I was just about to hang up with my mom the other night, then she proceeds to ask me how our cat is doing. +4 minutes.

[–]am1e 41 points42 points ago

I hold my cats up during Skype calls and make them wave. I could be BFFs with your mom.

[–]davedawg2000 3 points4 points ago

They routinely did that with their dog when I used to Skype with them during college. Must be a parent thing :P

[–]azaoua2 1 point2 points ago

Uh, the only reason I'd Skype with my parents when I went away was so that they'd hold up my dog

[–]1_point_21_gigawatts 5 points6 points ago

Mine's the exact same way. My word to her word ratio is like 1/100. Most of the time when I'm using public transportation I refuse to talk on my phone because I hate creating a disturbance, but I'll take an exception if my mom calls because I never actually end up talking.

[–]jbtk 35 points36 points ago

Don't forget to feed yourself, wear your seatbelt, put gas in your car, take a shower, drive safely, etc.

Thank God for my Mom.

[–]tehmikey 8 points9 points ago

I wish my mother gave practical advice like your mom.

Mine just gives me bad advice to tell my fiance about getting a job. Apparently, if you have a physics degree and want a technical job, you should apply to be a secretary at a company that does not hire physic majors. Because you could get moved up to management and use that experience in an unrelated field to get a physics job elsewhere.

I am still winding down from having that conversation last night (4th time we had the same conversation).

[–]Tenshik 1 point2 points ago

Your fiance should probably get a job first and then worry about getting the job they want. It's less a related field and more a she doesn't want you to be in poverty cause they aren't hiring physics majors.

[–]tehmikey 0 points1 point ago

I make enough to provide for the both of us while still funding my retirement accounts, so money is not an issue.

However, my mother is of the opinion that getting a secretary job, working long enough to become an entry manager, and then applying to a technical job will actually yield results. Skills degrade with time, so any technical person out of work (or in the wrong field) is a technical ticking time bomb.

The truth is that finding anything technical to do, even if it is for no pay, is more beneficial to getting a technical job because you are staying active with math and science.

It is not about getting the job that my fiance wants. It is about finding ANY job that can actually help her develop in the field she desires.

The frustration is that my mother only uses non-technical people as examples. Relating a friends daughter's experience of going from a degree in poultry science, to a secretary, to an HR hiring manager position is not the same story as a person with a technical degree who has no interest in getting a business/people management job.

/edit: For more background. I have seen numerous people do jobs that they hate for mediocre pay. These jobs do not help them develop the skills they need for the job they want, and the job requirements are too high to allow time to develop the skills on their own. It leads to these people dreading every day.

[–]Tenshik 0 points1 point ago

Oh that's dumb then. I just kind of hoped she was worried for your finances. She sounds kind of sexist thinking a woman should just be a secretary.

[–]Goodwell -1 points0 points ago

[–]haiku1991 70 points71 points ago

I like to mix it up, I'll throw in a "sure" or a "ya." makes her think I'm actually listening

[–]clubdepizza 44 points45 points ago

Uh-uh, of course, why not.

If you're feeling saucy - "indeed"

[–]xNateDawg 25 points26 points ago

Saucy is a very odd word to describe conversations with your mother.

[–]nehpets96 16 points17 points ago

Or you could just actually listen. After all, she raised you, and you will wonder why you couldn't take 15 minutes to talk to her when she stops breathing.

[–]irish711 2 points3 points ago

Dang it, I can't think of which Arnold Schwarzenegger movie it was, but this just reminded me of the scene in which he answers his wife's phone call, hits the play button on a prerecorded "conversation", and sets the receiver next to it. The entire time the wife is talking, the only thing he's saying is, "uh huh, yeah, ya don't say, wow"(repeat).

[–]CricketPinata 1 point2 points ago

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwDwkoK0qcU

Last Action Hero.

Oncoming darkness, you later find out that his ex-wife hasn't talk to him in years, and he gets someone to call pretending to be his wife so the other cops in the station to think he has people that care about him.

[–]irish711 1 point2 points ago

Thank you. I thought that was the movie but wasn't 100% sure.

[–]MutantNinjaSquirtle 0 points1 point ago

Reminds me of that Family Guy scene where Peter sneaks out and records himself so when Lois pokes her head into the room it says he's sleeping go away...then it backfires horribly. someone link it?

If my memory serves me correctly, that was from a Sonic the Hedgehog book.

[–]Rawmin 3 points4 points ago

You're darn right. Wow, blast from the past right there.

[–]Sea-Salt -1 points0 points ago

Either that or the early issues of the Archie series. Never thought I'd see one used as a reaction pic, in any case.

[–]TheBlankedFile 1 point2 points ago

I think it's from the Archie Sonic the Hedgehog comic, from one of its first issues.

[–]wasting_internet 2 points3 points ago

She maintains order where there would otherwise be chaos. Yes, she's a party pooper, but, without her, misquoted lyrics would run amok and that simply cannot be permitted. We're writing internet history here, folks, let's be thorough.

Now there's like 3 of these accounts. Just like with everything, redditors are unoriginal in how they're unoriginal.

[–]HigherFive 2 points3 points ago

Well when someone calls out reposts, the argument that "it's new to me, dammit" appears. It applies to this as well, right?

[–]TheBullshitPatrol 0 points1 point ago

I happen to think that's a pretty stupid argument for reposts. I look at pages upon pages of top posts from all time/past year/past month for every new subreddit that I subscribe (and all the defaults when I started using reddit a year and a half ago), or top of the past week/past day whenever I'm on vacation or miss out on some redditing for some reason.

With that logic, you'd put everyone that doesn't have leprosy on quarantine, instead of just those who do have it. If you missed something, that's your issue.
