My husband does NOT like that I do those types of things either. I've also been known to say things out loud that most people just wouldn't. It makes everyone feel awkward or makes them think I'm awkward. Except I know exactly what I'm doing and I do it to see how other people will react.
That falls under the "social skills" area.
It's possibly useful in a police interrogation, but unlikely to be useful in a corporate work environment.
Or any normal work environment that requires interactions with supervisors, co-workers, and/or the general public on more than a "never" basis.
