Today we got into the lift in our apartment building with a woman who was wearing rather a lot of perfume. Mattie started waving her hands around in front of her face and saying (v loudly) "Poo! Stinks!" and sticking her tongue out. Repeatedly.

*sigh*

I mean, if your kid only recently figured out how to use a toilet, I don't think the lady would be insulted.

my MOTHER does that
its so embarrassing
but really, some people need a smell detector to tell them if its too much before they leave

Maybe you should stop hanging around with this "Mattie" character, she sounds like a real loser.

You are so right. People who wear tons of stinky poo perfume have absolutely no tact. Mattie and I behave the same way when confronted by these clueless people.
PS my niece often tells robust women we come across in public that they have REALLY big booooooobs.

Which is kinda nice as she neglects to mention the sagging gut below them...

Out of the mouth of babes... :D

Maybe the woman will take it as a lesson. Other people shouldn't smell you unless they're in, up close.

I can sympathize Peachy...we just finished up swimming lessons with the kid's here...and I ended up going cause I'm the only liscensed male member of staff who can supervise the Kinder boy's change....anyway's the most bizarre part of this gig is when I had to walk them from the private change room through the regular change room...and you have to go through the showers to get to the pool deck…at that time of the day there was a senior citizens fitness program so the showers are full of naked old men and the kids had no problem articulating their thoughts on it alll..."look how fat"...“that’s gross!” and “Ewwwww!” right out loud....repeatedly...all the way through..some of them closed their eyes which I found endearing and hilarious...every week I'd give them a little sensitivity speech before we walked...to no avail....little cheeky monkey devilz...:o
