The Conversation Hijacker
I hate this guy. Everybody’s got a type of person they call…that guy. The number of that guys depend on how many people you deal with on a daily basis. I think I have like six. The guy who constantly screams and whines over the headset when you’re playing online games or the people who scream and yell about their positions during an argument with NO factual basis at all.
Then there’s the conversation hijacker. This is the guy who always cuts into your conversation with someone else. You know who he is and everybody knows someone like that. He’s the guy who talks much louder than you ever would, he’s always dumber than you, and he’s always talking about stuff you could care less about. He’s the guy who knows you you’re talking to, but hangs around them more often. The ironic thing is that you’re not sure if he’s more important than you are. Most of the time, he’s not. And it’s always the guy who couldn’t be more bored with what you’re talking about. He’s the guy who thinks he’s much more important than he actually is.
He always tries to make you feel like he’s your friend…when you just want this jerk to go away.
I may have to put a character like that in my novel.
Speaking of which, I’ve mostly hashed out the direction I want my story to go…now I just have to get it all written in my notes. The problem is I’m trying to finish the other story (not for profit) I’m writing so I can focus like a laser beam on my novel: Princess of the Neptune Children (tentative)
Well, I may change the title. The story is mostly about a pair of sixteen year old childhood friends who live across the street from each other, but both have life threatening diseases. The only problem is that the boy doesn’t know he has a genetic defect connected to vampirism. There’s a lot more, but that’s all I’m giving away.
