Quote from Future Ted in Purple Giraffe
Future Ted: [v.o.] Okay, where was I? Daughter: You were telling us how you met mom. Son: In excruciating detail. Future Ted: Right, so... Back in 2005 when I was twenty-seven, my two best friends got engaged. And it got me thinking, "Maybe I should get married." Then I saw... Robin. She was incredible. I just knew I had to meet her. That's where your Uncle Barney came in.
