This Guy Is My Hero

Apparently true, somewhere in the USA

A man treating himself to a Burger King after a long day’s work ended up buying all 23 of the restaurant’s remaining apple pies – because a screaming child standing behind him wanted one.

In a post on reddit, the user explained that a child was screaming and demanding pie from his mother, who was on the phone and ignoring him completely.

‘This kid was out of control, screaming, punching his mother, throwing around a gameboy whenever something didn’t go right in the game,’ he posted on the sub-reddit offmychest, where users make confessions.

‘She gets up in my face telling me I can’t tell her nothing about raising her child and to mind my own business,’ he goes on, saying that he asked the mother kindly to settle her child down after he screamed: ‘I want some f****** pie!’

Eat 23 of these? Challenge accepted, we say (Picture: Burger King)

‘I then decide to ruin their day,’ says the poster, who went and purchased every apple pie in the restaurant.

It sounds like a scene from a movie, and audiences would probably laugh and think the man had dealt with the woman and her child very creatively.

The poster finishes his confession by saying that as he left the Burger King, he heard the woman shout: ‘What do you mean you don’t have any pies left, who bought them all?’

He continued: ‘I turn around and see the cashier pointing me out with the woman shooting me a death glare.’

Priceless, love this guy

Good on him. And huge parenting fail to let a child be that unruly!

Precisely the kind of thing that keeps the jury out on me having children. My patience would not get that far.

My kids act like that then I would be buying the pies and make them watch as I eat them lol

hahahaha excellent

[jeebowhite]

that is pretty awesome!

Now I have two kids, the older (3) is a so and so, certainly knows what he wants and he doesnt always deal with things properly. But I try to listen, and I try if nothing else to buy his silence with something else like watching his favourite movie when we get home, or if he truely insists on a toy, then just buy him a cheaper toy.

I have never been ont he phone, alone with him in the same scenario as that woman was, but I would personally have ended the call, and tried to deal with the child. she clearly wasnt exhibiting the best parenting techniques that day.
