Family don't tend to do it very much. My aunt does occasionally but only because she's slightly deaf. My brother does, when he's in "dinosaur mode". Doesn't wait for you to finish comment/sentence before butting in with his derogatory comments. I used to let him have his moment, not any more

I admire that you can do that, ‘bookmark’ a point in a conversation and get back to it - I find it very hard not to get de-railed when someone interrupts like this and I genuinely struggle to remember where we were before.
