Exactly. If the phrases are memorable enough for her to repeat to her friends. She’ll probably repeat the same phrases one day to her kids . Teens have a sense of humor. Her friends are laughing because the phrases are quirky and not used in this generation. I don’t think the daughter is being mean spirited. My brothers and I also imitated my dad for laughs but it was in tribute to him /honoring his quirkiness and crazy personality
