What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Great. According to my sister, now my mom is freaking out and crying wondering where she went wrong with me; apparently she is taking my behavior to mean I don't want to get married and I'm only being difficult to avoid getting married. Which is partly true, as I have told her three million times I don't really feel like I'm ready to be married right this instant but fine I will talk to these girls and see what happens, so I don't know why she thinks this is something new. Plus, some of her friends' kids are getting married, and I'm not, so she is clearly a failure as a mother. After she hung up with me, she started crying and now's she praying/crying.

I swear, if I'm not married within the next few months, she's going to die of stress and it will be my fault.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Because not being married is possibly the worst thing in the world.

You know, P-C, even with toddlers we know that crying and making a fuss because you don't get want gets you a timeout.

Don't play along with your mother's histrionics. All she's going to get is a sinus headache. (And deservedly.)

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

P-C, I have to side with Hec here. You know perfectly well that your mother is not going to die if you don't get married this year. Or even next year. She knows it too.

Let her have her cry, but don't mistake it for anything more than it really is.

I hate hurting people, even when I don't mean to.

P-C, I agree with Hec and Burrell.

Welcome to being a grown-up. I'm serious. I hate hurting people, especially when I don't mean to. But IT HAPPENS. And your mother is, in all honesty, throwing a tantrum to control you. So yeah, I agree with Hec and Burrell.

Our wings are not tired.

Sunil, I sit on the don't give in to emotional blackmail bench with the rest of the crowd. It is much better for your mother to have a good cry than for you to have a bad marriage.

I have unkind things to say about your mother.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yeah, but you don't want to marry me. Well, Trudy might, for the lulz.

I say present this as an option for your mom. That'll put the marzipan in her pie plate, bingo!
