The Topic: Meddling parents.

Brass
My parents have been trying to set me up with a girl — a girl who I find dull and tedious and whose company I generally try to avoid. They've even resorted to deception to get us in the same room at times. They've been trying to get us together for weeks now, and they seem to think I'm kidding when I tell them point-blank that I would like to AVOID this girl as much as possible.


Advice? Suggestions? Cruel mockery?

Mom
Oh Honey, we know you're just playing hard to get.
Dad
Take it from me, that girl is the best for you.
Dad
I know, you're balking at the concept of an "arranged marriage", but I felt the same way at your age.
Dad
But, after a few years, you'll get used to the idea of sharing a bedroom with another person.
Mom
But, it's not like you share the same bed or anything.
Dad
Oh, gross! Yeah, nothing like that here.
