[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 79 points 8 months ago (5 children) That would never be me. I'm constantly talking to myself. People think I'm crazy, but I think I'm just bursting with ideas! permalink fedilink source hideshow 10 child comments replies: [–] hoch@lemmy.world 19 points 8 months ago permalink fedilink source parent [–] BetaBlake@lemmy.world 11 points 8 months ago Yeah I talk to myself and my cat way too much, I actually talk more when I'm alone than I do when someone else is around. permalink fedilink source parent [–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 8 points 8 months ago I get lots of questioning looks in the grocery stores cause I didn't make a list and have to tell myself, audible, that I didn't need the cookies. permalink fedilink source parent [–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 child) It would be me, except I swear a lot under my breath when I run into problems with software or things.

So I can't decide if it's worse than C++, but that still seems unlikely. The upside is that a handful of swearword roots produce a vast array of actual meanings. And, we have compound swearings too! Stuff like ‘ballscockwhore cuntfuck’ is entirely possible, with shades of meaning even. I had to give up talking via swearing at a previous job, because I realized I had trouble coming up with regular words for the things I meant. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago (1 child) Dude you're not alone, talk to myself all the time. When I am caught I just tell people I was needing an expert opinion. Its gets a good laugh and people don't think I'm crazy. Agatha Christina would play out the dialog in her novels to herself outloud. Most people with an active imagination does this. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] certified_expert@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago* Now @BetaBlake is silent because of your "you are not alone" permalink fedilink source parent
