A girl shared a story of how she had accidentally used an expletive on her mother one day when she came home from work having a bad day and because of her carelessness with her choice of words, she was grounded by her for a week.
Here is the story
“I am 17 years old this year and am a girl.
I was grounded by my parents because of my poor choice of words and here is the story of how I got myself grounded for a week
So my mother came home from a bad day at work and asked me to make her a cake. Yes I love to bake and have been exceptionally good at it ever since my mother and I used to spend our weekends when I was younger figuring out and trying out new cake recipes.
I said for sure, and made her one. I was in a rush because I knew she wanted to go sit down, and I forgot to make the miniature batch of icing that goes on top. I handed it to her, told her it was hot, and she asked where the icing was.
I sprinted back into the kitchen with socks that I usually wear to sleep on for that extra boost of speed, and made the icing really quick.
I slid back into our living room and handed it to her, and she told me, “wow that was fast!”
Then I said the fatal line, my ultimate demise.
“I’M FAST AS F BOI”
Both of us suddenly become quiet and I can feel the verbal beating I’m about to get.
My mom tells me I’m grounded for a week and the only reason it’s not two is because the cake is really good and she does appreciate it.
So now I’m pretending to do homework but instead I’m writing this to share about my experience.
The most important takeaway from this that I’ve learnt is never to use expletives on your elders even by accident.”
