Week 3 of 'Law and Order: Criminal Intent'

Me: Oh look the woman detective's finally got some lines.

Mr A. [patient]: She's always had lines, you just don't hear them because you're always complaining she has no lines.

[watching of show]

Me: I really like this programme, but it does worry me that the criminals are always women.

[more watching of show]

Me: Except tonight.

[even more watching of show]

Me: OK, well, if the criminal is not a woman, then it's somebody insane. This show is prejudiced against women and the insane.

Mr A.: The leads are a woman and someone insane.

Me: That's even worse. That means that they're contributing to upholding the hegemony that marginalizes them.

[Mr A. gives chilly stare]

Me: I'm very sad about the Big Damn Movie.

[Stare gets chillier]

Me [pointing across room]: Look! Penguins!
