One of the boards I read (all that AP mom shit) had a thread today about how annoying it is when someone asks if your baby is “good”–meaning quiet, sleeps a lot, and doesn’t interfere with your life.
My favorite come back on the thread was:
“I tell them “No, he’s TERRIBLE! Yesterday I went to check on him when he was supposed to be napping and he had two prostitutes in there with him and I was like ‘Son, they have to go home now’ and he was like ‘##@$ you mom!’ and busted a cap in my @**!”
that is hilarious…
Don’t they know we refer to them as “Sex-Workers” now??? Sheesh!
that’s awesome. Just… awesome.
(*Snicker*) That’s good!
Huh, I can’t remember ever hearing someone ask someone if his/her baby is “good”. I don’t think I’d have even known what that meant if I heard it, if I hadn’t read your post. Then again, maybe that means I have heard it before but just didn’t remember it because it didn’t make sense.
i always answered that question the way my dad did…
say, as seriously as you can muster…
“only when (s)he’s sleeping.”
