Mommy sits on the couch, eagerly scrolling through her phone with a big smile on her face.
Mommy: Hey, honey! Look at these amazing thrift store tips I found online!
Daddy: Oh boy, what did the internet teach you this time?

Mommy: This lady says thrifting is the answer to income inequality and healthcare! Imagine that!
Daddy: And all this time, I thought it took policy changes.
Mommy emerges from the thrift store wearing a motley collection of clothes: a plaid skirt, polka dot blouse, and a bright yellow hat. Daddy has a bemused expression.
Mommy: Ta-da! What do you think of my revolutionary outfit?
Daddy: Well, it's... certainly something.

Mommy: Join the movement, darling! We're saving the world!
Daddy: More like saving us from fashion sense.
Mommy is at a thrift store, excitedly rummaging through a bin of clothes while Daddy looks on with skepticism.
Mommy: Look at all these treasures! We're going to change the world one outfit at a time!
Daddy: Sure, because nothing screams 'equality' like mismatched socks.
