Punctuation Is Important
Clearly, the person that disclosed this story is still traumatized. But moms will be moms. They wholeheartedly believe in the power of proper punctuation. “Mum’s most recent was telling a man on a stall at Shrewsbury Steam Rally that he needed a new sign with the apostrophes in the right place. I was 37.”
That’s not an assumption. That’s just a straight-up fact. You know this because it’s being relayed to you with 100 percent confidence in an article on the internet. Ergo, it must be true, right? Anyway, mothers will mother everyone around them regardless of DNA. Maybe this particular momma has an English degree or is a teacher.
