Sometimes yeah, especially if it's something totally irrelevant to me or someone I know.

It only bothers me when I try to eat during my lunch hour, customers and bosses seem to think it's OK for them to bother me in my half hour of peace.

I think I'll start talking with my food spilling out of my mouth when they bug me.

yes .. all the time

i tend to eat alone whenever i have a meal. I hate having to eat with people because all they do is talk and they barely eat .. well, i am bulking and i need to eat eat eat! .. so getting distracted and having to talk not only makes my food cold after a while, it's a big waste of time

I don't like people talking to me when I am awake.

Same here. Another time I don't like people talking to me while I eat is if I'm eating in a hurry and need to be somewhere.

Unless i'm in a hurry to finish eating and someone is going on blah blah blah.. then yes. Otherwise no.

IMO, having a meal with someone would involve some conversation. I wouldnt want to sit with someone or a bunch of people who sat and ate in total silence.

getting watched while i eat has nothing to do with what i said above. I am saying that i hate when people talk a lot and ask questions which makes me have to talk and therefore wastes my time especially since i have classes in between and have to eat a lot since i am bulking.

Like i said before, why are you still following me around and getting on my case about every post? You're doing what mino does to clemson. Get off me.

Sick!

I dont mind eating with a lot of people but I cant talk a lot while eating, I cant carry on a meaningful conversation. My brain shuts down while I am eating.

I chew gum all day.

What's real funny is that I started a couple of threads and he made his usual snide remarks which I ignored.
So when I finally did respond he cries like the closet liberal he is and says I pick on him.

I enjoy eating while I converse, as long as I'm not in a hurry. Even then, I will just keep shoveling the food down giving generic responses while they blather away. Most people don't really want to hear you talk anyway, they just want to run their mouth.



The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

Me too. Also it depends on the other person. Some can carry out meaningful conversations where as others only make small talk. Either dosent bother me so long as it is a topic i am not intrested in listening to. Like listening to someone going on and on about their kids (If i wanted to know about kids, i'd have some of my own!)

But they say eating together (with some conversation involved) brings people together.

It is amazing how the other person will like you just because you are a good listener, a skill that is rare.

Not a big fan of chatting while I eat.



Let me describe the perfect date: I take her out to a nice dinner. She looks amazing. Some guy tries to hit on her... now he wants to fight - so I grab him - I throw him into the jukebox! Then the other ninja’s got a knife, he comes at me, we grapple, I turn his knife on him. Blood on the dance floor. She’s scared now. I take her home. I’m holding her in my arms. I reach in for a kiss... I hear something in the leaves, I flip her around, she gets a poison arrow right in her back. She was in on it the whole time... but I knew...
