Do you talk to yourself in public?. I went to the library the other day and there were so many people walking around talking away to themselves! It made my day to watch this girl on the escalator, muttering away to herself, having an argument, then as she stepped off, she gave this huge smile at herself and looked really pleased with herself!
It was wonderful!. Have you ever been caught in that position or seen someone doing it?..

I talk to myself all the time! Call me crazy but it helps me make decisions, because I am so indecisive and saying it out loud brings the argument to a closure instead of having it in my head, revolving around and around not getting anywhere. And yes I am afraid I been caught doing it, it is kind of embarrassing but hey I just smile and go on about my business. Its a good way also to reason with yourself when you want to do something that you know is wrong but right at the same time. You give yourself the pros and cons. =S

lol
I seriously try to avoid talking to myself in public... I think I'm successful, but how would I know? Let me know if you see me making a point and there's no one there. When I'm alone- all the time... I'm sure it enhances my productivity, creativity, blah blah blah blah... I might even find out something I never knew before- what a great resource the mind is!

And, Yes, I see it all the time on the streets- public transportation is a great place for seeing all sorts of stuff.

A lot of that nowadays is due to the very small BlueTooth earpieces, which make people look like idiots who are talking to themselves, when in fact they are having a telephone conversation with someone.

But I do talk to myself...a lot. I once thought it was a result of excessive drug use. Now I know it, hehe. But who cares...I like being my own best friend and companion.

Talking to ourselves like having a full-on conversation with myself, no. Sometimes I think outloud or give myself a little pep talk or whatever out loud. You can't really have a conversation with yourself though....unless you have a loose screw maybe :)~

I sometimes talk to myself especially when I cook. Are you sure these people weren't talking on their cell phone with the ear piece thing on.
