but speaking of things you should never do in a restaurant… when a waiter serves yummy, greasy potato skins, he shuold not say “i’ll put this in front of you cause you’re the fatter one.” All 5’3, 110 pounds of me was enraged! Who says that when they’re giving a girl greasy food!!?! His tip should’ve been a kick in the pants.

Anyways, that’s just rude an inconsiderate. They give toothpicks at restaurants for a more subtle way to get chicken out of teeth.

It’s sad that you, and so many women it seems, do not realize that loads of people right here in Manhattan find swearing (and that phrase in particular) offensive- especially by attractive, articulate young women. Plenty of men and women, none of us “righteous” or prudes- love living in this great city, but want to raise our children to have manners, choose nice friends, and respect others. My mother often tells me how “in her day”, if a man accidently swore in front of a woman, if she was a “nice girl” he would be embarrassed and apologize. My son, age 6, recently overheard your phrase for the first time, spoken by the adorable teenaged daughter of a friend, whom he loves. I must be honest and tell you I definitely would’ve given you more than a sideways glance if I’d heard you use that phrase with no regard for who could hear you. I may have asked you to apologize to my son.
