keeping conversations going when no one else is into it.
people who speak in very self-deprecating ways to an uncomfortable extent.
Not noticing when they are telling an irrelevant story to a service worker or stranger.
One-upping.
Taking their mistakes too seriously.
Not being able to pick up when someone else is completely disinterested in what you are talking about
Being purposefully weird and random
If you tell a joke and no one laughs, don't repeat it again immediately to make sure everyone heard. Hell, don't repeat it again for the next 10 years.
Not making eye contact!
talking about themselves (or their work) nonstop without acknowledging that there's another person in the conversation
A mistake I see that socially awkward people make is assuming that everyone DOESN'T like them. And then the cycle becomes awkward, rather than warm and inviting.
Letting themselves be spoken over or ignored.
Not knowing how to have a conversation, so many guys I work with just tell me things about their lives constantly and never bother to ask about me or my life.
understand who you're talking to and make the conversation match the relationship. How you talk to a stranger, service worker, close friend, SO, and family, are all different - context is everything and what's perfectly acceptable or even amicable to say to one person is not acceptable to say to another.
If someone tells a joke, bask in it. Don't repeat what they said and then laugh at it, that's just weird; we all just heard it, too
Laughing while speaking, especially if you're not saying anything humorous.
Just copied/pasted. I could keep going, but I'm not going to.

What a bunch of judgmental perfect fuckers - the rest of Reddit are fags.
