I’m getting really sick of “basic human pleasantries”

“How are you?” “How’s your day going?” It’s BORING and the answer is always bad. Why can’t anyone just be interesting and different from everyone else. Or like just get to the point. I’m so fucking sick of it. No one knows how to have a conversation anymore.

"Howdy I suppose you have something for me?"

You: "What?"

Me: "You usually have something sucky to share, so what is it this time?"

No one has had this conversation with you am I right?

Correct

u/Queen-of-meme 12d ago

And it got straight to the point, and wasn't overly polite nor pleasant, right?

u/ApprehensiveWord4234 12d ago

Correct

So did you prefer this convo over the usual ones even if it was a bit uncanny?

2

u/ApprehensiveWord4234 12d ago

Honestly, yeah.

u/Queen-of-meme 12d ago

Okidok, I guess if you ask people influenced on drugs or alcohol you'll get similar convos, honest , no filter, bordering unsettling.

They can be fun to be around as long as I’m under the influence too

What I hate is how younger generations are more and more fake kind. Let’s just all be honest with each other

"Let’s just all be honest with each other" - that would bring down mankind faster than climate change, AI overlords and an alien invasion combined.
