The beauty about finally getting your own place is that you're a master of your own destiny, free to choose and do whatever you'd like… until your mother comes to visit. 

What is it with mothers rearranging their adult children's homes? It turns out (based on the sheer number of responses to this thread) this is a common occurrence. Many readers responded to the original story with stories of their own about their mothers doing the same (or similar) thing.

Maybe this shouldn't be too surprising—parents love telling you what you're doing wrong; after all, it was their job for most of your life, and sometimes they have trouble letting go. It's also easy for them to see all the ways you're living your life wrong and reflect on the fact that they might have made some mistakes in raising you. They're only human, so rather than reflect on that fact, they'll just rearrange the drawers in the kitchen of your new home instead—how dare you store your silverware in such a bizarrely illogical and inconvenient place.

Read on for this glorious story of petty revenge. Next, check out this high school biology project that imploded an entire family.
