Intriguing

I come downstairs.

Dad: Do you understand American pop culture well?
A.: Sometimes.
Dad: Can you explain why, at the end of commercials for Cialis or Viagra, they always show people floating away in different vessels?
A.: No. I've got nothing. I've never seen a Cialis or Viagra commercial.

[Pause]

Mom: Unbelievable that you've gained weight. [Turns to dad] Hasn't she gained weight?
Dad: I don't think so. I think she looks athletic.
Mom: Her face is fine, but her stomach has gotten huge. She once looked like more of a girl.
Dad: And I once looked like more of a boy.
Mom: You always have to come to her defense! Look at her. [To me] Is it this new diet?
A.: I don't think anyone's ever gained weight by eating macrobiotically.
Mom: You have.
A.: I don't know. I don't weigh myself, and my clothes fit like they always have.
Mom: It's just intriguing.
