With age does not come common sense.

It can, and it should - but apparently that is not how it works for everyone.

We recently took a family trip to the land of whatdidIevenbuytocostmethatmuch, AKA Target. We weren't there long - our main reason for going was to get a double stroller. We had a few short detours, but all in all we were in and out in decent time.

We were checking out. Andy in front, with Kaitlyn and the stroller in his cart. Me behind, with Brianna and various random items in my cart. I'm playing and talking with Brianna, minding my own business, when a woman, maybe in her 50's, comes up to my side and says "Ooh, that baby must be dying of heat". I look at Brianna and feel her forehead. Feels just fine to me. I smiled politely and probably let out some sort of short, dismissive laugh. Yes, Brianna had her snowsuit thing on, but it isn't a super thick one. A thick fluffy one won't fit well under the infant car seat straps (hence the reason we also put blankets over her through the cold winter). Her hood was down and out of the way. The blankets were not on her. Underneath her suit was a thin Gerber brand footy pajama. She feels just fine and is as happy as can be.

And then, the lady gives me a sideways glance before walking away back to her cart behind me, and says "Unzip that baby". Ummm, excuse me?! I was so taken aback that I did not say anything and instead just maneuvered my cart around Andy and waited in front of him. I wish I would have said something. It wasn't just what she said (though that was bad enough) but the way she said it...in a snotty, accusing sort of tone. This is a complete stranger, somebody I've never seen in my life. It amazes me that there are people who feel it is okay to make comments like that. I've heard many stories similar to this, but it is the first time it happened to me. I guess until now I was lucky enough not to come across somebody so clueless and rude.

Oh, and of course, all but 2 minutes later, we were bundling the girls back up to go outside.

So, has anybody else had an inappropriate or random rude comment from a stranger?
