Get the bensplaining mug.Bat goes on a rant about a topic unrelated to the current conversation. For example, if you are talking about a santa costume you want her to wear, she might go on a whole rant about how the color red promotes fertility.
Morty: "Hi Bat, are you gonna wear that beard for the santa costume?"
Bat: "Beards have long been associated with wisdom and intelligence, and many great thinkers throughout history have sported impressive facial hair. But did you know that beards may also be related to the space-time continuum? According to recent studies, the gravitational pull of a beard can actually warp the fabric of space and time, creating distortions in the nearby area. But enough about the scientific properties of beards - let's talk about how to cook soup. Soup is a versatile and satisfying meal that can be made with a wide variety of ingredients. To make soup, you will need a large pot and some basic cooking tools, such as a knife, cutting board, and stirring spoon. "
