我在帕岸岛的这个青旅，室友太爱small talk真的有给我造成一些社交压力。

我入住第一天，一回寝室五个不同国家的女孩问你信息，需要你简单的自我介绍，然后她们又挨个跟我介绍自己。（我脑子不好使真的记不住她们的名字）非常努力记住了她们的脸。（你们也知道亚洲人看白人也脸盲）在路上或者派对上遇到还要打招呼，并且装作惊喜的样子（双方）

每天回寝室第一件事就是每个人都会用期待的眼神看着你：（声调上扬）how was your day?开始我会非常认真的说，后来发现她们对我的一天也没那么感兴趣。类似于中国北方人见面第一句：吃了吗？

大家并不想知道你真的吃了啥，我认真回答相当于报了遍菜名。人家只是礼貌地表达一下对你的关心，也不用太当回事儿。

面对这种情况，掌握主动权是至关紧要的。见面先问她们：（一定要记得语调上扬）（星星眼加分项）How was your day? What are your plans for tomorrow？

她们巴拉巴拉。统一回答：（眼睛一定要睁大）really？amazing？wow～

然后她们会问你巴拉巴拉，统一回答：（表情略微无奈）It's like you, but not as good as your day.

既满足她们虚荣心，又显得人很nice。

保持距离但是也散发一些善意，非常适合我这种走中庸路线的老中人。

You’re interviewing Declan Rice and a bunch of kids try to get his attention for a chat during filming and he goes over to meet them. I’ve worked with Dec on so many different occasions now and he ALWAYS makes time for fans. He remembers what it was like for him as a youngster waiting on a player’s autograph or picture and how a small gesture can make someone’s day… One of the nicest and most down-to-earth people in the game ✨

引用老拜登的话，我们国家面对的问题不是我们多老了，而是我们想法是不是老了。
My fellow Americans, the issue facing our nation isn't how old we are -- it's how old our ideas are," "Hate, anger, revenge, retribution are the oldest of ideas. But you can't lead America with ancient ideas that only take us back."
