I have decided to try deliberately giving nonsense responses. Like when a nurse asks me a question that I can’t understand, I’ll respond “yes, George C. Scott did win an Oscar that year. I remember quite clearly!” Or “I think that was Willie Stargell but it might have been Roberto Clemente.” Or “Yes, I have two cats. Can’t you tell by the scars on my hands and forearms?”

I don’t think that is wise. It might make the speaker antagonistic or annoyed at you….maybe not their fault you didn’t understand first time around. Why get off to a bad start.
