Alright, we all know the hell everyone goes through when going home for the holidays. Some of us ache with the idea of leaving our friends to go hang out with a bunch of people who no longer understand us or judge us for the smallest things. Here are a couple conversations no one wants to go through when spending family time during fall break.
1. When your parents ask you about your grades and you know full well D’s get degrees.
I'm just glad my professors never give us our grades, so I'm just as out of the loop as my parents. Am I passing, am I failing? Who knows man.
2. When your mom sees some guy named Greg snapped you and asks if he's your boyfriend.
Now you have to come up with an excuse for your booty call.
3. When your grandma mentions that you gained some weight and you realize the freshman 15 is real.
Alright, grandma, well at least I'll have gains when I start working out again.
4. When your parents ask you to fix the house that you haven’t lived in for the last four months
Do I have to fix something I didn't break? I don't really live here anymore, or do I? The confusion continues.
5. Wanting to go out and realizing you have a curfew still and have to argue for your freedom you’ve come accustomed to.
Mom, I've stayed up until 5 a.m. taking selfies with strangers every other weekend. I think I'll be fine staying out past midnight with my high school friends.
6. When your mother awkwardly asks you if you’ve been pressured to drink or smoke by your peers
Yes, and it was indeed a glorious night I shan't remember.
7. When your dog dies while your away and your parents decide to tell you when you get home.
How dare you, my poor fluffy all dead no longer able to greet me with dog kisses.
8. When your siblings claimed your room while you were away, so you have a wrestling match until there is only one winner.
I am the dominant sibling, all others must obey my authority, filthy peasants.
9. When your parents are religious and ask if you’re going to church on the regular.
Well if you count me saying "thank god" for turning in my assignments right before deadline then yes I at least pray.
10. When your mom thinks your "adult" enough to hear her dirty college stories and tries to bond with you.
Ummm, mom just no...
