No one can text you quite like your mom can.

8 Classic Texts You Get From Your Mom
Thought Catalog

There's nothing quite like texts from our moms. In my experience, they usually involve a lot of punctuation, and I often have to decipher what she's saying before I can respond. It's not too different than getting drunk texts from my friends. Here are some classic 'mom texts' we've all received.

1. The Unnecessary Worry.


2. The (slightly more necessary, but still unnecessary) Worry.

My mom and I run into this one the most.




Seriously, all the time.


3. The Complete Lack of Worry.

At this point, should we actually be the one whose worried?

But, we've all gotten these a time or two. Moms have a lot to think about, what city their child is in can be a hard thing to remember.

4. The Hieroglyphic.


5. The Tease.

My mom likes to tell me about the fun she's having, and often include pictures but no invitation. Sometimes, like in the picture below, she even likes to add insult to injury. I hope this is all moms and not just mine?

6. Cryptic Messages.

These tend to involve a lot of 'haha's and '...'

or manic laughing at my age two years ago, in my moms case.

7. The Overly Excited.

A world without emojis sure can be dark.

8. The Unexpected Surprise.

Depending on who you ask, this could be the worst or best type of text from mom.

It's by far my personal favorite.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
