Stop making me cry, Michael Phelps!

Mom and I are watching the Olympics, and she said that swimming lessons have jumped as kids are all, "I want to be like Michael Phelps!" And then:

Me: Well, he seems like a nice kid - he might make a good role model. It's better than wanting to be like some of those other celebrities."
Mom: Yeah, like ZZ Top.
Me: Who wants to be like ZZ Top?

It's like Ron, my hair guy said today - "Your mom is funny."
