Millennials should enjoy this one.

A teenage girl going by the Twitter handle @mirandaasantos celebrated Throwback Thursday late last month by sharing a photo of a text exchange between her mother, Susan, and an insurance agent after a car accident.

Susan, hoping to report the claim and expedite the sometimes lengthy process, texted her agent about the accident. The agent responded by asking for side, rear and front views.

Susan delivered.




“That felt weird :),” Susan texted her agent following the photo. “Thanks Eva hope those work?!!”

It turns out that just getting the angles right – and not the subject matter – didn’t cut it.

“Susan you look very nice,” Eva the agent responded, “but I need pictures of your vehicle.”

Oh, mom. At least you looked better than your car probably did.
