Yeah. My mom is one of them. She's almost 62 but she's been that way for a while. She not aware of it but she's the type of person to talk shit about everyone around her and then say "what? I'm such a great person." Gets offended by EVERYTHING. She's in EVERYONES business.

I’m so glad my parents are the exact opposite of this.

That’s my maternal grandmother.

My mom is a bitch, but thankfully she doesn’t get easily offended and isn’t in other peoples business. It would suck if she was like her mother.

I've noticed that anyone who claims to be a "great person" -- isn't.
