Going For An Impulse Drive

(My husband is just shy of being a hardcore geek. I, on the other hand, will often passively watch a series and seem like I’m not interested, but absorb enough detail about a show/game/whatever to make any geeky significant other proud. I will, however, play the awkward geeky wife card just to be silly. I am starting the car and turning on the heating and adjusting settings before taking him to work, and he is already having a bad day.)

Me: *as I’m pressing the windshield defrost button* “Diverting power to forward shields.”

Husband: “…”

Me: “You know… because the icon looks like a shield?”
