My mother must be the 6th most gullible person in Australia. I don't know who the other two are, i'm just leaving room in case someone finds some more gullible people.

Does anyone else's mother actually believe/answer those sweepstakes JUNK MAIL that we all get from time to time? "The Sweepstakes united Corp. of Canada would like you to win our $250 000 Super best first place sweepstakes prize!" Wow! You mean i could win? just for doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING?!? Canada must really like me! You dill. Why on earth she thinks she could win $250k just by replying to a letter, oh wait, there's a maths equation at the bottom of the reply letter (12 + 2 x 5 - 18 = ?) So to win you have to be super smart too!

She got a letter today saying "Congratulations! You are the Highest Score Holder!" And felt mighty proud of herself. She should feel proud of herself for having enough saliva to lick the COUNTLESS envelopes she has to send back in order to "win the big one." And to sweeten the deal, occasionally she gets an ever-so-slightly-gold-plated ring or chain or some crap worth about 6c IF that.

I love my mum, i do, but boy oh boy it's hard to take her seriously some times. It's not just the sweepstakes either, she loves to crap on about the benefits of vitamins, and all these "medicines" that are supposed to cure whatever it is you happen to have... Vitamin pills are so freaking expensive too. If i had a vitamin deficiency, or after a big night out, then i'd jump at the chance to take some, but i'm not popping two pills everyday just to have my urine turn fluorescent yellow. In order for me to take a pill, it has to have some sort of pain killer or something a little more "euphoric" in it. Bring on the vitamins with the crazy colours and the little smiley face printed on them! *wink wink*
