“POKSI (Physically Okay but Socially Inept)”
“Do you have some kind of syndrome that makes you act this way, or are you just a rude, socially inept asshole?”
“Should I be offended? (Livia)Please don’t be. I pride myself on being socially inept. But the only people I ever intentionally offend are my bevy of brothers. And speaking of, where’s Big Bad Angry One? (Zarina)”

Slide me between two strangers at any light-hearted jamboree and I'll either rock awkwardly and silently on my heels, or come out with a stone-cold conversation-killer like, "This room's quite rectangular, isn't it?" I glide through the social whirl with all the elegance of a dog in high heels”

“The fundamental concept in social science is Power, in the same sense in which Energy is the fundamental concept in physics.”
