14. My wife gets it

She lets me babble away about all sorts of weird stuff like religious esoterica, computer systems and Jungian psychology, making prompting noises in the right places until I run out of gas.

A little while later I'll hear an outraged shriek from the living room followed by "will you PLEASE keep YOUR SHIT out of MY TV shows!!!", usually because somebody has started in about Jungian stuff during one of her crime shows.
