My worst social weakness

[Prøphet]

Is when someone is self deprecating or makes any kind of self deprecating joke

(Usually older people / professional people do this)

How tf am I supposed to respond politely without making things awkward

You fucking asshole why do you force me into this position where I have to feign performative sympathy like a normie even though I don’t give a shit

Literally forcing me to expend my energy being an actor for you to lift you back up after knocking yourself down

Usually I just say noooo and laugh it off but I know that looks autistic asf, but genuinely what else can I do, I physically cant bring myself to do the whole concerned foid acting routine

I just look at them deadpan then go back to whatever it was I was doing without acknowledging it.

Deadass makes me want to punch myself from embarrassment whenever I fuck that up too

Same, it’s usually when someone joking comes up to me and insults me (only surface level, eg like “fuck you” when greeting me or some bs) and I just don’t know what to say back or I just straight up fucking insult them
Lowk gotta be nd

if someone is bitching and you want them to stop simply saying "I got problems of my own" shuts them up.

I let them bitch because being a good listener enders themn to you
