Trumpeter Mom

Trumpeter Mom - A mother (parent) of a small child who praises that child in an unnecessarily public way in a thinly veiled attempt to signal her own virtue as a mother. This is usually done in a loud or “trumpeted” voice especially in close quarters, like an elevator or waiting room.

While I rode the elevator to the top floor of the bank building, I could not help over hear the Trumpeter Mom as she told her five year old son: “Johnny, I am so proud of you for donating all your toys to the orphanage while you were visiting those Tibetan Monks while on your recess. You are far less selfish than your friends who simply play at recess.

Lyrifog

When someone sings a well known song but sings all or part of the lyrics wrong and yet are convinced THEY are singing the "right" lyrics.

Example: They sing "mid evil woman" when singing the song "Evil Woman" by ELO.

I was driving along with this chick was suffering from Lyrifog. She sang the wrong lyrics to ELO's "Evil Woman" singing instead "MID Evil Woman". I corrected her but she insisted that I had it wrong not her.
