Kids Say the Nastiest, Most Ignorant Sh*t!

"My PUSSY ITCHES!" Can you believe a toddler screamed these very words in the middle of a Kroger's check-out line? Of course my mouth was sagging like an old maid's breasts. And the mother had the audacity to smile at her daughter, wave a hand in the air(drawing more attention) and say, "Anybody have a back scratcher?" I felt the blood rushing to my head, my stomach begin to ach from anger. It wasn't funny, nor was it entertaining at all(Have you ever been so angry that you felt it in your stomach? When it gets to this point everyone should stay out of harm's way.).

Maybe I'm a little too old fashion, but I think that is a travesty to have children screaming things like this out in public. It's not teaching these children to have any self respect what-so-ever. I couldn't even look this woman in the face after she joked about her daughter's peerlessly ignorant and rude facade.

The mother's decision to chaff about the incident didn't seem like a way to ameliorate her child's chances of appearing on the hit Cosby show, Kids Say the Darndest Things. She'd be most definitely invited on the Mother's Teach Their Children Jack *(BEEP)*! show.

Suddenly, I paused. I had to evaluate myself for a moment. In less than 6 seconds, I summed this woman up as a mid-thirties, bedraggled piece of no good parent without a wedding ring, a nasty child, and... Wait.. I didn't see them before. Wow. She has FOUR other kids. They, unlike their mother, look very clean and well kept. I decide to shut my mouth and not judge her any longer. Maybe it's very difficult raising five children all by one's self.

Then, the questions started (you know me and those questions). When men see her appearance and the countenance in which she carries herself compared to her children, does this cause them to choose the Go To Jail card instead of Advancing To Go and Collecting $200 Dollars mainly because she's standing near the latter? As screwed up and judgmental a thought it is, I wonder do other men see this and run? Was she once married and got a divorce? Was it because of something she did or was it him? Maybe she had her children out of wedlock and the father was just at home watching a sports game instead of taking his family to the store.

That lack of a wedding ring made me wonder what her relationship status was.. or lack there of. And this is what makes our country so fantastic and sickly fucked up. We judge a book by it's cover way too many times. Who would think a book entitled Pretty Flowers by a woman named Jane Doe and a picture of a dandelion amid a background of a setting sun would inspire anything beside a corny well put-together piece of edited sliced crap? Yet, when you flip it open, read past the second page and never want to stop, you are happy that you didn't judge that book by it's cover.

Okay, my rant is over.
