 YIKES! MISSED CONNECTIONI am in such awe of you.. Female librarian with mermaid blue hair at the [redacted] library. More then just a bookworm... You are a flower amongst the trees. When others treat the place like it's only a computer lab, public restroom, or teen daycare. You bring warmth and kindness while working on group projects, being a mentor to the next generation, picking out books on subjects that fascinate that wonderful mind - fueling that imagination, creativity, and that you are passionately interested in sharing with others. In this Netflix/blogging/Facebook digital era - i find that pursuit of knowledge greatly humbling. Would you be interested in a friendly intellectual conversation over coffee at [redacted]? Perhaps a vegan meal at [redacted]? Or a favorite book from [redacted]? It would be my treat for a few minutes of your time and as a thankful gesture for all you do for us patrons of the library. Please message me, dear lady of literacy. Zoinks, [redacted] P.S. Sorry if I caused any concern or alarm. I've tried to say hello or strike up an introduction before while checking books out, but just found this weird awkwardness each time of either myself being in a hurry to get to work or catching you in the middle of multitasking with several patrons at once. Since I like to write.. I thought that maybe my written words could express better what was lacking in person. But now that it's been a week later - yeah, I see the full weirdness and slight creepiness of the gesture - but I swear my intentions were purely friendly. Please let me explain. On some of my random trips to the library I've been a witness to situations of you and your co-workers having to deal with occasionally grumpy, mean, or verbal abusive people. Seeing that disrespect, but then your all's will power to remain pleasant and smiling, I admired that strength. It got me thinking about how your all's position, along with that of teachers - for example, are both jobs that don't get the full amount of thanks that is deserved. I wanted to be one of the new voices to say "Thank You" - but I feel that just the words alone are not enough. Besides being an Artist, Poet, and Musician.. I work as a manager in the hospitality field, and can also relate to receiving mistreatment from the same people your trying to help. It can be confusing and disheartening to deal with on a daily basis. That's where the idea of coffee - a vegan meal - or book shopping came to me. Because going to a coffeehouse and getting a hot drink and pastry on a cold day, sharing a good meal & conversation with a friend, and picking up a book that I can look forward to reading on my day off - are all things that I find greatly comforting during a rough week. If your still cool with the concept, I would like to make a better introduction in person, and be honored to hangout as friends. Please write to me and ask any question you may have. Just like the periodicals you gracefully put on the shelf - I am also an open book.

That's a weird thing I've noticed some socially awkward people do, I guess it has to do with being nervous about being called out for being awkward, so they apologize for it but that makes it into a way bigger deal than it would have been. The first part of the post isn't really offensive at all, it just makes it very clear the type of person who is writing it, which isn't a bad thing since the sought librarian would surely know what she was getting into.

I've noticed that, too. In fact, it used to be me. Is there a name for it? Edit: I don't mean I used to the "this troper" or anything. I'm not a troper at all; I don't even visit the website. I only know about tropers from Something Awful. Well, I used to visit TV Tropes because it was interesting, but I didn't read the forums. I did read the examples and try to count many of them were anime. Anime is pretty bad, right? Unless you like it. It's okay, just not my style. But I've never been a troper. I may have done things that qualify as a "troper tale" but since I don't frequent the site any longer, I wouldn't even know it. "Crowning Moment of Awesome" Ha Ha! But, yeah. I used to do the awkward follow-up when I thought I said or did something that could in anyway possibly be misinterpreted. It's dumb and makes you look worse. A simple faux pas can be overlooked, may even seem charming in the right circumstances, but when you just keep digging it makes you seem spergy or that you don't understand how humans work. Crap. I said "spergy". There is nothing wrong with asperger's symdrome, although I think they just call it "on the spectrum" now (do you know?). But. Yeah. Humans and human emotions are complicated but all you have to do is put yourself in their shoes. How would you feel if some weirdo tried an awkward conversation starter and then just rambled on and on after you didn't give them the response they expected. Like, "hello? is this thing on?" You need to smile, to be able to laugh at yourself (but not like, out loud; that'd be weird). And remember, the person you are interacting with? They are a human being just like you.

I think alt med people are one of the saddest rabbit holes to peer into, since a lot of them have a story like that guy with his dead kid son  Rather than attributing the kid's death to cancer that was so bad it persisted despite all those medical interventions, he blames the interventions themselves. I feel like 90% of alt med people started because of a dead kid.

My uncle died after a long bout with lymphoma and near the end he and my aunt tried everything. Everything. A while after he passed she became a Scientologist. I think there may have been some cause and effect there.

I think there may have been some cause and effect there. Ouch. I always feel bad about people that get sucked into cults like that, especially Scientology. It all starts as self help and therapy for past traumas, but before you know it, you're taking out a 3rd mortgage and scraping money from literally anywhere to buy into the scheme and severing all contacts with anyone who speaks against your newfound salvation. At least alt-med people typically don't have to endure that poo poo. My first landlord was also an alt-med weirdo. Though, he directed it at his dog. His wife divorced him and literally all he kept was the duplex and his dog. You could tell from a 5 minute conversation with him that he truly believed his 13 year old, grossly overweight shepherd mutt would live forever if he kept giving it whatever the hell the supplement was that he had.

I was dating a girl whose mom used to be a constitutional lawyer, and then had some sort of break-down and got so far into it she was one of the personal dressers for some nutter selling magical house-cleaning. I think that people with the tendency will eventually find a group that's sufficiently cult-like, since that's the only way they get a compact answer for everything.
