And if we stay off politics, they are nice people and I enjoy their company. We have plenty of discussions on other things.

My family is a different story. We can't have a discussion on anything that doesn't turn into a litany of Fox talking points. Even the weather isn't a safe topic, because I start hearing the climate-change denier shit. And apparently, Obama is responsible for everything bad -- even the traffic.
