I still use this strategy when I work late with the dreaded control protocolls every researcher has to fill in when independent people come to monitor you work.

But then I use earphones, since everybody else is also there doing it the last night before

Just another quiet day at Sociophobics Anonymous: Since noone wanted to start with the "My name is NN, and I'm a Sociophobic"-routine, we all just lurked in the corners and closets until the time was up and we could go home to our computers. No holding hands either, just a quiet mumbling of "mumble... see you on ICQ later... mumble... mumble." between the oldest of members

Well, you look like a promising spammer to me... I would recommend building on your spamming skills, I believe communication will be a natural step from there

No, that is the best kind of person to talk to... means you can just nod from time to time and avoid having to actually say anything
