Mother Knows Best

Here is something that my mother used to say to me when I did something stupid, "Why don't you use your head for something other than growing hair out of?" Simple right? Makes you think about what you did wrong. I can not tell you how enraged that would make me feel. It's not like it was meant as a mean insult. But that made me want to choke people. Not only did I just do something dumb, but I was getting shit for it too. For some reason, of all the things my mom said to me, that would really piss me off. I wanted to say to her, " Here, hoe about I headbutt you in your goddamn nose!" That would be a good use of my head. I could never do or say that to my mom though. That always pissed me off. I would rank that up there with the time she threw my VanHalen 1984 cassette at me, and when I ducked it, it hit the wall and fucked the tape up. That really sucked. And my feelings are still hurt by that.
