>>14482720So what I'm getting is that you believe its better not to have small talk to avoid the possibility of encountering fake people, when in fact at least half or more genuinely care about your response? Is your position that of cynicism, or that you believe small talk in general is redundant?
If your view is the latter, consider that perhaps you should loosen up. If its the former, then we just plainly disagree on how shit most people are. Lots of assholes out there, but that's why we developed nuance, body language reading, and "people reading" is generally regarded as a skill. It's better to talk to people and evaluate which ones suck than to talk to nobody ever. At least in my opinion
Also fuck jannies
