My mom is 65 and we've been having the same exact type of argument over and over and over.
She'll ask me something and then she'll get completely furious with me when I say I don't know.
For example, a few weeks ago we were driving through the Central Valley and she asked me what a pile of stuff in the middle of the field was for. I said I didn't know and she started to describe this pile to me and I was like "I didn't see it and I don't know what it was for." Then she got angry with me and said I was being disrespectful.
The next day her cell phone rang and she asked me how to answer it. I said I had no idea how to answer her phone, and she started screaming at me that I was a little bitch.
Like three days ago she asked me "Who wrote the poem "Will you be my pas el queue?" (sp????) I said I had no idea and she was like "Well it was OBVIOUSLY a joke" and rolled her eyes and I was like "Well I didn't get it at all." Then I asked her who did write it and she couldn't remember at all where it came from or what year it was from, so I was like "How do you expect me to know it then?" and she screamed at me that it was impossible to have a conversation with me.
In every instance, she doesn't know something, so she asks me and she gets pissed at me when I don't know either.
This is a recent thing and I don't get where it's coming from at all.
