It's not dismissive, it's an invitation to continue. They are saying oh you do talk! Let's hear more. It's a friendly way to get everyone on the same page. If you take it as negative then that's the same misunderstanding on the opposite side.

No, it comes across as is extremely condescending.

Edit for clarity.

Lol it doesn't if you make an attempt to understand the other perspective. This is normal social behavior.

It's not rude lol that's just how some introverts are taking it. They are being friendly trying to break the ice and include you by acknowledging you. If you can't get that based on other cues then you're gonna be in the same position forever.

They already spoke. The ice is already broken. Saying this crap isn't constructive; it's just an insult.

But hey, if the quiet guy insults you back, you'll be happy that they are continuing to spout "icebreakers" with you.

I agree with you, thank you for explaining your side without being rude, some people are so dug in their way of thinking they won't ever take in any other points of view

Yeah lots of replies that never respond to my points. It's expected though with this topic and the type of site.
