What's Hot

Just wondering..

Did Oedipus send a totally inappropriate, and possibly slightly disturbing, card?
I play guitar because I enjoy it rather than because I’m any good at it

    Nothing says Happy Mothers Day like the gift of anti aging face serum like what I got for mine!

    Whops!

    Having two kids, I have two mothers to worry about, my own, and my kids! I actually really dislike it, as it typically ends up with people disappointed and upset somehow...

    Another Christianity based scam made to make everyone part with loads of money. Valentines, Christmas etc et-fucking-cetera. I have never been involved, in spite of the fact that I love my mother. She hates it too.

    I'm currently visiting my mother, aiming to make a quick get away to avoid my siblings.
    MrsTheWeary is at work so the kids are making her posh breakfast at eight tonight.

    Was it on purpose? Either way, it was in the past. My advice would be to put it behind you and try and enjoy the rest of the day, even if you need to fake it initially! If it doesn't work, you can still be in a mood with her tomorrow ;)

    Is it Christianity based?

    Just reading about it. Created by a Christian but so were (reasonably probably) the theory of evolution, the vacuum cleaner, the internal combustion engine,etc, so it isn't a religious festival as such.

    My wife is upset now. Not quite sure why, but think it might be something to do with doing the food on the BBQ, and she thought it was too cold outside so sat inside while we were cooking in the garden complaining that she we bored. I guess the cards, flowers, and home made presents from the kids were not enough!

    It is actually a church special service called Mothering Sunday
    but like Fathers day and other commercially blood -sucking crap it has been hijacked by the Yanks,promoted by them and turned into another RETAIL FESTIVAL .................this one is particularly good for restauranteurs and gastro-pub landlords together with vile places like Harvester for the sheepflock

    Lady BMcH and I took my dear old mum to meet her dear old mum, and they nattered away for hours. Simples.

    According to Wikipedia it was invented in the USA, assuming that's right I'm not sure how they hijacked it. The UK adopted it later and put it on a different date, so if anything we hijacked it.

    Hmm I'd have thought Mothering Sunday went back further than that but maybe that's just one of those things that you'd assume were older than they actually are. I think in fairness this might be one of the few Christian things where the concept of it works well for noon Christians as well, but it is actually not just about mothers specifically, it's about mothering which of course anybody could do, woman or man, parent or friend, etc etc.

    Unfortunately that does rather lend itself to being buggered up the arse by people that like to get you buying more and more stuff in the name of mothering

    my nephew didn't turn up to todays gathering of the clan, so for a change I am not the worst son in the family. I must tell him good work for that.
