Okay.... that one hurt... :'(

My mother is convinced reading is a waste of time; she is uneducated and couldn't possibly understand the pleasures of a man of letters such as myself. I relish in the written word; she relishes in smoking weed and doing manual labor. A yokel birthed me, but I need not be a yokel myself. She can say my intellectual labor is not true labor (this is accurate enough), but she will never be able to gainsay my delight, my rapture, my bliss at the delicate intertwining of the words that makeup our lovely English idiom.
