i feel silly that i started this topic. i was very tired and approaching a meltdown because of a number of factors not related to this site. briefly, it was that i had to go to my "girlfriend's" place for a party celebrating her grandmothers birthday.
she has brothers and sisters around my age, and they treated me like a squawking parrot, and ignored every input i tried to contribute to their conversation.
Sounds like a bad couple of days. Better you than me.
That family sounds like a bunch of boring a-holes. I can't STAND being around people like that - who can't handle intelligence and observation.
Forget them - next time you're in that situation and you can tell you are way above everyone's heads - just leave. Its not you - its them.
If they don't even have the manners to pretend to understand what you're saying - then they have nothing to offer you.
