"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Huh. Actually the small tag is making those quotes display smaller on my monitor, though the distinction isn't as clear as using the greater than carat (or indented like same).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Small works here fine.

Interesting. I'm using IE 6 on XP Pro. I have the text size set to "smaller" under view. You'd think that any t small text would appear smaller still, but it doesn't. If I change text size to normal, then t small does indeed appear smaller than normal text.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I'll teach her how to set the VCR.
Sigh, I'd estimate I've instructed my mom and my aunt how to set the vcr a dozen times over the last dozen years.
As opposed to teaching them, which apparently I haven't done successfully.
They are both bright people, so I have to assume it's just not being reinforced, or else it's just not their "thing." Heck, they can set the clocks, so...no blinking 12:00.

Who? moi??
Write the instructions down, step by step. Then have them follow the steps while you are there. Be very simple in the wording. Sympathize a lot.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Now that I'm re-watching, I'm reading WAY too hard into everything.
Shannon (to Claire): Do you know what it is?
Claire: Not yet.
Me: Evil! EEEVILLL!!

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
How about this:
Claire: Did anybody hear that?
Me: (sarcastically) NO! They're all deaf! (to self) What a blonde.
eta: I'm not saying that blonde people are dumb, but this falls into "blonde joke" territory.

I had asked a question upthread that I just got answered...
