Last week, my mom thought a thunderstorm was rolling in and was like "oh no, but I need to shower"

Posted by ty97 Jul 10 '23, 18:21

And was I like "then go shower"
Mom: "You can't shower during a thunderstorm, it's dangerous"
Me: "How many people have you ever heard of that died showering during a thunderstorm?"

And then CNN puts this on their front page today

My mom secretly works for CNN just to troll me (www.cnn.com)
