Good advice. I do question, however ... well, let me put it this way:
Let's say you stumble into the middle of a conversation that a group of people are having -- people who have known each other for years and years, know each others' inside jokes, know all the past events, been co-involved in the same actions, intimate details, etc.... And, you don't know any of it, haven't been there, never followed it ...
Is it really a good idea to come bumbling in, demanding proof of their conversation details, and telling them how to conduct themselves? I mean, would you just amble up to a group in public, at a bar or restaurant and start doing that? Most people would think that's kinda rude, and if they told you to buzz off, you probably had it coming, dontcha think? |
