Westminster College student Connor Cox’s mother may win the award of “Pettiest Mom Alive” after she pulled this stunt…
Like most college students, when Connor Cox received a package from his mom, he assumed it would be a care package, boy was he wrong.
According to WTOP News (the ABC Maryland Affiliate):
“I got two boxes and I opened one and it had food in it and I realized there wasn’t food in the other one,” Cox, 18, told ABC News. “It was a bunch of trash, tissues [and] soda cans.”
Cox, who is originally from Leonardtown, Maryland, immediately called his mother Terri to ask what was with the box of trash.
“[I said] ‘Did you send me the wrong package? Why did you send me this?’” Cox said.
“[She said,] ‘No, that’s the trash you were supposed to take out,’” he added, laughing.
Cox, who is studying criminal justice, said he laughed hysterically about the gag gift, then tweeted a photo of the package, which quickly went viral.
The college student said he wasn’t surprised that his mom pranked him.
“She has a good sense of humor,” Cox said. “She’s always really caring and she knows what to say at the exact time she should say it. She’s a good mom.”
Cox, who has three sisters, added that he has a rather unique relationship with his mom.
“It’s not a normal mom-son relationship,” he described. “She’s kind of like my best friend … it’s special for sure.”

Thank goodness the format and concept of American Idol was adapted to other talents and other shows in general. Once the popular show ended the public was concerned a lot of good talent would go undiscovered.

No matter what your parents may have said about body art growing up, most people reach adulthood knowing the truth, tattoos are cool. They can be a very strong form of self expression, one more powerful than simply slapping on a pin or walking around with a vague slogan on your jacket. They can also just be pretty cute or just plain awesome. Some people just pick something they think is neat and get it done, while others toss and turn for months trying to decide on the perfect design. Hopefully in the end, you wind up with something you’re happy with, even proud of. But some people don’t get quite what they asked for, or realize too late that maybe they should have just gone with a flower or a bird. Here are some of those people.
