2 Ways to Interpret: “Well, My Parents Pay My Phone Bill, So”

1. “I am allowing the people who raised me to be a grown woman to spend their hard earned money so I can text and call people and read Twitter when I wake up in the morning. All the money they spent on my schooling and everything else over the years, all the love and support — not enough for me! Not motivated enough to make enough money to pay my own phone bill, apparently. Gonna keep milking them I guess, because that’s the kind of person I am, it seems.”

2. “I have parents that love me and they have some money and they spend some of their money on me each month because they love me and I’m very very lucky and I’m telling you this right now.”

(I only just found out about number 2. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is our classless society.)
