I cannot STAND my boyfriend's mom. I know he loves her and all, but I want to punch her in the face.
I don't know her well, and she doesn't know any of my family. This does not stop her from openly judging me and my family, even if she's wacko herself.
Today, I told her my car was getting fixed. "That sounds expensive. Your parents will just pay for it, though! I'd never do that for my son."
I'm sorry I'm in college full-time and work two jobs, and my parents work their asses off. Yes, my parents support me, but it's because they've worked hard their entire lives to help provide us with a nice life. Sorry you haven't worked in 10 years and decided to apply for food stamps when you live on 60 acres of land (her husband is a contractor).
Everything she does drives me crazy. She believes that you're going to die if you don't eat all-organic cayenne root extract bullshit (which, looking at the ingredients, is about 90% alcohol and 10% artificial crap), and every ailment you have is a result of not eating like she does.
On top of all that, she worships Glenn Beck, has "WHERE'S THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE?" magnets throughout her house and car, and gloats about her awesome GPA when her courses are pottery, photography, and introductory math (and is unemployed).
Another great conversation:
Her: "My GPA was 3.6 last term! What was yours?"
Me: "Oh, a 3.5. (I'm a business major, btw)
Her: "Hahahaa, I beat you!"
My boyfriend gets frustrated, too, because she berates him constantly and lets his bar-hopping, long-unemployed, and not-in-school sister do whatever she wants. I find myself making new excuses to not get anywhere near his house when she's around.
Too bad he's such a nice guy, haha.
