I'm amazed by is how the some people (mainly young people) stare blankly when someone speaks to them or asks them to hit a button on the elevator. They don't even nod, they just stare. My younger sister is one of those people and I don't understand it. <br /><br />Perhaps at some point in society we're just going to communicate via grunts. The art of conversation is truly dying.msmariahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15486729990673366769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5205145949644640065.post-29576320230236433352011-08-06T16:22:45.325-07:002011-08-06T16:22:45.325-07:00Now that's a blog post =P , but I kinda gotta ...Now that's a blog post =P , but I kinda gotta disagree with not talking to strangers, so long as they look sane and decent that is. but anyways I'll defiantly check out these posts moreMike Etchinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16517966474416992274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5205145949644640065.post-9514687999293310872011-08-06T10:20:08.394-07:002011-08-06T10:20:08.394-07:00Talking to strangers is, easily, my most favorite ...Talking to strangers is, easily, my most favorite thing to do whilst drunk.
