Twitch streamer left red-faced after accidentally cussing his mother

Apex Legends streamer Mitchell ‘Bird’ Guernica was left red-faced after swearing at a message in his Twitch chat calling him out on his foul language, only to realize it was his mother on a newly created account.

The Spacestation Gaming pro was grinding out matches in Apex Legends when he dropped some foul language, which most of his chat was used to. There was one new fan, however, that seemed to take offense to Guernica’s cussing.

“Hi Bird, Mother Hen here, watch our language,” the message from new user ‘winetime1965’ read, and as soon as the Twitch streamer read the request he fired back a retort that clearly showed he wasn’t going to be taking the advice: “The f***? F*** you.”

The gears seemed to begin whirring in the Spacestation Gaming star’s head as soon as he hit back, however, and after a moment of silence, as well as a proper read of the account’s name, the pieces of the puzzle fell into place.


“Oh wait, are you my mom?” he said as the realization dawned on him. “Wait, your name is winetime1965, wait I think that’s my mom. Are you actually my mom?”

The streamer sounded sheepish as he backtracked on his quick clap-back to the first message, trying to apologize for his hilarious mistake as his mother watched on in chat.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that. That actually makes sense, it sounds like a name you would make. Oh, f***, I’m sorry mother,” Bird said, sounding red-faced after cussing his own mom.


The Apex star quickly realised he should try to win back some favor with his mom, who he had just swore at multiple times, and dropped a parting message: “I love you! I love you, mom. How is your day going? I’m so sorry, s***. You’ve gotta warn me first!”

Luckily for Bird, his mom seemed happy enough with his apology, despite the swear words still layered throughout, and said that she still loved him.

As she left, she dropped one last message as only a mother can, encouraging the Apex pro to “go get some kills” as he continued his stream, an objective the Spacestation star promised he’d deliver on. It’s the least he could do considering he’d left her so offended.
