If that is the case, then I would have to say, really, how many of us have said things under our breath or even whispered, that could have hurt the person who heard it? What makes it so different or GHETTO because she happened to be overheard? And would it have been different if the young lady had been grown? I could go take a look at the DO NOT.COM thread and pull a couple of not so nice things from that. I guess it's different if you say it behind someone's back? That's tactful?  I think that's phony. Just my .08 . . .

Soror Ideal 08, you are correct. I was speaking to my fiance when I made the comment. Y'all know how noisy and crowded the mall can be at times, especially on a Saturday afternoon. I was talking a bit louder to ensure that he was able to hear me.
However, Littlebitty made the comment that I insulted her in a public place. She embarrassed herself in a public place by entering the public wearing her outfit. Just like a celebrity, they take a chance either being critisized or adored by the public. I critisized her. If she was wearing a fly outfit, I would have said that what she was wearing was nice. Either way, my comment would still not have been directed to her, but my shopping companion.
