B and I were at the grocery store earlier this week when we were stopped by an elderly gentleman. It isn't super unusual for people to stop and admire little B (what's with people touching his face though? How would you like it if a stranger came up and stroked your cheek?), but I was surprised when he said, "Well isn't someone underfed?!" with a jovial grin. My initial thought was, "well, it isn't you!", but I plastered on a smile to match my forced laugh and said something a long the lines of "oh I guess we better work on that!" before pushing the cart away. We then spent the rest of our trip avoiding aisles that this man was down.
Seriously? What kind of comment is that? He was probably going for something more along the lines of "He's just a little guy!" but even then, how does he know? Sometimes you just have to shake your head and laugh.
