well, thanks for adding reason 
 
"J:  PREFERENCE FOR A MEANINGFUL LIFE:  most folks can't be  bothered by 
meaningless, empty, and fake gestures such as insincere greetings  that might be 
misconstrued as so-called friendliness.  The search for  meaning is way too 
energy consuming and can't be distracted, derailed, or  debiked by meaningless.
 
my god, I've suddenly realized how shallow I am.
 
keep em coming.

What's the point of saying hello anyway? I suspect one might  answer that 
question with, "It's nice." Well, I don't think it is; I think  it's 
meaningless, empty, and fake.

Personally, I'm already annoyed  by how many people I have to talk to on 
a daily basis. The last thing I  want is a 2 second 'conversation' to 
reassure someone that I am aware of  their presence.
