Mom: i was so mad @ dad cause he had a swearing meltdown in the car; he dropped me off @ pig to get a few things & he went to get coffee. when i was done (it was slow cause they had no cashier so the checker didn’t know what she was doing, but I was patient) and got in the car he had a fit, his coffee was cold, if he knew i was going to buy more than one thing he’d have made me go alone. SO I got home and wrote “you suck” in lipstick on the bathroom mirror AND on his tribune daily crossword…it was usuck across and crabass down…it worked quite well…i’m not going to take that verbal abuse so i have ways of making myself feel better: leave notes and clean and make lots of noise while he’s reading the paper. Sometimes it’s so much fun being married

Ah, good ol’ mom. But you guys left off the second part! She went on to say:
Mom: he’s just so lucky to be married to a calm, positive, cheery, fun person like me and not someone like him OR HE’D BE DEAD!!!!!!! LOL
I’m just glad she keeps herself busy. :-p
August 15, 2008 at 1:38 pm
i love this mom – she doesn’t take shit. highfive to her! had a good laugh at this ending:
“Sometimes it’s so much fun being married”
August 15, 2008 at 1:47 pm
I think….if my mom was as creative as yours, and my father read the paper…they’d still be married! :o) Go Mom!
August 15, 2008 at 2:00 pm
a little passive agressive mom?
August 15, 2008 at 2:14 pm
Sounds like DAD is a little over-dependent on that coffee… Green tea would be more calming.. Or he could just get it himself…
August 15, 2008 at 2:18 pm
Nice! I would love to see what the lipstick and crossword looked like!
See if you can get her to take pictures and post them on

I love this mom.
August 16, 2008 at 10:43 pm
OMG! I laughed out loud!
August 18, 2008 at 8:50 pm
Sounds more like my boyfriend and me than my mom and step-dad. LOVE the passive aggressiveness. I read ‘tribune’ and ‘pig’ could this be a Minnesota nice thing?

This is by far my favorite post on this site.

I could be best friends with this lady…..excellent retribution, honey. Non-violent (you know you thought about it!) and verrrrry creative. I just match up my husbands navy blue socks with his black ones, then laugh to myself as he goes off to work wearing one of each.
