Once, my neighbor’s kitten was trying to play with a possum. I used a folded up chair to try gently nudging the possum into leaving. It rolled over and held its paw as if it were broken, and I felt awful. Then I realized, oh, that’s why they call it playing possum.
I’m an introvert who actually likes going to parties (as long as they’re not TOO LOUD). I can usually find a fellow introvert there to sit off to the side & people-watch & talk with. Some of the best times have been when that fellow introvert is the host’s cat (which made people think I was drunk on my butt even though I wasn’t – staying with ginger ale so I could drive home), but I’ve been known to get into such deep convos with fellow human introverts that we end up being the last ones there (& helping with cleanup, of course!)…

He did’nt have a cigarette to suck on or a phone to swipe. Felt too akward to converse.

Reminds me of the character in Jurassic World who is running while keeping his 2 margaritas from spilling. Anyone know who played that character?

I’m outgoing and sociable, but most parties finally end about 45 minutes after I’m ready to leave.

And didn’t spill a drop so you know he’s faking it.

I took a nap on the floor at a wetting-down party in Japan. Next morning, worst sake headache of all time. Gave up drinking as a hobby.

The giveaway was that he wasn’t going to spill his wine if he wasn’t really dead.

He does have the presence of mind to keep his wine glass vertical while he’s horizontal

I’ve done that a time or two. Even dozed off while holding a beverage. Was woken up when somebody tried taking the drink out of my hand.
