Today, I came home to find that my mother had cleaned my room, and she'd done a very good job, too. So good in fact, that she even managed to remove all of the furniture, replacing it with a note that said, "It's time to go, sweetie XO". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom told me to clean the house up because she wants to make good impression on the cleaning lady. FML
Today, my parents dropped by my new house, and my mother offered to tidy up for me while I was out. After they left, I noticed that her "tidying up" included throwing out all the pictures of my girlfriend and replacing them with pictures of herself. FML
Today, I decided to clean the whole house as a surprise for my mother. When she came home, she screamed at me and called me a bitch because she had wanted to clean it herself. FML
Today, I thought my mother was coming into my room to give me lunch. She gave me cleaning supplies instead. FML
Today, I wanted to do something nice for my mom. So, while she was sleeping, I cleaned the whole house for her and even made her breakfast. A few minutes later, she came downstairs and yelled at me to keep it down because she was trying to sleep. FML
Today, the cleaning lady left a note that said my room was too dirty to clean. FML
Today, my mother called me, telling me how disappointed she was at how I let my room "become such a pigsty." I haven't lived there in three years. FML
Today, my mom and I were talking about a wedding decoration that we are going to use at my wedding. I insisted that I gave the decorations to her and I didn’t bother looking in my house. She came over for the night and cleaned while I was at work. She found the decorations that I'd insisted that I'd given to her. FML
Today, I discovered that the reason my mom hasn't been noticing the extra cleaning I've done lately is because her boyfriend took credit when she asked about it; and was rewarded for it in bed. I helped him get with my mom. FML
Today, I brought a girl back to my place. She commented on how neat and clean everything was for a bachelor. I absentmindedly said, “Yeah, my mom comes over and cleans three times a week.” She made a face like I'd just told her I eat puppies or something, then made an excuse to leave. FML

I know there's a law in Norway, that protects just-18-year olds against that. If they're still in highschool and jobless, the parents can't throw them out yet, even if they're over 18. I haven't had to use this, I think I'm safe to go until I'm 20, but I'll be out of the house before or around that age I believe. I have a friend that turned 18, and the mom started to take rent immediately. Sucks.

I can see if you're still in school, but milking it for a couple more years? Those super crummy apartments with a couple flat mates are (or were) a vital part of character building and adapting to adulthood, what good can come from stunting social and economic development by coddling kids for longer?

Well, I spent a year abroad and learned a language I had absolutely no connection to. I'm really not the type of person to like change, at all. Heck, I've used the same deodorant for almost a decade because I don't even like those minor changes. Some people thrive on changes. Some don't. Going abroad a year changed my life. I grew alot that year. No friends, no family for a year. A new set of family and friends. And I believe that's enough adventure for atleast another decade.

This could be like the start of one of those inspirational movies where you become successful and they act like they never did anything. Go out and do something awesome OP
