Yesterday, when telling her that Stevie Wonder was expecting triplets with his 25-year old fiancee, she replied "I wonder if she was taking any utility drugs". So, I repeated the statement (an exercise I do often with Ignorantics), and she immediately corrected her statement arguing that the meds she's taking for insomnia were to blame. Though it is true that multiple births are a lot of work, I failed to see the utility is the use of the term in this example. BTW, have I ever mentioned that denial is the first stage of Ignoranticism?#IfYouSaySoMommy #SideEye
*music playing* Today, I join an elite group of Ignorantics readers who turn their mothers in to Ignorantics regularly.
If you have any desire to read the article on Stevie Wonder, here it is:
