    Does that work? I’ve tried:

    • Pretending I’m hearing disabled(problematic, I know)
    • Telling them to eat shit and die
    • Speaking really fast and fiercely in a made up language
    • Keep asking “What was that?” until they stop trying

    By far the most successful was when walking home with a bag of meal worms(for my pet tarantula,) I dumped them on his lap and ran away.

      Sometimes if i nail the acting. Im pretty good at uncanny.

      I always want to kick them in the balls and then smile genuinely, but only ever did that once.

      You’re my muse re:worms

        Nice. A kick to the balls is the only appropriate reaction if you don’t have worms. And worms are cheap!
