people I'd like to meet

While driving to see my dad in the hospital last July, I listened to Lorde's Pure Heroine on the Passat's CD player. Not sure why J got it out from her library, but we both liked what we had heard of hers on the radio.
I'm not a big fan of music. I don't hate music, I just don't think about it much. Up until last Thanksgiving, I spent my afternoons and car drives listening to talk radio. I think there's a limit on how much preaching to the choir I can tolerate, and I reached it when nothing said was new. Being comfortable with the status quo is fine if it's not boring. Nonetheless, I can't drive in silence for three hours, hence roadtrip with Lorde.

So the opening line to Tennis Court has a certain meaning to me.
The problem with being bored with how people talk is that I don't care to meet new people. Regardless, people don't care to talk to me. I limit my interaction on Facebook to family and friends. I find that they seem to not update their status to things of my interest much. I must be boring, for my updates sans pics of my family go without comment or the like. I don't know many people on Twitter, but those that I do, I am moreso inclined to interact.
Subtweeting aside, most tweets can be a conversation starter if the character limit is used. Tweets are short and sweet, and there's no being bogged down with boredom when you follow a collection of varying viewpoints on nights that aren't flooded with inane red carpet nonsense from the various award shows for the uber 1% or sporting events like March Madness that are silly to me.
Not everyone does Twitter. I'm annoyed that Camille Paglia doesn't seem to utilize Twitter. Maybe she does now, but last I checked, she was not to be found. I guess that means she's one of the few people I'd have to meet in person to interact. I'm not in the mood to watch her speak, but I find her views interesting and mostly well thought out. I don't have to agree with her, but her arguments are neither simply cliche nor closed ended talking points. She's not boring.
