I felt the same level of frustration/exasperation reading this as I do whenever I get stuck in a similar "this is the way it has always been" type conversation XD
they're topics I generally try to avoid unless I'm spinning stories about my head universe which somehow makes the idea more palatable/acceptable than if we're seriously discussing things
My overly terse "...yes and...?" is usually met iwth blank stares x_x
You know what @ryivhnn. Sometimes I wonder if you are only surrounded by people with a 20/20 eyesight or if all of them use contact lenses with a perfect prescription that never expires. :D
I'm too dumb to understand what you're driving at ^_^;
that might be too small x_x
Are you talking about the blank stares? I'm not sure either XD
It can be both options. Do you have your glasses on? :D
I think many people get so in the habit of automatic response, that they do not spend the time to think of alternative answers.
