    "Why didn't you tell me you're Hispanic, I guess I should have known from your *kitten*"

    When I was a waitress and these 2 women were talking badly about the place in Spanish and I wished them goodbye in it.
    Like if I was Caucasian you'd just have thought I was fat? My thighs/butt have always been my weight gain spot.

    This was just a funny case of instant karma I wanted to share.

    I was on my first day in a brand new high school and a girl walked up to me. I was painfully shy and was hoping she would want to be friends.
    She said (in the snarkiest tone ever): "What does it feel like?" I gave a puzzled look. She continued: "To be way taller than all the other girls, it must be embarassing.".
    I was crushed. :(

    Suddenly a basketball flew out of nowhere and broke her nose. The person who threw the basketball (not on purpose!) would later be my boyfriend of 4 years. True story. :)

    My ex explaining why he dumped me for someone else: "My dad is fine with us being friends because he thinks your personality is perfect for me. It's just that he thinks you're too short and big for me to date." I'm 5'4" and at the time I was 120 lbs.

    When I was in middle school, one of the "pretty" girls came up to me and said, "Your so lucky!!!!!!". I looked at her and asked why. She said, "Cause you have the biggest boobs in the class". I was mortified. I legitimately thought about killing myself that night.

    I am glad that you did not kill yourself. Bullies are dumb :(

    From friend I haven't seen since college introducing me to his wife

    "This guy used to be one handsome MF. Dude, how many lbs have you gained since I last saw you. A 100?"

    *kitten* off, only 60 but who's counting?

    My future mother in law the first time I met her and my son:

    Kadin, my son "My Mom has an exercize ball like that! She keeps it in the front closet!"

    The Monster in Law: "Oh that's a real good place for it" Rolling her eyes.

    Awkward!!! O_o Hence the year long icky future mother in law dread.

    something that's not really an insult,but still makes me feel bad. when ever I'm dieting and my huuby and I visit his dad and step-mom (yes, the jeans mother in law) she knows I'm dieting, and gets offended when I don'tt eat fired chicken, chocolate cake, things like that. she goes on "I thought you liked my cooking, I made this for you." really? Her cooking is awesome, but not diet friendly.

    "Oh, what a gorgeous baby! Is he your grandson?" Ummm, no. I guess I just look about 20 years older than I am. Great.

    Im not sure if this is an insult yet I somehow always feel insulted when its said to me. "you look amazing for a mother of 6" (not sure what to make of it) also when told I was a mother of 6 the lady said "but you're so beautiful" wtf?

    I'd take this as a huge compliment...
