But maybe you want to swallow hard and pay attention. Whenever they hit the stuff that makes your knee jerk up, just smooth it back down to the edge of your lap, and keep listening. For real, now. We're not teams at the Super Bowl. We are brothers and sisters, and by letting myself listen to these people I have found that their way of putting things is actually just different language than you or I would use for the exact same thing.

You WILL admit that, or I will break your knees.

Rip off the labels they've stamped on your brain and listen.
