"It's not the persistent lack of sunlight or freezing temperatures that bother me - it's the crowds I can't stand."

That party went well.

"I think I'm having pre-traumatic stress disorder."

'Who wants to be examined first?'

'Welcome to the first meeting of the Shy Men Club.'

Nervous at a party.

"I know there's safety in numbers, but I suffer from enochlophobia: Can you help me?"

"Let's welcome our new member, Bob!" "You, too!" "'You, too'? Idiot!"

"It's just a little device I use to help relieve the anxiety from meeting new people."

"I invited a few friends over. Don’t worry – you can still be miserable."

'But what if the author doesn't want to meet us?'

"This was the closest I could get to being invisible."

Another way to keep an empty seat beside you on the train.

D*mn it.

'Hello... fear of greeting people at holiday seasons hotline.'

'I'm sure we haven't met. I use a telephoto lens.'

'Remember, our hosts are from a swing state, so no political babble or they may snap!'

'It must be the burglars, Manfred, you know how they frighten him!'

Out of my comfort zone

"Spider! Kill it! Kill it!"
