Customer: OSU better step it up!
Me: Yeah, I guess. I don't particularly care for college football. Customer: Well they're up by 10 right now. Me: Oh. Okay. That's cool. Customer: Yeah, but they should be crushing them. It's closer than it should be. Me: Alright, I guess. Again, I really don't follow college sports. Customer: Alabama won tonight, too. Me: Umm...neat? Maybe? I don't even know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Customer: Well if they lost that would have meant... Me: *interrupting* Look, I have no idea what you're talking about. You may as well be talking to a brick wall on this subject right now. I don't follow college sports. I don't know who's good or bad beyond Alabama is always good and OSU is usually overrated. So if you're looking for a deep dive into NCAA football you're talking to the wrong guy. Now if you want to talk about the NFL, I think the Browns and Texans tomorrow is gonna be a really good game. Customer: Oh...yeah, it should be a fun one tomorrow. Have a good night. Me: You too. Take care. And this is a pretty constant thing. Someone will mention something I have absolutely no knowledge of, and while I understand that they're just making small talk so I try to humor them, when I make it clear that I have NO UNDERSTANDING of what they're going on about it should be a pretty good sign that maybe a different subject is in order. And almost invariably they just keep rambling on and on about the same thing and I just stare at them with glazed over eyes waiting for the misery to end. :-/ --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules ...

Sports fans don't know how to hold a conversation about anything other than sportsball.

Maybe listen when people talk to you about such stuff and you can pick up knowledge for the next convo you have about that subject.
