Sometimes moms do cool things like driving you to the mall. Mostly, they are embarrassing.

The day she joined Facebook.
The time she called the Peruvian government to report you missing when in reality you were having the time of your life, biking through South America with your girlfriend. (Okay, that’s just Garrett Hand’s mom, dubbed the “World’s most embarrassing mom” by Gawker last year for doing that and igniting a nationwide search for her 25-year-old son who, it turns out, was having so much fun in Peru that he forgot to respond to his mom’s messages on Facebook. Big mistake.)
The time she called Channing Tatum “hot.”

The time she hit the dance floor. (Although, anyone who witnessed the first lady dance-off with Jimmy Fallon in their viral YouTube clip, the Evolution of Mom Dancing, knows Michelle Obama is the coolest.)

The time she told the world that you are God’s gift to the world. Shown here: Justin Bieber with his mom, Pattie Mallette, whose book, Nowhere but Up, essentially says just that.
The time she kissed you in front of all your friends. (But we all know, of course, that kisses from mom are the best).
