That Jim Morrison song gets it all wrong. People are strange when you’re a stranger, but it’s not because they ignore you—it’s when they notice you and smile, that’s when you realize you’re alone out here.

These people are in the same strange town, but they’re not letting the strangeness eat them up and turn them into robots. That’s just you.
