"Miranda, I hate to say this, but you're almost 30 now. You're not in school, but you don't have a job, and there's no sign of a boyfriend.

Harold finally couldn't take it anymore. "Such nonsense... Mindy, I'm sorry. She just doesn't know when to stop. Please, don't take it personally.

Jenny wasn't about to let that go. “Harold, do I need to remind you who's the boss here? Am I not even allowed to speak now? Everything I said is true, so what are you apologizing for?"
