Firstly I don't condone violence BUT you know how some days you wake up and you just know that if some punk pushes your buttons you're very likely gonna slap them.
Well it is one of those days today and I came about as close as I ever have to starting a girl on girl rumble.
Story goes like this:
Took my wee boy to the supermarket today to get some bits and bobs and while looking for a park close to the door the lady in front of me pulled into the last "expectant mothers & caregivers with small children" parking spaces.
All good...there are heaps of parks clolse so I pootle into one, park up and got my boy out the car and over to the footpath. As I do this I watched that woman 'who parked in the mothers parks' get out of her car, lock it and sauntered into Starbucks. No kids in tow or left in the car, nor any car seats to be seen...btw clearly she was not an expectant mother (skinny as a rake she was so even is she were expecting it were the kind of expecting that doesn't make crossing a road difficult)
Typical! I thought and started to feel my blood boil.![]()
Then as I was getting my boy into the trolley for a ride around the supermarket I watch as a woman with 3 littlies all under 5, struggle to get them all out of the car and safely across to where I was. I offered to wait with her littlest one in the trolley next to me, and appreciatively and breathlessly she thanked me and got the other two out of their carseats.
Anyway the more I thought about this the more it pissed me off. SO feeling in the "dying for a round with someone' mood - I decided that I wouldn't just let it be and approached the biarch sitting on her bony arrogant arse in the coffee shop.
I said Excuse me, I just have to say this...I think it is very rude of you to park in those parks and then went on to explain about the lady with the three kids. To this the woman rolled her eyes and snarkily said "well good on you" to which I replied...Hmmm figures! Your an arrogant bitch - bet you park in handicap spaces too' turned on my heals and walked off...of course she reacted by shouting some verbal abuse of her own after me...i calmly spun back around and told her to "talk to the hand" and walked off...cos if I stuck around I know things may well have escalated.
Later as I perused the bread isle a little old lady approached me and said "good on you dear for having her up about that - it's just not on when people do that", and she went on to explain that she has a handicapped daughter who is constantly put out by people like this.
So we had a little chat about how Rude, arrogant people like that woman get away with this behaviour and continue it. Musing about whether because they mostly go unchallenged they continue and others also will do it without thinking too much about it. She agreed, but of course being a little old lady said she would never confront someone about it.
WELL I say - let's all stand up and let these pricks know that this is unacceptable and that while by 'parking there' (and that womans instance taking her sweet time in the coffee shop) they 'get away' with it I at least I hope I pissed her off and embarrased her enough that she might think twice about doing it next time.
Probably not though! The snooty bitch, while clearly riled and somewhat taken aback that I called her on it, in front of a full cafeteria of people is clearly the kind of muppet who doesn't give a shit about anyone beyond her own perfectly made up face - btw all that makeup wasn't really helping matters anyway!
PS: I wouldn't hesitate to do this again either and no I don't think that I should've been more polite about it...Fark her and anyone else who does this...to me there is NO excuse...and I don't think "I'm going to be really quick" is a good enough either.
