4. ...unless you're playing free association thread.
then you talk about nothing but what pops in your head.

But it's still communicating.

So nah! :evilgrin:

6. Me too.
Not always, but frequently. People frequently assume I'm bitchy (I guess I look like I should be perpetually perky), but I'm not, just introverted usually in big groups.

8. While I started this thread
with a bit of copy cat... I am both extroverted and introverted I can DO a big crowd situation... I rarely seek them out. Not my preferred way of being. Don't really get into the small talk thing.

9. I can speak in front of a crowd.
(Or perform.) I just don't like to converse in them. I'm not sure if that makes sense, but hey, it's me. :)

11. Talking with people is dead time. Torture. It's stops the right brain
from being creative.

14. I get it...
the small talk is a pain - but (contradictory) small group or one on one conversations with folks one knows well are great. Contradictory part is how it is hard to get the to fun substantive conversations wihtout the initial getting to know you small talk series of conversations.

13. Hah! I seem to recall we've shared a verbosity award or two!
Edited on Tue Feb-01-05 10:34 PM by SOteric
And yet, this was the most amusing spawn of these threads to date.

17. Irony
is always amusing :D

Glad it was appreciated. Though, honestly, my words to Sarah Belle are true - there is a part of me that is very introverted... and another part extroverted... sort of situational introversion if that makes sense (welcome back verbosity - eh?)
