Yesterday, I was listening to This American Life online while working when Martha started yelling at me.
***
Martha: Hey, mutant!
Me: What?
Martha: Do you have any mail going out?
Me: No. What did you call me?
Martha: A mutant! You're like a mutant when you're listening to that stuff. You never respond to anything.
Me: Do you mean I'm mute? A mute person can't speak, that's different from a mutant.
Martha: Wait, what?
Me: A person who can't or doesn't speak is mute.
Martha: Right, you're a mutant.
Me: No, a mutant would be someone with a mutation... a change in their genetic code not inherited from the parents. It is not the same as being mute.
Martha: Whatever, you mutant.

I'm not sure why I bother.
