The Stroller Controversy

[nedrazeall]

As I sit waiting for my bus back to New York from DC this woman comes in to the cafe and struggles a little with getting her stroller, one of those that is a carseat inside a stroller frame, inside the doors. This asshole watches her and when she walks away he and his two friends chuckle and then he says, He's a little old to be in a stroller. And

I was thinking about getting a stroller for myself, except I can't find anyone to push me around.

Well, I can find people to push me around metaphorically but that's not quite as good.

They do make them in your size. They call them wheelchairs.

I think this might be the way to go:

[nedrazeall]

I think they only give you those if you are over 300 pounds.

i will always be a city girl at heart. shit...i never leave the house w/o a stroller. no friggin' way. esp with 2 kids. let people judge me. they can kiss my royal ass!

She's lucky if I don't have her sitting in that stroller until she is 16. Talk about a chastity belt.

[lovesprout]

I just got an image of that. ROTFL!

Strollers sound reasonable to me.

Everyone deserves a luxury limo.

[blackromeo]

That's a lot of luxury limos...

Am I fooling myself in thinking if I had a child I could carry it everywhere?

[bightchee]

Only after I clicked "post" did I realize the icon I was using was of a guy covered in babies.

[nedrazeall]

Babies! I always wonder what he was covered in.

[nedrazeall]

You're a big guy, you might be able to do that for a while but once the get old enough to squirm and want to walk in inappropriate times you will want to have that stroller.

So yes, you are fooling yourself.
