More on rice...and horses

Mum: Have some Jollof Rice.
Me: No thank you, I'm on some carb free muscle building diet
Mum: WHAT! Why would you want to build muscles?
Me: I knew you'd react like that. Last time I had a six pack you told me I looked like a man.
Mum: You didn't look like a man. You looked like a horse
Me: Why would muscles make me look like a horse?!!
Mum: Well isn't that what those muscle women use to bulk up? Horse Injections.....

We roll deep and we don't get no sleep

".....Cause we'll be up all night until the early light!"

A recent conversation with my mum, brought that Janet Jackson song to mind.

Mum: Your Aunty --- called me to say she's bringing ten people with her to the trad ceremony.
Me: TEN?
Mum: Yes, she says she doesn't "roll to parties alone".



Now I'm stuck picturing an aunt rolling deep like a rapper.
