My partner has taught/trained me to ask "would you like to hear more?" before I info-dump on him.

Example: Me: "at work today I've been playing around with configuration settings for Primo VE, specifically the search scopes... Um... would you like to hear more?"

Response: "I'm glad you have an interesting problem at work and no, no thank you."

    Then she spent two hours talking about every single thing she experienced at work and her remarks on them...

    There was no "she" in my story.

    Edit: and we just had a test of the system. I got home bubbling about updating Anubis and the new config options, then asked "would you like to hear more?" and he was like "sounds like you had a good day, no thank you" then flopped face-first onto the couch.
