5. My aunt ALWAYS has the Hallmark channel on when I go visit her

Monday

I have no interest in watching those movies on my own, but when I'm sitting at her place (usually on the loveseat in front of the TV in a small apartment), I can't help but stare at the screen. The volume is usually down because my aunt and I are talking, but it's like I'm looking for the flaws in these "perfect" settings that they've created with actors like mannequins.

It's bizarre.
