"Hell is other people" - Jean Paul Satre.
That could be true a lot of the time, but Hell is also being without other people.

I'm a simple guy with varied interests.
One time i was at the Borders check-out and the girl stared as me for a sec, and said 'heya, you've got varied taste' as she scanned my book on computer hacking, Howard Stern's Private Parts (the book, not his....) and Whoredom in Kimmage (a book on feminism in the Irish republic).
Well, keeps life interesting, I said.
Certainly, she said with a smile.
