My mom is a miserable bitch. I know it's not as severe as mothers who physically beat and steal, but she may as well slap me across the face with how much resentment and outward contempt she displays at me. Oh and not to mention her verbal beratements. I know I use pretty severe words to describe her anonymously, but I swear that most days I wear a mask and let her get away with her petty shit because it's always a fight if I so much as insinuate telling her boo.

All this bitch does every day is watch tv and be on her phone anyway, so was me suggesting she use her time to watch a tutorial video such a great offense worthy of yelling at me and getting mean? I asked her why she has gotta be so mean to me but all she could yell is that I am actually the mean one.
She stomped off to her room and stewed in there for several minutes.
But does it stop there? No. She picks fights until she is satisfied when she feels low.
