This has a lot less to do with introversion than it does with social anxiety

Ain’t nobody need to buy a poop knife when you can walk outside and get yourself a poop stick that does the same thing

Oh shit, sorry, didn’t realize y’all’d be so susceptible to chicken pox

I mean, this is a total generalization. I’m ADHD AF and I love small talk. I’m very earnestly never “testing” people, either.

I’m going to check that out. Thanks!

This was a joke that (apparently) no one got about AI chatbots being shoehorned into products. I woke up to a bunch of downvotes, but I thought it was funny

I gladly subscribed to Spotify when it debuted in the US, but several years later realized it was really hard to discover new music on it. I would play 4 radio stations based off 4 different artists and get almost the exact same playlists, with nothing but songs that had hit the top 40. I went back to Pandora years ago and still love it. Pandora’s radio function is amazing, you can build stations based off blends of multiple artists and pick if you want to hear deep cuts, laid back songs, high energy songs, etc

During my undergrad I worked at a bio lab with a bunch of doctoral students, and only a small fraction of them had a master’s degree. A master’s degree isn’t required to enter a PhD program, and it isn’t useful unless it helps you achieve a specific career

This happened during his first term, dude was prob 6 years younger. Remember “Person. Man. Woman. Camera. TV.?” He was bragging about taking a MOCA lmao. Jokes on him, when asked to name 5 objects, he could only come up with things directly in his field of vision and demonstrated for the world that he might lack object permanence

Uh…ok?

Your comment assumes I do not appreciate the data produced by this study, which is false.

It was actually your comment that gave this impression…
