Poor you!
Thinking back, though, I did meet someone who was a bit naive when it came to engaging brain before opening mouth.
It was at a time when brown was in vogue, and fringed lampshades were in vogue, and a couple of other things which I can't remember.
My acquaintance was sitting in my room which had all these things a, b, c, d, as part of the decor, and she proceeded to say how naff a, b, c and d were! (She didn't use the word naff, but that was what she meant!)
I just grinned and tried to change the subject as I didn't want to embarrass her.
However, a short while later, she must have looked around her, and realised what she had said, so she did apologise!
This sort of thing happened a lot with this person, but it wasn't malicious, like Pauline, just naive, like Kelly. Quite funny, really!
Come to think of it, I did experience the whingy, selfish parent thing as well!
