Weight gain

An email exchange between me and my parents:

From me:

Hi Mama, hi Baba,
I cut my hair! Here's a picture just in case you don't recognize me when you see me.


Response:
Marning Hui Hui, We saw your hair cut pictures, did you gain the weight?
Open the following web, is this the station that you always take the train there?

See you Saturday !!!

Baba, Mama


Offensive? Not really; just hilarious and so characteristic of my parents. Every time I go home or even skype with my parents they ask if I've gained weight. If their perceptions held true every single time, the sum of their comments would mean that I am now 200 pounds.

I submitted the email exchange to www.mymomisafob.com. I hope it gets posted.

Oh and I have no idea where they got the pictures of the train stations in my area or why they were looking for those pictures.
