That would never be me. I'm constantly talking to myself. People think I'm crazy, but I think I'm just bursting with ideas!

[–] BetaBlake@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Yeah I talk to myself and my cat way too much, I actually talk more when I'm alone than I do when someone else is around.

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 8 points 1 month ago

I get lots of questioning looks in the grocery stores cause I didn't make a list and have to tell myself, audible, that I didn't need the cookies.

[–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

It would be me, except I swear a lot under my breath when I run into problems with software or things. In two languages simultaneously, even.

Dude you're not alone, talk to myself all the time. When I am caught I just tell people I was needing an expert opinion. Its gets a good laugh and people don't think I'm crazy. Agatha Christina would play out the dialog in her novels to herself outloud. Most people with an active imagination does this.

Nah, I talk the most when I am alone.

[–] MissJinx@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Do people really not talk to themselfs? They should! It's not "crazy" if you know there isn't another person there. But it's ok to think out loud. It's even good because sometimes you can hear how you sound and change. I like it and this is a type of self therapy

What do you guys talk about?

[–] MDCCCLV@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Cinematography and geopolitical effects of mountainous terrain rainfall on world building stories. Also making ways of tricking people into reading the book about potatoes.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I'm open to being tricked into reading about potatoes...

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

mostly about how much I hate myself and I'm worthless, but in a casual, non mean way.

[–] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

You should cut your face off and eat it.

Not many people have done that so you'd no longer be worthless, and you'd be a hideous monstrosity and hideous monstrosities have shock value so you'd have value, too.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Great advice

[–] Figlizard@thelemmy.club 8 points 1 month ago

This is why I stopped by. Cat on my friend. PssssPssss

[–] Paper_Phrog@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I cannot relate. I live with my GF but even if she leaves for the night I'll start talking to my self somehow.

[–] galaxy_nova@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Step one, get a girlfriend

[–] ignotum@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's too many steps, I'll just stick to talking with the voices in my head

You lucky BS bastards... And I have to answer the same question to my kid every 5 seconds.

[–] Adudethatis@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 month ago

For months at a time unfortunately! Lmfao- Use the phone+ call friends and family- people aren't around forever

[–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You don't talk to yourself?

[–] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 5 points 1 month ago

Of course I do, sometimes I need expert advice!

[–] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Aside from work, most of the talking I do at home is joking around with my cat. He has no idea what the fuck is going on but I crack myself up and he meows his little heart out like he's watching John Mulaney

[–] PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@feddit.uk 11 points 1 month ago

Lived alone during COVID.

Went months

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 1 month ago

Glad I'm not that weirdo. I'll still talk to my cat.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

4, because I work partly remote so there have been occasions where I have no reason to leave the house or see another person for four days. I’m introverted so it’s kind of nice, but it’s probably not healthy

Edit: and my dog is not mine: I share custody with my ex (it’s actually her dog) so that’s only half a week

No because I have a job and leave my house.

[–] W3dd1e@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago

I have a remote work job. Sometimes,I don’t talk to another human for many days. It doesn’t bother me too much:

I talk to my dogs. Honestly, my dogs have probably kept me alive and well as much as I keep them alive and well.

[–] Aneb@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

This is why cats exist

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 month ago

I always talk to my cats

[–] Jimjim@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

when I was a bachelor. what bachelor hasn't.

[–] zebidiah@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago

Nope, I talk to my dog and three times a day we walk around the block and inevitably someone will wave and say hello

[–] Aqarius@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Also, you apparently have a sore throat. Who knew?

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I solve this problem by occasionally yelling at bafflingly stupid current events, as recounted by various youtubers/podcasts.

Gotta keep up that ability to insult on the fly.

Stretch those creativity brain pathways, in addition to your vocal cords.

Either that or cursing myself out for writing bafflingly bad code, from time to time.

... Less insanely, I also sing, and... have neighbors I talk to, go outside from time to time, chat up randos.

I have an internal monologue nearly all the time.

Sometimes I just outwardly verbalize it.

[–] banazir@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

I'm highly reclusive, so this happens a lot.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

If I didn't talk to myself out loud or use voice-to-text on my phone to leave internet comments, I'd be on day 5 of vocal silence right now.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 4 points 1 month ago

Back when I was single, that happened often during my vacations

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Got too many vocal cats I talk back to. Don't think I can go an hour unless I'm sleeping.

[–] LiveLM@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

They don't even need to be vocal, sometimes they're just sitting there and I go "¿¿¿QUÉ PASA???"

I don't even speak Spanish man

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 3 points 1 month ago

I like speaking farci or erdu to mine(not a brag, I'm not fluent in either)
