in Chit-Chat
When a complete stranger, either online or in real life, approaches you, unsolicited, and is overly nice to you, for no apparent reason, are you:

A. Cautious, and curious as to what scam they are trying to pull

B. Delighted, that the world is full of such super-dee-duper nice people

C. Annoyed, because overly happy people are clearly annoying

D. Fearful, because they're setting you up for an assault and are very likely a carrier of multiple diseases

    Gotta go with A. I seem to always be on the defensive in situations like that.

    If the person looks like a creeper. Cautious

    If the person is cute. Delighted.

    If the person is like me. Annoyed.

    If the person is holding a gun pointed towards me. Fearful

    Annoyed, I don't mind genuinely nice people but I'd take cold hard brutal honesty over faux-'You're awesome'-nicety any day of the week! I can handle the truth! All of this pretend-niceness is just another buffer that people seem to need these days in this PC, don't call a spade a spade world!

    sod off and get buggered.

    Oh, you mean when, I , OK, never mind. I'm generally distrustful of "overly nice" folks, they usually want something.

    Me too. It's a curse. I'm hoping to one day come out of my shell.
