I sure everyone can agree, we've all had that time once in our lives when we have to explain somthing from our Transformers obsession to a friend, family member, teacher, etc... Sometimes those explainations can be emberassing, akward, or just all around funny! I wanna hear some of your stories!
I remember trying to explain Insectecons to my mom in the middle of Party City. I ran down the transformers aisle to buy a hat that I had wanted for a while (it was a G1 bumblebee baseball cap) and my mom followed and asked if there were any other transformers besides ones that turn into cars and other vehicles. I had just gotten into watching G1, and had watched the episode when the Insectacons made their first appearence an hour earlier. I explained how they can transform into basically robot bugs and eat plants and such things. After 5 minutes of staring at me she says, "I can't believe you told me all that as if we were having a serious conversation." Then two other people in the aisle with us started cracking up! It was so emberassing!

Ooh, I remember when I had to explain (to the best of my abilities) how Transformers make sparklings (movieverse) to some of my friends. Thankfully, no one else was there to hear it. They all nearly peed themselves laughing. Slag was so cash.
This other time, I was getting a ride home with a friends and I explained to her the entire beginning of the Great War. (aka Megatron: Origins) After I was finished, she just kicked me out of the car and told me to never bring up the Decepticons again in her car.
There's this guy who has this red Trans-Am with a Shattered Glass Decepticon insignia on his car and I lol'd pretty hard. When asked why I lol'd, I had to explain Shattered Glass to my friends. (They're pretty knowledgeable with Transformers now.)
I had to explain spark twins and bonds to a different group of friends in the middle of lunch in the middle of the patio. Jesus Christ, that was hilarious. Then I got asked the infamous question of "are they gay?" Then I explained the technicalities and junk and... ick. Wasn't as embarassing as when my Tf pr0n got into the hands of my crush. She was... oddly cool with it.
I'm rambling, aren't I?

Most people don't let me go on Transformer rants. The closest I got was explaining to a family member while I squeal and/or giggle when I see a certain type of vehicle.
Of course, there was that fun time where I told my mom that 'No, "Till all are one" is NOT a Communist reference." I think she still doesn't believe me. sweatdrop

(Like the time I saw movieverse!jazz crusin' down the highway.)

Explaining my friends my Transformers obsession is easy, my mother hates Transformers and my dad just thinks I'm going through a phase, it's when my extended family catches me crooning over Transformers is where I get into trouble because it's like explaining it to a stranger and it makes me get very confrontational.
As for friends who don't like me squealing at transformers, if they can have their obsessions, you can have yours. What does it matter if it's a boy or a 'Bot?

xD Having to explain all of that to family can be fun though. My dad understands the whole robot and cars thing. He thinks robots are kinda cool and his main obsession is with cars. So I guess all of that works out. My mom on the other hand... Well... She just tunes me out when I try to explain why I like it. She just thinks, "Transforming robots. OK. Good robots vs. bad robots. Alright." I made them watch the first live-action film. They thought it was neat and that was all mom needed to figure it out. xD

My mom is the only one i have to really explain transformers to. my dad seems to get it, i mean he has not asked any questions about them. But anyone outside the "immediate" family don't know i like them well they do but i don't think they care. But my mom just asked which ones were the good guys and which ones where the bad guys, and we were watching the '07 movie so i could not say the ones with the red emblems on them r good and purple r bad (they were kinda small compared to TFA) so i just said that the ones with blue eyes were good and red eyes were bad.
