Pic: Every Irish mam’s struggles with texting is summed up in this message

Everyone can relate to this

Everyone can relate to this.

We all love hearing from our mam but sometimes the message can be a little bit muddled, especially when it’s via text message.

Predictive text has embarrassed us all at some stage but there’s something truly hilarious about seeing your own parents failing to get a grip with modern technology.

Personally speaking, I’ve probably received a message from my mam where she intended to say, “Are you coming to dinner?”, but ended up texting “Arse yellow comfort dancing?”.

We’ve all received one of these messages at some point.

JOE reader Katiem Harney sent in this text conversation, that her sister had with her mam, and it’s absolute gold.
