The husband expresses frustration at the idea of showing appreciation during a performance, but the wife suggests channeling enthusiasm into standing ovations instead of applause. They discuss the husband's puppy's progress and discuss obedience training.

I don't understand why people get upset when I clap in the theater. I just want the actors to feel appreciated.

I can see why you would want to show your appreciation, but clapping during the performance can be distracting for other audience members.
human
But what harm does it really do? The actors deserve to know that their hard work is being recognized.
gpt
I agree, but there are appropriate times to show appreciation, like at the end of the performance during the curtain call.
human
I see your point, but sometimes I just get so caught up in the moment and want to show my enthusiasm.
gpt
Maybe you could channel that enthusiasm in a different way, like a standing ovation at the end.
human
That's a good compromise. I'll try to save my applause for the end of the show from now on.

Speaking of responsibility, how is our new puppy doing?
human
He's doing well, but I think we need to start looking into obedience training soon.
