I’ve been working on a similar device. I’m trying to develop a phone that will detect if the caller is crying. Teenage daughters may be the true mother of invention.
I have a couple of relatives like that. I was visiting my parents some years ago and against my desires, decided to have a small family gathering while I was there. One aunt, attempting to pry into my personal matters, just so she could have something to gossip about to others. She got mad when I choose not to play and tell her anything. She told me she had a right to know about the things she was asking about. I asked her why she had a right to know anything about me, that she was not giving me, nor had she ever given me money, I had been married over 30 years (at that point), was employed, etc. I never used any profanity or yelled, but I spoke forcefully and bluntly.
She got into a big fluff and apparently I was the jerk because she and her cohort of other relatives; who came to confront me thought I was unreasonable and rude. They were shocked at how rude I was when they showed up to demand I apologize. The second bout was not my finest moment by a long shot. Sigh.

Do we need a national visit your relative day? How meddlesome.

If you really have an Aunt Bev, and she reads this, I hope she has a better sense of humor than what’s pictured! Lol!

I wonder if this detector truly tests one’s meddle.

Aunty looks grim. She must have some serious meddling to do.

The Theory of Relativity states that time moves slower the longer the relatives are in your house.
