'Hello. Would you like to learn how I defeated my leprosy by staring into the Sun?'
It's when people make comments such as 'Don't give a fuck about others, tell them to piss off!' that I understand why they spend their life on an internet forum.
IMHO, it is infinitely better to have a friend, than an enemy.

People are far from chaotic, dragon. There are unofficial guidelines on how to make friends. People may differ slightly in what interests them, but at the core, they all the desire the same thing (appreciation, kind words, to talk about what interests them, etc.)
ypu prefer people to come out straight away debating about the universal existence of energy.
raven walks into a bar and starts talking to some chick at a table who is alone. "hey my names raven, but thats enough small talk. so what is your take on the existence of the universe?"
the girl replies "errm well hi, im jessica, what do you mean existence of the universe?"
raven gives her a confused look, controls his anger, takes a deep breath and replies saying. "you know, universal existence of space, energy and all matter that resides within its form, do you think it always existed or was created?"
the girl looks blankly back at raven sipping her vodka and coke, then begins to say "i work as a beautician in the local hair and nail salon, what exactly is this universe thing?"
Raven storms off cursing under his breath " damn assholes with thier puny brains"
peace.

Scene: A bar, somewhere near Finsbury Park, 2 starangers meet for the first time, one is chi, the other is tabla.
Tab: Hey man, that's a cool looking sword you got there hanging out your Levis.
Chi: You what? You calling me an antichrist or whateva?
Tab: No man, I just saw your sword and it reminded me of this star formation you can sometimes see in space, it's called the reaper or something.
Chi: So you calling me the antichrist then?
Tab: No bro' just this star thing whateva...not that I'm calling you that, but, your sword...it reminded me of it.
Chi: Are you some kind of existentialist that can never decide on the origins of the universe, or even, whether the universe actually exists or whether it's just some figment of your imagination, or even some ploy by the mass media to sidetrack you into believing in things that don't even exist?
Tab:...
Chi: Maybe you think that we were all created by some indescribable force, for the sole purpose of...what's that love? Yeah a pint of bitter for me and a vodka and tonic for my wife please...Where's that bald bastard got to?

Hey, not necessarily!! I can make small talk with anyone, but thats because if I really spoke about what interested me, everyone would fall asleep!

If I were having a conversation with you and the impression I got was that you were very smooth and practiced at it, I would wonder why you were putting up this facade, and I would keep in mind that I was not seeing the real you.
Thus, I would not trust you.
