I find that most conversations which occur on a daily basis with the average human is repeatitive and for the majority full of filler (at best).
Their thoughts, feelings and beliefs are filler and that when they are in a situation where complex thoughts or different angles of view on "reality" are presented that people are very disdainful and angry.
People tend to become disdainful towards me. It is their choice but I don't see my words as malice.
I am positive and receptive to most people with some intrinsic value, a higher level of awareness and who are high energy.
I also tend to acquire the same disdainful views of them mutually.
I am currently in a state of disgust. Outside of the realm of work I do not want to endure needless talk to new people. I am seen as the man in black roaming around at work and people very rarely engage in conversation with me. People who engage in conversation with me are the few that seem to be able to handle real conversation on some level.
When you enter a store, go to a check out, appear interested in something people like to flock to you and gab gabb gabbb.
Next Thursday or Friday I will go thru a normal day without saying one word (not even outload to myself). I will try to do this without the buffer of headphones.
Any ideas of where I should go to be challenged?

Hmm, I often go whole days without speaking to anyone in public. Of course I tell my bf I love him every day, but elsewise, as long as I don't have to work, I can generally get away with a few nods and maybe a grunt or two. As far as where to go... your list looks so far so good. You can stop by the gas station too. Maybe the video store. If you're really feeling up to a challenge, try the bank hehe. By the by, do you ever get on IM? I need some more people to harass. By the by too, the forum still isn't working on my PC, but seems to be fine on the laptop. Go figure.

Whatever is the busiest restaurant where you live, that is what I would recommend simply because it's obvious and I want to hear how you managed a restaurant without speaking NP

I'm on Yahoo a good amount but almost always invisible.

Any ideas for a difficult type of food to order? I've wanted good sushi for a while. Busy could be late night or lunch time.

My husband is a lot more social than I. I have a hard time talking to people I don't know. I'm very quiet and I won't talk unless I can relate on some level. The few people on this earth that I do have mutual understanding (aka, friend) are scattered across the globe. Only one in CT remains. I don't blame them. America sucks.
There's a new, disturbing cultural trend that I cannot stand: that's acceptance of stupidity. It's okay to elect someone who knows nothing of domestic or foreign affairs to become Vice president (or in the position to easily become president). It's okay to accept her underage unwed teenage pregnant daughter. It's okay to accept figures like Brittany Spears, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan to act like sluts and make millions from it. It's okay to have morals and not stand by them.
Because I have attitudes like this, I don't talk to many people in public, because I fear that someday I will let the truth of what I think out... and I would probably get arrested for expressing my first amendment right.
I'm not saying everyone here has reached that new low. Thanks to the internet, I met all of you. So I do know there's intelligent life out there. But on a whole, I don't do idle conversation or attempt to be nice unless I'm being received by someone with close to equal intellect.
It's hard to find.

I should also note, that when I was a teenager, I used to go days speaking without anyone noticing. My parents were everquest addicts and never spoke to me and I slept through all my classes. I'm pretty sure I went through many days, even weeks, like that. I refused to communicate with idiots, so I never talked.

We have the opportunity to be like the founding fathers.
The British owned this land then lost it (mostly) and then... Multi-National Globalist Groups/Companies/Familes now own this place...
This is now a nation is the living dead desperate consumers and we are now in a fight to wake up others, regain rights, and make it what it was originally designed to be again.
I have always said almost everything that bounced around my brain and let it flow out no matter the situation. I was always asked as a teen if I've ever been beaten up for saying the what I say. I have never been in a fight in my life even though I have asked/invited for them literally.
Efficiency & Progress are key in my life but I let them fall out of my hands from time to time.
Northwest America can't handle vicious humor or aggression. Living in an area void of aggression has lowered my blood pressure but I still rip out of my more relaxed state from time to time.
Keeping the things that I say simple and plain is best way for me to work with people around here... but the problem is that life is infinity complex.
The full calculations of what occurs in life on a daily basis are so multi-threaded on multi-levels that I can't help but be drawn into gazing into the wonders of this dynamic world.
From time to time I do relax deeply and escape but to me that seems to be a last case scenario to survive existence.
