Yes, my name is Charlie.
I did that, it works! ”They” can no longer track my movements based on the GPS chips in my tires…my car is on blocks in the driveway.
Ruh roh...I'll see that and raise you one.

Damn it! Total whiff. Again. Am I deficient in my pop culture knowledge?

Exactly!The mother is exemplifying exposition, which as I understand it, is the practice of having characters explain things to the readers of a fictional composition.
Exactly!
Exposition is providing the background and setting of the characters, in this case with a bit of foreshadowing. Clearly eluding to a catastrophic event that is going to occur where the family becomes relevant.
No pop culture knowledge needed.
Sorry it didn't hit home with the writers here!
Ooohhh-kaaay. Well, glad to have that cleared up.The mother is exemplifying exposition, which as I understand it, is the practice of having characters explain things to the readers of a fictional composition.

Some people appreciate irony more than others.Ooohhh-kaaay. Well, glad to have that cleared up.
Ha, Ha, Ha yes, that is a rip snorter of a joke. have to show that one to the guys at work.
My wife and I were at a married couples counseling meeting today.
The speaker was asking the audience random questions.
Then he called on me and said, "Sir, do you know what your wife's favorite flower is?"
Feeling kind of singled out, I turned to my wife and said, "It's self-rising, isn't it?"
Then everyone burst out laughing, and that's how the fight started.
There's no law that says everyone has to find the same things amusing.
