editor's note //
I may come of as a bit shy or a bit of an introvert when I first meet someone, but, especially given a little time to relax, I really love interacting with people. Yes, I love a good chat with strangers. Almost as much as I love watching them.
If I may defend myself ... It's not that I'm mean-spirited in my peering, usually done through the good-old, tried-and-true methods of the casual eavesdrop or the subtle over-the-shoulder glance. I'm not out for spite when I people watch; I'm just really fascinated by people and their stories.
I'll go ahead and fess up. I'm a busybody. A snooper. A pryer. Or, my personal favorite term, borrowed from the Latin for "what now," a quidnunc. My name is Alex and I have a problem: I'm nosy as hell.
A shy kid who had difficulty communicating, I grew up learning through observation. My whole life, I've continued to take a hands-
off approach to many situations, preferring instead to watch from the outside until I feel comfortable joining in. An insecure fascination with observing people I'd never have the guts to actually interact with eventually spiraled into a slightly more sinister desire to know a lot about people without them knowing much about me. Sometimes around my sophomore year, however, I made the decision I wanted to try to change this personality quirk in the fear I may end up hurting others, or myself. Nobody likes a nosy-parker, right?
These days, I really do try to stick to the passive people watching — to keep myself from getting involved in business I don't belong in. But I hope my interest in (and care for) everyday people, and the rich, diverse, riveting stories they have to tell, never goes away.
For better or worse, I know I'm not alone in my guilty pleasure. Check out Anna's story on page 5 to learn about how our ever-changing technological environment — everything from microblogging to location-awareness-based mobile phone applications — are fueling our cultural propensity for people watching by giving us new, even more convenient ways to tap into our inner quidnunc. Here's lookin' at you, kid.
