The running joke in our family is that our Grandma is like
Grandma Madea Below is a Gchat conversation with my cousin about my Grandma (halmonee) getting in a car accident:
Soojin: Oh hunni did you hear about gramma madea?
me: no what happened?! is she okay?
soojinmkim: she got into a car accident
me: :O WHAT?! IS SHE OKAY?
soojinmkim: a mini winnebago hit madea in her new hybrid
me: When did this jappen?
me: what the freka?! whose fault was it?
soojinmkim: the homeless man who lived in his trailor
me: oh man~ what the heck
soojinmkim: he hit her and took off
me: so what's going to happen? OMG...and she okay? was it bad?
soojinmkim: so of course our gangsta gramma madea followed his ass
me: AHAHAHAHa are you serious?
soojinmkim: yes girl she followed him and chased him down a dead end street and ran up on him screaming
holding the door open of his car so he couldnt go NOWHERE
me: LOL... omg i hope he didnt hurt her
soojinmkim: She's FINE madea is like 80 she dont need to be chasing no hit and run assholes in MAR VISTA
mar vista is still a little hood
me: dang.. so is he going to pay for the accident? dang. halmonee is gangsta.
soojinmkim: thank gawd that big auntie was home and it was close. oh.. check this. HE HAS NO INSURANCE and LIVES in his trailor park
me: okay.. so what's going to happen then?
soojinmkim: he tried to say he was going to his sisters house and some old chinese couple came out
me: does halmonee have insurance? what the heck? is he chinese?
soojinmkim: and the old man tried to take off again
me: oh heck no. dang this is so drama
soojinmkim: so madea ran up on him screaming and wouldnt let him close the door to his car just standing there like. YOU AINT GOING NO WHERE EE-NOM!!!...then big auntie came to the scene and saw madea screaming at him in his face and holding his door like YOU AINT GOING NOWHERE FOOL. IMMA GET YOU SUKKA
me: dannng i love halmonee. she's legit.
soojinmkim: I know! right
i was like.. umm madea, you are like 80 and imma need you to simmer down cause that man you ran up on couldnve had a gun or a knife. times are tough these days and people are crazy
me: i know. dang that woman is FEARLESS
soojinmkim: Isnt she? i LOVE HER shes fine though. she sitting at home laughing at the situation. she was yelling at him in KONGLISH girl
me: aww is she? im glad..
HAAHAHAHa. omg this is so bad soojin, im like cracking up at work
soojinmkim: i can hear her now. WHAT ARE YOUu DOOING?? EE NOM EE GEE NYANG! YOU DDEH RUH my CHA!
soojinmkim: madea taught me to be the "I AM STRONG SUPERWOMAN" like when she used to whoop my ass for minor things but she climbed trees to feed us oranges madea is the shit. i dunno ANY other grammas who can survive getting hit by a car in her late seventies deal with the death of her husband and still ride around in style in a hybrid while chasing mf-ers down who disrespect her!
she's my IDOL sigh
I love our grandma.
