Kids like you never understand how hard it is for adults to earn money! If you're this wasteful now, what man can afford to marry you in the future?"

He looks completely justified when he says, "I'm dating your mom. Every cent you spend counts as our future marital assets!" I am shocked. Isn't Mom a lesbian? Since when did she start liking men?
