A variation on Lulz, (it itself a variation on lol) I believe to have been coined on iridethelines.com sometime in 2007. Used to express laughter, often at the misfortune of others.

1. A phrase used often in English youth culture as a generic comeback to an insult of any kind.
2. A response to a question of any sort, often not being in any way related to the person whom is asking's mother or even making any sort of sense, although it can sometimes be fitting and even insulting.
3. Used as part of a larger insult usually following the formula; "Your Mum's so 'x' she is 'y'." This form oftens plays to the target's mother's alledged promiscuity, weight, intellect, age, looks, wealth or background. This is the form of 'Your Mum' used by people with higher (if any) intellect.
Be aware that many people, even if meant as a joke, find the 'Your Mum' insult just that; insulting, even to the point of violence.
The 'Your Mum' insult may appear to be a recent phenomenon, but it has been used by even Shakespeare in his plays, as in Act I Scene 1 of 'Timon of Athens';
Painter: Y'are a dog.
Apemantus: Thy mother's of my generation. What's she, if I be a dog?
The 'Your Mum' insult was also uses in Act IV, Scene II of Titus Andronicus;
Demetrius: Villain, what hast thou done?
Aaron: That which thou canst not undo.
Chiron: Thou hast undone our mother.
Aaron: Villain, I have done thy mother.
Examples:
1. Person 1: You're gay.
Person 2: So's your mum.
2. Person 1: What did you do last night?
Person 2: Your mum.
or;
Person 1: What colour is your car?
Person 2: Your mum.
3. Your mum's so stupid, she climbed over a glass wall just to see what was on the other side.
or;
Your mum's so fat, when she went sunbathing GreenPeace showed up to try to tow her back into the sea.
