Him: I saw the funniest thing today. This older woman was reading One Hundred Years of Solitude at the airport. It's the Oprah pick of the month, I guess. Anyway, so that's the reason she was reading it. Just because Oprah said to read it! You should have seen her face. It was all (makes confused face).
Me: You should give people credit for attempting difficult books, no matter what got them to try. Say what you want about Oprah, but she's getting people to read, and that's a good thing.
Him: People follow her like sheep. It's so stupid!
Me: Did you read One Hundred Years of Solitude?
Him: Yes, I did.
Him: OK, No I didn't.
Me: You do not read enough to make fun of someone for reading a book.
Him: Point taken. (Leaves the room to go to bed and sulk.)
