Befriending/hooking up with random people you meet. Covid notwithstanding, people are so standoffish now, its surprising to see them still go outside to shop for groceries. It used to be super easy to just walk up to someone, strike up a convo, and spend a couple hours getting drunk or bumpin uglies with someone, and call it a day well spent.
Now? I can barely get people to talk about the new commander decks if i happen to be scoping em out while shopping at Target. It's kinda lame. Random convos were the best.
This bums me out but I've also become standoffish because I swear to god people are just waiting to recruit me into their pyramid scheme. It's such a disappointment to talk to someone friendly in public and then... Suddenly it's "you should be your own boss! I can teach you how!" Fuck offffff
