You might be confused by the "Meeple" and "Mupple" exchange at the beginning, but a quick trip to Urban Dictionary clears things up.

Meeple:
A generic term for little wooden figures used in german board gaming.

Mupple: A mixed-race heterosexual couple, of which one partner, generally the male, is of Caucasian appearance and the other partner, generally the female, is of South-East Asian appearance.

That makes sense! So the son/daughter was pontificating to "Dad" about the apparent lack of control any of us has over our lives, like pawns on a chessboard or meeples in a German board game, and "Dad" responded that by pairing ourselves into loving and supportive but unconventional relationships (such as, just for example, a mupple), we can often soothe the pang of life's persistent existential uncertainty. This segues perfectly into the son/daughter discussing his/her preferences when finding suitable partners.

Parents have sex too.

Takes one to be spawned by one.

I'm l33ting so hard right now.

Almost correctly. It's the "Are you f**king kidding me" face and not the "I'm SERIOUS and I MEAN it" face. Still, close enough. 8/10.

Money quote from the main article: "Children and adults are sexual beings; we've known this for at least 100 years." Gee, I don't know HOW we managed the whole baby-making business before then!

Anyway, P911, PIR, GYPO and GNOC.

This sums up Christmas morning for at least 30 people.

It'll save him a rightfully earned lecture on how a grown man doesn't know how to boil corn.

It'd be worth it to move back in with the parents, just to have glow stars on my peeling ceiling again.
