Nice to know

Today, I tried having some girl time with my mom so I could sneakily figure out what to get her for her birthday. All I could think of in the end was a time machine, after her rant about wishing she'd gotten her tubes tied rather than going through the stress of raising me and my sister. FML

It seems like she's not worthy of getting a birthday present from you or your sister.

If you get her a time machine and she goes back to prevent your birth, who will get her the time machine?! Tie your temporal loops before worrying about getting to her tubes! Your homework tonight is to watch the original Terminator.

Ouch. You cannot put a band-aid on that deep wound.

How about getting her some tied up tubes , like inner tubes or medical tubes, as a gag gift? And another time you might want to show her how much the average family pays to get proper treatment in a nursing home for an elderly family member.

Ahh, I'm very sorry to hear that, I feel you. Sounds like a session with my mother. Don't take it to heart, OP. Some ppl are just assholes, even if they're suppose to be your parents.

"Minute physics" has a great explanation about how going back in time to prevent your birth doesn't form a paradox. But either way, your mother seems pretty ungrateful for her kids. FYL

How is that so? if she went back and made it so the person who changed things was never born? how will their actions still exist? everything will undo and some lives will change

That sucks time machines are expansive now a days

I mean if they're expansive why not buy one? More room for expansion!

Get her an empty box and say "we got you favorite present disappointment"
