What would happen if you woke up tomorrow and everyone you tried to talk to that day ignored you?
I'd probably think it was pretty amusing, at first, then I might start wondering if it's not a sign that the nation has become more accustomed to awesomeness or just more broad minded, so I can now just be myself without having to keep explaining it or justifying it or just generally being stared at and called a weirdo.
But, I'd be curious about why... I mean, if for example, I said "John, take these keys, you'll need them to get into the shop", and John ignored me and walked off, I'd think "hmm, that's rather... odd behaviour... is John in a self-sabotage mood today?"
But if I said, as I tend to do, thinking aloud to myself really, and waiting to see what the ether bounces back to me, cos that's how I think, "so I wonder if you can actually get from Paris to Prague on foot in two weeks?" and everyone ignored me, I'd look around to see what the vibe is. If it's "we're ignoring you cos we hate you and think you're retarded", then I'd shrug and figure, please yourselves. If it's "we're totally unaware of your presence" I'd think "what, everyone deaf?" or if it's "we're ignoring you cos we're too absorbed in other stuff", I'd think fair enough, at least they're not having a go at me for being weird. Actually, I might not even notice that they're ignoring me, cos I was just thinking aloud, and i'd just carry on my train of thought uninterrupted, though perhaps a little poorer for the lack of external input.
But, moreover, I'd be thinking, "hey, why is the ether not providing me with answers and inspiration? it usually does - is it ill or something? cat got its tongue?"
