Mom: Are you picketing? Phoebe: I'm advocating. Mom: For? Phoebe: New punctuation! Earlier I was texting Marigold about the tacos you made for dinner. And it was like, the tacos were okay, but not exclamation point level good. But just saying "we had tacos" with a period is so...meh. So I invented this. It shows my mild approval of your tacos. I could name it after you! Mom: "Mom" is a terrible name for punctuation.
