sorry smee - what a shithead.

on your behalf but that his children have such a nobjockey for a father.

smeeinit · 20/01/2008 18:32

i really feel sorry for his children because if they are taught thats the way to behave they WILL get a smack from someone one day.

infact i think the guy wished he hadnt said it when i went back to my table and explained to all my family what he had said and all 16 of them turned to look at the twat,including my 3 brothers in law who are not small men and my 6ft 3 nephew!

As a curvaceous (I refuse to say fat) woman myself smeeinit, I am totally outraged on your behalf.

Never stoop down to their level though.

A few young lads were taking the p*ss out of me whilst jogging this week and I just stopped, looked at them, and asked them if their knew how hurtful their behaviour was. They looked suitably ashamed.

Hope your meal wasn't ruined.

smeeinit · 20/01/2008 18:43

for you nametaken, theres just no need is there?
oh gosh no my meal wanst ruined! it'd take more than a loud mouthed twat to spoil a meal for me!!

YANBU - so glad all your family were there with you.

I was in Tesco once with DC and I must admit I did look a scruff bag - had just thrown on scruffy clothes to go to the park with the kids and had not showered that day in my defence I did have a three year old and was breastfeeding at the time. Extremely well and expensively dressed couple at the next till - wife said in a low voice (but I heard!) to husband "Thats what no education and a bunch of kids will do for you" and both looked at me and sniggered. I waited till level with them at the end of the till and then phoned my Mum to tell her loudly and in my poshest voice what the rude couple at the next till were saying about me. They honestly went scarlet and were dropping all their shopping everywhere in their efforts to get away from me and my loud telephone conversation that everyone around could hear.

LOL viggoswife, good on you!

What a complete knob.

Should have told him that if you chose to you could quite easily lose weight but he would be an ugly fucking wank splash for the rest of his life

bubblagirl · 20/01/2008 19:24

you should have said at least i can dio something about my weight if i want to

but you cant do anything about that face or ugly attitude

prat hate people that are judgemental remember its only people that are insecure with themselves that feels the need to put down another so rise above it and if your happy with how you are then pay no attention

bonkerz · 20/01/2008 19:24

Some people are just ignorant and it takes a better person to ignore. TBH I feel sorry for people who feel such a need to make horrid comments to people, he must be very insecure! Being a larger lady myself i have found that if people are bothered about your weight they aint worth knowing!

smeeinit · 20/01/2008 19:25

i feel sorry for his wife and kids having to live with such an idiot!

Viggoswife · 20/01/2008 19:28

Oh that sounds yum. Maybe someone should start a thread that just talks about what we all ate that day. Maybe if I could hear what others have eaten I would not want to be eating so much myself all of the time

Fireflyfairy2 · 20/01/2008 19:35

If I was that man's wife I would have given him what for!

Did he say something loud enough for you to hear? Or did he not mean for you to hear it?

saff · 20/01/2008 19:45

yummmm i have just washed up roast dinner things just thinking about a little snackaroo....... what was wife like was she a sad salad eater

snuffler · 20/01/2008 21:16

Is that you on your profile page?
You should have thrown your drink on him.

smeeinit · 20/01/2008 22:13

hehe snuffler no that isnt me on my profile page!! im not that big............yet!!

saff, yes wifey was a sad salad eater,said wankery bloke was a bald ugly twat!

fireflyfairie, he made the comment to his family obviously thinking he was hillariously funny and that i couldnt hear so was a bit shocked when i stopped dead in my tracks and turned round and gave him the filthiest look ever before returning to my table and announcing what the bald ugly prick ahd just said!!

Save up some one liners, like

" Yes sweetheart I maybe overweight but at least I am not ingnorant and rude like you, Bye"

Has to be said with a smile and a loud positive voice then sauter off head held high.

Quattrocento · 20/01/2008 22:24

I don't think you are being unreasonable, but I do think you were a little bit feeble.

I think you should have had a word ...

smeeinit · 20/01/2008 22:26

feeble quattro...........you havent been on the recieving end of one of "my looks"!!!
he got the message!
