its reverse nepotism.

Oh, you're no fun.  Now I have to wait around playing vidiot games until it's time to go over to campus for tutoring.

Speaking of which, who wants to hear a story?

I'm typing along, take a few minutes out to pet the cat, go back to typing, and my laptop "glitches" ... in this case, it shut down the current page and all my text was lost.  

Will remember the story I was going to relate.  Too pissed right now to start over.

I'm gutted that we've missed a story but frankly it serves you right for paying attention to the cat and not to us.

Who can pet a cat instead of telling us a story, hmm, who?

Well it depends if the cat gives you a choice.
