  • i think people listen when i speak; most of the time, yes. i do know a few people who don't listen to anyone, ever. they're only thinking or speaking, and often times interrupting. in general, i try to keep it short with most people. there's just a few individuals i like to gab with on a regular basis.

    Everyone that deletes their account shows up as 'Benedict Arnold'. No telling who it was.

  • Usually they do, and if they don't,  I just fake that they do and keep talking ... Or I punch them in the throat. Depends on my mood at the time ;) : don't punch people in the throat cos it's not nice And it's probably not legal.

    I don't care if they listen as long as they don't try to talk.

    Yes. They do listen, most of the time...
    ... because, I don't talk too much, rather listen more than talk...

    Yes.  I've done a good bit of speaking and teaching.  I enjoy speaking in front of groups.

    My son his girlfriend, our family friend and my sons two year old son all live with me. When I speak they have no reason not to listen. I listen to them too. Its just common curtsy.
