I've started mouthing off at my MIL the same way she does at me and I feel so a l i v e

[jwilliams35]

"this kitchen is a mess, it's pathetic"
"Well, I mean, I can't do everything Karen"

"I hate the shows y'all watch, they're so stupid"
"Yeah your shows are pretty stupid too, I won't watch them"

"You need to stop being so hard on C (her grandson)"
"Well I have to be, his Nana lets him get away with murder"

Guys I know it's not gonna fix anything, but as an ex doormat of 20+ years, it feels so good

ETA that none of her comments have any basis in reality. She's incredibly deluded and has a really fucked up semblance of how things really are.

@jwilliams35 MIL sounds like a ray of sunshine /s

 

[jwilliams35]

@desringgod7 She makes cookies constantly and buys people's affection so she's obviously the benevolent goddess we all DEFINITELY asked for

@jwilliams35 My ex mil: "I have to pay people to spend time with me!"

Also ex mil: throws tantrums, screams at anyone even grand children.

Gosh, I mean. You're not wrong, Donna.

 

[katrina2017]

@jwilliams35 Hahaha my mom is this way! Must be nice to walk on water!

 

[jwilliams35]

@katrina2017 I'm so so lucky in the way that my mom is not a fucking anal fissure of a person

 

[bobcubb]

@jwilliams35 Ahahahah! I love this. Whole new way to call someone a pain in the ass.

 

[katrina2017]

Mine tooooooo and that’s how no one in high school picked up on the fact that she drank too much and was emotionally abusive - she was my teachers’ BFF and if I got close to one suddenly they were coming over for dinner and getting gifts and food...

 

[iqreader]

@jwilliams35 Hey! She's my mom!! :-D D-:

 

[katrina2017]

@jwilliams35 (It’s “deluded”. Though “diluted” adds some funny mental images to her craziness.)

@katrina2017 After my baby was born, the pediatrician asked some questions about the pregnancy and birth. I said I had been taking Iron supplements for borderline anemia, and he said it was unlikely to be a problem after the birth because it was just "delusional anemia". I was pretty confused, but didn't want to argue. At my postpartum ob appointment, I realized that the pediatrician had actually said "dilutional", and hadn't been calling me crazy.

 

[jwilliams35]

@trinichristiannudist This definitely sounds like something that would happen to me, hahaha

 

[rphgirl]

@trinichristiannudist Hahahahaha. I can't stop laughing. I'm gonna think of this for a few weeks at random times and lol

 

[nrnowlinma]
