I envy you.

Or old people in the buses or even on the streets, they are the worst. So often try to get me into small talk, especially if I am with my kid (she's pretty adorable kid). I know that they are often lonely and seek contact with other people, so I try to be friendly, but I cannot stop wishing that they would just f*ck off. Cashiers at the stores, too, always want to go into some kind of small talk or throw some nonsense jokes.

That's one reason why I steer away from doing shopping in smaller shops around my neighbourhood and would rather go to a big mall with self-checkout stations. Even though I do not drive because of my epilepsy - I would rather walk 2km in one direction and then do the same, but with heavy bags in my hands, than suffer this nonsense of wasting time on meaningless interaction with people whose only role in my life is to provide me a service of putting groceries over a scanner.

Oh wow! do you at least smile? please be a little more pleasant, at least for your daughter's sake as she will be picking up your anti-social traits.

I'm also amiable to chat with anyone who reciprocates or looks/comes across as pleasant

increasingly, the country parts of amuuurica have adopted the ice-cold unfriendliness of the big cities, strangers don't chat anymore, by and large. in my small town, there is still some bonhomie but it is disappearing with the older generations.

Yes and COVID19 has provided an excuse for my neighbors to be more unfriendly to me than they usually are.

it is downright diabolical how good people are disappearing left and right, leaving behind the mean and crafty ones. these feel like the end times to me.

Yes, it's the age of Karens. The receptionist at my daughter's music school told me one of the mothers who lives in a massive three story mansion and drives a $300000 Tesla is enjoying the lockdown because she gets to not have to interact with peasants outside of her gated community who come and doorknock or pass by her street. She seemed to be sincerely pleased.

I think a lot of the wealthy compartmentalise their dissonance over their beliefs and their religious/spiritual aspirations.
For all I know this woman probably thinks heaven looks like a paradise where one needs private membership like a country club.

she doubtless would think she is among the elect that have exclusive access to heaven, and that the rest of us will burn in hell forever, a prospect which would bring a smile to her face. antisocial types are so boring, they are so similar.

I don;t think its so much "antisocial" as much as "selective" over whom they consider "worthy". I've seen plenty of aspiring "petit bourgeois" who don't smile and give a condescending look and aren't exactly rolling in money themselves.

i guess a better term would be "dissocial" in that they stick to their own kind and everybody else is an outsider.

Yeah and whom they consider their "own kind" varies.
