What is your quirky humor which goes over another person's head.

If anyone asks me what are you wearing 👀
I usually respond with, "Leaves, banana leaves/plantain leaves" 🤣😂🤣

26 M, living with parents. Does anyone else have an overly intense mom or dad? How do you manage?
Whenever I want to travel my mom wants to tag along and if I hint that I want to go alone or with GF she throws shade and comments that make me feel bad for not wanting to take her. There are other things like 1k questions when I go out, talking bad about any girl I am dating, constant nagging, etc.

I matched with a guy last week on an app and we chatted about food and him being new to the city. We decided to meet up the following weekend on Sunday after I confirmed the restaurant last week on Thursday. He gave me his number but I guess I prefer messaging on the app until we meet, so I didn’t text him. I really don’t feel up for going on the date since we barely chatted. I wish he messaged me leading up to the date. Is it okay for me to cancel? What should I tell him?
