Backstory: I am getting married in 20 days, and my Mom is DIYing her little heart out. The current craft is putting together photo frames with the photos from our relatives’ weddings. Mom wanted to use plastic frames, and I told her not to bother, that I’d take care of it. This was her response.
ok, so what would you like? Surely I have more time to futz than you? Give me clear instructions, mein general, and i’m off and running, glue gun in hand.
I was using the glue gun yesterday and your dad about plotzed. “Where did you get that? Did you buy that just for the wedding?” As if. I only bought the paper cutter for the wedding. Your insane mom
lol , have fun and congrats

the ‘as if’ is priceless.

Um… glue guns only cost a few dollars. But I guess the nature of weddings (and paying for weddings) can make every single penny seem like a crisp $100 bill flying out the window.

The best part of this is that my mother has never in my life used Yiddish in conversation.

at least she admits to being crazy… how many mom’s do that?!

Is that Yiddish or Pennsylvania Dutch? Not that there’s much of a difference…
