Comment of the day

Today I told work that I'm pregnant, and that I'm having twins. They all congratulated me, and then one of my technicians said...

"You're going to look scary."  And he chuckled.

I'm not even offended by this b/c it's such a ridiculous thing to say.  All I could do was laugh. He's a bit socially awkward (shocker). But WTF.

 

Edited to fix grammar.

    Rude.  I'm sorry. It seems like you had a good attitude about it .

  • I'm glad you have a good attitude about it. I probably would've replied with something snarky like, "Scary how? Am I growing a monster head alongside nurturing two precious lives inside my belly?" ;)

    His explanation was that I am "a normal-sized person, and I'm going to get this huge belly, so it's going to look funnier than if I was heavy to begin with."

    Huh?

    Yeah, that's a odd comment. Some people have no filters.

     

    Speak sweetly so that if you ever have to eat your words, they don't taste bad.

    Lesson learned!!

  • I would have gone 3rd grade on him and said "Not as funny as you look right now!" ... But then my coworkers have come to expect my random outbursts.
