My mom is also super annoying on FB. She has friended all my friends and likes and comments on all my posts. She also has my son as her profile pic. Not her with my son - just my son.

However she cannot embarrass me because I am an adult. I am friends with other adults who understand that I am not my mother and I am not responsible for her actions. If they are annoyed, they can unfriend or block her - just like I can.

My MIL was posting pictures of pretty plants....marijuana plants. She thought they were some sort of pineapple flower.

These two stories are hilarious.

My mother wished my DD a happy birthday on facebook and when I told her that she was a day early, she texted me "oops" but on facebook she said "I just wanted to be the first!"

Hi Sarah!

Back in medieval times, when my mother tentatively suggested she get a Facebook account and keep in touch that way, I flat out told her I would never friend her on FB.

She's annoying enough in person or on the phone, I don't another source of cringe.

My mom threw a fit because I PM'd her and she was convinced that other people could read it.

NP here. We have the same mother.

When they first started with email, whenever I sent an email, I had to print it up and fax it to them so that they would remember to go on-line to read it (huh?) and then read any follow-ups or responses. Fortunately, we are past that stage now, but everytime we call, I have to check whether she's seen the latest emails from us. Although she wants to get email from us, it's almost easier for us to just call and tell her things over the phone.

Now, they want to Skype with the grandkids which was really want to do, but my mother can never remember how to get things up and running. My wife gets exasperated that my mother calls 10 minutes before bedtime and I have to spend 15-20 minutes helping her get her computer on, Skype running, help her remember her password, get set up, then get the call going. And then she always answers without video and we have to spend another 5 minutes trying to get her to turn the camera on so that the kids can see her, too. All-in-all, when we finish our 10 minute conversation, we're like a half hour after bedtime.

Op here. I should add that she also uses the wall to write very personal notes. P.S. Mom, other people can see this.

My mom always writes

"bawahaaa" instead of "bwahahahahah"

It drives me insane.
