Note to self: things that aren't part of civilised conversation

Note to self: etiquette dictates the following not to be objects of proper conversation, especially with new people:

1. My interest in academia
2. My PhD thesis
3. My interest in classical music and the nuances of Schoenberg and Chopin
4. My interest in black metal
5. My interest in bleakness
6. My interest in classical literature
7. My interest in sick internet videos or youtube nonsense
