lol dunno if there is a post on this already, don't think so, apologies if there is. Just for a laugh though, what would you normally do if someone talked on and on constantly about the same thing and you wanted them to stop?
although I would normally imagine in my head about somehow physically hurting them in order to stop them rabbling, I normally would actually look around to see if any of my friends could be my victim and place them in my spot, like "hey Roy...come over her and meet...." iheeheehehehe!!!Sweeeeeet!!! What would you do? |

it differs depending on people with me too, when my boyfriend talks about gambling statistics, his experiences and how to play in a certain method so you win, i change the subject because i don't know what the hell he's talking about and i don't want out time together to be wasted on crap we both don't enjoy.
but with other people that i don't know i nod along because i don't know what to say...like this one girl who kept telling me about the history of buddhism or something...i kept looking around half listening, i was like  . i did ask questions on what little i sort of understood so i didn't completely come off as rude. |
