Incessant talking....

[Jakashh]

Unfortunately, not much makes her uncomfortable.

Start talking about the 11 cysts that spawned on your crotch area overnight

Print and frame this, then point at it...pointedly?

Damned whingers.

I typically just stop listening. You do t have to say anything, she'll probably lose interest after you don't answer or notice her for a while.

Can be a risky technique to use with a wife.

You did say it's a woman, good luck with that.

Agreed, except I would just keep pointing out the rules.
It's one thing to carry on a conversation, it's a whole other thing to be held hostage, lol.

Ha!
That was from the previous episode, wasn't it, lol....

Um, that wouldn't look to good for my GF either, lol.
Besides, she would probably ask if she could see one.

As Younggun suggests, selective hearing. That worked on my ex-wife, of course she is now my ex.

How does that help?
I've still got the TV paused, so as not to be rude, and she's all we can hear.

I missed this.
She doesn't give an opportunity for a response, nor need one.
As I stated, it's not a conversation, it is totally just her talking.

Keep increasing the volume of the TV. Or put on headphones. Hand her a dollar and ask her to tell it to a parking meter. Eventually you'll get your point across.

LOL

This is the ultimate way, just crank up the surround sound.
Except it would be the ultimate in rudeness.

2 hours nonstop talking? And that isn't rude?

Ask her to explain that last credit card bill.

Of course it is. She has no clue.
She even walked in to the house that night complaining about how a woman had her stopped her, and wouldn't stop talking.

About 10 minutes in to the first hour, I stopped her and asked her to explain to me why she was so mad when she first walked in to the house.

I was trying to give her a hint.

She told me again about the woman who would not stop talking.
Never caught on, lol.

 

[zincwarrior]

Well, then I couldn't hear the TV, which is the problem in the first place.
She causes me to pause it.

Alternatively, Dad would put on a headset connected to the TV.

Some people you just need to spell it out.

Pardon my ignorance, but what does this mean?

I can talk about all the finer details of things found on these sites for a LONG time. Most people can't stand more than about 2 minutes worth.

That sucks Cam. I feel for you but my politeness ends when my ears are officially getting raped.

I usually walk away if possible.

Then start the TV back up and simply elect not to hear her.

Better yet, never pause the TV.


I can completely ignore hours of conversation.

 

[Dawico]

I am also curious if she tells people what a great listener you are.
