As members of the human race, its customary to communicate and speak to others in a social environment

This includes the act of speaking and interacting with others you may cross paths with in daily life

In various situations, such as sitting next to someone at a bar or restaurant, or when purchasing goods and services, verbal communication is the preferred method

Typically, a verbal conversation will ensue, and each party engages in what commonly is referred to as a ‘dialogue’

This scenario often requires the ability to utilize certain conversational tools such as humor, intelligence, literacy, authenticity, manners, and most importantly, comprehension and listening skills

Ultimately, chance encounters in most environments can potentially evolve into the discovery of common interests, which can often lead to short term and/or long term friendships

A friendly, outgoing demeanor when interacting with other members of a civilized society has historically been the preferred method of maximizing effective and engaging communication
If you want to roam around casinos and bars in Vegas for a week and not gamble that is on you. You are probably the only guy right now at the Palms doing that, maybe ever. What a bizarre way to waste time and money. Who the F goes to Vegas and walks around privately admonishing people for having a good time. Then on a dime strikes up conversations with old AP reporters?

Look man, whatever. You want to hang out in Vegas and roam around filming people all day praising yourself for not drinking, have at it. Good luck on your next 38 mile hike on the Oregon coastline.
