Boo-hoo, break is over and you’re back at work. But at least the morning rush has calmed down, so that’s a good thing. On the other hand, now that the morning rush has calmed down, chatty coworker is out front with you. He wants to tell you all about his latest favorite anime series.
HE WAXES POETIC; YOU…
Listen! There’s nothing wrong with being a sympathetic ear, even though you have about a minus seventeen percent interest in what he’s talking about. Still, there’s always something to be learned from cartoons. Hey, cool! Now you have an enhanced understanding of Anime Boy’s brain!
Only pretend to listen, all the while running your own internal monologue of DREAM DATE, WHY CAN’T I FIND YOU? AND WHY CAN’T I QUIT YOU? alternating with THIS CONVERSATION IS BORING, BORING, BORING!
