My mother called my 14-year old son a "bastard." In a joking manner, you ask? No.You might wonder how a 74-year old woman would think it appropriate to insult her eldest grandchild in this manner. Excellent question. After much thought and deliberation, I don't know. Yet, it brings back fond memories of her referring to my sisters and I (in public) as "the three bitches." All the more annoying since only one out of three of us is really a bitch! (Try to guess which one.)
As you can imagine, it doesn't sit well with Mama Bear when someone messes with her cubs! So, the next time Granny's meanness resurfaces, I will tell my husband to swing her over the pool again, only this time, let go.

Hey, just tell Dan to throw her in the pool.
End of story. But, ya know, be nice about it.
Oh my God, that is SUCH a good idea!
