No more Texas governors for president

“Next time I tell you someone from Texas should not be president of the United States, please pay attention.” - Molly Ivins
Overheard at family weekend between mom and freshman
  • Mom: So... how ARE your classes? Doing well, I assume.
  • Frosh: I'm gonna, like, fail everything.
  • Mom: What do you mean? Do you need a tutor? Honey, just let us know.
  • Frosh: No, I need my books.
  • Mom: But you got all that loan money. And your dad and I have given you over $4,000. What did you do with it?!
  • Frosh: No, I still have it. The teacher must have passed them out on the first day. I wasn't here, remember? You had to take me on your stupid cruise and now I don't have my stupid books because I wasn't here on the first day.
  • Mom: Uh, Connor? You have to buy them.
  • Frosh: Yeah, now that I missed the teacher passing them out. There must not be enough to go around. I'm not spending all my money on stupid books.
  • Mom: Did you ask the others where they got their book?
  • Frosh: No, they'll know I was dumb and missed the first day and so now I have to buy my books like a lame asshole.
  • Mom: Don't swear. Didn't you know in college, you BUY your books? All of them. You have to buy them. They don't give them out like in high school.
  • Frosh: No, I didn't KNOW that because you and dad never TOLD me. That's dumb. Why should I buy books? I hate books. It's the teacher's job to teach me stuff. If they want me to learn stuff from books, they should buy them.
  • Mom: *looks around* Look, honey, the bookstore is still open! Let's go get you your books!
  • Frosh: Whatever. Only if you get me an iPad to like, read them on.
  • They leave.
  • Me: *looks up from typing this, facepalms* Did that just fucking happen?
