It doesn’t take very long out in a public place until you will eventually run across a child that is not necessarily minding their manners. It has happened to all of us and sometimes, we may even be the parent of that child who just seems to be having a bad day. For the man in the story, however, he had just had enough and wasn’t going to take it anymore.
After the man did what he did, he turned around and shared the story on Reddit. The child, according to him, was acting up as soon as he entered into the fast food chain and the mother and child were standing in line behind him. As it turns out, it was more than this man can handle.
“This kid was out of control, screaming, punching his mother throwing around a gameboy whenever something didn’t go right in the game,” Redditor THR111 wrote. “The mother didn’t seem to pay any attention to him and his continued yelling of ‘I want a f***ing PIE’. After about 5 minutes of the line with these people behind me, I had gone from a headache to a full on migraine…”
The man asked the mother to take the child out of the line but she didn’t respond well to his suggestion: “I calmly turn and ask her nicely if she can please calm or quiet her child down. Immediately she gets up in my face telling me I can’t tell her nothing about raising her child and to mind my own business. I nod and turn around, she’s still yelling at the back of my head when the child cries out again how he wants a pie, the mother consoles him, calling him sweety and ensuring they’ll get pies for lunch because she loves him so much.”
For several minutes, the issue continued until the man ended up at the front of the line. He knew he couldn’t let the child off the hook so he did something teach him a lesson.
“All I can think of is how the people behind me ruined my splurge and gave me this headache. I then decide to ruin their day. I order every pie they have left in addition to my burgers. Turned out to be 23 pies in total, I take my order and walk towards the exit,”
“Moments later I hear the woman yelling, what do you mean you don’t have any pies left, who bought them all? I turn around and see the cashier pointing me out with the woman shooting me a death glare. I stand there and pull out a pie and slowly start eating eat as I stare back at her. She starts running towards me but can’t get to me because of other lineups in the food court. I turn and slowly walk away.”
