I hate all this extrovert VS introvert stuff, one side seen as vapid, gibbering apes and the other seen as loner shut-ins. It’s exhausting, especially since most people don’t fall squarely into one camp or the other.
There’s plenty of introverted people who love to talk and go out with people, they just need some time between outings to wind down and gear up and to know there’s someone around that will share their interests. Likewise, there are shy extroverts who thrive more in online spaces where they can easily manage their interactions with others and have time to think about their responses. In either case, being an asshole is not part of it.
Introvert doesn’t mean shy or socially anxious. I regularly tell people to shut the fuck up if they’re in my space being annoying.
Exactly this, my dad’s an introvert but is the most charismatic person I know. He does great with people, but is the last to arrive and the first to leave since he finds it so draining. He “recharges” when he’s by himself.
Oh, does that make him MajorEffort? Or GeneralEffort?
He’s actually AdmiralEffort.
Lockdowns during covid kinda did this and the extroverts went crazy.
Bro if you’re getting out of your comfort zone why should the zone be comfortable
They’re saying why are they the only ones getting dragged out of the comfort zone.
