Today, I introduced my mother to my new girlfriend. My mom made a very nasty comment about her in Spanish, not realizing that my girlfriend teaches Spanish at the local school. FML

Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my family for the first time. My mother's immediate reaction was, "We didn't know you were gay!" No mom, she really is a girl. FML
Today, I nervously introduced my mother to my new boyfriend. I had to sit and watch her flirt with him for an hour. When I took her in the other room and confronted her about it, she said, "Don't you dare ruin this for me!" FML
Today, my mom started her new job; she's now my new coworker. She's already told the other girl I'd said she talks too much, and has berated me for not calling her "Mom" while at work. FML
Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my mom. The first thing my mom did was look at her breasts and mention that no matter what happens, hers were the first that I suckled on. FML
Today, I brought my new girlfriend home for dinner. My mom was being unusually quiet, so I thought she was trying to be polite. After dinner, she pulled me aside and asked why I'd never mentioned that my girlfriend had dated my brother. Apparently everyone knew except me. FML
Today, I was hanging with my boyfriend. When his mom came to pick him up, he introduced me. She talked to me politely and I thought we hit it off very well. As I was walking away, I heard her say, "That's your new girlfriend? Honey, you could do so much better." FML
Today, I met my girlfriend's mom. She went on about how my girlfriend's dad is a no good drunk, following this statement with spilling her fifth glass of wine. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me she wanted get to know my mom, so they went off and had a chat. After an hour, I noticed my girlfriend was gone and my mom was waiting for me. Apparently I've been dumped through my mother. FML
Today, I met my girlfriend’s parents for the first time. I wanted to break the ice, so I brought up a funny story… about my ex-girlfriend, without thinking. The room fell silent, and my girlfriend’s mom just stared at me. My girlfriend left the room in tears. FML
Today, my girlfriend's mother is more into me than she is. FML

I totally agree with you....

Given how rude she is to not be able to keep her mouth shut, it's not surprising how rude she is to speak a language in front of people she thinks they can't understand.

Sorry your mother seems to be lacking in class, OP. Having an opinion about someone is one thing, being rude and ignorant about it is another, and acting like that, she deserves to have it backfire. I hope your mother had the good sense to be ashamed for how she embarrassed both you and herself, but at least your girlfriend got to see her true colours early on. Fyl, OP. :(

at least the mom had the decency to speak in another language. Too bad the girlfriend knew the language.

How is that decent? It's even worse than insulting someone behind their back because you're saying it right to their face, but still being too cowardly to let them know what you really think. And not only are you insulting them, you're probably lying to them, too, because when they ask what you said, you're gonna have to make up something innocent. I think speaking in another language in front of someone who (you assume) can't understand it, especially to insult them, is the absolute rudest thing ever.

That's not nice! Didn't your mother ever get taught that if she has nothing nice to say don't say anything at all! -.- no matter what language it is in!

Your mother seriously deserved that one. Isn't' it satisfying when people who assume one can't speak another language land in the situation of Op's mother. But yes, OP, hopefully your mother apologized and your girlfriend isn't too offended because after all, although, what did your mom say (agrees with 38 on this point).

If we all learned to keep our comments to ourselves, FML would be a lot less fun. Be careful what you wish for ;)

So, your mom called her a "****-sucking *****" and you sheepishly agreed, winked and replied,"Well, I'm not paying in cash, heh-heh-heh."

You REALLY want to mess with them? Insult them in Klingon or Hobbit or French or some other make-believe language. Nobody will know (or care) what you said.
