My eldest brother kept getting detention in middle school.

My mother told him if he got detention one more time, she was going to do something and completely embarrass him.

He got detention again.

One unsuspecting day, the class bell rings.

My brother and his friends head down the school hallway to go and see what is causing the growing roar of laughter coming from the staircase.

What does he find when he gets there?

Our mother.

Sitting in a chair wearing her:

Morning pajamas

Hair curlers still in

A smile

And a great big cardboard sign that read:

“Hi! I’m Shane Doherty’s mom!”

After dying from embarrassment, he never got detention again for the rest of the year

That’s a taste of how crazy my mother can be.
