At the library today:
Librarian: (scanning a copy of The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford) I totally missed this when it was in theaters. I only remember hearing about it while it was being made, and then after it came out on DVD.
My Mom: Yeah, movies hardly spend any time in theaters anymore.
Me: Especially if they're a little bit arty.
Librarian: (stunned look at me)
(Look, I've gotten off a genius one or two in my time, but that was not one of them)
