[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, i get it and would be similarly perplexed. I envy anyone who is unbothered by this sort of thing because they a) don’t even notice; b) notice but easily tune out and carry on; or 3) notice but are not bothered because they have total compassion for their fellow humans.

Unfortunately, I also “need” to understand how the offending speaker can have so little regard for those held hostage in conversation hell.

IMO, your yoga mate doesn’t sound like a sweet, benign, empty nester who simply misses her son. People like that are not irritating. In fact, they’re very likeable - who doesn’t love a parent’s genuinely loving story about their child? No, this is different. Your person likely spent years gassing on about a variety of topics, ultimately landed on child-related monologues because they put her in the best light and she has an unlimited amount of source material.

Good luck and Namaste! [/quote]

How annoying to throw "Namaste" around as if it is your culture, Karen. [/quote]
