I’ve shared these stories before, but I’ll share them again… They’re not necessarily bad experiences, but mom used to always make me and my family facepalm at some of the things she does/says.
On a trip to disneyland we went to a Carls Jr. after closing time and there was a HUGE line at the drive thru, my mom actually went inside and complained to the manager and suggested that there be two drive thrus at this Carl’s Jr, one for regular cars and one for Mazdas, (No, I’m not kidding) which is the car she drives.
This one isn’t really directly related to vacations, but we were on vacation went we went to see this movie… At the movie theatre she exploded and went apeshit on the poor teenage cashier who was getting our popcorn simply because there was traffic on the road and it made us semi late for our movie, she kept asking him about the traffic outside and when he said that he didn’t know how the traffic was (which he wouldn’t, he’s working) she went crazy and started threatening to tell the manager that he was being rude to customers. There was even a brief moment where me and the cashier looked into each other’s eyes and kind of had a brief conversation that was like “Dude, your mom is crazy” and I replied “I know.. sorry..” On a vacation to New York city she kept complaining very loudly to random pedestrians, that there is too much traffic in New York City, and they should really ban cars there because it’s making the tourists feel uncomfortable. (As if she wanted the pedestrians to do something about it)
In Washington D.C. she flagged down a police officer and complained to him that the National Mall was too big, and that it should be made smaller so tourists can more easily get around.
