    I’m a member of a maker space. It’s a fun game to “nerd snipe” other members, as they are leaving.

    It can backfire however. We’ve had the sun come up on us, while chatting in the car park. That was a mutual win/loss.

    I have to restrain myself and limit the number of “that reminds me of” moments in day to day conversations.

    Ah but which of you generously assumes the task of thread-keeping and context-restoration most of the time?

    Who kindly reminds the other that they were making a larger point, so we can say “oh shit, right! As I was saying…”

    Whether it’s because you’re actually curious or just saving us from remembering the unfinished idea as we fall asleep…

    You are hands down our favorite person to get aimlessly lost in conversation with <3
