Fitzy enjoys telling men he doesnāt know about the size of his cock.
It always seems to threaten them.
Surprising that people would feel threatened by a stranger boasting about his cock size alright.
Itās very hard to unsmell certain things.
Jonathan Swift attempted to kill the word ābanterā 300 years ago.
Prosopagnosia - an inability to recognise the faces of familiar people.
Just heard a women on RTĆ Radio 1 who suffers from this. Fascinating condition. She could be chatting away to you for hours, but walk past you in the street 10 mins later and walk right past you.
The bitch

I wish someone fucking killed it now
If Swift couldnāt do it, I suspect we wonāt.
He should give art foley a call, heās been killing banter here for nearly 10 years.

Sublime.
I suffer mildly from this. Iām really shit at recognising faces. Took a test for that and failed it miserably. Couple of interesting tests where you see photo fit images of people and then have to pick them out of a group of 4 in the next photo.
Things that make you feel old
The lady on with Fanning sounded like she had it bad - she even called it a ādoseā. She described some of the work-arounds sheās developed over the years. For example, meeting a friend for a coffee in town at 3 - sheād need to get there at 2:30 and be sitting reading a paper so the other person would have to come to her. Was kinda funny listening to her talk about her first few dates with the gent that became her husband.
Not sure where that ranks on the Prosopagnosia severity scale. Does it have much of an impact on your day-to-day life @Rocko?
Lolz

It has social impacts that are really frustrating and probably wouldnāt be as magnified if I didnāt have a fear of phone calls. So Iām not good face to face and Iām not good over the phone. Get me online though andā¦ well everyone loves me.
I have long intended having a card to bring with me that I can hand to people when I blank on them. Other than some occasional embarrassment it has no implications. I met my old football manager the other day, lovely guy, know him really well and had to do 5 minutes of chat where he asked me all about my new baby and my health and whatever and I hadnāt a clue who I was talking to but I toughed it out. Only after he left I asked the wife who Iād been chatting to. Sheāll often bail me out when she sees me in trouble. Iād say I seem ignorant in situations like that because I donāt ask anything back, I just speak for as much as I can until the conversation ends.
Thatās just a harmless example. There are times when it gets exposed a bit more awkwardly when the other person figures out Iām blanking on them and calls me on it. But itās probably more annoying when Iām at a wedding or something and will rush away from someone approaching me because I canāt figure them out.
Work should be worse but I cope better for some reason. I guess email saves me from so much.

Itās either Alzheimers or alcohol damage from your twenties. Or just getting old.
