Regardless of our career specializations and our interests, you have to know when to turn it off. I know which settings I can have certain discussions, ask probing questions, and challenge people when they say something that I know is incorrect based on research or something concrete. People say incorrect things all the time and, even when I pretend like I'm joking, challenging people everytime I can (which is all the time, usually) is being a pain in the ass.
If you had said "we're not really cousins, though," that would've been better than going on and on about something that you know she didn't really know about. Turn it off the next time you partake in a zoo tour.

My God, DSTCHAOS you do it all the time. As you mentioned you do it everytime you can. Well, in this case I did too. People had questions and so did I. At the end she asked does anyone have any questions, people had questions and so did I. The next time I partake in a zoo tour, if the tour guide opens it up for questions, no I'm not turning anything off. If I have questions, I'm going to ask, and if I feel he/she is wrong I'm going to challenge him/her. If that's being an ass, then...oh well.
