I am working in a bookstore. A very famous person was signing books at said bookstore last week. A very polite and well-dressed father came in with his 4(ish) year old daughter in a cute dress sitting in a stroller to meet said very famous person.
Miss Print (MP) completes transaction with Very Polite and Well-Dressed Father (VPW-DF) and turns to Daughter in Cute Dress (DCD).
MP: That’s a very pretty dress you have on.
DCD: I hate you. It’s my dress. You can’t have it.
MP and VPW-DF: Stunned Silence
MP: Well . . . it looks very nice on you.
DCD: Turns head away in disgust.
VPW-DF apologizes profusely before wheeling stroller away.
So . . . that happened. I can only imagine what the daughter had to say to the very famous person.
