I work with all extroverts...shyt is like a nightmare everyday brehs :to:

Not being a drinker and having to go to happy hours and work parties :sadcam:


Sometimes I think being an introvert is a real disadvantage but other times shyt's cool. We're smarter


"wise men listen and laugh while fools talk"

Man, me too.....I be hating that shyt....I just can't laugh and say corny shyt without feeling like a complete dikkweed.

You know what though...(loosely quoting what someone said on this message board previously) I think it's this COUNTRY that has a problem...Like, they feel if you ain't all loud and "outgoing" and blablablah they think you have a problem...

Thing is, I'll speak to you if you speak to me, and I promise we can have a normal, decent convo. It's when you try to force shyt that aggravates me and makes me want to bludgeon you with the nearest foreign object,....

This whole post is the essence of my school days. I would take an f before I'd consider doing a presentation. Classes would split the percentage of the grade earned between the presentation and written paper so I'd do the project but when they call me up to present I tell them :nah:. Introductions: :huhldup:. Group projects: :merchant:.

I've done that before.

I was watching that Magic & Bird documentary and Larry used to do the exact same thing. :blessed:

Y'all do know introversion isn't the same thing as shyness, right? I might be an introvert, but my public speaking skills are :win:

Me too. I can do a speech in a classroom just fine....I don't really like it, but I can do it with no problem. :manny: However, I never have and hopefully never will do huge audiences/crowds and shyt....

I CANNOT STAND BEING CALLED SHY. Seriously, people can be telling me something, and I can just have a neutral expression then they wanna start with the awkward questions and shyt. I'm just standing there like :birdman: Then they wanna have convos about my quietness and shyness, I be like "Oh my God, can you please, please, PLEASE shut the fukk up..." A lot of people can't relate, but that shyt is so aggravating...

Then they wonder why nikkaz don't talk to they ass...
