So, I almost got in a fight at work today.
Bullies are where you find them. (Also, my legal defense should the worst happen.)
I was stocking merchandise this morning and happened to notice a woman shopping for adorable outfits for her adorable baby. Her shopping cart was positioned in a way that when I looked at the end of the aisle I could see her tiny baby.
Staring at me with this look on her face: >:(((((((((((((((((((((((((((
I tried smiling at the baby because, no lie, most adorable baby ever, okay? No reaction. I waved. Again, no reaction. Not wanting to come across as a creeper should the mom look up and wonder why the store employee stocking the shelves was making goofy faces at her baby, I decided to get back to work.
Ten minutes later I look up, and realize the baby is still staring at me with this face: >:((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
A few minutes later a co-worker on his break came over to ask me something, and while we were talking stopped mid-sentence. When I looked up to ask what was wrong he just said, "That baby is trying to kill you with her brain."
I looked over and, indeed, it seemed as if the baby was trying to kill me with her tiny, adorable baby brain. Also, still glaring, like so: >:(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
After that, I begged my friend not to leave (his shift ended before mine) and to stay and defend me against the baby-hate, but he just laughed - laughed! - and made jokes about the baby wanting to fight me and otherwise acted as though I was being silly and not at all as though my life was in danger. (It may still be as I lost track of the baby, and she could be anywhere. Anywhere.)
