We walked up to the grocery store after school today (oh yeah, if I ever finished that post about our new house, you’d know that we are 2.5 blocks from a grocery store!) and Mallory rode her pink bike and wore her pink helmet. This was the first time she could ride her pink bike to the store because we just got her a pink bike lock.
So as we locked up her pink bike with her pink bike lock, and she took off her pink Princess helmet and hung it on the handlebars of her pink bike, a nice gentleman walking by commented “Hmm…looks like someone likes pink!”
Um, ya think?
I should add that while she didn’t have pink clothes on, she wore her not-very-good-for-bike-riding white patent leather mary janes.
He wasn’t probably too swift with the ladies growing up either. Dumb@$$.
Hey, you ladies are mean. He was trying to make conversation with the little lady, he wasn’t trying to impress Sam with his infinite wisdom. You usually have to go with something simple to get a giggle from a kid. I don’t think you would have been that much more impressed if he came up and ask “Do you think the Ancien Regime was too hasty causing the French Revolution for economic reasons or were there other underlying fiscal gains to be had?”. I’m guessing he got a cuter smile out of her with the ‘pink’ comment.
No wonder men are so afraid.
