How types talk

Sometimes I will say something and nobody will hear me, and I just give up. And other times someone does in fact realize I am speaking, but asks me what I said because I was too quiet, in which case I will often say "it really wasn't that important."

It's probably a bad habit more than anything else... I know it annoys people. But sometimes what I have to say really isn't important enough for me to say loudly.

But still is in that theoretical overlapping region where it is important enough for me to say quietly...

What you have to say is important enough, by virtue of you yourself being important enough to be heard, to be said audibly. If people don't hear you then it's *their* goddamn fault. I recommend eardrum + icepick.

I think it's fairly obvious I'm very down to earth and simple in my speech. Sometimes I worry it makes me seem dumber than I really am but I just like to cut out the extra and get to the point mainly because I know how hard it is to pay attention to other people and genuinely care so I try not to give lengthy responses to anything and instead get to the point. In the right company, I can be the loudest in the group and other times, the quietest. I hate talking about myself. I hate telling stories. Ewww

Speech. How does it work?

"I mumble a lot on stage, I'm a mumblerer. But sometimes what I mumble is some insignificant shit. Like I'll be walking down the street with my friend, and I will have said something, but he didn't hear me, so he says "What?!" So I'll say it again, and again he had not heard me, so he'd say, "What?!" And now by this time I am yelling, "That tree is very far away!""

I say "human being" and "individuals" a lot; very seldom call anyone a nasty insulting name; I will usually say "you're a jerk."

Express a lot of sympathy. I don't appeal to facts, I appeal to their emotions. I say "how can you treat human beings that way."
