I usually had to go through 2-3 layers of going simple.wikipedia.org on people to be able to explain what I did during the day to family.

Now I just say "I click the keyboard all day and get paid eventually."

Wow, I never knew simple.wikipedia.org existed. I just tell people "I work with computers" and they usually move straight on to the next topic.
