mom 4 hours ago: we’re only staying for 30 minutes
Mom: *calls my name*
Me: *closes computer, gets up, opens door, walks downstairs, jumps through hoop of fire, fights muhammad ali in his prime, wrestles a bear, out runs usain bolt, climbs mount everest*
Mom: Hand me that thing literally 5 feet from where I’m sitting.
Me:
Me in class.
Me: okay, gotta focus. Big test coming up.
Me: ooooh, when did that poster get there?
Me: ugh, split ends.
Me: why is the back of your head so attractive?!
Me: HOW DID YOU GET THAT ANSWER?
Me: just act like you understand.
Me: don't pick me, don't pick me...
Me: so here's my number, so call me maybe.
Me: DAMN THAT SONG IT'S SO FUCKING CATCHY.
Me: it's only been fifteen minutes?
Me: I hate you all.
Me: someone shoot me.
