Default 2 types of people....which is more tolerable?

one that often talks bout themselves

the other...always about someone else or something other and it's almost always insignificant

the second

i love conversing about all kinds of random stuff, i hate listening to someone toot their own horn 24/7. i have no problem with someone who wants to always talk about stuff no matter what it is. never know if it will be useful someday h:

besides, i talk all the time about crap

Typically the first person... the more you know about someone, the more ammunition you have against them.

I'm not full of myself at all, but when talking to someone new (aka not a friend/family) I find myself always talking about myself or at least relating something the other person said to myself... almost like I'm trying to one-up them. I can hear myself doing it, but I can't stop it h: I think maybe it's some sort of overcompensation for my lack of natural social skills

Anyhoo, people who talk about random shit are probably less annoying than people who talk about themselves all the time.

Between the two...I'd have to go with the second. I can't stand when someone constantly takes what I say then turns it into a story about them.
