I recently discovered that someone who never seemed to like me very much felt this way because (among other things) he thought I was a know-it-all.
I mentioned this to Elysha. “So this guy apparently thinks I’m a know-it-all,” I said.
“Well…” she said, trailing off.
“What? You think I’m a know-it-all, too?” I asked.
“You do know a lot, honey,” she said.
“Yeah,” I said. “But does that make me a know-it-all?”
“You do know a lot,” she repeated.
Notice the way she turned something that would normally be considered a compliment into something highly questionable and probably insulting?
This is a perfect example of an experienced wife in action.
