I was loading my huge and possibly-goofy, colorful suitcase into my car, head down, slightly stressing over the weight, when I suddenly heard some man yelling loudly at me; looked up, he was at least 2 parking spaces away but he just HAD to startle me out of my skin in order to crack this joke: "I guess you wouldn't miss that one at the airport!!!" I just glared at him as he kept walking.
The back message being, "I'm safe because I have a sense of humor and I'm clearly attracted to you so here's an uninvited dad joke to help you feel awkward, you know, just to make it weird."
Some people just can't help stating the bleeding obvious.
l have a small red sock knotted on the handle of my suitcase. it is invaluable in finding my luggage at baggage claim.
Sorry you were startled, however, maybe the guy was lonely and just wanted attention..... what color is your "possibly goofy" suitcase?
Yes, probably so. It's purple, with owls on it. I just thought introverts might relate to the feeling. It would have felt much different if he were, for example, standing next to me in a line or something, rather than yelling suddenly from afar.
@Agn0s Love the color purple, and owls are awesome! We introverts do have issues with other humans who are extremely extroverted. At least I do, but I try to keep in mind others enjoy the banter back and forth with others.
