The dojo scene - aside from the "chattering monkeys" line - almost worked, because it seemed clear that Danny was repeating something that he'd heard, like this was a scene that was familiar from his own training so he thought he knew what the right response was. Due to his usual derpiness, he fails to understand

I had exactly the same impression when Carrie-Anne Moss first showed up. Like a sense of relief and "Finally there's a grown-up in the room"

She wasn't old enough to be Clayton's mom either.

Yeah, I have a signed copy. It's a fun read.

The problem is, young people keep turning into more old people.

People make points like this unironically without understanding that they're tautological.

Sure, if they're the worst people.
