Rate your most recent convo with a stranger

The increasing rustiness of social skills guarantees social retardation no matter who you are the more you isolate yourself from others.

I embarked on an adventure to the grocery store. I kept one eye closed to block the sun on the sunny side, played Frogger IRL, and did my best to maintain a wide presence with a straight back. Once I entered the store I equipped my darkest blackest diaper mask out of courtesy for my fellow citizens and began to browse their wares. All was peaceful until I chose my checkout of choice most effective at saving my time. The man in line in front of me spoke, and at first I tried to discourage the conversation by looking down and inspecting my box of lackluster biscuits guaranteed to call into question my economic prowess. He did not stop. I spoke back to him at first uncaring, but quickly realized that it would be socially retarded to not put effort into participating. I made sure to pay attention and nod my head as I do my part in the conversation while also not clearly understanding what this man is saying, much like how I coordinate team effort in multiplayer team-based games without any direct communication. I'm not even sure if he could understand what I was saying, my confidence hit by these cultish masks of the New World Order that muffle my personality. We both conferred to one another that we do not drink alcohol as the conversation piece was the broken wine bottle next to our feet. If a conversation is an exchange of more than four sentences then this was certainly my most recent. Was I ashamed? No. Was I placated by the sanity boost presented to me? Yes.

Can't remember the last time, I barely talk to people these days

Although normally I'm not bad at them. I've managed to get rid of my anxiety in 95% of situations, so even if I say something stupid I don't beat myself much for it, which is pretty cool.
