    I’ll try to assimilate and attempt to not make too much small talk with the neighbors, if I end up up there, but I am midwestern so I’m probably not going to be able to quit the stuff entirely. We may be annoying, but we’re almost as handy as Germans, so y’all should be able to learn to live around a few of us.

      In all seriousness, I was exaggerating, if you do a little bit small talk with the neighbors who don’t run away when they see other neighbors, you will fitt right in. Maybe even be a recipient of small talk if you figure something they like talking about

      I’m an introverted guy with ADHD, so I avoid smalltalk, but if my kids are playing with your kids, and I had copious amounts of coffee, I’ll have a word vomit, and my wife will text me to shut up about Greek mythology or whatever the other person mentioned first
