Familiar

Sounds familiar! That sounds like this. Great job me.

Hym "Well, that sounds familiar. Who came up with that? Oh, I donno. Probably some kind of genius. Sounds brilliant to me. Like an amalgam of history's greatest minds."

familiarity filter

The "familiarity filter" refers to the phenomenon where children are more inclined to listen to strangers rather than their own parents, often due to filtering out familiar things that have always been there.

It's interesting how the familiarity filter works; my child pays more attention to advice from a teacher than from me, just because it feels new and different.

Betraying Familiarities

When you're a rich, British witch and someone disagrees with you.

*someone is a feminist*
Rich, British witch, "That person is... betraying familiarities!"

The Familiar Stranger

When you sit on a hard, wooden chair until your ass falls asleep so that your buddy can rail you from behind without it being gay.

Yo, Martin gave me The Familiar Stranger last night and was courteous enough to toss a dish rag underneath for the leaks. I like that guy!
