Reminder: Your Quirks Are Your Superpower
Those things you get teased about are the very things your audience will relate to most.
Your quirks are not things to hide — they’re the show. That awkward way you tell a story? The tangent you go on that somehow lands back on-topic? The weird pause before a punchline? Those are your fingerprints. Don’t sand them off trying to sound like everyone else. That’s like Photoshopping the laugh lines out of your face. You think it’s improvement; the rest of us think it’s creepy.

Topic of the Day
Topic 1: If we called your spouse right now, what would be the one thing we could say to them that would instantly start an argument?
The Situation
I work in a big office building with a parking lot for several buildings. Yesterday, I parked as usual and was walking toward the entrance. Then I noticed two young women standing in front of their car with the hood open. It looked like they were trying to figure out what was wrong with their car.
I am pretty good with car maintenance, so I walked over and asked if they needed some help. One of them said, “No, we’re good here.” So I offered to give them my number and said to text me if they ran into problems and I’d be glad to help. They said, “No, thanks,” and I went on to work.
Apparently, one of them followed me to find out where I was working and filed a complaint with HR that I was trying to hit on them and being creepy, because I got hauled into an official meeting.
It worked out okay, but now I have a note in my personnel file. I don’t need any help with this situation, but I’m curious: What should I have done in that moment? I was just trying to be nice. Do women want help or do they automatically assume the worst? Is it better to just ignore situations where I could help?
