hand to god, i've never understood the appeal of hanging out. oh you just sit around, except now you have to keep a conversation going?

i remember once in 4th grade my parents forced me to call another kid and schedule a playdate. it was agonizing

with the right people the conversation just flows effortlessly and with others you just do activities together.

This. There are some coworkers I really can't just chat with. Then there ar some we just hit it off and we can chat for hours.

When I used to hang out, we would watch movies or play video games. I mean, we'd chat, too, but it wasn't like a long conversation, usually.
