Today, my mom learned how to use the text messaging on her smartphone. I've received 37 already, and she calls after every single one to make sure I understood her. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I finally taught my mom how to text message people. Now I get a message from her every 30 seconds saying "Hi". FML
Today, my mom finally learned how to text. Now it's her way of communicating, even when we're in the same room. FML
Today, I finally convinced my grandpa to try a smartphone. After an hour of teaching him how to text, he announced he'd figured it out on his own. The first message he ever sent was meant for me. It went to his pharmacist instead and simply read, "Love you. Thanks for everything." FML
Today, I got a text from my mom that said, “I’m so proud of you!” I immediately replied, “Thanks, Mom!” Then I realized it was meant for my sister, and my mom had accidentally texted me instead of her. FML
Today, I found out my best friend made a program to reply to my text messages with random sentences from a list. It took 15 minutes of texting before I finally noticed. FML
Today, I sent my mom a text to tell her about my promotion at work. She responded with, "Who is this?" It turns out that she deleted my number, because I "never call." FML
Today, I text messaged my mom from Afghanistan to let her know everything was okay. She responded, telling me not to message her so much because "the price of text messages really adds up." FML
Today, my phone rang for the first time in four days. It was my mom. She dialed the wrong number. FML
Today, I found out my dad bought an iPhone. I've spent the better part of the last six months teaching him how to check his email and online newspapers. FML
Today, I found out that my mom has linked my iPhone with her iPad and has been secretly reading my texts. FML

Considering the fact that she made you for 9 months and then popped you out in painful labor after spending several months vomiting from morning sickness, that allows her to do anything without a snappy attitude from you.

Silly question, but have you ever thought to use the "ignore" button that modern mobiles have? She may be your mother but dang, sometimes you just gotta be an ass to get your point across.

Block her! And only unblock her when she learns to control herself. If necessary repeat till she gets the message.
