Female pediatric resident: "Why are you STILL breastfeeding?!"

Mother: "Where did YOU go to medical school?  A correspondence course?"  OR

        "Where did YOU go to finishing school?  On a pirate ship?" OR

        "Where'd you get your license, in a box of Cracker Jacks?"  OR

        [sickly sweet voice]  "Would you like me to send you some research
on how long children should be nursed, since your education seems to be a
little, shall we say, *lacking* on this subject?  Please write down your
name and address so I can send you some references."

Let's start up a thread of snappy comebacks to stupid remarks . . .
