Being told off as an adultWhen was the last time you were properly told off? You know: treated as an errant child rather than the sophisticated adult you are.
The sort of thing that dredges up an involuntary teenage mumble of "Sorry, Miss" whilst you stare at the ground.
Go on, tell us what childish thing you were up to when you got caught.
Oh, and can we have more than one-line answers this time? Cheers!

MotherAngry JTW just popping in to say hello.
I have the misfortune of living with my mother just now - I got back, about an hour ago, from Thames Ditton. A 5 hour drive as it turns out.
So I got out of the car in a mood blacker than the inside of Gordon Brown's head* - I'm tired, bad tempered, my eyes, feet, head and body hurt and I really can't be arsed to talk.
What does my Mum do, she tries to talk to me. Or rather at me. Has a go at me like I'm a teenager about being in a bad mood and that I shouldn't be and that it's "just a drive up" - It was f****ng 5 b****** p****** hours.
Then I try to do some work and Vista locks up (it does that a LOT) and I slam the lid of my laptop down - cue another go about being bad tempered - I believe she actually said "Eh, don't" - it was my WORK f****** laptop FFS (I'm on my shiny new Mac just now).
The moral here is that no matter how old you are, your Mum can still put you in a shit mood, belittle you and treat you like a teenager no matter how old you are.
Mothers seem to have a way of doing that - is there a school they're sent to????
I'm 31.
Kill me now.
*No, I don't get that analogy either
