There’s this:
```
People are always amazed by how much "free time" I have.
They're also amazed that I don't know who Ally McBeal is.
Frankly, I'm amazed that they can't make the connection."
-- Robert Wenzlaff

    He posted it quite a while ago: http://lesswrong.com/lw/n8/rationality_quotes_9/
    
    I was unable to track it any further—all the Google hits seem to trace back to this or the original posting.
