Fucking people with sick kids

As I type, I am surrounded by snotrags, a half empty bottle of NyQuill, and cough drops, mostly mine but a growing number belonging to the husband who took a little longer to come down with it. I can thank my newly added decor and screaming sinus headache to the parents of some sickass kids who just HAD to be brought to Thankgsiving dinner. Of course, they assured us it was ok because "They're on antibiotics!". Because you know, if the kids are on antibiotics, the rest of us will be immune to their plague. Morons. Both kids had a terrible time. They screamed and cried a solid 4 hours, all the while covered in boogers. I'm sure mom and dad had a good time though, and that's what counts, right? Can't have mom and dad left at home while fun things are happening elsewhere!

If you have kids, and they are sick, leave them the fuck home. No one wants to share in whatever nasty, snot inducing viral infection they're carrying. Taking them along to public functions only tells the rest of the world what a selfish fuck you really are. Trust me, your kids are not so entertaining that they're worth suffering a 102 degree fever for 2 days over. Stay home. We'll send a sacrificial lamb over with some food.
