but i am a huge loser and maybe one day an extrovert will adopt me again
just be honest and fuck them if they're shallow, dont be fake

>>84585963
"Sorry I'm busy"

my job has a spotlight thing where they take new employees and interview them and show the interviews to everyone at mandatory all-staff meetings
everyone has kids and hobbies
i just work and hardly make enough, live with my parents, and am a loser.
my coworker is wanting to interview me
its a fucking humiliation ritual and I dont know what the fuck to say or do. I cant lie about having my own family because then theyd wanna meet my kids or some shit during an employee pic nic

>>84586566
What the fuck Is this stupid humiliation ritual?
Normalfags are evil

>>84585963
Coworkers as these questions to try and filter out who and who not to interact with so you should just turn it around and filter them with a response like watching porn or doing drugs

>>84585963
Work is work, never engage or make friends. Don't make gossip or give any information about your life. You are just a cog in the machine and your so called co-employees will step over you to get above in the corporate world, even if that means using whatever you said out of context.

Tldr - tell them to fuck off

>>84585963
I am not a huge loser so let's see, I'd just answer:
>Oh, just stuff like I don't know, build furniture, read some stuff, doomscroll, go skateboarding, actually unironically still mallrat with some of my friends from to time at this age, whatever
>No.

>>84587665
you underestimate what nosey bitches normalfags are
You say, "I like to read"
they want to know what you like to read so they can judge you even though on average the typical adult hasnt touched a book since highschool.
If you say you doomscroll theyll correctly assume youre terminally online which is social suicide for anyone attempting to pass as a normie for work.
if you say you skateboard theyll assume youre childish.
they will always assume the worst.

>>84585963
answer however you like, if you dont have "it" youre fucked anyways, and people who have "it" will always be able to tell that you dont. they think you are a huge loser regardless of what you say or do.

reminder that normies can: commit crimes without consequence, spread rumours about you that are verifiably false and have people believe these rumours, and insult you and then tell you to "stand up for yourself," and once you do, they take that as an opportunity to ostracize you. you are fucked unless you have whatever telepathic instinctual voodoo bullshit they have. normies are essentially isekai anime protagonists, its bullshit.

>>84588624
nta.
>they want to know what you like to read
did this to me. I happened to have been 3 books at that point, one of which was bullshit recommended to me by a female. So I pulled up the image on my phone and told my co-workers this is the latest fiction I've read and it was total fucking shit. Learned nothing, wasted time. I'd rather read about economics or technology.
And they have never brought up the books with me, again.

You're not supposed to answer anything. You're not on trial and it's really unwise to go around yapping about your personal life to literal strangers. Normies ask these things because they're social animals and people spend over a third of their life at work, so if they don't get their social fix there, they'll go postal.
You can just ignore them and do your job. This will make them hate you and that's fine. The sooner you accept that most people will hate you, the better. If they spread rumors about you, ignore those too, agree with them, even. What's the worst they can do? Gang stalk you?

>>84589205
this seems like bait advice posted by a normie, stop larping as if youre a le stoic badass cyclepath and just admit that you're well liked and have never dealt with real social ostracization and hate before.

>>84589267
I admit I'm kind of a normie, but I am definitelly not well-liked. I can give non-loser answers to the questions in the OP, but the thing is, it doesn't end with just those questions. Normies will keep asking until they know more about you than yourself.
I just keep quiet and do my job and give curt replies whenever I'm asked anything. It annoys people and I can see it annoys them and I don't care. My coworkers can't fire me and if I get fired for being quiet, then good riddence. Eventually I'll find a job where I can work in peace.
>real social ostracization and hate
woe is you, lol

>>84589205
>What's the worst they can do?
Make shit up for HR or call meetings citing they're not feeling comfortable at the place of work anymore.

>>84585963
I don't think anyone has genuinely asked me if I have a gf. The answer is just so obvious.

Lie, of course.
>I don't want relationships now, just had a bad experience of [big number] years and I am focusing on my career now
>I do [normie activities] with a group of friends I have

>>84589556
Nomalfags small talk every day bro, if you lie you need to keep lying continuously

You can just be self-deprecating and say
>oh not much, I'm kinda boring
and deflect into a
>what about you?
this will work a lot of the time because the people making smalltalk are just looking for a trigger to start talking themselves.

>"do you have a gf"
Just be honest. People who are single will empathize, and women who are in relationships will probably try to play matchmaking and hook you up with some single mom friend they know (which is a bit annoying but not the end of the world, and who knows, maybe you meet a nice girl).
As an adult you need to get more comfortable being who you are, and not be apologetic about it. You're the sperg you are. Don't pretend you're chad and lie or try to obfuscate and be mysterious, it'll backfire.

>>84589589
I know. That is why I am telling you to lie, otherwise the small talk won't be about some made up hobbies, but about how weird you are. The hobbies part is something you can watch a youtube video on so you can learn the basics.

>My coworkers can't fire me and if I get fired for being quiet
they can cause all sorts of consequences for you regardless of your input, quiet or not if you think the worst that can happen is you being fired you are clearly a normie that everyone thinks is a bit cold/stuck up. my "vibes" are so off that people see me and compare me to serial killers and mass shooters instantly, wish i was joking
>woe is you, lol
yes, it is, your callousness suggests that you have no idea what its like to face actual consequences from these animals, actual demons in human skin that will beat you and come up with lie after lie to get you ostracized. also the cops are always going to be on their side, same with any sort of authority figure, its rigged against me why shouldnt i be upset?

>>84585963
>"what do you do In your free time"
Snort meth and jack off to /trash/
>"do you have a gf"
No but sometimes when I'm on meth I dress up in slutty girl clothing and jack off to myself in the mirror so I don't really see the point of having a gf
