[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you have the classic asshole BMW driving chatty dad/mom with the fake smile, gripping the Starbucks cup for dear life who won't stop talking to even take a breath for the love of christ? Yeah. You cannot tune these people out. They bait you with endless questions about where you'll be 'summering' and what school will junior be attending next year. You want to kill them. You cannot redirect their conversation. They're narcissists. You have to buy a chair and a blanket and position yourself at a distance from them and cheer loudly and carry on with your life.

Yeah, I would watch the game and "chat" with them, but periodically answer the wrong question.

Where are you summering?
--yeah, I know.  The teen years are hard, aren't they?  And we have to decide whether to enroll John Jr in driving school this summer.
What?  Didn't you hear me?  I asked where are you summering?
--Oh, sorry.  I was watching Jane's play at second base.  Just a second.  "Good catch, Jane!"

After a while, either they'll go into a monologue that you can tune out and just murmur "I know"  "Really?" etc or they'll get annoyed by you and go and annoy someone else.[/quote]
