I figure by the time the wedding comes around, ICE will be able to legally monitor all web traffic, among many other outrageous and currently unthinkable powers, and the name alone will put IMA right on the top of the list.
There is a chance my wedding will be the redneck event of the century and if that's the case ICE better come heavy because they will probably be out gunned. lol
Does anyone else's Mom leave voicemails as if she's having an actual conversation with you? I swear they last 2 minutes sometimes and I'm not even kidding. She tells me everything she wanted to as if I picked up. No real reason to call he back.

No - but my dad will still get my voicemail and say, "Hello? Ryan? Are you there? Hello?"

It's gotten better but yes.
When I'm on the phone though it's like nothing has changed. I love my mom but every conversation takes longer than it needs to
Believe me, your parents don't like forgetting sh!t anymore than you do. Give yourself another 25-30 years and see.
Just consider this aggravation payback for all the years they spent listening to you go on and on about your favorite super hero, toy, while failing to listen to anything they told you.

My Mom will say something like "I guess you're not home". It's a cellphone, I don't need to be home to answer it.
My Dad's outgoing message on his cellphone was, "This is Jim, I'm not home right now..."

Life's a [expletive]. Then you grow old.
I do my best to feign interest in all of my son's pokemon stories. I play Pokemon Go with him so I have half an idea what he's talking about (and I have a little fun playing it), but he thinks that translates into interest in all things pokemon - comics, cartoon, video games, etc. The stories never cease so I do a terrible job feigning interest. He's also a lot like me so I look forward to his thinly veiled boredom with me and my concerns in 30-40 years.

These both slay me because of how accurate they are. My mom in particular will do this exact same stuff.
