[At surprise company pizza lunch party]
Co-worker [older male, new at company, never introduced]: Did you just say ‘hi’ to me?
Me [mouth full of pizza]: No.
Co-worker: It’s so noisy in here. I don’t normally hear things. Hope you don’t think I’m crazy.
Me: Not at all. (flashing grin, preparing to introduce myself)–
Co-worker: Although everyone at this company seems crazy! Even you, and I don’t even know you!
Me: (still smiling, preparing to introduce myself–)
Co-worker: But I have nothing against crazy people. Schizophrenics can be fun. And clowns too. We’re all either one or the other.
Me: (big bite of pizza)
