remember social obligation?
pretending to be interested in things you aren't. caring what others think of you and acting accordingly. pretending most of your waking hours, just to appease people who don't have to. family gatherings, educational facilities, work atmospheres. it is probably one of the first things we are taught as children. limitations and conformity. without them who knows what would happen?

if we weren't conforming to pretend talk, we'd be stumbling down the road talking to ourselves like children.
i was talking to myself aloud. i used to do that in public a lot when i was a child. now i avoid deviant, crazy-person behavior.
homeless people talk to themselves. they also seem the most comfortable of all talking to strangers, even if it is just asking for money (granted, out of need Only, probably).
