Someone at work just asked me if I had "a bun in the oven."

Did you destroy this person? If so, can I have that person's job?

NEVER ASK A WOMAN IF SHE'S PREGNANT UNLESS YOU SEE A BABY COMING OUT OF HER VAGINA! GAH!

then again amyb if the baby is coming out of her vagina, she's not exactly pregnant any more. GAH!

I hope you put them in their place rubber nun

Surely this person just meant to ask for one of your fabulous fruit pastry recipes, and expressed him- or herself poorly.

My favorite example of this was when an unknown woman asked this of my friend, who was holding her six-month-old baby at the time. I mean, yes, she had a bit of a belly, but all the explanation one could possibly want was in her arms drooling. And that's assuming any explanation was merited in any event.

This question says a lot about the person who asks it. BTW, have you seen this:
