There, see? That’s something you get caught doing.
Wild what people are willing to admit to, though… 0.0 hopefully joking
When I was a kid, I had a book called "Are You Normal?"
The premise of the book, at least as best as I can recall, was that the author had interviewed an extensive list of people about normally private and/or embarrassing things, such as bodily functions. They would then reveal within the book some of the statistics and you, the reader, would compare yourself to them to determine how "normal" you were.
I don't remember too much from the book, but I remember in the intro the author said something like "it amazed me how many people wouldn't open up to their wives, but would throw the bathroom door open when I asked about how they peed." (This is heavily paraphrased because I only remember the gist.)
Presumably the phenomenon you referenced here in your last line is something similar.
Well, it doesn’t matter if you’re judged by that random person with a typewriter you’ll never see again.
Being judged by the wife will ruin your life.
