Four tickets to the most popular boy band in the world right now, One Direction, have gone up for auction on eBay by one severely peeved mother.
Sorry Irish 'Directioners', the tickets are for their Australian gig at Sydney Olympic Park in October.
So what is it that made this Mum sell the tickets that she purchased as a birthday present for her daughter and her daughter's friends to enjoy? Well, according to this unhappy mammy, you can thank her daughter’s "self righteous and lippy attitude" for their sale.
It turns out her teenage daughter had been telling a few white lies concerning ‘sleepovers’ in a friend’s house. “YOU all LIED to us about sleep overs so you could hang like little trollops at an older guys HOUSE????? Pffft!!”
The mother hopes that revoking her gift will teach her daughter a lesson and help her become a responsible functioning adult.
The full description reads:
"THIS AUCTION IS FOR ALL 4 ONE DIRECTION TICKETS IN SYDNEY OCTOBER 25th. You can thank my daughters self righteous and lippy attitude for their sale. See sweety? And you thought I was bluffing. I hope the scowl on your bitchy little friends faces when you tell them that your dad and i revoked the gift we were giving you all reminds you that your PARENTS are the ones that deserve love and respect more than anyone. And your silly little pack mentality of taking your parents for fools is one sadly mistaken. Anyhow. Your loss someone else's gain who deserves them! THE TICKETS ARE SEATED IN ROW O section 57. REMEMBER AUCTION IS FOR ALL 4 TICKETS and will be sent registered post.
...OH YOUR FRIENDS THOUGHT THAT A FEW PRANKS CALLS WOULD PUT ME OFF SELLING THE GIFT WE BOUGHT FOR THEM for YOUR BIRTHDAY because YOU all LIED to us about sleep overs so you could hang like little trollops at an older guys HOUSE????? Pffft!! I find it HIGHLY amusing that you girls think you invented this stuff. Tricks like this on OUR parents is how HALF of you were conceived .....And why a lot of your friends DONT have an address to send that Fathers day card to!!! I'm not your friend. I'm your MOTHER. And I am here to give you the boundaries that YOU NEED to become a functional responsible adult. You may hate me now..... But I don't care. Its my job to raise a responsible adult..not nuture bad habits in my teen age child." [SIC]
