Hell is other people at breakfast

I came across this article today which struck a chord with me (via). In a roundabout way I think it part explains why I like doing this blog. I get social interaction through it but on my own terms.

I'm an introvert. You are a wonderful person and I like you. But now please shush.

Is this you coming out as an introvert like we have all known for ages mate?! Particularly liked this bit:
"Are introverts arrogant? Hardly. I suppose this common misconception has to do with our being more intelligent, more reflective, more independent, more level-headed, more refined, and more sensitive than extroverts." So introverts arent arrogant, they just think that they are better than extroverts?! (are there inbetweenverts?)

I didn’t exactly envisage this post to be a ‘coming out session’ as its not like a guilty secret or anything. I didn’t realise it was (apparently) so obvious though.

And it appears you can get inbetweenverts too, they are just called ambiverts.
