Overheard in the living room

Shorter Half: "Are you on the computer?"

Me: "Yup."

SH: "Can you check something for me?"

Me: "Depends. What do you need?"

SH: "Can you look up the date of the full moon for October 1986?
Me: "Sure." ::type, type, type, click.:: "It was the 17th. Why?"

SH: "I'm just fact checking."

Me: "You're reading science fiction* and you're FACT CHECKING? It's FICTION."

SH: "It's *fantasy*."

Me: "You're fact checking FANTASY?" (pause) "Was he right?"

SH: "Yup."
