That really doesn't apply to my wife but describes my oldest son perfectly. Dude, you're literally talking over the part that's explaining what you're asking about.

It doesn't apply to my wife either, but my older son and daughter are horrible at this too. I've enacted the same strategy as the guy in the article though, I only watch movies I've either seen a hundred times or movies I don't care about when they're around.
 
I want to go back to bed, coffee not helping much.

I have this weird discoloration on my hand. Either I got up at night and in my sleep decided to stain some wood or I decided to butcher a chicken it appears. Maybe I need to check the house for some new woodwork or the fridge and freezer for fresh chicken. May be why I’m so tired also, had to catch a chicken.

Sat up and watched a movie with the oldest again last night. Enjoy having him home and with classes starting monday, trying to squeeze in extra time. He managed to follow up the disaster of bounty hunter with this masterpiece called Hot Rod. Made Bounty Hunter look good. Isla fisher could not even save it.

I've seen some pretty bad movies that were at least watchable for the eye candy. He must have outstanding taste in movies.
 
We can come up with a better plan than that.
Face tattoos.
Fake your own death like Juice World.
Say "I forgot that I have to attend jury duty."
Ask for asylum in Iran. They have delicious pistachios.
Enlist in the Marines.
Move to a different state.
Join a doomsday cult (this may not work).

If you still get called, answer all questions this way, "The recent alien abduction really diminished my memory and changed my opinion on most events."

My wife asleep during every movie. She likes to order movies and it kinda ticks me off. It’s only 5 bucks or so, but she only ever sees about 15 minutes and falls asleep. Her family’s hobby is napping. My youngest pounds the questions and I usually get irritated a third through and tell him if he just zips it and listens then he will hear the answer and not be 5 minutes behind all the time. He’s 12 so I’m hoping that it clears up.
I tend to be the one that falls asleep during movies. My wife tends to be on her phone.
 
For Reference on Pat's daughter. Pat had surgery and is out so Vanna is doing Pat's job and his daughter is filling in for Pat. Or at least was last night.

Training for the rematch against the champ? "If you can catch this thing, you can catch greased lighting."
 
Since ISU hooked me up with the textbook I selected for the course, I'm sitting here this morning connecting textbook pages to what I cover in our lecture that day in case people want to read the book they won't need.

I forgot how dull this part can be when you're not working out of a textbook.

Learned a tip this morning - a co-worker told me his mom used to put a square of unsweetened baking chocolate in her chili. She claimed it counteracted the acid in the tomatoes and kept heartburn at bay.

Since I'm making up a batch tonight, I'm going to give it a try.

I've heard about putting chocolate in chili but not for that reason. I've also heard that using coffee as your liquid as opposed to water or broth is supposed to give it a good flavor.

Or shut interest down for those vertically challenged... and horizontally gifted
I've used "vertically challenged" for years. The other is new to me. Personally, since I am now 2.5 inches shorter than I used to be, I refer to myself as "squished vertically" (which of course leads to your "horizontally gifted"). :D
