Chatting up complete strangers

Pretty much.

After talking to strangers for a while, you kind of get used to how to conduct a conversation with people.

I'm absolutely weird/strange, everyone knows this, but I'm also humorous, so most of the times, my random conversations can go anywhere at any given moment.

I've ALWAYS met random people. At the Doctor's office, I met this dude who was into WoW. We went ot the Burger King next door (we had to wait hours to get in) and ate and cracked jokes.

I actually don't find it odd that a lot of the more prominent posters find it odd/disturbing/intruding. Why else would you be sitting on a computer all day if you had social skills?

How ya doing, buddy?

I think I gave advice, IE: Chat up random strangers, make more friends.

I wasn't gloating in the least. I said I find it odd.

But whatever, take offense because you're a social retard.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
