Quote from Jill in Rites & Wrongs of Passage
Jill: Thanks for making me look bad. Tim: What? Jill: "Your mother and I need to talk." That means, "My pal, the greatest dad on Earth, wants me to go to the truck rally, but Ilsa, the wicked she-mother, doesn't." You do this to me all the time. Tim: Oh, come on, Ilsa.
