Mitochondrial DNA and Generational Stages, You Know, Pillow Talk??

I have been married to Billy for over 13 years now, together for 6 before that.  He is really my other half, I think we balance each other as well as we possibly could.  I talk too much, he is really quiet unless the topic is necessary.  I laugh out loud. And often.  When I say "wasn't that funny?!"  He always responds with, "yeah, I'm laughing inside."  (who does that?!)  But our conversations at night always reaffirm this ying and yang thing we have...

Me: So why are some guys so hairy?

Billy: (long pause) Well, you know that everyone is in a different generational phase, right?

Me: Maybe it's for warmth...

Billy: See, every one is different.  I'm in a different generation than you are....

Me: (cutting in) Oh Lord, this isn't going to turn into some physics conversation about black holes or the "Singularity", is it?  SNORE... (umm, Google it if you need to, I couldn't really explain it here)

Billy:  The Singularity?!?! No, this is nothing like that.  Please, I was thinking about Mitochondrial DNA."

Me:  Of course you were...  I was afraid we were going to have to start talking about that.  That's worse than that movie you made me watch about the black hole...

Billy: "Dark Matter".... I still say that scene with the Asian kid selling make up to Meryl Streep should have been award winning.  It's as good as "I drink your milkshake".

Me:  Whatever... Nobody saw your stupid Dark Matter movie and the scene was not anything like "I drink your milkshake." Cannot compare...

Billy:  You didn't even see the milkshake scene, you fell asleep.

Me:  I saw it, they replayed it on tv a lot during award season.


See, that's the ying and the yang......
