“I… Mom, something’s wrong when I’m naked!” Jen said, stomping her foot in frustration as the words tumbled out of her mouth without her wanting them to. Her mother just stared at her in confusion and uncomfortable silence for a moment before she coughed and spoke.
“Well it’s a good thing you’re dressed then sweetie…?”
Jen huffed and squealed in frustration, what the hell was going on, she knew she’d been cursed somehow but there was a mental cloud fogging her mind as to how or when, it was infuriating.
“No, Mom, listen, I think I’ve been cursed so that I can only finish sentences that way when I’m naked” Jen insisted.

Jenny’s mother stopped and folded her arms, unaware that Jenny's words had formed a perverse curse of their own. She didn’t believe her daughter for one second, but she knew what would convince her…
“Fine, I’ll believe you Jennifer, and I’ll help you when you’re naked…”
“MOM?! When I’m naked?!” Jenny squealed in shock. Unaware that her words had had a very powerful effect in cursing her mother and now her mother was going to 'help' her, exactly in the way Jennifer had asked her to...
