Why do people say this in the middle of an already lengthy story? They go on and on about how they lost a button off their coat on the way to the bus, and yadda yadda yadda, and on and on. Kill me now please. 😞

It is quite annoying, but worse still is where people say "oh you dont want to know". That has got to be the most annoying thing anybody can say, if I didnt want to know I wouldnt even be having the conversation in the first place.

..because when the button falls to the ground and rolls over to a small child on the stoop down the street he picks it up and curiousty is aroused and he becomes a chemist who makes a drug that (oh, i just saw a string hanging from my coat ) and then he saves your daughters life ( oh, i just split some coffee..you know i do that alot these days ) and oh, yes, she is very happy then...so she calls you on the phone and yadda, yadda, yadda..and you say back, yadda, yadda, yadda and tell her all about your trip to the dry cleaners, and your doctor, ( and she sais to herself, "oh, please kill me"πŸ˜‰....

you wouldn't believe me even if i told you but to make a long story short it goes like this, see, oh forget it, i know you aren't really interested, are you? whatever. never mind. sorry to mention it. i know you don't really care. who care's any more? certainly not anyone i know. it doesn't matter anyway, does it? what do you think? come on, you can tell me. later, not right now though. i'm busy and need to move on to other threads. bye.
