Your mom says you're stiff. Just stretch your neck and you'll be golden.

Chloe Smith

I'm literally drowning in finals, dad. A little stretching won't fix this.

💡

David attempts to be helpful with a simplistic solution and uses the idiom 'be golden' (meaning to be in a great situation/perfect), while Chloe responds with the hyperbolic 'drowning in finals' to express her stress, highlighting their generational gap in coping mechanisms.
