Most places won't let you parlay the total and the side of the same game.

Almost all books allow you to do this. I know every once in a while some won't, but that is only when they are (almost obviously) correlated. But, even then, I cannot remember this happening anytime recently.

If you try to parlay a non-allowed game, are you locked out by the computer or does a manager just jump in and go, "Whoa, no way"?

It is stopped automatically from what I remember. The situation that Your Mom mentions is the most likely scenario. And they won't block all parlays on the game, just the correlated ones.
