I don't like bumping into people I used to know whilst mildly drunk in pubs. Firstly, I rarely have anything useful to say - if I did they'd be in the category of people I still know rather than people I used to know. Secondly any conversation as is tends to be stupid.
For example, tonight in Brigantes I met an old work colleague in the toilet corridor. Let's call him Simon.
Si: Hello!
Me: Err, hi! Hello! How are you?
Si: Good thanks, how are you?
Me: I'm fine, thanks. How are you. Oh, I've done that already, haven't I? Bye!
Nobody gained anything from this brief exchange except that I realised he'd been sitting on an adjacent table all night.
