It depends on why you’re in the games and what is going on with your life.

It can be an escape

It can be a break

It can be an outlet

It can just be for fun

It can be an exercise for the brain

But if it’s not providing any of that maybe that’s not what you need right now. It can also be a thing you need the escape/break from.

It’s just a thing for spending time without productivity so walking away from it isn’t a big drama. It’s going to be there later when you want it.

There’s other things that can provide a break or be fun for a while until you find the joy of the game again.

We’re not studying the breeding cycle of bats.

Anyone would say that about their own party not meeting every single wish within a 4 yr run.

It’s like hiring an accountant to undo what another accountant did within one season.

It’s weird how Americans don’t really understand their own system.

FEEEEMALE.

uh huh. That’s absolutely how women refer to themselves.

The new cars have been coming out with voice commands also so you don’t have to look at the screen while driving. They even have a tactile button for it on the wheel.

There’s more Africa than just South Africa.

It also exploits another person’s tragedy to make it about themselves taking away from the tragedy to focus on them. It’s narcissistic. And it’s reductive of tragedy. If speaking of third world problems should only be to focus on them. Not to take something from them for yourself.

“You should be grateful”

If it’s about trite platitudes and gratitude, go make a list. Find another way to teach that. When the topic is about someone else’s tragedy, get out of yourself and pay attention to those around you more.

“I have to remember so blessed when I think of someone else’s tragedy”

If you need a boost, Count your blessings against your own gamut of success. No need to compare and push yourself in front of someone else’s gamut all just to feel good about yourself.

‘It’s just a joke’ yup, that’s been said by sexual predators before too.

I don’t care about

I’ve told 3 coworkers already that I don’t talk to them

Ok so now you’re adding more information here. 3 people. this sounds less about just having some standards and more of a pattern emerging here.

What you are describing is more in line with how an APD thinks and behaves and not just a mere introvert trait.

The introversion trait isn’t attached to aversion. It’s based on personal need. No one trait needs to be rude and throw all politeness out the window. That’s bigger than a mere trait. People with introvert trait (without comorbidity) can actually talk to people and have a social ability even at work and they do not shy away from socializing full stop. They take periodic breaks based on need.

they feel offended

Again: that’s predictive.

Something doesn’t compute here. Unless you’ve misplaced yourself into a customer based industry and you’re just not a people person: Having a mere trait doesn’t end up with a collection of people aggressive at work. Nor would it be so attached to aversion and delivering hostile narrative on what other people must be thinking.

There is a proper way to break a conversation without having to be abrupt about not wanting to talk. Simply having a trait doesn’t rule over basic common decency.

You sound like you have something else going on aside from just the introvert trait.

Tbf computers also have a sleep mode.

Op didn’t say they were attracted to them. You know this.

You gave advice as a way to creep someone out as an alternative solution to being left alone. That is using sexual harassment as a mode of operation.

First off, I’m am not seeing really great communication skills coming from your end in your story here.

he keeps insinuating there is something wrong with me just because I don’t ask him about his private life

This is predicting. Or do you actually know he thinks this? The use of ‘insinuating’ sounds like you’re filling in a lot of blank space with your own narrative. Unless he came out and actually said this, private information isn’t necessarily an unspoken agreed upon trade. And if it was that would be a fault on his side.

And Just to get it out of the way: Introvert isn’t where you don’t want to socialize. It’s just a personality trait in how you recharge with or without socializing. Typical introvert would not avoid socializing altogether. They’d socialize and then excuse themselves for a time being. This is of course with healthy preferences of who to socialize with like any average person could have and that is perfectly fine but that isn’t a trait of what makes a person introvert or extrovert. That’s just having standards.

Either way, this just sounds like you have made a choice that this person isn’t for you and you have some unspoken boundaries and expect someone to know your boundaries without telling them. Even if you think you are being clear with social queues this might be a case of miscommunication of what a social queue is for you and what he reads communication(possible) . But I wouldn’t leave that to assumption.

People aren’t mind readers so of it is bothering you this much you could tell him like several others are suggesting.

after that if he doesn’t let up, see HR as that would be harassment at that point.

Paint for whatever reason needs this sliding scale of ‘archival’ which I don’t understand why student grade has to exist. it should all be archival and to be affordable. I suppose it comes down to pigment and binder but you could probably mix your own to maybe make it affordable.gum Arabic can be as cheap as less than 20$ a bottle

Back when the styles project was a site and rotten.com posted real police photos. I was very young and into horror movies but that was over the edge.

Where are these people and how do they get like this? This is ultra fucked up

Wow you’re so deeply obsessed with me. It would be Flattering in a way but creepily unhealthy how much this has encompassed your life for a week now.

Stop looking for a strawperson argument so you can ignore the rules of the road.

I can talk from experience as a car owner and as someone who should be interested enough to know if it’s viable enough for me.im allowed an opinion. My feedback for my needs is valid. Deal with it or cry more.

Stop looking for excuses to blow through stop signs. Rules of the road are for you too.

It helps it seem more creepy. Adds to the tongue that seems perpetually stuck out.
