I am a 28 year old single woman.  I walk into the kitchen Christmas morning in sweats but no socks.

Mom: Ai-goo!  Why you not wear socks?
Me: (looks around, as it is 60 degrees out.) It’s not cold.  (points to father’s similarly bare duck feet) And Daddy doesn’t have socks on.
Mom: (indignant) It different with Daddy.  Daddy doesn’t have uterus.

My mom, like all Asian mothers, speaks VERY loud despite the context. Case in point, my 3 yr old and 2 yr old niece were taking a bath.

Mom: (pointing at my youngest niece) DID YOU POO POO IN THE BATHTUB?

3-yr-old niece: A Ne (grandma)….use your inside voice.

I later explained to my niece that A Ne doesn’t have an inside voice, she has one voice only.

I told my mom to stop texting “ok” because it wastes texts. A couple days later…

Me: “hey mom, going to a friend’s house, be back later.”
Mom: “Hai {ok}”

While my family and I were at dinner at a Chinese restaurant, I looked into the kitchen, which had a window for people eating to watch the chefs cooking, and I saw one of the chefs making something I had never seen before. This was the following conversation that ensued:

Me: Mom, what is that lady making?
Mom: Uh, you mean that MAN?
Me: Uh…no, that’s clearly a woman.
Mom: NO! That’s a MAN. Ask your grandma
*turns to grandma*
Mom: Ma, isn’t that a man? Look at his hands. There’s no way that’s a woman.
Grandma: YEAH! That’s a MAN.
Me: You guys are so wrong! That’s a woman. I bet you all $20 each.
Grandma: Fine, I’m going to ask that waitress coming by.
Me: OMG. Grandma, you can’t! That’s so rude!
*flags down waitress and turns on cute grandma charm*
Grandma: Excuse me, miss. Is that chef a man or a woman?
Waitress: Uh….that’s a woman. She’s just tall…but that’s definitely a woman
Grandma: Oh……………thank you!
