Yes John! πŸ‘ You're officially the community's first advertisement and have been promoted to the board 😁 I actually think "being talky" is grossly underestimated. Meaningful connection is something that so many people lack in their lives

I’m addicted to conversations with strangers.

You and me both John πŸ˜‚

I’ve collected so many stories!

The art of storytelling is another underestimated skill. Especially today on the world of character limits 😁

One of my favorite things to do is to be given two disparate topics and the tell a story that somehow involves both. It’s like a word game.

Sounds like you'd have done well in improvisational stand up

Never did it for an audience but I loved acting class in highschool. I just love story telling and eyecontact

Story telling and eye contact you say? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Haha! Eyecontact is powerful! That's why its so awkward sometimes because its surprisingly intimate even at a distance. Like quantum entanglement of your minds.

You know, you just reminded me of this time I chatted some guy at a bar on one of my business trips. He was waiting for his colleagues. Later, after he left for his table, he stopped by and gave me the most heartfelt thank you for talking to him. He said it had been a long time since someone just listened to him. I’ll never forget that moment.

That's some value added right there πŸ‘ For talky people it feels like nothing. For others it's so valuable
