Paying for Prostitution

Posted on March 3, 2010 at 07:14pm

I was at a college career fair and was in the midst of an engaging conversation with the admissions officer of the school I was MOST interested in.

Mom: Oh…I see…Well, will my daughter be about to afford this prostitution?
About a second later:
Me: INSTITUTION?!?!
Admissions officer: Well, yes, we have a lot of … scholarships … though there ARE nice jobs on campus you can take to support yourself.

Big Breasted Snowman

It snowed a ton in New York not too long ago, and my mom, who is from California had this to say on me making a snowman, via her new favorite form of communication, text message:

Mom: Exciting! Try to make a female snowman!
Me: Will do mom
Mom: Take a picture of it! Make sure the cup size is 40 DDD!

Lesbians of the Middle East

Posted on March 1, 2010 at 03:25pm

So I went with my family to a buffet where I had a dodgy oyster and ended up hurling in the bathroom. The restaurant’s manager came out to talk to apologize to my parents while I had gone to the bathroom and when I came out, the most epic conversation with my mom ensued:

Mom: Ohh the manager came to talk to us. He said he was lesbian.
Me: Huh? You mean gay, right? He’s male…
Mom: No no, lesbian. He said he was from the Middle East.
Me: OHHHH!! You mean hes LEBANESE.
Mom: Yeah! Lesbian!

Festive Snowman

My boyfriend and I came home from college for Chinese New Year to see this waiting for us in the driveway.  My mom says she made it, which most likely means she made my dad build it for her while she stood watching from the window.

Prolly’s Large Head

Posted on February 12, 2010 at 10:07pm

I live in a different state from my family so when my sister was in labor, my mom was texting me from the hospital after my nephew was born and after exclaiming how big/heavy a baby he was, I jokingly typed to my mom:

“Prolly has a big head, that’s why!”

My mom texts me back soon after:

“Who’s ‘Prolly’ ?”
