<\/p>\nWe all have a special place in our hearts for the fiercely-caring, most loving, selfless Lebanese mothers, but sometimes they can be difficult to deal with. To ensure you’re going to be kicked out of the house, follow the following steps.<\/p>\n
1. Tell her what you genuinely want for lunch<\/b><\/p>\n
If she asks you what do you want for lunch, do not, I repeat, DO NOT tell her what you want, because it will turn into a rant of how you do nothing around the house and now you expect her to pull off a 3 course meal, when all you asked for was labneh<\/i>.<\/p>\n
2. Politely disagree with her opinion<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If she’s commenting on something in the news and you calmly express your counter opinion, you are inherently disrespecting her 40 years of experience – because she started engaging in numerous intellectual, cultural, and political discourses since the moment she was born.<\/p>\n
3. Fail to reply to her WhatsApp messages within a 2 second time range<\/b><\/p>\n
She will begin sending voice notes, texts, and the next thing you’ll know she’s at your office door berating you for not replying to your own mother.<\/p>\n
4. Say you had dinner at your friend’s house last evening<\/b><\/p>\n
“Mish 3ajbik tabkhe? Eh shoufo shu ha teklo hal jom3a, ana mish de3se el matbakh ba2a<\/i>” But mom, they invited me what can I do?<\/p>\n
5. Tell her you met someone last week and you want to introduce them to her<\/b><\/p>\n
You: I only met them last week
Your mom: bas lezim deghre t3arfeene 3leh<\/i>
You: it’s only been a week..
Your mom: hatta law, ya 3ayb el shoum<\/i><\/p>\n
6. Ask your dad about something<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Even if it’s something you want particularly from your dad, she will loudly say: “Ana shu hon? Manzar? Ejer kerse?<\/i>“. She’s always the boss, and you should know that. <\/p>\n
7. Sleep more than 5 hours<\/b><\/p>\n
The trick is to wake up just before she does, then take a nap later on, otherwise you’re a lazy slob and you’re wasting your youth. <\/p>\n
8. Say no to her arranging a blind date with one of her friends’ son\/daughter<\/b><\/p>\n
She will take this as a personal insult to her opinion, people evaluation skills, and whole life. <\/p>\n
9. Tell her you’re busy with work when she asks you to help her with a technical online problem<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
She will commence with a two hour lecture of how ungrateful you are because she singlehandedly taught you how to read, write, drive, and how she even helped you with your master’s thesis. <\/p>\n
10. Say you want to use the expensive china and silverware because your friends are coming over for dinner<\/b><\/p>\n
You done did it with this one, you will be thrown out of the house in a matter of hours. Those are reserved for when a prince comes to ask your hand in marriage, other than that step away from the forbidden salon vitrine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
