I had this recent exchange with my wife:

Wife: What is FreeBSD?

Me: It's Unix, an operating system, and it's awesome!

Wife: Oh OK. The only reason I asked is because I am finding these FreeBSD CDs around the house. FreeBSD 12.0, 13.3, 14.0.

Me: Yeah, I use the old versions as coasters for my tea mugs.

Wife: *pauses, laughs* I can see that.
