My mother is literally insane. I am convinced she is completely crazed…
Oh, yeah, she’ll act like she’s just making friendly conversation, but then it just doesn’t stop. I’m at the age where I require to be driven around places, still (for fucks sake, give me a car already) so whenever my mother and I are in the car together, she insists on talking to me the enitre time. I usually listen to my iPod in the car, so it’s really fucking annoying when someone is talking to you and you’re trying to listen to music.
I’ve told her politely, BEGGED HER, pleaded with her and even sat her down one night and explained to her why I really need her to shut the fuck up. No. That just isn’t her way. She’ll start rambling on to me about the most pointless garbage, then I will politely tell her to be quiet, and that I CANNOT HEAR HER, and she’ll shut up. Five minutes later, she’s blithering away again. Repeat this cycle for twenty minutes and you’ve got a passenger who is literally about to jump out of the window.
Does she have amnesia? Is she a narcissist? Or is she just an idiot? I presume all three, but come two years from now I’m leaving and I’m never coming back. SHUT THE FUCK UP MOM, SHUT THE FUCK UP.—I HATE HER SO MUCH
This article appears in Apr 1-7, 2010.
you shut up, you ungrateful little idiot.
Here’s the thing: it’s HER car, get it? SHE is paying for it, and the gas, and is probably thrilled to be getting your obnoxious little self out of HER house. SHE can talk ALL she wants, and there is not a damned thing you can do about it.
The polite thing for YOU to do is LISTEN when another person is speaking to you, and PARTICIPATE in the conversation like a REAL HUMAN BEING.
I think she should stop driving you places. Take the bus, you ignorant little moron.
Exactly what age are you at that you still need rides everywhere? You sound like a rotten, spoiled, self-righteous / self-entitled teenager to me. Give you a fucking car!? Do what I did. Go out and get a fucking job and pay for the car yourself.
By the way. Why wait two more years from sucking on your mom’s teet. Just leave and get out on your own if it annoys you that much.
One day you will no longer have a mother and you will be wishing you could hear her voice just one more time.
Maybe she’s trying to communicate with you, you stupid, self-centered little twat. Your own car? Go out and earn the money, loser, your mother owes you NOTHING but a well-placed boot to the head. Ungrateful brat. I wouldn’t drive the fucking likes of you anywhere.
Didn’t this OP make an eerily similar rant a few months back.
Christ man, you’re turning into Norman Bates.
You an ungrateful twat. Your mother loves you.
Fucking cherish that until the day she dies.
Some of us wish our mothers were even sober enough to drive us around XD and all you want is a car..
I hope you get one, and then roll it 38 times to your well deserved death you self centered fucking dolt.
‘Oh my god shut up, im trying to listen to taylor swift, because her music is meaningful and says everything about my teenage angst, and my loving mother who wants to raise me right has nothing important to bring to the table.’
Stop bitching, you damn cripple. If you can operate an iPod you can take a bus then.
you little shit; shut your cake hole and appreciate the fact that your mother gives a flying fuck enough to talk to your dumbass; maybe try carrying a civil conversation not involving video games; songs about ho’s and bling; and you beeatch; damn kids !
Jesus Christ, YOU shut up. You’re a spoiled little fuck, and I hope someone jabs that iPod up your ass sideways.
you are at that age, what, about 10-12? and your mom is insane, why, for imparting some experienced wisdom on you. smoke some more crack, it’s okay, it’s good for you, all my martian friends tell me it is.
Ruby, there is one thing the OB can do. Take her precious, princess little twat out of the vheicle and fucking walk. maybe her mother will read this and put on some Mozart, Brahams, Beethoven, Bach, etc on the stereo full blast.
She probably is lonely. You’ll miss her when she’s dead. Or will you?
“I require to be driven around places” hahaha you lazy ingrate, my parents never drove me anywhere. Yeah, move out in two years and flounder, you fucking child. Sadly I bet if they’re the type that ferry you around everywhere in the car and raised you to be the spoiled pratt you are I bet they’ll do your biding even when you’ve moved out, but I can wish.
Prediction: all your future roommates will despise you for being a lazy hipster idiot and you’ll believe it’s them, not you
I don’t think the writer is a spoiled brat . . . well, maybe, but I think everyone’s missing the point here. The point is that, although the mother has been told repeatedly that the young person is not listening to her–is listening to music, even!–the mother insists on prattling away. It sounds like she is happy to yak, but not to listen, herself . . . and you wonder why the young person doesn’t want to listen?!
Before someone starts slaggin’ on ME, I am an adult. And I put up with my fair share of people who won’t shut the hell up. People on planes, people on the bus, my husband’s friends. One person in particular I work with, and it’s a situation where I can’t just walk away from him (otherwise, let me tell you, I WOULD), and I can’t tell him to piss off, either; instead, I immerse myself in my work and tell him I am busy so I can’t listen right now–much as the writer here has done. Do you think he listens to what I have told him? Just like the mom, he does NOT. He yaps and mumbles away, and I just don’t respond.
That’s my advice for you, writer. Stop responding. Don’t make eye contact, keep your head down and your iPod on. Sure, you may “miss her when she’s dead” and all that BS, as all these other “kind” people have pointed out. But that doesn’t mean you have to listen to garbage spewing from her mouth while she’s alive.
Why don’t you walk ?
You selfabsorbed ungrateful waste of food.
I’ve never been a fan of corporal punishment for children…but for you I would gladly knock you the fuck out. Then when you wake up ,you would have the fear of a repeat occurrence & would walk softly & appreciate the fact your mother takes the time to help you out.
I am so happy today, knowing this PoS isn’t one of my kid’s !
And what’s on tap for today, Spanky.? Derail a train or hang a cat? Kids like you are the reason that abortions shouldn’t just be legal, but mandatory in some cases, retroactive with, say , a 16 year statute of limitations. But then it would be called capital punishment and not quite the triumph of social justice that was originally intended. There’s a sasquatch size Greb work boot somewhre out there just itching to meet your ass. Hope it does some good.
Listen, you’re bloody lucky to have an ipod. When I was a kid and we lived in the sticks in NB – no buses there – before I got my license, we had to live by the rule “when you get your own car, you can pick the music.” Jimmy Buffet, Celine Dion, ABBA, CBC Radio (I still abhore talk radio) – I would have rather started a conversation than listened to any of them. You’re at an age when you think you know everything, but you should count your lucky stars your mom is there. You never know when she won’t be, and then you’ll regret all the times you asked her to shut up.
mr. sonofabitch! nice to read your words
Thank you Paingirl. How are your corbies doing? I celebrate the cwucifixion by worshiping both the bunny and the lamb so my squadron of “Schwartzer Engelen” feasted on ovine fat yesterday morning. No nestlings yet, though
my lovelies had piggie lard as well..lots of canoodling and nest building but no wee ones yet^^
That’s all and well Letta, but you were WORKING…AT WORK being bothered by a co-worker. OP is listening to her fucking iPod in the car as her MOTHER drives her around. There’s a difference. I can’t even describe how rude it is for someone to listen to their iPod in the car when being given a left to begin with…especially if there’s only two of you in the car and you’re sitting up front with your “chauffeur”. If I was driving someone around and they plugged in their ear-buds I’d be insulted…If it was my kid I’d take the fucking iPod away until they learned some courtesy and conversational sills, or stopped giving them rides altogether. If OP takes your advice and just completely ignores their mom, they will have sunk to a new low. I don’t trust that OP’s mom is as crazy and annoying at all, she’s probably just trying to connect with her self absorbed teen kid, haven’t all moms been there? Haven’t all teenagers exaggerated the annoying-ness of their parents? OP if you really must listen to your music instead of interact with your mom who is nice enough to drive you everywhere, take the fucking bus, or buy your own car.
You are some lucky you’re not my kid…
@fizz QFT
Fizz I don’t know about you or the rest of the posters here..but has anyone else heard about parents need to talk to & listen to their children more.
Seems that’s not the problem…the problem is children refuse to listen, refuse to talk & tune their parents out,with Ipods & portable games etc. They want to do that, let them take a bus or walk. Because if it was me, they wouldn’t be getting in my truck (or car) with that attitude & that BS playing over top of life around them !
They want to be treated like adults respected as adults yada yada yada.
But we have to drive them, we have to buy for them , we have to do for them & they only really want to be treated like an adult, when IT SUITS THEM !
funny ole world isn’t it !
when she’s gone forever you’ll wish you never said those things.
Most people, between the ages of 12-17, thought that their parents were a huge drag… it’s all part of the angst. If chatting with your mother is such a hardship, walk, bus it, or ride your bike. Asking someone to drive you somewhere then ignoring them the whole time you’re in the car isn’t very nice and if you’ve got the kind of mom who is willing to spend her time transporting you from place to place, she deserves better.
Grow some balls, and move out while you’re still an invincible knowitall at 15. Good luck, have fun, and expect to move back with mommy in a week.
Wait, you were literally about to jump out of the window?….LITERALLY?
Either you don’t know what the definition of “literally” is or you have a mental imbalance and/or impulse control problem for trying to jump out of a moving car.
I wish she would have literally jumped out the window…
Yes, I too was concerned about OP’s mental health when she mentioned that she “is LITERALLY ready to jump out the window.” Wow—to LITERALLY be about to jump out of a moving car! Serious stuff, indeed.
Maybe the Mom will read this and take our emotionally disturbed (and, sadly, by her won claim, physically disabled) OP for the medical help she so obviously needs.
get some help you spoiled lil brat. God I can only imagin what it is like to live with someone like you. No wonder she has problems she has YOU for a child. Get a grip excuse her for maybe wanting to know her child. God I hate kids like you. FFFAAAACCK
