On behalf of all of those confused friends and family members out there, sorry! It's not our fault we just don't GET it!
But my boyfriend also comes to me with questions like, "what is this sticking out thing on my rib? is it part of my bone? what are bones made of anyway? so how did that evolve?...... etc..........." I figure answering and laughing at his questions is a good repayment for him answering and laughing at mine about computers.
