My “friends” say it’s because I’m crazy. Personally, I enjoy my own company and like to play out conversations that I’ve had in the past or conversations I’m about to have. Sometimes I bitch to myself audibly

Are you sure it’s “you” answering the question you ask? Or is it one of you.

Depends. Is your “friend” also a volleyball?

Yes, it’s me. It’s always been me.

You put friends in parentheses. Please explain. Are they really doctors?

I don’t have close friends. Just people that want to party with me mostly. I get uncomfortable when people try to get close. I always find an excuse not to hang out with someone.

I have faults

How do you know though? Do you have long stretches of time that is unaccounted for?

Yeah that used to happen. ADHD is a bitch. I’d be focusing on a task and then all of a sudden 30 minutes would go by without doing anything

Have you considered becoming a motivational speaker, Bill? Then you could live in a van down by the river.

I think I might have dissociative identity disorder




Me too!

Bill, I too have questions regarding my mental health status and like to air them on a message board targeting smart asses. Seems perfectly reasonable.

I tend to talk to myself rather a lot when I'm alone. I had a teacher in high school who liked to say of talking to himself, "best conversation I ever had." I quite like that. He also happened to be one of my favorite teachers, and among the very best teachers I ever had.

Talk away, Bill.

I often do as well Cam. How else am I going to decide if a song is the greatest of all time? The conversations are intriguing.
