Nah Rake tells the best stories. Really, all of his posts have a weird aura about them. Like for some reason I read all of his posts in a semi-sarcastic, yet unaware tone but most of the time he's being serious.

We've talked about this, he's awesome too.

I can never tell if he's being serious or not, but he's entertaining as hell.

I randomly start convos with a lot of strangers for trolling purposes, and I'm pretty fluent with them. I'd give myself a 8-9 there.

With my friends, probably about a 6-7.

With people I know who I don't consider friends, probably 2-3.

So in other words, you have better conversations with strangers than with your friends? Mind blown

[Eat Like A Bosh]

Probably around a 3 with a random dude which I don't have much in common.

With my friends, probably around a 6. I'm no comedian, even though I occasionally blurt out some funny shit at times. If it's a large group, I usually be more of a listener. But tbh, how much I talk, usually depends on who I'm talking to

[shlver]

Probably 2. With people I know, 5.

Yeah, I just say whatever comes to my mind around people I know I will never see again. Told this random n[COLOR="Black"]igga[/COLOR] he looked like A$AP Rocky the other day. Asked him when the album was dropping.

I'm 10 times better with random chicks I get at on the street than I am with bitches I know.

If you can remember, about where would you say you rated prior to taking some of the key courses to get your degree?

Before college i'd probably say I was at about a 6 or 7. My overall self confidence skyrocketed in college as opposed to the HS version of myself. I was always good when it came to holding convos with friends and stuff, but the communications courses and just social life in general thru college made me a lot more comfortable when it came to speaking to strangers.

Part of it was just natural growth and maturity that comes with getting older, part of it was increased self confidence and part of it was the actual classes and major.

[Myth]

I think I am pretty high on that list. Rarely do I have to clarify, and when I do, it is because of the comprehension skills of the person I am speaking with.

**waits for somebody to ask for clarification**

[DeuceWallaces]

Definitely on the high end, but required to speak, give seminars, hold meeting with potentially intimidating colleagues, and teach material on a regular basis. Pretty comfortable, don't stammer, very aware of pacing ums, sos, and other distracting repetitive banter. Definitely keep the mood light with what's been described as enthusiastic cynicism.

harvey specter is a 10

me on the other hand, prob a 5 or 6. i dont go out of my way to talk to strangers but i am ok with them if they ask questions. being in nyc, there are 10 million strangers, so cant avoid them all lol.

#5

[JEFFERSON MONEY]

8 in terms of conversational ability, 5-6 in terms of delivery

i talk waaaaay too fast and i haven't felt nervous, anxious or anything in quite a minute

its seriously a fukkin pain in the ass like u know how latinos specially ricans speak ultra fast to communicate themselves like ten syllables a second

yeah same thing

[VishaltotheG]

Anywhere from 2-5, depending on the person I'm talking to.

[airchibundo507]

3-5 depending on the setting and who I'm talking to.

[BuGzBuNNy]

I don't get it. I have nothing to talk about, period
Maybe its because I don't lead an active life? Is that it? Are most of your conversations about something you did earlier that day or earlier in the week? Do I just need to start doing more so that I can talk about what I did?

[BuGzBuNNy]

Make up a fake life or talk about someone else's life as if it were your own. We have plenty of good people to choose from here on ISH.

But then I'd have to keep up the fake life lie.
