Despite the fact that I scored amongst the top few percent in canada on the Descartes mathematics contest, I just got accepted tp computer engineering at waterloo and I have the second highest graduating average at my high school... my mother is still of the opinion that I'm an idiot.

She's leaving for vacation in a while and she left me a note detailing how to take care of things while she's gone.

These particular excerpts from said note are rather amusing:

the mysterious pile of textiles that builds up at the foot of your bed is known as ?dirty laundry.?

food left around in garbage cans will begin to rot and stink

do the dishes using the dishwasher

if your want air conditioning make sure it?s set to cool

Milk cartons won?t magically fill back up.

Mwahahha, your mother sounds hilarious. Just like any other mother on the planet, she's overprotective. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Next time she tells you that you're an idiot, tell her it must be genetic.

She didn't make that stuff up out of the blue, obviously you neglect those chores around the house quite frequently or she wouldn't have said anything about it. And there are plenty of people who are book smart, but are idiots.

Doesn't mean it's not funny. :)

I have to protest though -- I'm not an idiot, just a slacker, sometimes.

If you can't see the implied <sarcasm> ... </sarcasm> tags in her note, she may have a point. ;)

I don't think she thinks you're a moron. If she thought that, she would be saying stuff about your grades/academic performance, etc. She's not. She's more than likely just trying to make sure you're still alive when she gets back. From those few things, it just sounds like you're a tad lazy or forgetful. That's not equal to being a moron.

LOL no pics, I just can't bring myself to post pictures of my mother on the net. There's something fundamentally disturbing about it. :)

She's 49 years old, that should scare off most of you.
