I hate words like "social battery". Its a fact that some people can socialise for hours and others get tired very quickly. Personally, its not about energy or battery, but how much you can withstand group-stupidity.
Exactly. Life is too precious to waste with stupid people.
Personally, I could spend hours in intense conversation with a small group of people. Put me in a big loud crowd making small talk and I won't be able to leave soon enough.
Thats been my life. I get along great with small group of people, but having to suffer through a large crowd just makes me crave to write some code or reinstall some servers, lol.
It's a metaphor for what you're describing. That's all.
This entire thread is a bunch of old people saying "kids these days" and shaking their fists in the air.
I am very wary of using terms like social battery etc. Soon there will be a mental disorder "low social battery" and mandatory prescriptions to recharge our batteries lest we become anti-social and before you know - you forgot to say hi to a coworker and you are admitted into psych ward due to "dead social battery syndrome"
I am only half joking.
Every Generation has done that since time immemorial.
They even have preserved Roman and Greek writings of older people complaining about or not understanding younger ones. The old “Back in my day” Trope.
It’s amusing in the sense that the more things change. The More they stay the same. The Young will continue to say and do things that perplex the old.
I'd argue with your comment but my social battery is at less than 10% and I forgot my charger at work.
