Finishing School

For some rea­son, my mom was really rid­ing my sis­ters and me about call­ing up rel­a­tives to thank them for gifts this year. This led to an inter­est­ing con­ver­sa­tion we had as din­ner was wind­ing down.

Di Nga is still up, go call her and thank her for her gifts!”

- Mommy.

But we haven’t even opened it yet; how can we thank her when we don’t know what she got us?”

- Gio Linh.

I know what she got you. Isn’t that good enough?”

- Mommy.

Yeah… I dunno what that was all about. My sis­ters and I have a the­ory that it’s because we recently scaled back our fam­ily plan from 2,000 min­utes to 1,000, so she’s being stingy with calls, which is why she wanted us to call over the week­end instead. But is T-Mobile so stingy they don’t give free min­utes on Christmas?

EDIT: Yes, T-Mobile IS that stingy. Damn Scroogey bastards.

  2. I don’t see how this has any­thing to do with fin­ish­ing school. You have miss lead­ing tit­ties. :em17:

  3. Fin­ish­ing school teaches you man­ners, just as my mom was try­ing to enforce in my sis­ters and me.
