My mom always asks me to help her with her English, especially when it comes to her grammar and vocabulary. One evening while I am still at work, I see my mom on Yahoo chat and decided to say hi. With no immediate reply, I left my desk to attend to something else. This is what I see when I return 15 minutes later:

me: hi mom
me: are you there?
mom: mei
*** Auto-response sent to mom: I am currently idle.
mom: you
mom: you just testing my english, when i look the word “idel” i don’t understand what that mean. i have to check dictionary right away, now i know waht meaning
mom: that mean “nothing to do?” you have time?
mom: no answer?! okay byebye!
