So I don&#8217;t do well with people that I don&#8217;t know in someway or that I don&#8217;t click with.<br \/>\n{side note}You know the way sometimes you can just click with someone? Something triggers it, a common passion or interest, a similar sense of humour, physical attraction or even that <i>je ne sais quoi.<\/i>{\/side note}<br \/>\nAnyways it can lead to alot of uncomfortable situations at parties, events or work etc. The uncomfortable silence settles in and I would expect that is something everyone is in some way with familiar with. I tend to go to alot of sci-fi and comics cons or events and it&#8217;s still quite hard despite the fact that every single person attending is there for the same reason you are. Everyone has a common interest, be it a tv-show, a movie, an actor, a comic or a writer etc. But it can be tough. Like many of my &#8216;deeper&#8217; posts I have no idea where this is going but it&#8217;s going. <\/p>\n<p>To go to a whole other note for a while. I have discovered &#8220;Kurt Busiek &#8216;s Astro City&#8221; and it is a wonderful comic. The first TPB &#8220;Life in the Big City&#8221; was excellent, one of the best reads I have had in a while. The other TPB I picked up, &#8220;Confessions&#8221; was even better.  I am looking forward to picking up the rest of the series in the very near future.<\/p>\n<p>ah yes DK2 #2. On first reading I was no impressed with this, on second reading I took alot more from it and quite enjoyed it. It is however nothing special, certainly nowhere near the original or any other high point in the Batman universe. It&#8217;s a fun read and I am looking forward to the last part but it&#8217;s not going to be the first thing I read in my next comic lot.<br \/><i>soundtrack: &#8220;Hey Baby&#8221; by No Doubt<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am not a people person, I freely admit that.
