My DH is studiously avoided at any work related event because he's one of the lesser spotted, doesn't like sport, guys. The conversation usually goes like this:
Random Male "So Mr Cadastre, how about that team then?"
DH - "I don't like soccer sorry"
Random Male slightly surprised "Oh so you're a rugby man then?"
DH - "No I don't like sport at all"
Random Male starts edging away looking at DH like he's a freak.
So what would they talk about at the water cooler? I'm my job it's this match this and I got tickets for that game. What would they say to each other?? Weather chit chat? Tool talk? Imagine the uncomfortable silence as two males with no sports in common try to share a small space?!
