I work in a small team, so fortunately, the number of extraverted people is quite low. I find, if I give the people that absolutely crave attention however much they want early in the day, that quiets them down considerably during the rest of the day. They’ll have flare-ups every now and then, and lunchtime is unavoidable, unfortunately, but with practice, I’ve become able to wear them out before they wear me out, if that makes sense. Good luck and peace be with you.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is it just me, or have the comments on Lemmy become extra aggressive over the past 3 months?
24·2 years agoCareful with the punctuation it makes you seem rather aggressive
Not sure if I understand correctly, but it seems that 196 may have a home for what you’re maybe describing

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the oldest piece of tech you still have running?
11·2 years agoShould be able to dig up a fully functioning Sony Minidisk player. Owned and lost quite a few of them over the years. Damn things were sleek and small, but they meant the world to me. Napster and then Limewire provided the mp3s thanks to the old 56k dialup modem, then a mini jack connection from PC to the Minidisk. It took a hell of a long time to get everything set up just so, but it was worth it. Every time.

10·2 years agoMy iRiver is just lying around in a box somewhere. I totally forgot about it. Poor thing. Has some nice weight to it, well-distributed, very high-quality build.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Introverts of Lemmy, what do you do when you feel lonely?
131·2 years agoBefore I became a parent of 2 with an extraverted partner, I used to get lonely from time to time. I would get over myself and call a friend I hadn’t seen in a while, regardless of whether I felt like it was their turn to get in touch with me. That or go to the cinema by myself, which somehow feels less lonely than watching something at home.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•This may seem kind of stupid but I am kind of stupid, is there a list somewhere of phrases that are stupid or insensitive racially or gender biased?
12·2 years agoHe’s wealthy, or at least he’s treated as such most of the time, so the word you’re looking for is eccentric.

I feel like there’s a multitude of reasons on my part, but Louis Rossmann put a nail in it with this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y83BS_mK9GE
