Pro-tip: Asking permission to interrupt to say your bit goes down much much better than just interjecting

    I’ve made it pretty normal for me to simply leave. Pretty much all of my friends and associates know that I don’t really say goodbye, I just leave.

    Whether that applies to a group conversation or an event. My logic is simple, people who announce they’re leaving, IMO, are looking for a reason to stay half the time. Everyone coos over it, like awww don’t go, blah blah, fake placating talk about how much they like having you there even though they haven’t said more than ten words to you the whole time…

    Fuck that noise. I want to leave, so I leave. I always make a point to tell at least one person that I’m going so that if anyone asks, they can say I left, simply for informational reasons.
