Based on the number of rubber duckies I've seen lately even at collectibles shops, there is definitely a market for rubber duckie paintings. :3

Yikes. Just had a scary situation while going to get gas. I was driving past my local Barnes & Nobel and I found a lady on the ground with her little dog running around her licking her face. She has a dizzy spell due to blood pressure issues. Fortunately no serious injuries and another person came to assist as well. The little dog is absolutely no help though. I grab the leash and it is running circles around my legs tangling me thinking it is play time while its dog momma is having a medical episode. But she is safe and sound now. So at least that is over with.

I knew it! It's the government! The gay lizard aliens sent these ants to my office to steal our corporate secrets for the shadow government! *smack smack smack.*

A bit early for new year's resolutions, but I found something on the smaller side to add to my list. Improve my general writing skills. I've picked up on some bad writing habits I should work on when typing messages. I am remembering lessons from my English classes talking about not excessively using certain words or eliminating them. In my case, I use the word "just" too much and should cut that out. I know this may seem like an odd post or seemingly insignificant. But little stuff like this matters when looking towards self improvement.

Sweet slippery snow sleds, it has been cold lately. It is supposed to get below 30 in my area tonight. Gonna need some piping hot cocoa after work tonight. Should probably become a blanket burrito too.

Everything you say is true. And everyone should keep your point in mind. As you stated, no one owes you interaction, and you are correct. Anyone in the dating scene particularly should keep that in mind. But I should clarify the point of this post is not about personal rejection or people not wanting to talk to me. There are plenty of people here I have normal conversations with, no drama or whatever. What I described here is in a small fraction of my personal interactions on this site. But considering the social isolation issues a lot of society has these days, it is an interesting point to touch on. So like if you just didn't reply to a hello message, that is fine. Pretty straight forward declaration of Not Interested In You. I see no issues here. Everyone just moves on. But when someone sends ME a friend request, then they give a response saying they think having a casual conversation is itself a waste of time or an indicator of a ill-fitted person for romantic purposes, that's where something seems a bit off. That is a bit of context perhaps I should have had in my first post. The point is that having conversation and making an effort to talk to people is a pre-requeset to forging friendships or romantics attractions and such. Some people think you can just skip over that part, but no.
