  • M

    HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAH this is exactly like my mom

  • kio

    ohgosh I hear my mom screaming those into the phone all the time.
    “A like-a APPLE??? P like PETER.”

  • kevin (not the one above)

    well i think the whole A-like-Apple thing is reasonable, especially if you can't hear well or whatever. i think it's more funny that the mom doesn't know how to spell the first half of her son's name!

    The abdominoplastia is the surgical intervention directed on elimination tummy tuck. Simultaneously at this operation can be eliminated and other accompanying problems.

    I think what's funny is the finals somehow overshadow any discussion of the broken finger.

    wow is it just me or do all asian parents choose the same names for each letter….?

    Oh my. I would drive myself crazy if I continually do this with every letter in my name. Just get your mom some hearing aid… or teach her how to differentiate letters. :D

    This is the worst part about living in China! I speak Chinese fine, and I have 0 problems communicating until it comes to letters. One time I was booking plane tickets over the phone and it took 5 minutes to say the 8 letter booking code because I absolutely could not understand what letters she was saying. Spelling my name for them also took a really long time. ugghhh

  • Randy

    Uh no it's more like you're just stupid… E's and V's sound the same on the phone like Ms and Ns because of what the phone is capable of.

  • TheBladeRoden

    Yes, her son's name could be Kaev for all she knows

  • Joyce
