Kabitzing
the act of pretending to listen to your parents chat about school like it's the most important thing ever, while secretly wanting to punch them.
I sat there and smiled while my dad said I need to get better grades. I want to punch him.
My mom’s friend asked me about my science project. I said it was okay and now I have to explain it for 10 minutes.
I'm here to eat pizza, not listen to my parents talk about my school life like it's a big deal.
