About This Quote

My first thought was that this was some sort of joke. It didn't seem like something anyone would actually say. But, if it isn't a joke, then what is it? I was thinking about what it could mean. For some reason, I had the image of a teenage girl shopping with her mother.

This doesn't make sense because, according to one of my friends who writes fanfics, girls are the only group that are still expected to do most of the shopping for their families. So why would a girl want to shop? And why would she want to shop with her mother? And how does this tie into adolescent nirvana?
