Quote from Wilson in Pilot
Tim: Jill didn't get the job she wants. I tell her not to feel bad, she gets angry. Wilson: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Tim: All right, so then I tell her what she should do, she jumps all over me and then walks away. Wilson: Sounds like you were having an asymmetrical conversation. Tim: Asymmetrical. How do you spell that? Wilson: Let's just say "one-sided". You see, Tim, by nature men are problem solvers but Jill didn't want you to solve her problem. Tim: She didn't? Wilson: No, no, no. She just wanted you to listen while she shared her feelings. Tim: Just stand there and listen? Wouldn't that be like not doing anything? Wilson: Sometimes the best thing you can do, Tim, is nothing. Tim: Jill got mad at me because I didn't listen to her. Wilson: No. I think she got mad at you 'cause you blew up the damn dishwasher.
