Comedian Mary Beth Barone had the ideal solution for family curiosity about her date
Comedian Mary Beth Barone has a “nosey and caring” family, so when it became obvious that they were likely to find out about her going on a date, she decided to take some pre-emptive action. She told Mashable:
“I knew once I mentioned it to one person, everyone would have questions,” she said. “So instead of answering them all in a flurry, I decided I’m just gonna foresee the line of questioning.”
She shared her ingenious solution on Twitter.

It’s sort of disappointing to know the leaflet worked out better than the relationship.
