WTF. LOL:rastasmoke:

Well the person you described is my mother, when I was younger I would hate having to argue with her, and her voice would make me cringe. She was always right about everything, even when I would prove her wrong and she knew it, she would yell about something else. This actually reminds me of a funny story... Me and a buddy of mine where about to smoke a bowl when she calls, i talk for about two minutes untill she goes off telling a story, put the phone on my lap and start smoking the bowl. Finish the bowl, pick the phone up say, "uh huh" and she never knew that I hadnt listened to a word she said.

Other than that, my friend/co-worker talks forever, about nothing and also knows the right answers, and hes girls are always better looking than everyone elses, he could knock out Mike Tyson with one punch, and always has the best bud in the nation. But he still makes me laugh.

But out of my close friends, I am the talker, I also have a booming voice, and that doesnt help. And like Slip I dont like the silence, it makes me think to much, and they are in depth thoughts over shit. I have to have a tv on to sleep, cause Im not much of a music fan.

The guy I dated this summer, his mom was one of those people... She would always find some way to focus the conversation to herself. Nice woman, but it gets eck after a while.

I can relate to this... I dont talk all the time, but I hate absolute silence (not like silence out in nature, but that silence of a dead room indoors) It makes my ears literally ring. Although thats cause I have Tinnitis, which is a condition resulting from a slight hearing impairment).

It makes me hate silence indoors, I try to keep some music playing at all times if I can, even quietly. But still, someone that talks all the time, even if most of what they say is intelligent and not rambling it's bound to get annoying.

my wife talks and talks and talks and don't hear any of it lol. After a while I'm just like. yo ya know I have no idea what the hell your talking about.... all just starts to blend together and sounds like a swarm of bees buzzing around my ear hehe. Not like I'm any better though, I'm a story teller, I've lived an eventful life, if ya wanna hear some funny or informative shit get me started talking

People with A.D.D./A.D.H.D. can talk, and while you're talking, not listen, then interrupt you when you're halfway through your sentence.

I had a friend with ADD. It was pretty annoying.

I think you learn more by listening. Sometimes when I first start to get high I'm a talker. Normally everyone else is at that point too though so no one gets annoyed.

yep, brothers wife. it can come in handy sometimes as unless it is someone i know well i can have a tendency to run into huge dead ends in conversation. i guess i know her well but that also goes for people i dont particularly like. those damn dead ends. but with her shell just be like, uh can we talk about(whatever she was talking about before you started) now/again. no shit shell just come right out and say that. no shame haha

Slip and Blitzed, do you have tinnitis too? Or your disliking of the silence have another cause?
I ask because i could never understand how people can stand noise all the time, without any moments of silence. Once my family went to a farm, a very quiet place, where you can hear the wind on the trees, birds singing, and so. But always, ALWAYS, there was someone who turned on the radio, preferibly loud, or the tv... i was very pissed... they all live in a great city, full of noise, why does they dont enjoy (and dont let nobody else enjoy) the peace and silence of the place?
Then i realized that many people simply cant stand the silence. For me, its as incomprehensible as it may seems for you my liking for quietness, and my disliking for noise.
Anyway, i would like to understand it, so i would like to know why does you cant stande the silence? What it causes to you, or what it makes you feel? Or, why does it bothers you so much?

I try not to interupt people, but damn, i can talk non stop for hours - if it's something i enjoy - like ganja or boats.

When i went to the dam in 06 i met a guy in a bar and we we're talking about boating for hours upon hours.

But then i can go for hours and hours without saying a word.
