Nothing wrong with weird, though!

E) It's only weird if they talk back

It's not weird if it's one of those voice activated televisions, though.

Talking to the television is weird, but yelling at it is perfectly normal.

In both of those cases I'm using the other thing as a focus for expressing what I'm thinking. So neither of them is weird for me.

My dog talks back to me all the time.

Both weird, but not equally! (Talking to TV = more weird)

[nacht_musik]

the distribution there is curious; at the moment, 97% (38/39) of people who rate TV-talking as no weirder than pet-talking think it's about the same, but only 54% (38/70) of the people who rate pet-talking as no weirder than TV-talking think it's about the same.
