The "I know were I'm going" comment

I think they see them choosing you as some kind of compliment. It's going to be some big party and they are choosing yours to go to because you are the cool ones. The best thing to do is probably go along with their reality and just blow it off. Although I want to tell them to make sure they bring their daughters and wife. Their reality is so short sighted that they probably have no clue what society could be like after a few days without food and water. These encounters just re-enforce my view of how down hill things could go.

That is probably not too far off from the truth. "Ohh everyone wants me around, why wouldn't you?", "You should be glad that someone like me would think to come to your place in a time of need." I really hate to be so isolationist, but unfortunately it is what it is. I am sure living 1000+ miles away from both sides of the family have made us this way. We have relied on ourselves for so long that we would probably live and die alone and together.

I also agree with clodhopper... OPSEC. But, there are a lot of things that people just key in on. People are really good at noticing that you are not the same as everyone else. OPSEC only goes so far.
