175. yes, it really does. a baby wearing a poopy diaper smells a creat deal less than opening that poopy

Fri May 17, 2013, 09:39 PM

May 2013

diaper, wiping off the poopy baby (& possibly dribbling/spraying feces around), ?& depositing said poopy diaper & rags -- where, exactly? in the food service garbage? or did they carry the poopy diaper back to the restroom garbage, dribbling poop as they went?

They were 'making a midnight coffee run'. If the kid had a clean diaper when they left & pooped on the way they could have changed him in their car either before or after or while the other got the coffee. Or on the floor of the bathroom or outside the establishment or they could have waited until they got home.

If the kid was so freaking stinky one of them could have held him outside or in the car while the other parent got the coffee.

If the kid didn't have a clean diaper before they went on their 'coffee run,' they could have changed it at home before they went to a food establishment.

Changing a diaper in a public dining area is *disgusting*. Disgusting, low class, moronic.
