The joke is Telecom being technical.

Oooh, slam-o!

My husband's a programmer, he is the first person I've ever asked to "dumb it down for me"!

[–]MapleAdams[S] 1 point2 points ago

Did he say "it's really all just a bunch of 0's and 1's"?

[–]chalklady0 2 points3 points ago

No. He knows I'm familiar with binary, he actually explains. I'm not married to Bender.

I feel the same about my music school student boyfriend. I can read music and play several instruments, but when he starts talking theory and root seventh minor chords and other such.... I just start 'mhm'-ing a lot.

[–]catsfive -1 points0 points ago

This teaches him that seventh minor chords is a form of foreplay. Admit it. You're sore when you wake up.

I could watch this gif all day.

This is all my friends when I start talking cars. They've actually learned to just say "OH MY GOD. NO ONE CARES" as soon as they hear me start to talk about suspension tuning or exhaust pressure waves or whatever.

[–]safetyseal 1 point2 points ago

So you're furry and adorable? :D

[–]flukz 1 point2 points ago

Same problem, only I get asked... Now I just say "you don't really want to know and you wouldn't understand it anyway."
