Sort of like a politician?

Very Tru!
I have caught myself watching some good car show or race and the wife and kids come in to watch something else. I try to get them to sit and watch for a while, then catch myself explaining the significance of this car or that, double-overhead cams, SU carbs, the wrong tires etc. When I finish and look up, they are usually gone. They say if I didn't talk so much about the cars and the show, maybe they would hang around. Now, put on one of their shows like "Voice" or "American Idol" and a totally different story. I can't get a word in, I'm pretty clueless and bored anyways, and tend to retire to my garage / hobbit hole.
