The Last Poster Wins! [v23]

Yeah just more homework today

[Neo Emolga]

I uh... yeah, I did a little shopping because... eh heh, I found some really good deals. *shot*

55" flat screen TV for about $180, as well as the John Wick 3, Detective Pikachu, and How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World Blu Rays for only $9 each.

Surprisingly, my local Target wasn't NEARLY as frantic as I thought it would be. I mean sure, there were some more shoppers than usual, but in general, everything was handled well, peacefully, and my dad and I were in and out quickly and easily without any problems. I'd have to say it turned out pretty well.

[Noblejanobii]

Oh that's good. I uh finished my essay. Took a nap and then mom said because I took a nap that now I have to work on homework more. Yay..

Yeah, where's the logic in that?

Does some kind of final boss theme play whenever you're around her?

[Chakramaster]

I mean I can understand that point in thought in a sense..."okay you rested, now work more." But that's not how it always works. Also work doesn't just magically appear if you already finish it. Not unless she creates more work forvyou personally.

[Noblejanobii]

Ye and like I have more homework to do, yes. BUT that doesn't mean I need to be constantly working.

[Chakramaster]

Yeah everyone deserves rest. We don't need to ALWAYS be working.

[Lychee]

It sounds very hard to have a parent like that!
My unsolicited advice is move to the other side of the country or to a city you've been dreaming of that's more than 3 hours away, and then dont answer your phone for a few years :p

Or, yanno, possibly moving out will make the relationship improve since she wont be present to give you instructions on what to do on every free hour!

My family is scattered to every edge of Australia by our own design. 16+ years of living with someone is usually enough! We all get along well when we get together, but living together causes various problems. I think it's a pretty ok way to be.

[Noblejanobii]

Yeah I plan to move to DC after I finish my degrees which should be far enough away that it won't be a problem but she also hounded me when I was living in Spain for four months so who knows.

[Chakramaster]

What'll happen if when you move out and just stop answering so often? Not like she can do anything about it if once you're out and paying for everything yourself. You won't always have time to do what she wants or answer her.
