Guess mum's gonna kill me now.

TL;DR (as requested): Mum went completely bonkers because sis doesn't want to go to christmas lunch, I solidarized and now she is even more bonkers.
So, today would have been Christmas lunch for the broader family. That in itself is always prone to a little bit of drama because we kinda have two fractions in the family (conservative christians vs left-wing atheists).
Add to that, that someone planned this one to be in a place where the cooking is stuck 30 years in the past (as in "Fish is not vegetarian?"), and coffee afterwards is planned with a family who very much lets the "look at us we are so perfect" hang out, and it's a sure-fire way to get my sister into "nope" mode.
Cue my mom on phone with my sister. "How could you" and "You are just envious of them" were the more sane things I heard (was visiting them while that happend). Dad goes "uhm, you know she hates it there" at which point my mum just absolutely escalates. I'm like "ok, fuck this, I'm outa here" (at which point I was still planning to go to lunch but not coffee afterwards, because I'm not one for drama usually).
Later that afternoon, I get a message from sis that my mum actually dropped by at her place to heap more shit at her. Cue me to SMS mum "Ok, your behavior is unacceptable,, I'm also not coming tomorrow" (which, as always, she didn't read it seems).
So today she shows up like nothing ever happened (because having multiple ppl drive the same way with multiple cars is just wasteful), I calmly repeat my sms in about the same number of words and hang up (yes, I know, that was a purposeful escalation). Next 10 minutes I get like 20 calls and a constant ringing doorbell.
Srsly idk what's wrong with that woman.

Crazy family members making Christmas unhappy and stressful is a Christmas tradition observed all over the world, merry Christmas.
1 mondaysaltythrowaway 2017-12-17
yep, but usually she's not that crazy ...
1 scatmunchies 2017-12-17
Just kill her first. She’s probably got it coming, anyway.

Christmas is about surprises.

When I was 14, my grandma threatened suicide because I made a joke about how my little brothers got such awesome presents (we all got an xbox) and we big kids didn't get as cool as a gift
It was suppose to be chuckle moment that my brothers are used to hearing from me.
But my grandma escalated the situation to the point that every child in the house was sobbing, because she was accosting me for being ungrateful. I could never get a word out, so it didn't matter. Eventually I deflected in desperation with some information that I won't share. But it was enough to get her off my case and send her running down the road with a knife.
Anyways, had my uncle been there, it would have never happened because he kept the crazy bitch in check. But she's dead now. I still miss her, cause she had her good moments

She seems sexually frustrated. Seduce her and have sex with her.

It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off!

Narcissistic parent. Just baseball bat her

What's the problem with having lunch on Christmas?
Your mom is probably freaking out because she realizes she wasted her life raising up two ungrateful pieces of shit that won't even have lunch with her on the biggest family holiday of the year. Now she gets to presumably have Christmas lunch by herself surrounded by people with their families who actually give a shit about them.
Honestly, no wonder she had a melt down. It's not an easy thing to realize you wasted your life on garbage human beings.
1 rrrents 2017-12-17
Yeah, it would be SO hard to actually ask your children how they want to spend that day.
1 grep_var_log 2017-12-17
Scouring Reddit for potential /r/drama comments isn't really in the holiday spirit.
1 shitsfuckedupalot 2017-12-17
Yeah no one likes family shit. It fuckin sucks. No need 2 b cunts about it. Typical libtard asshats.
1 mondaysaltythrowaway 2017-12-17
So why do it? If nobody likes it what's the point?
1 shitsfuckedupalot 2017-12-17
Because its family and that's what you do.
1 plebeka 2017-12-17
'Just 'cause I said so' is a stupid reason.
1 shitsfuckedupalot 2017-12-17
Thats not what i said at all you sperg. Your family raised you. They're your blood. Sometimes you do stuff you dont like for them cause it's the right thing to do. Fuckin aspies.
1 plebeka 2017-12-17
What the fuck do you know about how and if anybody raises anyone? I sure as fuck ain't sittin around and talking nicely to that uncle who liked to diddle little kids.
1 shitsfuckedupalot 2017-12-17
Where in the fuck did you even get that from you absolute tard? We were talking about OPs mom and being half decent to her. You really have the reading comprehension of a down syndromed llama. Just cause your uncle fucked you up (although probably not causing that much damage cause you were clearly already challenged) doesnt mean everyone elses uncle did. Thats literally baby's first logical fallacy.
1 plebeka 2017-12-17
My point being, you really don't know OPs circumstances at all. At least I don't 'coz OP can't write for shit but I'm willing to give her the benefit of doubt.
1 shitsfuckedupalot 2017-12-17
Why tho? Why not ops mom?
1 plebeka 2017-12-17
🤔 good point
1 MisterHundred 2017-12-17
there would be no problem if it was a small thing. i do this with my mum and sister every year, it's fun. shit hits the fan when you have a large family that you don't want to interact with at all. this is where i tell people to fuck off.
1 mondaysaltythrowaway 2017-12-17
That this is not about having lunch on Christmas in the narrower family. This is about the wider family gathering and as stated there is many very valid reasons to dislike these events.
I am perfectly happy to have lunch or dinner with my narrower family (including parents). Just not some aunts/uncles/cousins who use this opportunity for indulging how great they are.
1 VidiotGamer 2017-12-17
Oh boo hoo, your poor little ego. If you can't suffer the boorish behavior of some of your relatives for a couple of hours, how do you think people feel who have to interact with you on a daily basis?
1 DoctorFahrenheit 2017-12-17
You sound like a bad son. Good job on ruining the holidays.
1 Luminous_Shade 2017-12-17
No country worth living in spells it like this. Genetic birth defects cause this.
You put the soy in soyboy.
1 mondaysaltythrowaway 2017-12-17
Fwiw I love meat. Does not make these places less tardy.
