If the shoe fits…

Mom: I forgot to tell you. I really enjoyed dinner last night.

Me: We had a great time too. John loves listening to you.

Mom: The boy needs to get a life.

Me: Yes we know that, but what makes you say it?

Mom: Your statement – John loves listening to you.

Me: But I love listening to you too, does that mean I need to get a life?

Mom: If the shoe fits

Me: Thanks

Mom: But I love you anyway.

      Sweety, teach your mother to say ‘thank you’ when given a compliment and then she won’t turn something nice into an insult. In fact if everyone learned to say ‘thank you’ when given a compliment we would not have so many of these conversations.

      I thought it was funny! Mom seems comfortable with them and with herself.

      Everyone commenting on this website needs to lighten up. Can’t a mom be cute from time to time? I agree with Brittany.

      Yup, gotta agree with Brittany and Dave. I think mom is very comfortable in her relationship with these two and was having some fun! Come on, let lighten up a little. There is already too much gloom and doom out there. This place is for fun and entertainment!

      Nic, let me guess, your family tree has no branches? right?

      Oh no! What am I going to do? Nic says I am a failure. OMG. The world is coming to an end, I might as well just leap off a tall building or jump in the raging river as I am now officailly a failure. Have mercy on me, the failure. HAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

      Nic,

      There was no point in your response. The only reason you posted was to comment (rudely) on Jeffrey G’s post, which honestly was not offensive in any way. Ergo, you Nic, are the idiot, and a waste of space. Leave this website to those of us who can play nicely.

      Actually, I agree that he’s an idiot.

      And he comments on just about every post on here. Stupidly comments, I should say.

      Yes, I also agree, and I believe his family tree might just be full of NUTS!
