don't care is hardly earth shattering given your judgemental view or other people.

I agree but you can't say it without people being defensive. Any criticism of anything ever is jumped on. I agree with a previous poster that we are lowering the bar. There has to be a line somewhere surely?!

Wait until people start walking around with their undies on or naked. You'll get responses of "it's just a body, don't judge" etc.

1. These are not the same assumptions. There is a difference between "they haven't had a shower yet this morning" and "they don't wash".

1. Just because you can't fathom why someone would shower and then put pyjamas on, doesn't mean they haven't done exactly that.

@1Morewineplease

I don't like seeing people in pyjamas in public. To me , it smacks of 'I can't be bothered' which is, in itself, an attitude to life.

Shift working is no excuse .

I know I'm in a minority, I don't care, it's just slovenly.

Comfort yes... bed wear no.

Interesting to note the number of pyjama wearing ladies in full make up , rocking up to school so it's not just tired shift workers.

This.

@GojiberryStar

At our school they are usually the ones parked on the yellow zig zags outside the school too. 😀

Yes and yes

Yeah they probably claim benefits too, gross
