Okay, Zak, let's see if we can make it simpler for you: When Iris says she's happy the way things are, she means that she feels a sense of joy and satisfaction with her present situation. She is implying that to make any changes to her current circumstances would diminish her level of personal satisfaction; and, in fact, even this discussion reduces her optimism about the future of your relationship. Did that help you find clarity?

"Let's keep things they way they are. Just think of me like I'm your former babysitter, Nan, who makes you white rice and gravy, just the way you like it. Isn't this wonderful?"

Mary Worth 4051

Zak, you idiot. It's Iris who is just fooling around with her boy toy. She never expected you to actually want to make a commitment!

"Your son can be my best man. Since Tommy and I are the same age, everyone will think we are friends."

Clearly, a marriage proposal is due. But until Zak actually takes a bite of Iris's allegedly-great white rice with hamburger gravy, I'm not sure they are ready for a real commitment.

Just in case anyone forgot, Zak is loaded. By the way.

"That's funny. I used to babysit a boy who called me Nan."

Be careful what you wish for; you might get white rice with hamburger gravy. Or Iris and Zak.

Everyone knows somebody like that. And they're always the worst person to have around.

Oh, Jeff. Mary Worth has NEVER negated the importance of what she does. The thought never even crossed her mind! Don't make me laugh.
