The problem is when they react poorly to our contribution, we internalize the error as our own flaw rather than recognizing we picked shitty people to socialize with.

People have to allow you into the conversation. Most aren’t listening in the first place and are just waiting to speak themselves, often before the first person finishes. They stand in circles tighter than Satan’s butthole. The music is deafening, so if you can’t stand next to the talker, you’ve got no chance. I don’t know why I’m here; I know nobody and nobody seems to want me here.
