Frankie Says RELAX
So yesterday, I was thinking about pregnant women. Or rather, the people who treat those women like they're disabled. I heard a guy reprimanding his wife over the phone for being out so late (it was 6.30pm), in the same tone you might use towards a child who insisted on repeatedly hiding your car keys.... "If I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times!". He then got quite animated, almost angry, and started shouting "Will you just RELAX! Go home, RELAX! If you can't relax, then how the HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO RELAX?!?!" Personally, I've found that shouting RELAX at un-relaxed people isn't particularly conducive to... well, anything. I guess there's two sides to this story - namely, the women who act like they're carrying a super-sensitive touch-activated body-cavity bomb rather than a child. Well, maybe someone should organize a speed-dating event for men who shout RELAX with self-pitying pregnant women who find a man shouting RELAX at them, RELAXING.
