I am the same way. I can't imagine myself yackin on the phone for long periods of time. My phone calls are short and to the point and then ended.

That's kinda why I asked the question. What do people talk about? It is not just in the grocery stores, but pretty much everywhere I go, people are either talking or texting. What about???

Am I missing something important that is happening in life?

And it is not just the younglings. Old farts like me are also yappin all the time.

I realize that I am an introvert and in addition obnoxious and disliked so the idea of socially talking to anyone is pretty much a strange concept to me.

Is it all small talk and how much small talk can one person do???
