    You got that, right-- she'd have been picking herself up off the floor...



    hitting a person for the stupid things that come out of their mouth isn't much better... :frown:
  • OMG sorry that happened to you! What city and state do you live in?? Better you than me, because she would have gotten an earful from me..

    It's called sarcasm. I don't believe this person would actually hit someone over it.

    Indeed...... but she'd have gotten one devil of a tongue lashing, that's for sure.....

    Who the hell says that? What a complete b****. There is absolutely nothing in this world that I would like better than to be able to kick evil people like that lady. I'm so sorry that she was so cruel...you're beautiful so don't let her get ya down.

    I've spent years studying people and interviewing probably thousands of people about health issues and otherwise. There are a ton of unstable people out there, people who say whatever they want and occasionally get their clocks cleaned yet keep running their mouths off. Without naming any specific diagnoses, she sounds very unstable. First, if you don't like what you see, don't look (that's what a normal person would do, right?). Second, if you can't look away, the frontal part of your brain stops you from saying something so insulting you could get hurt (a normal brain works that way). Third, even if you have trouble stopping yourself from saying something, your morals would stop you from saying something hurtful, right? (because that's how a normal person operates).

    OP, I hope you understand that woman had a problem that had nothing to do with you or your weight.

    OMMMMMMMG! How can people be so crule. I hate this world how IT came to. Im short and I had people call me midget, shorty, prego ect..

    I haven't been on MFP for very long and have not posted anything yet. I feel the need to post this because I cannot believe how rude some people can be!! Not people on here, people in public...
    I took my three year old to Dunkin Donuts this AM because I promised him a hot chocolate... I was good, I got a small tea with skim milk and splenda... No donut, muffin or greasy sandwiches... Some lady was staring at me making the strangest face...
    So I said to her, "do we know eachother?" I was very friendly... She said "No I just really hate watching fat people eat!"
    I was devastated!! I wasn't even eating, I had a tea... I must admit, I cried on the way home:(

    Did the Tea scald her when you tossed it in her face?

    That's what I would have done and then said I think her new scarred face grosses me out when this fat person is trying to eat

    What a pathetic person! She's clearly so miserable and angry that she can only get relief by tormenting a complete stranger. Probably was the queen bully in high school and her life has been downhill ever since.

    You should feel sorry for her, but only because doing to her as she deserves would involve a certain amount of paperwork down at the local homicide division. If I were a judge, I'd let you off, though. Justifiable homicide for sure.

    I think most people are just using hyperbole. Although, I think hitting her would be much better than what she did. She was needlessly cruel to a mother in front of her child. Most people are reacting with a visceral need to protect one of "our own", our MFP comrade.

    Would I really snap her neck? Probably not....in front of kids. ;-)

    I'm sorry, why should someone like that be allowed to live? If she's cruel to random strangers, you can bet she's cruel to everyone else she comes into contact with, too. She's a psychopath, and however she got to the point in her life where she's attacking strangers in public, she needs to either be locked up until she's cured or removed some other way from the population.

    Only a sick society like ours would allow someone like her to walk the streets.
  • That is absolutely atrocious! I am really sorry that you had to experience that. People can be so rude and immature. You just keep on with your healthful lifestyle change! Day by day. Next thing you know bam! You've reached your goal! Then the next hurdle is how to keep it off! I hope the rest of your day was better! :flowerforyou:

    Because burn survivors with facial scars are totally fair game, hm?

    GFY ,i,,
  • omg that is absolutely terrible!!! I can't imagine how I would've reacted to that !?! Probably the same as you.
    So sorry you had such an asweful rude person say that to you :(:(

    If she hates seeing what she calls 'fat people' eat, why was she staring anyway (even though you weren't eating)?

    THIS!

    I would have a handful of quotes for when you see her again. I would make it my mission to live at that Dunkin Donuts until she walks in again. Then let her have it!

    Best one for that situation: "Oh yeah, well the jerk store called -- they're all out of you!"

    I know that you were hurt. I would have been too! I am so proud of you. You showed so much class by not cussing the rude so & so & so & so out. You showed her that you were the better person with manners, dignity and class! WAY TO GO GIRL!

    She did it to get her victim's attention, with the sole purpose of attacking and causing harm to her victim.

    that is just rude beyond rude. people have no consideration for others at ALL! all you need are the people on here for support. i know sometimes the cold hard truth can be heartbreaking but at least you are trying to do something to change that about yourself. we are all in this together and if we can all support one another, we will all be better off as a whole. good luck to you and your journey!

    Surely you cannot be serious. I know some people have made joking references to violence, but I've read through this thread and see people condoning real violence in this situation.

    It's bad enough reading all the judgments about this person's character, the diagnosis of her motives, why she is a bad person or evil - all based on one reported incident, knowing no details about this person. But I am flabbergasted at the suggestions and support for violence. Because of a cruel comment made in a Dunkin Donuts. Are we really that barbaric? Some of you scare me.

    Explain to me how telling the OP that the person who spoke to her so rudely deserves physical harm (even death) is supposed to make the OP feel better. Yes, the lady at Dunkin Donuts was insensitive and cruel. And she probably deserved to be told off/embarrassed in some way. But hot tea in her face? Punching her in the face? Not being allowed to live? I sure hope those of you so quick to judge and condemn aren't serving on a jury when I or someone I love is in court.

    My favorite part about all of this is the OP coming back to post how she handled things with class and dignity:
    I cannot thank all of you nearly as much as I want to!!
    I have never felt so humiliated in my entire life.... There were people in Dunkin Donuts that heard her say that to me and they all looked shocked.. I felt terrible, i just got up and left. The fact that I only bought a tea was a huge accomplishment for me and I was feeling pretty good about that...
    I don't why people act like that.. Have they no compassion? I am not a person who would say something mean to a person simply because they said something mean to me.... Although if I ever choose to... I have plenty of comebacks now. It feels really good to hear so many people encouraging me.. I'm not going to let her ruin my day...
    Did I mention, she wasn't all that thin herself???
    Sometimes letting people live in the aftermath of their own actions is the best kind of "justice."

    I'm glad you didn't let it ruin your day, glad you got so much support in this thread (the nonviolent ones at least), and glad you are making healthy decisions in your life. You are in control of your own well-being.

    Okay, so, I have a plan.

    Tomorrow morning, we will meet up with you at your Dunkin Donuts, all 11 pages of us, so we can take turns chewing this lady out for you.

    Can we also take a swing at her? Oh pleeeeease say we can take a swing at her!!!
    Also, 11 pages worth of us showing up is a bit too intimidating. God forbid she sees the pile of people coming for that *kitten*, and chokes to death on her bagel.

    We can do it in shifts and stage it like we are customers.

    Jail is gonna be a blast.. because no matter how I start the scenario in my mind, it always ends with a judge pointing at me and saying, ".....May God have mercy on your soul!'

    Bless your heart! I am not sure what I would have done but I know if my ten year old would have heard it, he would have jumped to my defense!
