We’ve all probably welcomed our moms to social media by now and have either been embarrassed by their comments or laughed hysterically at a friend who has been. Either way, our moms serve as a source of unwavering support and entertainment; here are the six types of moms you’ll find across the channels.
1. The one who wants her son to get married.
All you need is a decent picture of yourself and a public profile and you’ll find that more often than not, a mother from some part of the country will politely compliment you but try to slip in some attractive quality her son has in attempt to set you two up. Thanks tante, but I’ll pass.
2. The one who wants her daughters to get married.
Nearly every mom with single girls in their mid-twenties comes under this category. She’ll usually indirectly display gorgeous pictures of her daughters all dressed up hoping a distant cousin or family friend will ask for her hand in marriage.
3. The one that likes everything
Moms are our biggest fans, so it should come as no surprise that they like, comment on, and share just about anything we post. That status you posted about how badly Barcelona did that last match? They’ll share that too, just because you wrote it. Adorable, we know.
4. The one that’s clueless about an app’s functionality
Luckily, they can now zoom on Instagram. The actual work starts when they first create an account and are getting accustomed to its functionality. Warning: expect your name to be called every two minutes to explain to them what “zis one” does.
5. The one that showcases her family’s entire life
A mother’s pride and joy is her children and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. However, the rest of Facebook really don’t care. Every angle and every mugshot must be uploaded to “Rima’s 23rd Birthday” album of 827 images.
6. The one that’s always watching…
If your mother falls under this category, expect frequent bahdale texts to remove that latest drunken photo you posted because you forgot she was there, or, if this applies to your friend’s mother, expect another bahdale from your own mother (who is blocked from your Facebook) informing you that you humiliated her at her latest sob7iye with her friends.
