Everything I need to know about social distancing I learned from M. Night Shyamalan

Social distancing may not be everyone’s personal favorite, but my entire life has led to this.

Don’t get me wrong. I am outgoing. I can be very loud. I even love hosting parties of somewhere between twelve to fourteen people. But I’m still very much an introvert. It just takes me thirteen thousand bajillion trillion times as long to decompress and recoup from things.

However, I’m related by lots of blood to lots outgoing extroverts and have made them watch A LOT of movies with me. Mostly during one of my M. Night Shyamalan-a-thons.

And I have learned SO MANY THINGS about myself and my self’s love of social distance. Now, I pass those savings on to you:
