Subtle

Subtle like a baseball bat to the head.
Panel 1, me with my mom, and she’s showing me her phone and saying, “Look at this ring I found online!” Panel 2, she says, “Isn’t it pretty?” Panel 3, she says, “Mother’s Day is coming up…” Panel 4, she says, “Hint hint.” And I, annoyed, say, “I get it.”
I suppose I should be happy she’s giving me an idea when she usually doesn’t.

    Yes, that's extremely helpful. I sent my mother chocolate chip cookies (that arrived Thursday). Some years it's hard to figure out what to get her.

    At least you don't have to try to figure out a gift this way.
