I don't hate people, I hate crowds. I'm an introvert and crowds demand constant awareness of the external environment, too taxing. Just driving through a parking lot puts my nerves on edge worrying about who is going to step in front of me or back out in front of me... and how the fuck am I going to turn my truck a full 90 degrees to park in a tiny parking spot with so little room to turn? It's impossible. Better to stay home. Rabbits are a pest in NZ and often at plague proportions during late Summer. So are stoats and possums, but we've got their numbers down where I live. I don't see possums very often anymore (probably because of my dog) and I've never seen a stoat here. I did see a polecat (wild ferret) once, and my dog saw it too and killed it. The polecat put up quite the fight, but was no match for the GSD.

i kind of like the challenge of being around people or in traffic but i am only able to relax when i'm home alone with only me and my computer being around other people is like a gym workout for the mind coming home is like taking a nice shower afterwards
