I suck at conversation, as well. I try to avoid talking with my mic when I can, while playing games. In the real world, I just choose not to speak sometimes. Then when people ask me, "Oh come on, you can talk can't you?" I look at them and tell them politely, "Yes, I can. But I choose/Don't not to." And usually get the god damned hint and shut up. But some times they're *** holes about it
