[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s you.  Not the vegetables.[/quote]

[quote=Anonymous]Because then they’d have to interact with nosy, judgmental, gossipy you. They are rightly gauging that you take notes on your neighbors, speculate and judge them, and even run to the Internet to try to drum up more speculation and gossip about them with total strangers.[/quote]

I mean, yeah. In the space of six or seven sentences I already picked up that OP is over-invested and strange, and I don't want her having my contact information.

Can you imagine the email if you didn't order anything for a few weeks? Christ, no thanks. I have better options,a ll things considered. [/quote]

I read the post differently. This isnt a commitment, more like on an impromptu basis.  Sounds like a great setup to be honest. [/quote]

Right. But she'd have my contact information one way or another -- email, phone number, address for delivery, something -- and eww, no.

I am willing to pay more not to have the instability of this kind of one-on-one interaction with people who smell a little "unhinged," in DCUM parlance. [/quote]

Seriously, you sound like a Grinch. [b]Nothing the OP said seems weird to me. [/b]It makes sense that the farm would prefer to deliver a larger order so what the OP is proposing sounds like a win-win for everyone. [/quote]

Really?  "If you don't procure vegetables in the way I suggest, I will assume you, and everyone else to whom I made the offer, doesn't like vegetables" doesn't sound weird to you?

OK, maybe not weird.  Heart-stoppingly stupid, perhaps?  [/quote]

"Nobody wants to be my friend. Why do Americans hate friends?"[/quote]

No need to get defensive. [/quote]

You are right. It is very defensive. People pick up on that and back away from it.

See how that works?[/quote]
