re: etiquette, y'all ever met a cranky old person who gets mad if you respond to "thank you" with "no problem" cuz I have and it was really funny

i worked for an italian guy like that, which is hilarious given how many romance languages use a more or less direct translation of "no problem" for thank you

thanking people in languages that you suspect they don't speak is a powerful technique or could backfire completely

I hate that fuckin neurotypical script bullshit. it took me quite a long time before I understood that it was a nicety and people weren’t expecting a real response. it just feels wrong to ask a question or be asked a question and not respond

yeah in that instance I meant the ‘how are you’ non-question, but there are many instances where people default to a script and then get mad at you if you deviate from whatever script they’re expecting, and I am not always aware of there even being a script

if i'm too ornery to just throw out a "fine and you?" i usually try to defuse a "how are you?" with "do you want an honest answer?" most of the time people will just laugh, say "fair enough" and move on. sometimes they will say "i guess not" and sometimes they will say "yes of course" to which i lie about being fine

Dr. Kelso: Well, sweetheart, you're here early. Elliot: Yeah, well, you know I didn't have any plans last night, so I went to bed at eight and then I woke up at four. And then I realized that the sunrise just looks beautiful through the trees, and that my neighbor gets his paper in the nude... and that he needs to lose like 900 pounds. Dr. Kelso: In the future, the appropriate response is, "Yes, I am here early" - it's called 'small talk', not 'my depressing life in thirty seconds'. Elliot: I am not depressed, sir. In fact, nothing is gonna get me down today!

All are dead due to “low usage.”
