Your welcome. You should have heard me and my girlfriend giggling (mood enhanced) when she went to the potty and noticed tampons in the litter box and asked if my coon was on the rag.
Well, maybe you had to be there.
Oh, you have a pet raccoon! I thought it was just a visitor stealing tampons or something...
yes, have always had career's dealing with the public...and spark up conversations easily with strangers...love listening to their stories....and have met some of the most wonderful & interesting people.
It depends on how the stranger looks. If it is a woman I try to be courteous and polite and if it is a man just polite. I limit myself not to have a conversation unless we find we have something in common, but being the antisocial individual I am that's highly unlikely to happen.
Do I talk to strangers? Well.. it depends on how strange they are.. if they are stranger than me, then I probably would.
You asked!
Actually, when I was a kid I was told not to talk to strangers. Now at 52, I am still careful. Typically when I'm at a public place, like a grocery store or a mall, I don't start conversations with complete strangers, other than just a hi, how are you doing? The only time I'd talk to strangers is under certain situations that grab everybody's attention. Like just last week, I was at a grocery store, standing in line at one of those self-service check-out counters, when they had to reboot the registers for some reason, and the guy behind me and his wife started a conversation with me about technology, and we exchanged jokes about it.
Wasn't there a song in the 80's that went something like this ..... "Don't talk, don't talk to strangers ..."???
I thought Ronnie James Dio had a song called Don't Talk To Strangers in the 1980's.
