Getting funny looks

wolfpawnat

Ok I know this random and I am not even sure AH is even the place for this! I just thought it was hilarious and want to know has anyone else ever gotten funny looks going down the street? I went to the shop today to buy a 6 pack of cans as the last part of my OH's Valentines day present but here is the funny bit I am overdue my baby so I have a pretty big bump. I have never laughed so much as when I walked down the road and everyone one I passed staring at me and giving me dirties! I should be offended that anyone would think I would drink a 6 pack while so heavily pregnant but i just couldnt stop laughing at the faces of people.

I was wondering who that eejit with the 6 pack of cans was.!;)

Hilarious.

You should have necked back a bottle of buckfast and puked all over them. Just think how funny the looks on their faces would be then.

You should have told them that it didnt do any harm to the other 9 of them and the 10th gets you double child care allowance.

You should have staggered a bit as well. Make em think it was your second 6 pack of the day

Well lets face it what fella wants flowers and a mushy card, I got him cans and a sarcastic t-shirt and he's finishing his Dominos pizza I ordered now too:) I felt guilty that he felt he couldnt leave me alone to go meet the lads for a few weeks. So I went and got him his favourite.

Haha I just thought it was hilarious. I dont smoke so that wouldnt have worked.

There would be no need to buy nappies you couldnt miss my bump if you tried!

Yeah,go to a large supermarket and get a few beers and nappies, when you get to the check out, say, feck, i don't have enough money for it all and make a big deal about returning the nappies .Priceless result in a crowded shop.:D

Waste of gear tbh. Why not inject yourself instead?

So can anyone think of an occasion that they have been given funny looks and just thought to themselves, its not what it seems!

Well... in Bruxelles on Thursday night, I went to the Duke Box, I put on Balls to the Wall by Accept. I got my balls out and put them on the wall.

Got funny looks then.

When my wife was pregnant with our last child (who is now stuck in Dublin which we can't see very often - thats another story!), the wife would wear a Carlsberg t-shirt because it was bit and loose on her due to her size with bump.
As any pregnant person will know more so, wearing normal clothes goes out the window.
So she wore this more comfortable t-shirt. Needless to say, the amounts of daily dirty looks she got was unreal.
Why in all honestly I didn't know at first.

What did folk think she was doing? Going on a drink binge? It was a t-shirt for fcuks sake!
(and no, she didn't drink AT ALL before, during and even now, after her pregnancy)

The stupidity and low mental process thinking of some Irish people astounds me daily.
Complete morans.

Wait a minute, so what you're saying is that your wife drank whilst pregnant?

When you have a hook for a hand, it tends to be par for the course. They usually do it when I've gone past as oppossed to standing there obviously gawping though.

That's because it's weed at the back, heroin/crack at the front. Did you not read the etiquette notice?

People don't get funny looks in the street in countries where fire arms are legal

yep, once my mam was minding a baby for the weekend for one of her friends, and i took her out in the pram for some fresh air. There was this one woman out walking with her small child, and the child came over to look at the baby. the mother ran over, picked up her child, and the look she gave me, would have curdled milk! she obviously thought it was my baby(i'm 16). People always just assume the worst straight away, don't they?

If you want a really funny look, go to your bank tomorrow morning with a business plan looking for a loan.;)

Used to get plenty of weird looks whenever me and my ex used to bring her niece and nephew to the park but then often you'd get some that smiled so happily seeing a young couple with kids, haha.
