I tend to find that people may have an intererst in a particular topic, yet put absolutly no thought into the topic, so if you ask them something you will get a very obvious answer and any questions (on there topic) which is not obvious based you will get a very cool reception or blank look, as if I'm the idiot for even ask the said question .
is anyone else frustrated by either
a) having to dumb down just to relate to someone?
or
b) not being able to have a meaningful and serious conversation without some yutz interjecting with "hey! lighten up guys!".
i'm so over having to fake my dumbness at parties and functions. it seems the only people i can hae a serious conversation with are my wife, other investors (few and far between) or my friend's family (they're all stockbrokers, RE agents, business owners etc).
why is it, in this country, you're shunned if you speak without a "like" chucked in before every emotion or noun or forget to put an "ay" on the end of each sentence?
god forbid you want to talk about religion or KRudd or investing ideas or finance or the GFC or anything else that doesn't relate to sport or brangelina.
Try dealing with the general public in your job - you need to do it all day long.
I don't think it's always the case that people don't want to offend or intimidate others. Some simply see a social occassion as a time to put their business aside and let their hair down.
It's at these times it's seems almost inappropriate to bring up subjects like IP's and shares.

"Lowering" oneself to "their" level from time to time may be both interesting and educational.
I find that some boguns have very interesting stories to tell.

last straw for me was making a cuppa just after our call and started to get into the demographic problems with mandurah

I actually find investment talk boring after the first 10 minutes or so, does that make me dumb?
another point for discussion - those with no opinions on ANYTHING.....
