You casually ask to
these people "What s up?"
..and they rattle
away to glory non-stop, totally unrelated stuff that you wouldn't even be
remotely interested in.
You , just for the
sake of striking a conversation, try to talk about something funny.
..they pick the
chance and start either cribbing about something too trivial or try to express
their strong opinion on something just so irrelevant to the context.
You, run into some
common acquaintance or a friend, when with these people, and wave a hand,
..they start weaving
stories about this person, without paying any heed, giving you updates about
them, about how not-so-rosy is their relationship.
You are discussing
something very light over a cup of coffee,
..they start a topic
which will be totally unrelated to what is going on, the only reason for it
being that they want to just talk, and don’t care whether you listen or even if
you might be interested. You might visibly appear bored, sometimes
when in a group, you might have even stopped nodding and got on to do something
else, but they continue.
You give them an
opportunity to start talking.
..they just don't
stop.
They most often do
petty talks over irrelevant or trivial matters, or even if they discuss
something that might interest, you most of the time, even if you
support/counter their views, you prefer not to talk and just end up forcefully
listening. When with them, the otherwise very-talkative YOU remains shut, just nodding and grinning pretending to listen.
Sometimes, instead
of getting annoyed by these people, I feel pity for them. Is it that they are
so innocent not to realize that others are not interested in their jabbering
talk and yet continue or they know and
yet continue doing it?
