I called my mother to wish her a Happy's Mother Day - the only thing that was going to make me happy, especially since I miss my family and all my friends/family are out of town or unavailable. My mother answered crying in tears and told me she'd call me back. My brother had been on thin ice in her house, after not getting a full-time job or going to school, but then he decided to smoke cigarettes in the house (literally, in the bathroom). Smoking is a huge no-no with my mother - she lost her father primarily to his smoking (watching him die before our eyes), my grandma has serious medical problems from his second-hand smoke, we've lost a cousin to her sister smoking, etc. But to do it especially inside her house was outrageous. My mother and I both have asthma. After we carefully got over that, it was decided that my brother would pay rent and not smoke cigarettes while living under her roof.
So last night she found drug paraphernalia under her backyard deck. So on Mother's Day, she kicked her "baby" out of the house. He's packing up and heading to his father's house in the meanwhile. She'll barely talk to me because she's crying and my brother is texting the hell out of me, asking me what he should do. I think he's going to try and come out here.
This is pretty depressing. :-\
-
let him work at gamestop with you
free womb service then
-
I told him that he can't simply come out here.
-
do you feel he would take you down with him on the sinking ship that is his life?
-
Call up some GameStops around there and get him a job
-
I already offered. My brother, seriously, enjoyed working a hot dog stand for under-the-table wages on weekends and living rent free in one of the nicest houses you'll ever see (my mother and her husband make a lot of money - there's a HDTV to like, every room and a theatre-type area in the basement). He basically would use his tax free income and spend it on World of WarCraft and Xbox 360 games and hang out all day eating food and drinking soda.
-
WoW is a gateway drug to marijuana :(
-
I plan on suing Blizzard for damages.
I think he was doing more than just marijuana and I haven't reviewed all the evidence, but they found more than rolling papers and a pipe. Not that he was a coke fiend or anything.
-
He's a few weeks from turning 20-years-old.

Does your mom need a new son now? Because I could take the job; fill her womb-void if you will.
-
She wants me to move back home. Last time, she offered me a free car, TV, etc.
-
Tell her I'd come for just the car and TV, no need for the ect. Tell her I'd make a great son, as I got my mom mom ruby earrings and supper for mothers day.

Well, slap my ass and call me Will Federman.

I'll live with your mom. I'm young and have a fresh mind. SHE CAN MOLD ME INTO THE CHILD SHE NEVER HAD!
There is a line. Get to the back of it.
-
Sorry to hear that Willco. I can understand why you're hesitant to just let him crash with you. Do you plan on keeping in contact with him, perhaps trying to mentor him from afar? I hope it works out before this gets worse
-
Fuck you pretty boy, I'm poor and have pretty mediocre parents. I NEED A WAY OUT THAT ISN'T CRIME OR THE WAR!
Your parents are pretty awful. You'd be a way better son than Arby, too. You're not mentally distinguished mentally-challenged, for starters.
-

Same. Though my good looks will totally give me the edge out over you. Wilco's mom, here I cum! :o

Willco's brother sounds like a wiener.
-
Well sounds like your mother has a womb for rent now.

Arby's so conceited. This is what TVC lusting after him has done to his ego. :(
Your looks will go eventually, dude, and then all you'll be left is is (lol) your intellect.
-
Your right. When my looks go I'll be laughed off this board and there will be nothing left for me to do but go teach in English in Japan. :(
Hope Himu pays you back soon.
-
Ichi is just jealous because he is an ugly Rican. Arby, your looks will be with you for a long while, don't worry.
-

The sad thing is, your English skills are just good enough to qualify you as a part-time English teacher here.

My brother never called me when he got to his father's house - if he got to his father's house. Haven't heard from mother either. What a crappy day.
-
Maybe he got jacked up on PCP and robbed a drugstore.
-
We can only hope.

My mom once caught my little brother having a pot party at our grandma's house (note that this was after our grandmother began to go senile and needed round-the-clock care). She freaked out initially, but he's her favorite so she ended up forgiving him.
-
She has held my brother's hand forever and a day, but after numerous infractions of basic house rules (no smoking, no drugs, etc.), she had to kick him out. She caught him smoking pot before too and let it slide. But the fact that he's just happy to remain stragnant at home with no job or education prospects show he has no life context.
-
My brother pulled a lot of shit too (pot, ecstasy, crashing the car repeatedly, getting so drunk she had to go to a bar and carry him home since he couldn't walk), but he also worked his ass off in college (though he's dumb as a sack of bricks) so she let it all slide. Meh.
-
Ichi has mother issues :lol
-
It's the story of the prodigal son irl :(
smh mom
-
These sum up my mother's day feelings

Ichi, does your mother hate you or something?
-

Not as far as I know.
-
You seem awfully bitter, so I figured maybe you resented how she treated you or something.
My mother coddled my brother, but I see how he is and how he's made such a rough transition into adulthood - and I view the fact that I'm able to stand on my own two feet as a good thing.
-
My brother was my mom's favorite, I was my dad's favorite. I figure it evens out.

It's exactly the same in my house. :)
Willco, I'm sorry your brother is a douche and ruined your mom's Mothers' Day.
-
I'm upset that this went down on Mother's Day, but I also feel for my brother - he has no idea what to do now.
