i am going to destroy all the cups

February 23, 2013

in Mummyhood

If I drank, I would be drinking right now.

Southern Comfort to be specific. Lots of Southern Comfort.

Neat.

Straight from the bottle, not a cup.

Because I am going to destroy all the cups.

Every. last. one. of. them.

My brain is injured. My ears are being tortured continually.

By the cups.

And the children.

The children are torturing the cups, and the cups in turn are torturing me.

It’s raining, I can’t escape to anywhere.

They follow me yelling “Muuuuuum! I learnt it! Look! Mum LOOOOOK!

I feel like running as fast as I can, yelling “I’M NOT YOUR MUUUUUUM!”

Away from the insaneness of the freakin cups and the obsessed creatures that are my children!

Who the bloody hell in their right mind allows their teenage children to join Facebook?!

*hangs head in shame* Ones like me.

WHAT THE FLIPPIN HECK WAS I THINKING???!!!

I should have realised he would see things on there he would want to try!

And then he would pass on his new gained knowledge obsession annoying un-talent onto the younger kids!

I’m all for them learning new things. But one has to question whether to tell the kids “That’s awesome”, or to tell them, “That’s freakin annoying, stop it or I will have to adopt you out”.

I listen to them sing. I watch them dance. I tell them the new hairstyle that I am holding myself back from fixing looks fabulous.

But the cups. The cups are my limit.

The line has been crossed.

Imagine this being done over and over again by the un-talented…

You get it now don’t you.

I dare you to show your kids.

I bet you’ll want to destroy all the cups too.

Bah ha ha ha…. Admittedly anything relating to pitch perfect makes me giggle like a maniac right now, but I have mad visions of you being surrounded by kids with cups doing this lmao

that was awesome.

And I listened to it real quiet like and while Boo was holding a dance rave party in his room. No way in hell I am showing him that.

Awesome, yes. But not when done by ones own children x lots.

Yeah, don’t let Boo see it. It would be the end of any sanity that even an alcoholic beverage or never ending packet of TimTams could not return.

TEM10 – who hasn’t been diagnosed but is dancing on the spectrum somewhere – has taken to it the most. Scooby Doo and Winx have even taken a back seat. This is unheard of!

Hahahaha! My kids are never going to be allowed on Facebook, if I can help it. I feel for you in the rain with the kids running after you, with the cups – happy to see the rain has eased now, hoping they can all be turned outside today to give you a break!

Today was amaaaazing! No rain until late this arvo. The kids ended up going out to play in it :)

I haven’t heard any cups today… but I did sleep in, and found a couple on the loungeroom floor when I got up lol

Facebook is evil for teenagers to use. Pure and simple. If my router would work properly and allow me to block it I would. It’s one of the lead by example things though. If they see you on it, they want it even more.
