"How to Care for Your Introvert" - the most popular Atlantic article of all time

I know this is real old, but I really identify with it. I’d say it applies to me about 97% of the time.

juliaallison:

You probably won’t believe me, but 75% of the time, I’m an introvert.

Didn’t expect me to say that, did you?

I identified with almost every facet of introversion Rauch describes (with the notable exception of “thinking before talking.”  I do not do that.)  But needing two hours alone for every hour with people?  Hell, that’s nothing.  I need four hours.  Sometimes four days.

When I’m out in social situations, I’m an extrovert - but interacting with people absolutely exhausts me, which is why, if given a choice, I’ll stay in five nights a week.  I have never felt that parties were “fun” … they always seemed like work to me.  I much prefer one-on-one conversation.  And now I know why.

Then again, maybe this is just how most people feel. (??)

Okay, so I’m having this debate.

My friend says that I used the word “didactic” incorrectly, above.

Now, vocabulary tends to be one of my … errr … passions?  God, that sounds lame.  Whatever.  I just really like it, okay??

So when someone tells me I misused a word, I get EXTREMELY CONSTERNATED.  Did I indeed misuse a word?  The shame!  The humiliation! The ignominy!! (okay, I just looked that one up in the thesaurus)

Anyway, after blushing for a solid half hour over my gaffe, I looked it up again (see here).  Now I’m not entirely convinced I used it wrong, per se.

What do you think?

(I wish I had some sort of polling HTML I could plug in here …)

yeah..seems like the wrong use…

The Coup

  • Jan: [answering the phone] Hello?
  • Dwight: Is this Jan?
  • Jan: Who is this?
  • Dwight: This is Dwight Schrute. I am calling about an extremely sensitive matter.
  • Jan: You should talk to Michael, and he'll talk to me, and that way we don't have to speak to each other.
  • Dwight: It's about Michael.
  • Jan: What about him?
  • Dwight: [exhales] I can't talk here. It's too sensitive.
  • Jan: It's not about a surprise party is it?
  • Dwight: No, but we should discuss that another time.
  • Jan: Look, I am already an hour outside of Scranton, Dwight, I'm not coming back.
  • Dwight: Pull over at exit 40. There is a Liz Claiborne outlet. I know you like that store. Go inside and shop, until I can meet you.
  • Jan: How do you know I like that store?
  • Dwight: Many of your blouses are Claiborne's.
  • Jan: How do you know that?
  • Dwight: Part of my job.
  • Jan: No it's not. It's officially not.
  • Dwight: ...noted.
