"I'm baby" yup I feel that.

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 16 points 13 hours ago

I mean... That was exactly the right thing to do.
Respond as fast as possible as clearly as possible.

But looking back on it, it is pretty fucking funny to read.

Imagine if the last thing you saw from your mom was k.

Fun fact: this comment makes sense both in English and in Spanish!

FYI: Text to 911 is a thing in many places.

What happens if it isn't available in your area do you get a notification or you just sit there waiting?

That why you own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion.He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up, Just as the founding fathers intended

I was about to roll my eyes and scroll past your comment but then I read "powdered wig". I was committed to read it all when I saw "smoothbore". The "tally ho lads" was hilarious. Great job all the way through!

It's what they would have wanted. All the way down.

[–] glitch1985@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

This might be the most beautiful thing I've ever read.

“K”

“I’m baby”?

Did she mean “I’m busy”?

If so this is messed up.

[–] Twiglet@feddit.uk 7 points 11 hours ago

I'm guessing it's supposed to be "I am, baby" (in response to 'are you coming home') but written in a panicked haste.

Anyone thinking she'd have the time or calm to properly spell check before sending when her kid's in danger is delusional.

[–] BananaTrifleViolin@lemmy.world 9 points 13 hours ago

Hopefully she was rushing home - maybe driving? - and couldn't text well?

"K", and "I am baby"?

Mom is texting while driving and freaking out, that's why her texts are like that
