PEDESTRIAN.TV has partnered with Village Roadshow to show a lil’ love to our off-bone life givers. In cinemas August 11, Bad Moms‘ cast – made up of bonafide boothangs like Mila Kunis and Kristen Bell – is what mega lols are made of. You can check out Bad Moms’ Facebook right HERE.
We really are #Blessed, y’know. Imagine being born in an age when Facebook didn’t devour your soul? Or in a time when you couldn’t validate your existence through others double-tapping your ‘Gram? Truly, truly horrifying stuff.
Unfortunately, that’s the reality for our mothers – and in addition to not being exposed to all of the information era’s soul-crushing elements, they weren’t surrounded by technology like mobiles during puberty and beyond.
Not that we need to remind you (as you would’ve copped it a few times), but mums usually can’t text for shit. That’s a-okay, though, ’cause they’re awesome in every other way. Well, not every other way, but a lot of other ways.
Anyway, here’s a bunch of mums who’ve probably uttered the phrase “how do I technology?” due to their inability to send a text.
1. This mum struggled hard when her smartphone virginity was getting plucked.

2. TFW autocorrect is hell-bent on making your mother describe vino using genital-related words.

3. That’s not how it works, ma. Ten points to Gryffindor for creativity, though.

4. You gots to wonder why this mom had this photo saved to begin with, TBH.

5. While this mum’s got the whole texting thing down, she sure as shit can’t read room numbers.

6. The struggle of mothers sending texts without their glasses is R E A L. Jokes, she just sassy AF.

7. In the words of Meryl Streep, “Did you fall down and smack your little head on the pavement?”

8. Even if this mum took a month-long course titled Internet Basics 101, she’d still be in Struggletown.

9. Someone needs to make an internet acronym dictionary specifically for mums who have access to iPhones.

10. THE SPELLING IS LITERALLY ON THE BACK OF THE DEVICE YOU’RE CURRENTLY USING?!

11. I’ve heard leaving gum in your vagina is the worst.

12. This kid made their mum’s phone autofill “do the dishes” to “throw that ass in a circle”. Not all heroes wear capes, people.

13. When your mum uses severe tactics to discourage masturbation.

As you can see, mums can struggle with tech. Mums can also battle with general child-rearing. But you know what? That’s all gravy, baby.
Bad Moms – starring badass mums IRL, like Mila Kunis and Kristen Bell – celebrates the imperfections of our life-givers, as well as their ability to get down like it’s 1999. If you haven’t seen the trailer, check it out below ’cause it looks like a massive lol.
Bad Moms is in cinemas August 11 and we reckon it’ll be worth getting amongst. If you want to learn more about the flick, then head to Bad Moms’ Facebook page HERE or by using #BadMoms.
