What did your mother say that made your jaw drop?

About 30 years back, I was speaking with my mother.
Well son “ I think I might have got you some tickets”
Oh I said, can my wife have them she would give her right arm to see a Wimbledon tennis final?
Well I slept with the president of the Lawn tennis Association year ago, I think he may have remembered!!
“Mum why is my sister such a bitch!”
Well she is so snotty, O.K. she may have married a bit of money, I don’t know but she feels she is above everybody else.
How would you spank me if I had been sent home from a school camp because of my poor behavior?
What! how could you do that?
What on earth has brought this on, said my mother?
What do you mean son?
Do you know what she said mum?
“Oh come off it mum what would be the point?”
True - how I loved my mum!
Where did cosmic rays come from? Astrophysicists are closer to finding out - Phys.org
So I said to my sister “ You mean to say that that you leave two empty seats rather than give them to your brother” I replied in astonishment. - “Well yes thats how it works in our circle!” responded my sister.
My mother said to me “ Why didn’t you speak to me about this before”
Well the other day she came into my shop asking for the usual discount and mentioned that she had tickets for the wimbledon Tennis final but couldn’t go.
She said, “Oh no I can’t give you our tickets, if we can’t go, well we don’t go - it is just not done to give away final tickets.”
