What do I say?! (That typical shy stuff . . .)?

Question

When people state obvious facts about me being shy, quiet, or not talking . . .

OR

ask why I'm shy, what should I say?

I never seem to have no comment to those people, but sometimes I think I should.

Like today, a boy randomly pulled my hoody attached to my jacket over my face.

I turned around and said, "meow!"

He replied, "you know people who say 'meow' are crazy, but people who hiss (like me) are insane?"

I didn't have nothing to say, but then he interupted my thoughts and added, "am I insane?"

I shrugged.

"Hey, you didn't answer my question," he reminded me.

"Maybe 'cause you're messing with me . . .," I said.

(I know that was a stupid answer, but I couldn't think of anything!)

And that's when the random conversation ended.

I just need help.

I already set my default phrase as "meow" because it's random and interesting!

Answer 1

Hahaha you are adorable. My "default phrase" is "Go back to where you came from."


I think I'll switch to "meow." Maybe that way less people will slap me across the face.

Answer 2

good for you. it is ok to be shy. your answer was good because you stated the obvious. people overlook that a lot. meow right back at ya!

Answer 3

tell them "maybe they should try it" if they are a jerk like that guy...but meow...idunno...sounds pretty weird, kinda like Spongebob's pet snail
I've always wanted to tell people that ask jerks "why don't you talk?" that "why would I want to talk to YOU?"
