Like mother, like daughter?

By Megan McArdle
Oh, Jesus, I'm going to vomit. No, I'm not, because I refuse to believe that this is real. Like pretty much everyone else in the known universe, I have had ugly fallings-out with school friends. But my mother would have killed herself before she would have deigned to act like a teenager in order to embroil herself in my private dramas. And she would have had me committed had she caught me saying anything like what I just read on that website. Update A commenter suggests that, as I suspected, this is fake. I can't figure out if this is more or less disturbing.
