I hate the kid sitting next to me at Panera.

[apocalypsos]

Or at least, at the next table.

When I started setting up my netbook on the very next table over (so, like, four feet away from him), he said loudly in a snotty tone of voice to his sister (his mom and other sister were elsewhere) while my back was turned to him, "Oh, I've seen those. I would never get one, though, because they're five hundred bucks and the battery doesn't even last that long."

Dude, you are eight AT THE MOST. Shut it, grasshopper.

And then later on he was whining to his mother because she wouldn't say yes to getting him one of those little gas motorbikes and then complained when she said she didn't spend the same amount on their Easter gifts as she would on their Christmas presents.

I miss those really sweet kids from that one Panera trip who sat quietly and read their thirty-year-old cookbooks. *sigh*

Wow, spoiled brat much? Easter gifts? I never got any Easter gifts, kid. You're lucky to be getting anything at all, especially in this economy. STFU.

Oh, the best was when he was asking if they could get fireworks. "Can we get 500s? You don't know what those are, but ..."

If I had talked to my mother like that at his age, my ears would STILL be ringing.

seriously, if there was a tiny teddy bear or something in the basket with the chocolate, that was a good year for easter presents.

My netbook was $400 and the battery lasts about seven hours with the wi-fi on.

Little kid needs a smacking.

Easter presents? WTF? We were lucky if we got chocolate.

Entitlement bitch, please.

Easter presents for me were little candies in those reusable plastic eggs, hidden all over the yard. And those eggs were reused -- after Easter mom confiscated them and used them again the next year. This kid has NO IDEA.

He sounds like Dudley.
