Escape

One press of a key. That's how easy a person disappears from my desktop. It's satisfying in a way. Knowing that I can end any conversation, no matter how prematurely, with a single stroke of the pinky. The fun part? I do this in real life as well. There's an obvious "esc" key to any conversation. Like when a person tries to convert me to a religion, all I have to do is wait for them to mention "god" and bluntly ask "I'm sorry. Who?" -- I love the anger in their eyes when I do that. Or when a beggar ask me for money, all I have to do is look them in the eye and say "No". I actually like to do that. Let people know if I can't quite tend to their needs right then and there. It saves me a lot of headaches and focus, and saves them a lot of false hope. Win-win. It also sends out the impression that I'm a sincere being, so it's like a triple win.
