I came here for this.

I don't like Stephen Colbert as much as Stephen Colbert.

Indeed. I will judge the hell out of anyone who asks, "Who's Tom Petty?" Go do some research, children. Learn.

My mother and her mother before her and my grandmother before her were all "mum". I'm "Mum" to my children. Not English, but nor are we phonies. We are, however, Canadian so adjust expectations accordingly.
