I usually just say, “Interesting point.” and move on. It’s polite enough to progress and blasé enough that they know I don’t give a shit but am giving them an out.
Oops. I sometimes respond with “interesting.” when I don’t know how else to respond; might explain a few things. 🫤
i don’t. i’m to old for this shit. i just leave and do my thing.
Later…
I have the bad habit of maintaining eye contact and nodding my head out of politeness while people are talking, pretty much regardless of what kind of batshit crazy stuff they’re saying. It’s astonishing what people end up thinking I agree with. I try to force myself to stare off into the distance and keep my head fixed, but some people even take that as agreement and a sign that they should keep talking and talking and talking.
That’s Grant Imahara
