I'm starting to be that old man...."Get off my grass you damn kids!" As I shake my mash paddle at them.
I'm starting to think that way more and more as I age.
I went to dinner last night at a charity spaghetti dinner. The table next to us was filled with women and children. The women piled up their purses and diaper bags on our table. They did this before we got there. As we sat down they had no compunction to move their crap. I had my son sit right next to it so he could flip and slop spaghetti sauce all over their bags.
So if you knew if the items belonged to them how hard would it have been to say "are these you're items on our table?" And asked them to remove them? If they gave you the "oh yes but we don't have room" excuse you could have replied with "oh I'm sorry that is unfortunate however we don't have room for your things at our table either so if you would like I can remove them for you or you can find room for them" instead of passive aggressively having your kid fling food at them and eat like white trash in a trailer park on a drunkfriday night instead of eating like a kid who goes out in public often.
