A lot of it depends on context. You're not really told where the city in the Matrix is located, but based on the skyscrapers and freeways in part 2 it feels really LA-ish. Filmed in Sydney. But of course "The Matrix" has no physical location so it doesn't matter.
Usually I see them because there's a super flaky user who creates new accounts, makes a bunch of posts in a variety of groups, then self deletes their account for some reason orphaning their posts.
So I get to remove a bunch of otherwise worthwhile posts because the user killed their account. Not sure what they think they're accomplishing.
I get it, I'm the introvert too, but it helps to understand where they are coming from...
For them, these inane conversations are likely their pressure/stress release. Medical gigs can be pretty high pressure and everyone reacts to that differently.
I've only witnessed it from the patient side, but I get where it's coming from.
When I had my first heart attack, it was just after Thanksgiving and the cardiac ward was decorated for Thanksgiving. They had these "Guess the heart rythm" charts made out of tinsel, and I got to see them all as I walked the ward after surgery.
(Bonus, immediately after open heart surgery they make you get up and walk around multiple times a day.)
The chart right by the nurses station? I wish I had taken a photo of it... tinsel flatline ending in an angel. LOL.
We had one group of three kids and their parents, that was it. I blame the rain storm. We got hit with an "atmospheric river" that started about 2 bours before it got dark. 😭
