In the hopes of striking up a conversation, I asked someone, “Oh, have you heard that elephants can swim?”
“What are you talking about?”
«showed a video of baby elephant swimming, or emailed an article about said swimming elephant, or just talked a bit more about when and where I saw an elephant swimming»>
“Oh yeah, I heard/saw/read that.”
«interminable silence»
WTF? Why can’t people keep their end of conversations? Good thing I have twitter and a blog, so at least I can entertain myself.
