My momma never told me any such thing. She also never told me to keep my elbows off the table or to send people thank you notes after getting a gift. Apparently other people’s moms tell them these things, but not mine. Mine just told me stuff like don’t chew with your mouth open or no saying certain words.

But I digress, I wash behind my ears every time I shower, no more, no less.
