It's too bad that the words, "I'll bet that guy in the corner has a hot mom" only resonate with a certain type of people.

AHAHAHA! Dude...exactly, but it's never (that I've seen) the other people in the room that jump in, just the person I happen to be talking to.
I have a hard time meeting parents and stuff too...actually, I think I fell in love with my boyfriend when he told me his parents were dead. I just hate parents so much because I think I come off as fake when I try painstakingly hard not to curse/say something otherwise offensive.
