Miscellaneous: Today, my mother screamed at my brother for ages for playing...

Today, my mother screamed at my brother for ages for playing a Nicki Minaj music video. She said it's "terrible, demonic garbage" that'll get us "spitroasted in Hell". I don't even disagree with the first part, but she does this kind of thing every single day when I get home from my night job. FML

Today, my mother kept nagging at me because my 9-month-old daughter only calms down when I play her metal. She demands I use gospel, otherwise she will turn into a "devil-worshipping lunatic like her mother". FML

The YouTube police

Today, just like almost every other day, my mom goes onto the computer and scolds me for what I watch on YouTube, even when the videos aren't that graphic. Today she scolded me because she found out that I'd watched videos related to the Max Headroom signal intrusion back in '87. Why can't I just watch what I want? FML

Today, my mother thought it would be funny to sneak into my room at night and scream like a demon, after I'd explained to her how scared I was of The Exorcist movie I had just seen. She claims it wasn't her. FML

Today, my neighbours came to yell at me as they could hear my "shit music" through my window during the afternoon, so I turned it off. They then began to play their definition of "quality music" into the late hours of the night. I was listening to the Beatles. They blasted Nicki Minaj. FML

That stupid saying should die

Today, I was doing homework in the living room when my mom came in and started blasting music and cleaning. When I asked if she could turn it off so I could study, she bitched at me about "My house, my rules." She also has a rule that we can’t do homework in our rooms because of too many distractions. FML

Today, my mom bitched me out and threatened to send me to a Bible camp, after catching me admiring a photo of a bikini model, which is apparently "immoral behavior." This is the same woman who cheated on my dad twice, justifying it by claiming the Devil tempted her. FML

Today, my normally very modest and prissy mom came home, pissed off about something. I asked her what was wrong, but she wouldn't say, and snapped at me to "fuck off". She then grounded me for "making" her use that kind of "vile language". FML

Today, my mom caught me playing Mortal Kombat and had a fit about the violence, saying she read violent video games turn young people like me into mass murderers. I’m 29 years-old with my own flat and she still tries to treat me like a dumb impressionable teenager. FML

Today, my mother screamed at my boyfriend, calling him an "evil piece of self-centred trash". He's a sweet guy who does volunteer work for kids with learning difficulties. She's a bitter, passive-aggressive telemarketer who constantly harasses her own family with sales calls. FML

Today, my mom was in a really bad mood, so I stayed in my room to avoid her. It didn't take long before she barged in and started bitching about my dog, who'd pissed her off by acting too happy. Yes, she's actually that insane, and I have to deal with it on a daily basis. FML

No one likes Nicki Minaj and her Super Bass though.

Stupid thing cut me off. Like I was saying, I wish her mom was at my job last night to yell at the parents that were allowing their toddler girls to sing Beez in the Trap while shaking their bottoms.

Close minded people make me sick. & its cause shes hip hop? Rock music & alternative and metal isnt angels music either & i like all types. The world would get along better without such close minds

Who says she's being THAT closed minded? Who says she's saying that because it's hip hop and therefore it sucks? Maybe it's what Nicki actually sings/raps about. You can make good music without calling someone a Stupid Hoe.

A male playing Nicki Minaj? He's deaf and gay.

So, what you're saying is, if a boy listens to music made by a woman he is automatically gay? That is absurd. (Don't get me wrong, Nicki Minaj is shit.) I listen to music made by a band of men. Does that make me a lesbian? -_-

I realize you were going off what the OP said. And I calmly explained a possible reason, so there's no reason for me to "chill out." I actually do have a pretty good sense of humor. But that wasn't a joke you made. You made an assumption and are now trying to cover it up by claiming that it was a joke. It clearly wasn't.

I've heard idiots say that a metal genre of music is satanic, no matter what kind of metal. But this is the first time I've ever heard someone say that about a rapper. I'm guessing your mother is a super-christian, right? I'm not a fan of rap or hip hop at all, and I am a fan of metal. FYL for having a mother like that

Sorry, OP, x2. Brother could use ear buds, but I don't know what would help hyper-religious mom. Maybe brother is trying to drown out mom's screaming?
