I practice the most unsettling smile i can, and do it in really jerky movements. Wheeze while i do. Talk on both the inhale and exhale while it's maintained.

Does that work? I've tried:

  • Pretending I'm hearing disabled(problematic, I know)
  • Telling them to eat shit and die
  • Speaking really fast and fiercely in a made up language
  • Keep asking "What was that?" until they stop trying

By far the most successful was when walking home with a bag of meal worms(for my pet tarantula,) I dumped them on his lap and ran away.

Sometimes if i nail the acting. Im pretty good at uncanny.

I always want to kick them in the balls and then smile genuinely, but only ever did that once.

You're my muse re:worms

Nice. A kick to the balls is the only appropriate reaction if you don't have worms. And worms are cheap!
