Talker or Listener.

Most time when you meet people you will come across people who will talk the ears off a deaf man. Or you will find someone who just wants to listen to what you are saying? So what are you? A Talker or a Listener?

Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God.

Listener, until I start talking, because then you can't stop me.

I'm pretty introverted unless I'm around close friends, though. So most of the time, I'm a listener.

Listener, mostly. I'm not very talkative, unless I have something to say...

...Yeah, so more Listener, less Talker.

I, also, am a listener. Cuz I try to be there when friends need me. I don't have many problems myself, and when I do have them, I tend to keep them to myself, and not bother others with my problems.

Listener when I'm around new people, or not particularly comfortable with the situation. Otherwise a major talker. I've often had people remark that they're surprised at the change from quiet mouse to blabbermouth. In fact, I have made the pointless anecdote such a large part of my repertoire that I've been compared to the chick from American Pie (and I now often begin stories with "One time, on bandcamp..."

Bwaha! That's funny, since I am known for random outbursts of words, and I use that line sometimes as well. For example, when someone asks: "Has anyone done anything fun lately?", and then it stays quiet, I always say "One time, at bandcamp..." and then we all have a laugh.

Random outbursts are great!

I prefer to listen because I rarely have anything interesting to tell people, but yes I can talk when I must (hence why I put bit of both, strange that )

I'm abit of both.

I talk alot, and I can talk about nothing for a while. [When I wa sin Belgium, me and my friend talked solidly about Bonbons for 20 minutes. {Long running inside joke}] I can talk.

But I listen, if someone needs to talk to me I'll shut up or I can just listen... It's weird like that.

I do a bit of both, but I'm more of a listener. I'll listen to problems and stuff and give dodgy advice, It's fun.

I take it seriously!

It's just my advice is simple, predictable and practically useless.

That's you summed up in 5 words.

But yeah, just because you're generally a listener doesn't mean you're doomed to give great advice.

I can't stand silence. If I'm ever with a friend (say in a car or something), I'll always be the one to say something random in order to spark some akward stilted conversation.

I am most definately a talker. I'm always ranting and complaining about something, or talking about what's going on between me and my friends, forums, comics, stories, games, shows, etc. I think that's why my parents started buying "Extra-Strength" aspirin.

....That's why I have imaginary friends.

That's me too. Exactly, I'd say.

I also have the ability to make the most awkward of silences and conversations, a talent I'd rather live without.

Clearly I'm just getting comfortable with my new friends in SLO as I managed to completely freak them out with stories about my family last night. (such as the time my mum was discussing the comparitive dick sizes between my father and her then boyfriend).

Oh, and I realised a few of them had foot phobias when they started retching after I put my big toe in my mouth.

Mostly a listener. I like to take in info and then discuss it.

By the way do any of you hate when your in a conversation and the other person wont shut up or let you talk?
