I totally believe it, because I’ve considered putting up the very same sign in my own bathroom, to direct my two teenage daughters to their OWN bathroom. Seriously, is my bathroom that much more awesome than yours? Well, yes it is, but use your own damn bathroom anyway. You just leave a mess in mine. Ahem. What?

You know what would have made it even more of a good thing? If Mom had taken the time to hand-letter her sign in calligraphy, slipped it in a transparent vellum envelope, and tied it to the mirror with a length of vintage grosgrain ribbon. It’s the little details that make the best impression!

What a serendipitous occurence! Rub shaving cream with a clean linen cloth onto a mirror until it dries, and it won’t steam up during a shower. Now, that’s a good thing.

It seems like there is a standoff between The Note and the Cream. Who will win? They seem equally matched to me. Someone needs to take things to the next level. Maybe writing the same message on her bathroom mirror with mom’s lipstick? No? Too evil?

17 seems too old to be creeping around in mom’s bathroom. I think Charlie’s a pervert and that’s worse than rocket pubes on the toothbrush.

Either that or Charlie’s one of those little boys who likes to put on mommy’s lingerie and sing show tunes infront of the full length mirror.

What if these kids had the adolescent version of Rocketpubes? Maybe they were using her beer shower and when they were done the rocketpubes had affixed themselves to the roof, or her toothbrush?

This one time at band camp… there was a tooth brush incident. I couldn’t figure out why it felt like i was flossing at the same time as i was brushing my teeth. Weird.

Anyways i should add that no children were really hurt at band camp, and the flutes…are there laws against abusing flutes? Never mind.

Oh and by referencing the band camp joke i am in no way some kind of ephebophile.

Reminds me of the time my uncle was fixing a clog in the toilet and yelled, “Why don’t you kids s*** at school?”

Mom wrote this note during a hot flash.
See, no periods!

Spare the rod, spoil the child.

Where did I read that?

Not every episode of physical discipline rises to the level of “child abuse”.
I can guarantee that a “time out” would not have deterred me when I was a child, but the threat of “The Belt” did wonders!

Specifically, I was referring to an episode where Grandpa Simpson is supposed to babysit Bart and Lisa. It shows Grandpa sitting in the Flanders’ living room observing Rod and Todd playing checkers.

Abe: Now you got her, Bart. Jump Lisa’s king.
Rod: I’m not Bart. I’m Rod Flanders.
Abe: There you go with that smart mouth! Lisa, run outside and cut me a switch.
Todd: Yes, sir!

Funny stuff.
