I am a faithful listener of the radio program This American Life. Each week the show offers an entertaining and in-depth look into various themes ranging from the financial crisis, to children switched at birth, to the perfect break-up song. This week, the program took on an invariably popular topic of discussion: cheating.

This dialogue — well, OK, monologue — may sound uncomfortably familiar to some of you. If you haven't had this conversation in real life, then I'm sure you've heard it at the movies. My favorite part is when the significantly smaller "boy" cat gets in one pathetic word: "Right."
