Like, I do appreciate her instilling values and teaching me how to clean (because when I was a kid she was a stay at home mum and did everything and didn't teach myself anything, you know how Mumma boys exist and they don't know how to cook or like wash clothes because their mum did it for them, that was me. Of course, now I know how to do things, so it's not like I'm completely out of the dark), but I just... ugh. I totally totally understand how you feel but like... yeah from the perspective of my me and my mum.
Also, I'm glad you loved that skit, I watch it often. I've even shown mum and she's like jokingly telling me to fuck off haha. "Get rid of the couches, we can't let people know WE SIT!" and "There can't be any sign of living in this house", I often quote those two lines, especially around routine inspections.
