"Mom? Wobuffett is a stale Pokemon. This is what he says, 'Wah-bah-fett!" And he has no brains. And if someone tries to do magna-punch on him they end up punching themself."

"Come on, Mom. Wobuffett is part of Pokemon. It's a video and card game."
"I'm not familiar."
"Wah-bah-fett! Wah-bah-fett! Wah-bah-fett!"
"That explains it."
"It does."

Just smile and nod. That's what I do when people talk about TV shows I've never seen.
