How nerdy are your parents?

[Shorty]

My mom is not geeky or nerdy in any sense of either of the words. She was a pristine home-making, interior decorating, furniture re-upholstering wife who grew intensely irritated with her children if we spent longer than thirty minutes playing video games. She also wanted to take away all my Goosebumps books because she didn't like what they were about.

Your dad must be extremely attractive; I wonder how their marriage works out.

(Or their, you know, being together).

They've been divorced for twelve years.
