Something to Ponder On

Let's play have you ever...

1. Mumbled over your words?

2. Spoke like this: "futter bushroom; oh wait, butter mushroom!"

3. Found long awkward silences painful?



4. Not know how to end a conversation?

5. Feel uncomfortable when you see someone you don't really like?

6. Feel like literally everyone is out to get you?

7. Blanked out on what to say?

8. ..or not know how to respond because you were zoning out?

9. Told yourself to be more outgoing?

10. Been told to be more outgoing?

11. Scared to speak up?

12. Been ridiculed because of what you said/how you talk so speaking up now conjures up "traumatic" experiences?

13. Think of the perfect comeback/response/rebuttal 3 years after you had that conversation?

14. Have a cooler, more sophisticated, more outgoing version of yourself in your head?

15. Label yourself as socially awkward?

16. Diagnose yourself with social anxiety?

17. Love being alone?

18. Feel like you need to work on your laugh?

19. Give a small awkward laugh because you don't know how to respond which is a virtual reality 98% of the time?

20. Feel immensely proud of yourself when you make other people laugh?

21. Don't know how to talk like a proper grown up?

22. Interject your expressions with your go-to lines/words/phrases? Chos, LOL, rrr, I know right?, haha yuh, nyaaah

23. Feel like literally everyone seems to know how to handle themselves in social situations except you?

Yeah... Let that marinate for a while. You know what it is.
