I’m not that complicated and I’d rather you didn’t pin the entire intricacy of socialization on me personally. I’m okay with phatics like “fine”, but if you’re actually talking to me, specifically, I’ll also take “enh” or other non-information as a sign not to pursue the conversation as long as I’m reasonably on the ball and you can also tell me “I’d rather not talk about that”.
You’re aware I did not invent the tire slashing metaphor, right? You seem to be reacting very strongly and specifically to it. I linked a source the first time I used it here.

That’s good to know but I wouldn’t have guessed it from what you said in the post about slashing tires.
