I'd like to introduce you to my favorite YouTube "star", John Roberts. I came across THIS video he did last year and loved it so much that I then did something really embarrassing; I signed up for an account just so I could subscribe to his channel.
He did a great one for Mother's Day last year (which you can see by clicking HERE), but my favorite one by far is this year's version, in which he absolutely nails every Mother's Day cliché there is. Double click on either 'play' arrow if you have trouble:
"C'mon, let's go. Let's go! I want my presents! Oh, look at the ducks!"
Happy Mother's Day! I hope you get to enjoy yourself!

OMG, that is hysterical! I can see my mom doing at least 10 of these things!!
The only line missing is: "Now get your cheese and go to bed. I'm done looking at your face for today!" ;)
The scary thing? I have said every single thing on that video, either to my husband or my kid (yes, including "C'mon, let's go. Let's go! I want my presents!").
But I can't believe he missed, "Yes, I know, I'm a horrible mother. Now get your shoes and get in the car before I leave you for the wolves."
The NYC accent nails it, though - makes me miss Queens (snif!).
Leave me alone, it's Mother's Day!
@Melissa: Isn't it, though? I love this guy.
@Jen: That phrase would have totally fit in, too. He even has the exact tone down!
@Trish: That "wolves" phrase isn't one I'm familiar with, but I bet he could have pulled it off! He's brilliant, and I the Long Island accent is the best part. It makes me miss NYC, too! "What are you beeping at, a**hole?!"
I think my favorite was "What is burning?". My mom said that every day I swear. What was wrong with her nose?
btw, My favorite youtube star is Brandon Hardesty. His Jurassic Park re-enactment is pure genius.
that was so funny! love the hair.
If you hadn't told me this was John Roberts, I would have sworn that my Aunt in Staten Island made this.
"Oh, look at the ducks"...why that random line made me laugh I have no clue.
Great video!
@Spammon: I love that line, too! It sounds to me like you kids were in the kitchen an awful lot. I just watched that Hardesty video. The kid's pretty good! Jeff Goldblum is way hotter, though-- but I guess you're probably not judging him in that category.
@Karyn: I know! Better than Britney's old weave!
@Taj: I swear he could be just about every woman on Staten/Long Island/ in Queens. That "Oh, Look at the ducks!" line is, I think, my favorite. It's the one that makes me laugh the hardest anyway.
@Colleen: I've watched it more times than I'll ever admit.
jules - Never in my wildest thoughts would I have imagined anyone thinking Jeffery Goldblum was hot after watching him in The Fly.
@Spammon: Congratulations, you just made me gag! NO, not the Jeff Goldblum from The Fly, the Jeff Goldblum from Jurassic Park. "Must go faster!!!!. THAT Jeff Goldblum. Never speak of The Fly again, I'll have nightmares.
When he goes into the kitchen: That totally happened to me.
Hilarious!
i forgot all about this! i wish my mom were that cool. oh well, there's always the next one.
