Hormones Aren’t The Only Thing Imbalanced
(After a long day, I sit down on the subway ride home. A few stops later, a clearly pregnant woman comes in, “Baby On Board” T-shirt and all. Trying to be polite, I ask her if she wants to sit down.)
Me: “Miss, would you like to sit down?”
Woman: “WHY?! DO YOU THINK I’M PREGNANT?!”
Me: *slightly confused* “No, miss. I just wanted to be polite.”
Woman: “Oh. Well. Okay. Keep your seat.”
(We remained in silence until shortly after the next stop.)
Woman: “YOU UNGRATEFUL LITTLE S***! I’M CARRYING ANOTHER SOON-TO-BE HUMAN, AND I’LL BE D***** IF YOU DON’T GET UP RIGHT THIS SECOND AND LET ME REST MY TIRED FEET. ”
Me: *slightly confused* “Of course. I’m sorry.”
(I got up and let her sit down. Of course, she got off at the next stop.)
