Thanks, lori!
I think I will cafe-press myself a t-shirt that says "I'm too thinky to listen to you".
I would buy it on a ... magnet? That would be awesome in my office.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

You know, I have a suspicion that most psychiatrists are extroverts... hence the presumption about introverts.
Am I the only one who's noticed that Colbert's new word in the opening credits is... FREEM ??1? Huh?

Modern definitions aren't as flagrantly prejudiced, but introversion is still stigmatized. Given the option, most people would prefer to be extroverts. Punch the word "introversion" into Amazon.com and you come up with a list of self-help books like: Introvert to Extrovert and The Highly Sensitive Person. Look up "extroversion" and you get a whole lotta nada.
But all of those self-satisfied extroverts out there might be interested to learn that recent scientific findings suggest that introversion is not a psychological disorder--it's a physiological trait with some distinct advantages.
There's an excellent book that deals with this very topic.
