I have an ongoing....."argument" with a coworker of mine. She refuses to believe that I hate people (my own words)

I'm an ambivert. I have both introvert and extrovert social batteries that need to be charged. Usually, I'm more introverted, though.

I work as Event Staff, which is just a fancy way of saying unarmed security that won't attack unless you hit first. Also, the cops will side with us. It's happened before.

Anyway, I find some interactions with other humans amusing and tolerable. Mostly, though, I try to avoid human interaction as much as I can. The way the human mind works both fascinates and scares me. Why are people the way they are? Why do they act the way they do? At the end of the day, we all start the womb and we all end in the tomb.

To put it short, I like watching/studying people from afar, but I hate people. What's so hard to understand about that?

Anyway, Cowork J keeps trying to convince me, every time that this topic is brought up, that people aren't that bad and that I do actually like them, seeing as I've only ever worked customer service.

Yes. I'm good with people. 8/10 times I can de-escalate a situation before I need to call someone over. I have yet to have anyone actually square up on me (though I anxiously (in every sense of the word) await the day it happens).

Just because I'm good with people doesn't mean I like them.

If I could, I would switch out my charisma enhancer for a stealth enhancer. Unfortunately, when my character was created, I was given what I was given and I cannot change my enhancements and base stats. (No matter how hard I've tried.) If anything, my chosen hobbies and future (hopeful) profession only enhance the stats given to me.

The point is!

There is no point. I came here to complain, so that's all this is.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

If you ever feel like you don't contribute to fandom because you "only" comment—

A regular serial commenter just joined a fandom Discord server I'm on and people are coming out of the woodwork to thank her for her service to the fandom, expressing how much joy her comments on their works bring them.

Remember—they're never only comments.

Song: In Our Town

You can fight me on this, IDGAF, but "I'm not talking about killing Penguin, or Scarecrow, or Dent, I'm talking about him. Just him. And doing it because... because he took me away from you." is one of DC's most perfectly crafted short monologues ever. It sums up a whole character in a few, simple lines. It sums up Jason's motives, hopes, and pain.

Cassie: Problem, I can't tell if this food is over-sauced or undercooked.

Cissie: Solution, just pop it back in the oven for another 10 minutes. There's at least a 50% chance that'll fix it, right?

Tim: Result? Food has somehow become unpleasantly soggy and unpleasantly crunchy at the exact same time.

Kon: No better time than this to pull out my favorite word! Slunchy!

Anita: ...put it away.
