To add to your pedestrian list of terminology to flaunt at parties, I’d like to contribute:
1) Describing any of your troubles as “woefully esoteric” and
2) chiming into any social debate with “Don’t you think your stance/viewpoint/remark is a tad reductionist?”
They just want Todd to evaluate the relationship seriously since it’s been a couple of years now-classic reverse psychology parent move. He doesn’t own a lightweight jacket to wear to dinner with his parents and long-term girlfriend? They know he’s not ready.
